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.

“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

Delyth fumed, but she had no other choice but to leave.

Watching her leave, Zenith wasn't sure if she had done it right or not. But what she said was very true.

Delyth might appear close to her boss, but Ryan never allowed her to cross a line with him. So, considering that, it was unwise to leave the two together. Especially when Ryan was not in the right state.

She re-entered the room to check on him. Seeing him sleeping on the bed, she sighed silently in her heart.

She had planned to leave him in the room and leave. But now, sensing the ulterior motives of certain someone, she decided it was better to guard him for a little time longer.

Not the right thing to do.
