Breaking Free, Loving Again -The Flash Marriage with Mr. CEO novel Chapter 506

Catrin halted when she heard Idris's voice. She turned to look, and Idris was there, standing at the door of her office.

His breathing seemed uneven, and his gaze was furious.

"Did you announce we are adopting?" he asked again, this time rephrasing his words.

He has been out for something and hadn't realized it until someone mentioned it to him. He was clueless, but for the first time, he didn't feel surprised.

His gaze darted between the two people in the room, pausing at Emily.

Emily smiled, but that was never returned. Instead, under his hostile gaze like that, she felt a shiver run down her spine.

Thai was her uncle —one she always thought was easy to talk with. But somehow, today, he didn't look the same.

"Uncle, I —"

"Catrin!" Idris didn't let her speak. Turning back to Catrin, he asked, "You haven't yet replied. Did you give any such words to the media?"

"What do you expect me to say, Idris?" Catrin's voice came unapologetic. "Did your daughter leave me any option?"

"She didn't leave you any option?" Idris voice raised in a dangerous octave. "What options do you think she would have left to make you to realize how wrong you have been?"

"I am not wrong, Idris. She is," Catrin gritted. "She is wrong to sever the ties with her own family and walk away like that. It's her. I am just letting her see the consequence of taking the decision on an impulse. So, that the next time when it happens, she knows how to act."

Idris couldn't hold back from chuckling. "On an impulse?" he laughed. "You still think it was on impulse, Catrin. If you think so, I really pity you because you might not ever see that Arwen never acted on impulse. It was us … or I might say, you, who pushed her little by little to act like this … to give us up completely. It was never sudden … never on an impulse."

"Idris, are you saying, I am responsible for all this?" Catrin was on the verge of collapse internally. And Idris's words were only further pushing her. _{freeweɓnovel.cѳm}

Can't she expect him to understand her and her reasons?

She was doing all this to bring their daughter back?

Why was he not seeing it?

Idris shook his head. "I am no longer saying anything, Catrin. I have long given up on making you see the right. Because now even if you realize everything, it will change nothing."

He had seen the finality in the eyes of Arwen yesterday.

When she left, she left forever.

Catrin might not have notice it, but he did.

Catrin was about to speak. But before she could, Idris spoke, not giving her the chance. "We aren't adopting anyone. I don't agree to it." His gaze darted to look at Emily with clear intention.

Emily was caught off guard. Idris was her uncle, and out of all, she least though he would object it.

She wanted to retort, but couldn't.

"Idris, I have made this decision for a reason," Catrin said, sounding offended.

But Idris remained nonchalant. Looking at her, he simply said, "And I have given you my decision. I won't change it no matter what your reason is."

"Idris —"

"I still have things to do." With that, he turned and left.

Watching him leave, Catrin gritted.
