Breaking Free, Loving Again -The Flash Marriage with Mr. CEO-Chapter 419: What will you do?

Grabbing her phone, Arwen dialled Aiden's number straight.

The rings went through but the call didn't connect.

Usually, whenever she had called him, just after a few rings, the call would always be answered. However, this time no one answered.

Arwen's brows furrowed and she pulled the phone back to check. And then she noticed the time. It was past midnight.

"He must have been asleep by now," she muttered to herself before pressing her lips in a thin lime. "What was I even thinking? It's so late at night and he needs rest after a hectic day."

With that thought, she kept the phone down and stared back at the laptop, recalling what she was calling him for.

She wanted to know if they had some history together that she had forgotten. But then she realized that asking wouldn't have helped her.

After all, it was not like she was asking him this for the first time. She had even asked him before, but he clearly mentioned that they never shared any history.

Could she be misunderstanding anything?

As she was about to reconsider her suspicion, she heard her phone ring.

When she checked, it was Aiden's number. She paused for a second, but then quickly reacted taking the call.

"Hello," she said, slightly awkward. "Did I wake you up? Sorry, I should have noted the time."

She realized when it came to him, she never thought enough. And it was wrong. No matter how comfortable she was around him, she was his wife and when it came to him, she should be extra sensitive. It was her responsibility to take care of him, the same as he did here.

"Hello, Aiden. You still there?"

She asked when even after a moment she didn't hear him respond.

However, just when she thought that the call was disconnected, she heard a ding of notification.

When she pulled the phone away to check, it was a video switch request from his side. Without taking another second to consider, she accepted and soon the screen displayed the video from his side.

At first, Arwen didn't realize what it was but soon her face flushed red and she realized that what she was greeted with was nothing but his firm chest muscles.

"You —" she closed her eyes out of shyness. "What are you doing? Why aren't you wearing your clothes?"

Aiden stepped back from the camera and stared at her, confused. "I am not naked," he said, and it was only then Arwen opened her eyes to check.

He was standing now at a distance, wrapped in a neat bathrobe. His hair was wet and he was drying it off with the towel. His chest was half covered and half on display.

Although his body was covered, still somehow to Arwen, it was giving a sinful temptation —one that was almost making her drool at the scene. Especially, given how loosely the robe was tied around his waist.

"Seems like my absence is making you feel depraved."

Aiden's voice jolted Arwen out of her trance and she looked up at him in confusion.

Given the focus with which she had been staring at him earlier, it was not hard to tell that she hadn't heard what he had spoken.

Sensing it well, Aiden repeated. "I said, with me not around for so long, you must be feeling depraved."

"Who is feeling depraved? You are clearly seducing me," Arwen defended immediately.

Would she be reacting like this if he would have appeared half-naked?

It was his fault.

How could he even blame her?

Just as she thought she defended her pretty nicely, she heard him ask.

"So did you seduce successfully?" a slow smirk played over his lips as she meaningfully stared at her as if truly waiting to hear her response.

Arwen's complexion flushed a shade darker. "You —who would be get seduced by only checking out your half-naked body? Definitely not me! I am not seduced. I am not."

"Oh, you want me to reveal more?"

Before she could even react to that, she already saw his hand move to the sash, ready to undo it.

"You —stop right there!" she almost screamed, covering her eyes.

Aiden saw her like that and almost burst into laughter. "What are you getting shy for? It's not like you haven't seen me naked before. You have felt every inch of me and now you are acting shy. Don't you feel you are too late to feel shy now?"

Although they had long completed every ritual between them, still how could it still be the same as what he was doing right now?

Her eyes grew wide when she saw him almost pulling on it. "Wait!" she yelled, ready to press the disconnect button. "If you don't stop it now, I will hang up the call right away!"

Aiden didn't hold any longer. Bursting into laughter, he sat down in the seat across from her and shook his head. "I wasn't sleeping. I came back late and when you called, I was taking a shower."

Arwen was able to guess it when she saw him like that. It was just that she had gotten engrossed in his tease. "Why did you come back late? Was the day hectic?"

He shook his head. "It's no longer hectic. Everything is settled. I will be returning soon, maybe in a day or two."

That was pleasant news that Arwen had been waiting to hear for a long time.

So, the moment she heard him, her gaze brightened up. She might not have realized, but Aiden did very clearly.

His heart warmed at the thought of her waiting for him back at him. His lips curled at the corners. "And you still say that you don't miss me?"

"Huh?" Arwen asked, slightly confused. "Who said I don't miss you?"

"You do?"

"Of course. If I don't miss you, who else will I miss? Staying there without me around, did you forget that you are my husband and I am your wife?"

Aiden didn't forget but he never thought Arwen to voice it out like that either. So, when she said that, he halted at her words."

"What?" she asked when found him staring at her simply. "Don't tell me you haven't missed me. If I miss you and you don't, it will be so unfair."

"I miss you too. How can I be unfair to you?" he admitted, and to be honest, Arwen didn't need him to admit. She knew he could never be unfair to her.

But what if she had been unfair to him?

Clearing her throat, she nonchalantly asked, "Fine, I believe that you won't treat me unfairly. But what if someday, I treat you like that. Then, what will you do?"
