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.

“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.”

“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.

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

"Are you sure, Dr. Cred that you don't want to reconsider it?" Though Jason's words came soft and polite, there was a subtle warning laced in his tone that was unmistakable. It was as if he was giving a chance to the old man to reconsider things well.

Dr. Cred didn't miss that subtle hint. But he chose to take it seriously. Not because he wanted to offend Jason, but because he wanted to save the name of his hospital. He was serious when he said that he was the Dean and couldn't put the hospital at risk by exposing the darkest past of the hospital's history.

"Dr. Clark, sorry, but that's the only thing I can't help you with. Being the dean here, I can't put my hospital at risk," Dr. Cred said.

Jason smiled, nodding. "I understand your helplessness, Dr. Cred," he said, but then interjected his words further. "But I think you misunderstood my intention over here."

Don't like repeating myself.
