You Can Run But You Can't Hide My Contractual Wife novel Chapter 142

“William?” Dr. Zimmer was surprised to see her only grandson's sudden appearance in the Zimmer family's manor.

William Zimmer didn’t reply instead he smiled as he strode forward and hugged his grandma.

“Oh. You didn’t know how happy I am to see you, my William.” Dr. Zimmer uttered with full of love and longingness in her tone.

“Me too grandma. Me too.” William replied while hugging her.

“Wait. Are you staying here for good? How’s everything?” Dr. Zimmer was curious but sparks in her eyes were visible as she was expecting to hear good news from William.

“Yes. I will stay here for good and don’t worry, everything’s fine.” William smiled reassuring Dr. Zimmer.

“Did you take all the medicines I gave you? And follow all my advice well?” She asked wanting to assure that her grandson was already doing well.

“Don’t worry Dr. Zimmer. I’m always good at following orders and advice especially yours because you’re the best doctor in the world.” William held his grandma’s shoulders and smiled at her with a wink.

“Come on, I will ask everyone to prepare a feast to celebrate your coming.” Dr. Zimmer excitedly announced.

Seeing her playful handsome grandson, William was finally back!

While Bill was having a lunch meeting in a grand restaurant, he received a call.

“Yes.” He answered with a stern voice.

“Sir, the patient escaped.” One of his bodyguards who was guarding Arabella in the hospital reported.

“Okay.” Bill’s word was calm inside the VIP room. His business partners and clients’ ears were all on him but never dared to look at him and showed curiosities. Bill was always calm and had total control of himself whenever in a meeting. He always stood out with elegance and a calm demeanor but intimidating to many.

“Someone helped her. The patient gave us coffee then the next thing happened, we all woke up in her room. We already searched the whole hospital but there’s no trace inside her. She had left.” The bodyguard explained with his hand uncontrollably shaking while holding his phone. He served his Boss for so many years, this the only time he disappointed him but he was also shocked by his boss' tone. He wasn't angry.

‘Such stubborn!’ Bill remarked silently as he hung up the phone.

The bodyguard felt relieved that his boss didn’t scold them and fire them. He still couldn’t believe that a girl had escaped from their watch.

Inside the car,

“Damien, thank you very much for helping me.” From the bottom of her heart, Arabella was very thankful for him despite every pain he got from her. She was still feeling guilty about it but she could only rely on Damien to help her get out of the hospital.

“Do not mention it. You know I am always here voluntarily to be always your beck and call.” Damien replied looking her eyes sincerely.

“I am just really thankful to have a good friend like you.” Arabella gave him her sweetest smile.

“Hmmm… A friend…” Damien’s smile diminished in an instant. Arabella became a bit worried. Her smile became stiff.

“A friend… A good friend indeed.” Damien continued his words and gave her a smile to lighten up the atmosphere that was almost getting awkward.

Arabella then chuckled hearing Damien. He also laughed with her.

They reached the apartment but her thoughts were still in mess.

Surprisingly, she found her mobile phone inside her bedside drawer before they escaped from the hospital.

She knew that Bill would not stop pestering her. So, she had to make a plan quickly.

“Mommy!” Adam was so surprised and happy seeing his mom again as she entered the house in a wheelchair.

“Adam,” Arabella muttered as he hugged him so tight.

“What happened to you mom?” Adam asked worriedly.

“No worries. I just tripped.” She released a sweet smile to appease Adam.

“Dinner is ready,” Lira announced from the kitchen.

“Lira?” Happy to see her, Arabella called her name with a wide smile.

Lira was speechless seeing Arabella again. She strode forward and hugged her previous boss.

“It’s so nice to see you again and thank you for taking care of Adam.” Arabella hugged Lira showing her utmost gratitude to her.

“Ms. J, that’s nothing. You know I love this family.” Lira replied kindly.

For the first time again, they eat their dinner together just like before when they were in city Y until they heard a loud knock on the door.

Arabella was suddenly alerted as they were not expecting any guests at this hour.

Could it be him?

Arabella became alerted.

“Lira, take Adam to his room first,” Damien ordered quickly.

“What happened, mom?” Adam felt the intensity of the situation. He knew something wasn’t right.

“Adam, please follow Uncle Adam. I will explain it to you later.” Arabella said while feeling her heart was beating so fast as she looked at Adam straight his eyes begging.

“Okay, mom.” Without any hesitation, Adam replied obediently. Lira was also puzzled but still accompanied Adam to his room.

Damien looked at the door and Arabella while the latter was also looking at him.

“Stay here,” Damien ordered as he quickly strode in the direction of the door. He looked at the peephole first and heaved a sigh of relief seeing a familiar face outside.

“Who is it?” Arabella asked almost whispering.

“Your friend,” Damien answered as he quickly opened the door.

Arabella frowned.

Her friend?
