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.

Did you leave her to die?

Beca stared at her son, as if trying to refuse to believe something she had heard. But the way her brows knitted together made it clear she was struggling to comprehend the things. 

Ryan, on the other hand, was growing increasingly uncomfortable. He had expected her to be there, but not seeing her around now filled him with unease. Her words from earlier again came echoing in his mind, refusing to leave. 

"Mom, I asked you something. Tell me where Arwen is. You didn't allow her leave, did you?" Ryan asked again, this time with more desperation in his tone that he was trying hard to mask behind his anger. 

Beca, however, wasn't surprised by his tone. From the day Arwen broke off the engagement, she knew a day like this would come —when her son would finally begin to realize what he had lost. But even though she had seen it coming, nothing could have prepared her for it.
