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

She gave up her dream of shining on the ballerina stage —for him. She sacrificed her self-respect —for him. She forgot her true identity —for him. But even after all that, she couldn’t compare to the woman who held Ryan’s heart. Arwen Quinn, heiress of prestigious Quinn family, realized too late that no matter what she did, she would never win Ryan’s love. The future that awaited her was a life trapped in endless misery of a loveless marriage. So, decisively, she ends their relationship and walks away. What she didn’t expect was that in breaking free from Ryan, she had opened the door for Aiden to enter her life — a chance that he had been waiting for. Aiden Winslow, an enigmatic CEO isn’t just mysterious —he is determined, and won’t allow to take Arwen away from him again. ____ Excerpt: Aiden narrowed his eyes, “Are you sure about this?” “If I wasn’t sure, I wouldn’t have asked,” Arwen replied coolly. “Stop dawdling. If you’re unwilling, I’ll find someone else who can get the marriage certificates today.” His expression darkened as he pulled her close. “Once offered to me, it’s mine alone.” Unfazed, Arwen asked, “So, do you accept? If yes, we’ll get the certificates now.” “On one condition,” he said. “I don’t do contract marriages. The woman I marry will be the woman I share my bed with. If you agree, then we’ll—” “Not a problem. Let’s go,” Arwen said without letting him finish, pulling him into the Civil Marriage Bureau.

Arwen's eyes moved back to the tablet, reading the headline: 'No Marriage Arrangement Between the Quinns and Fosters —The Wildest Assumption Yet?' Her gaze remained unfazed, and after a brief pause, she nodded casually, looking up at her mother. 

"Didn't I tell you more than once before that Ryan and I have broken up?" she said. Her tone was calm but edged with a hint of frustration. For once, she wanted her mother to notice her and ask her about her reasons —not to interrogate her or demean her, but out of true concern. But it seemed like it was some luxury that she could afford in this life. Not even for a fraction of a second. "Why are you acting like you had no idea, Mom? Or was it that you never cared enough to think about what I said?"
