Breaking Free, Loving Again -The Flash Marriage with Mr. CEO novel Chapter 792

Chapter 792: Taste of the same medicine.

Idris didn’t reply. He just stood there letting the guilt settle inside him.

"Idris, stop him. Don’t let him take our daughter away like this." Catrin forced, thrashing a little to break free from the hold of the man who held her in place. "She wouldn’t be safe with him. See what he had done to her. He had brutally chopped off someone’s fingers and someone’s tongue. Are we letting such a man take our daughter away? She won’t be safe with him. She —"

"Had she been safe with us?" Idris asked her without letting her finish. His tone was colder than ever. "With me? With you?"

Catrin was taken aback. She paused at the way he looked at her. With pure hatred. with true disdain. "Idris, we ... are her parents. We would never hurt her. How could you compare us to him? He ..."

"We are her parents," Idris said, smiling, but that little curve of his lips didn’t carry any warmth; rather, it held his extreme disappointment. "But she hadn’t even been safe with us. Neither before nor today."

"Idris!"

"Catrin, why?" Idris didn’t acknowledge her hiss. "Why did you do this? She was our daughter. How could you do something like that to her?"

"I did it for here, Idris. I ... I just wanted to make her understand and follow what I decided for her. After all, all my plans and decisions were always for her good. It was for her —"

"Shut up!" Idris snapped sharply. "Don’t feign your motives behind the pretence of your love, Catrin. You never loved her. Because if you had, then you would have thought a thousand times and still would have dared to do it for real." 𝐟𝕣𝗲𝕖𝕨𝗲𝐛𝗻𝗼𝐯𝗲𝚕.𝗰𝚘𝐦

Catrin couldn’t defend herself. She just stared at Idris with tears in her eyes. "I know ... I know I did something really wrong. But I understood, Idris. I understood, and that’s why I wanted to make up to her. I wanted to —"

"Make up to her?" Idris repeated, his words frigid enough to pierce through the souls. "Like this? But drugging her again? By pushing her into danger again, even knowing that it could take her life? From where did you get such confidence? Or was it just that you simply didn’t care?"

Catrin’s brows furrowed in a frown. "How can I not care, Idris? I am her mother. Of course, I care. I was just seeing the bigger picture. The picture where we had our daughter was like we had her before. She would be back to our side and —"

"After what you did, you still expect to be by my side?" Idris scoffed, and that only made Catrin frown deeper. "Catrin, do you even hear what you are saying. We are her parents. You were her mother. Do you need to make her someone else before loving her the way she deserves, since always?"

"Idris!"

"Don’t!" Idris raised his hand, stopping her. "Don’t reason your selfishness now. You didn’t deserve to be her mother. Never. It was Arwen’s misfortune that she didn’t get the parents she deserved. Her mother was never capable of being a mother, and her father ... heh!" he scoffed at himself, shaking his head in regret. "Even I wasn’t any better. I let her suffer even being around her."

He couldn’t explain what he was feeling inside at that moment, but it was deep regret. One he would never be able to unburden himself from. He was her father, yet he was never there to protect her.

His feet moved as he turned to walk out.

Catrin frowned when he saw him walking out without her. "Idris!" She called after him, "... you are leaving me here. Take me with you. I want to see Arwen."

Idris paused briefly in his steps, turning to look over his shoulder. His words were devoid of any emotion ... completely indifferent. "You don’t deserve to come with me, Catrin. Not after what you dared to do today."

Catrin was taken aback. "Idris, you can’t be serious. You can let that man take our daughter away, even knowing that he didn’t think twice before making people brutally bleed around him. But you can’t take me to Arwen. How can you be so ridiculous?"

"I am ridiculous?" Idris turned on his heels to look back at her. "Catrin, open your eyes and see once again, the man that Arwen chose for herself is not just anyone. He is a fearless one who doesn’t care who stands in front of him. As long as it’s for Arwen, he is willing to destroy anyone and everyone who tries to harm her. And what happened today here was just live evidence for you to see. But don’t worry, it’s not over yet for you. You have yet to experience it now. And for that, you need to stay here."
