You Can Run But You Can't Hide My Contractual Wife novel Chapter 116

6 years ago, she jumped on the plane with her heart shattered into million pieces.

Holding a slim chance to survive, she didn’t know how to live again but she refused to give up.

For her baby, she would live.

She would live again.

And Damien found her.

When she was hopeless and almost lifeless, Damien saved her.

He lifted her up and never left her side.

He slowly picked up her shattered pieces and tried to put them back again even if he bleeds.

She knew Damien would keep trying to fix her heart even if it takes a lifetime.

Realizing everything, she was sure of her decision now.

Damien deserved her love.

“This is for you.” Damien stopped the car in front of her house. He reached a small box to her.

With a puzzled expression, Arabella tilted her head to the side.

“What’s this?” She asked with a bright smile.

“Hmmm… A gift?” Damien replied with a pleasant expression.

Arabella frowned.

“A gift on our first day?” She laughed softly. “Aren’t gifts for anniversaries only?” She joked. That’s what she knew.

“Well… I just kinda woke up like a generous person today. So, I bought you a gift.” He bluffed.

“Okay, thank you very much, my generous boyfriend.” Her eyes sparkled when she joked with him.

“What? What did you call me? Can you say it again?” Damien got so excited hearing her.

“Oh no! I didn’t say anything.” Arabella laughed softly. She was teasing Damien.

“Please….” He was pleading cutely. Damien was good-looking but a bit aloof but she didn’t know he had a cute childish side.

“I didn’t know you look cuter than Adam when you beg. Hahaha.” She really couldn’t stop teasing him. He seemed changed over a night. But she like the cute child-like Damien. She found him funny and cool.

“Okay… Stop laughing at me now. I should have recorded it! Please open the box.” Damien sounded bubbly with a sweet smile.

Arabella shook the box first before opening and she tilted her head towards it to hear what’s inside the box.

Damien found her cute too when she’s acting childish. He had never seen her laughed repetitively.

With all curiosity and a little excitement, Arabella slowly loosened the silver ribbon and opened the small box.

Then her eyes widened seeing a shimmering round thing in the box.

It’s a ring.

Damien then got it, held her hand, and kissed it tenderly. Arabella suddenly felt awkward but quickly regained her cool. She needed to get used to this thing with Damien as they were in a relationship now.

“Arabella, this is my love for you. Wear my love wherever you go. As I promised you, I will never leave you and Adam.” Damien expressed wholeheartedly.

The awkwardness was there but with Damien’s sincerity, she appreciated his sweetness. She didn’t notice it when they were just friends and neighbors. He helped her a lot and he never took advantage of her or ask something to his advantage.

After his words, he put the ring to her delicate finger.

It was beautiful.

“Promise me that you will never take it off, Will you?” Damien’s eyes were pleading and serious.

She didn’t know what to reply. The sincerity of his voice made her feel guilty. A pang of guilt that wouldn’t die inside her. She had to try her best to love Damien as to how much he loved her otherwise it would be unfair for him.

“I promise.” The words came out without any backbone. She hated it but it’s the only thing she could do to appease him.

Hearing her answer, Damien kissed her hand again and went out of the car to open her door then, he escorted her to her house.

“It’s getting late. Good night. Can I join you for breakfast?” This was the only time Damien had asked her permission. He always sneaked in her house almost every breakfast. He’s very lazy to cook his breakfast as he had no one to share.

“Why do I feel weird when you are asking that? Hehehe…” She couldn’t help but let go of a soft laugh.

“Alright.” He laughed as well. “You win!” Damien raised his two hands to surrender the argument.

“Have you decided to tell Adam about us?” Then his expression had become serious.

“Yes. Let’s tell them tomorrow at breakfast.” She was confident that Adam would be happy with her decision. In his school, Damien was his father. So, there’s no reason that Adam would oppose their relationship.

Damien’s smile faded a bit and she saw it but she tried not to pick on him. He may be worried about Adam’s expression.

“Are you okay?” She asked immediately.

“Ah… Yeah. Let’s announce it tomorrow then.” His smile was back again. “Goodnight!” Then he added.

The night ended with a tight hug and a soft kiss on her forehead.

Arabella went to check on Adam. He was already sleeping when someone knocked on the door.

“May I come in?” Lira asked.

“Yes please.” She frowned wondering what’s Lira’s matter at 10 p.m.

“Hmmm…Ms. J, I am going out tonight.” Lira sneaked inside the room quickly wearing a sexy red mini dress.
