Breaking Free, Loving Again -The Flash Marriage with Mr. CEO novel Chapter 673

Chapter 673: Once the evening begins, nothing could be undone.

Even though she said it like that, something in her words made Aiden feel unconvinced. He felt like she was playing with her words to make him believe something.

Could she be ...?

Before the doubt could strike him, she intervened, "Oh yes, I almost forgot what I called you for." She, then, smoothly switched the subject and said, "I called you to confirm the arrangement of the evening today. Will you be coming to pick me up? Or, —"

"I will be there, Moon," he confirmed.

Arwen smiled and hummed. "Fine, then be on time. Don’t make me wait for long. I have no plans of staying at the party for long."

"I will be on time. Just come out when you are done," he affirmed, and his words made Arwen blink.

"What do you mean by that?" she asked. "Don’t tell me you are going to wait outside from the start till the end?"

He didn’t respond immediately, but his silence was enough of a confirmation.

Arwen pursed her lips and refuted the idea, "Aiden, you don’t have to do that. It would be uncomfortable for you and —"

"Moon," he intervened in smoothly, his voice holding the patience he has always had around her. "I have every right to do that. I have every right to be there for you when you need me around."

Her breath hitched. She wanted to refuse him, but how could she when he put it like that?

"Fine, then, wait for me. I will not take long." She, anyway, wasn’t planning to stay for long. And with him, waiting out, she would have a stronger reason to leave as early as possible.

They talked for a bit more, and then, saying that she was going to get ready for the evening, she hung up the call.

Once disconnected, Arwen stared out of the window, and Aiden’s previous words rang back from earlier.

I set the trap to capture something that I have long craved. I lied and played dark just so that I could succeed in getting what I couldn’t bear to lose.

A smile lifted the corner of her lips as she shook her head. She knew it. After all, in the world they lived in, such strong coincidences couldn’t just be mere coincidences.

If they are, then they are nothing but well-crafted traps laid out with strong intent.

Same as one set for her to step in.

A knock at the door made her turn to check.

"Madam, the people you invited are here," Mr. Jones came to inform.

Arwen turned to glance at the time once and then nodded. "Please ask them to wait for me. I will be there soon."

Mr. Jones nodded at her and then turned to leave. 𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂

Arwen waited for him to walk away, and then she walked to her closet to get out something she had plans on wearing tonight.
