Breaking Free, Loving Again -The Flash Marriage with Mr. CEO novel Chapter 553

Arwen watched Aiden as he led her into another brand store. She wanted to laugh, but she held it in to not give away the fun she was having with him. Even though she hadn't bought anything yet, she wasn't upset about it.

In her busy schedule, she hardly gets time to shop. It was good to have someone who could manage this for you, keeping in mind your style and preference. And she wasn't like other socialites whose days would get spent thinking about what she would wear the next day.

As long as the outfit matches her comfort and style and is favourable to the weather, she will wear it and go out.

And recently, all the clothes she wore were according to her comfort preferences. They are either customized or from well-known brands that she has previously liked.

If it were Mr. Jones who was taking care of it, she would thank him properly after getting back home.

"Are we entering this store now?" she asked when they finally stopped at a stop.

Aiden gazed at the brand name and nodded, "Let's go and see if there is anything here that you like."

Arwen also glanced to check the brand name and slowly pursed her lips. "I have never tried this brand before. Are you sure, we are going in?"

He nodded.

And she simply gave him a long stare before agreeing. "Okay, then let's go in and see."

She was liking this role of grumpy wife, especially after seeing him working hard to coax her back to a better mood.

Was he really that doting to her? Or had he truly not realized that she was just playing with him and not exactly upset with him?

As they entered the store, a store assistant came forward to assist them.

"Sir, ma'am, good afternoon. How may I assist you?" Her eyes darted to look at Aiden, turning warm at his handsome look.

Arwen noticed it, and she followed her line of sight before stepping forward to obstruct it smoothly. "You can start by showing us your couple collection."

Although her words came softly and kindly, the meaning behind them was not masked.

The store assistant was instantly embarrassed. Looking away, she quickly looked down and bit her lip. "Ma'am, please come this way." With that, she turned and walked in a particular direction in the store.

Arwen watched her but didn't immediately follow.

"We are looking for a couple outfits?"

She heard him close to her ears, and when she turned to look, their proximity made her breath hitch. Their lips were mere inches apart. "You … what are you doing?"

She asked, her face turning red. She didn't move, but stayed.

"I am just asking you if we are shopping couple outfits?" he then pulled away as if he didn't realize what he did. "You just asked her, so I thought to clarify it with you."

"Hello, good afternoon, ma'am," another store assistant stepped in to greet Emily when she saw her walking in. "Are you looking for something particular?"

Emily didn't turn to gaze at her. Her eyes simply followed Arwen's silhouette that was now disappearing at a distance. "Yes, take me to that corner of your store," she hurriedly said, pointing to the other side of the store.

The store assistant was confused. She turned to look briefly in the direction and then looked back at Emily to ask, "Ma'am, that corner of our store is dedicated to couples. Are you here to shop with your boyfriend?"

"Couples?" Emily asked, frowning.

The store assistant nodded. "Yes, ma'am. Our brand has a separate collection for couples. Even if you haven't brought your boyfriend today, you can still check our collections. I am sure you will find something that you will like."

Before Emily could say anything, her friend spoke, "But Emily, you are single. You don't have a boyfriend."

"Yes, I remember you once had a crush on Ryan Foster, but he never looked your way and later got engaged to your cousin."

The store assistant felt awkward, but she kept her politeness in check. She didn't interrupt the ladies; rather waited for them to decide.

However, Emily still felt embarrassed. Gritting, she said, "Shut up, you two. Who asked for your advice?"

"We … we were just —"

"Shut up, I said," she warned and then looking at the store assistant, she said, "I would like to check your brand collection for couples. Escort me there."
