You Can Run But You Can't Hide My Contractual Wife novel Chapter 147

Earlier,

“Mom, you gotta help me” Trishia was crying on the phone seeking pity from Bill’s mom.

“Shhh… calm down. Sooner my son will realize that you are the one for him.” As expected, Trishia got Kelly’s sympathy.

“But mom, that woman was a scheming one. I am afraid that Bill would fall into her trap.” Trishia replied with a pitying tone.

“My good reputation was already ruined but for Bill, it doesn’t matter to me. I am willing to give up my career for him.” Trishia added emphasizing her every word. She wanted to plant in Kelly's mind that she loved her son very much and would do everything for him.

Hearing Trishia, Kelly’s heart was successfully captured.

“Bill had a son with her. Are you willing to accept it?” Kelly directly told her and she was hoping for a positive reply from Trishia. There's no use in hiding Bill's personal matter as Trishia was his fiancee. She should know all about her son.

On the other line, Trishia almost dropped her phone. She was shocked for a while. It was a surprise to her but a bad surprise. She was angry at the same time threatened by the news.

“Trishia are you there?” Kelly asked worriedly.

Trishia regained her senses. “I can!... I can be Bill’s wife and at the same time be his son’s mother.” She quickly answered scared losing her opportunity and help from Kelly but at the back of her mind, she could not accept Arabella's son let alone take care of him.

“That’s good to hear Trishia.” Kelly was pacified. “Now, let’s go and talk to my son.” She added with full of compassion in her voice.

“See you mom.” Trishia’s vigor was back after hearing Kelly. She was excited to see Bill again.

When they came inside his office, her excitement had turned into her great nightmare. She wasn’t expecting an intimate scene would welcome them. Bill was kissing and embracing Arabella passionately. Trishia wanted to explode but she held it as she could not ruin her lovable and sweet reputation in front of Bill and Kelly. She wanted to drag Arabella’s hair and pushed her from the highest floor of the building. She wanted to humiliate her in front of the big crowd then after, throw her into the ocean that no one can find her body. Her identity would be erased and be forgotten. That would only satisfy her anger at that time.

“Let me go!” Arabella snatched back her arm but Bill’s grip was stronger than her.

“I thought you want to see your son,” Bill replied looking into her eyes.

Hearing about her son, Arabella gained her calm then Bill took off his hand on her wrist. Inside the elevator, she looked at the man and saw his cheek was still red due to his mom’s slap. She wasn’t expected that he would save her in front of his mom.

“Why did you do that?” She asked as she didn’t want to feel guilty. She didn’t want him to save her and owed him.

Bill didn’t answer. He didn’t move nor change his expression.

Without his reply, she kept her silence. Then the air became freezing by the two cold hearts inside. They reached the parking lot. Without forcing her, she chased his long strides. This time, she was afraid that he would leave her.

Bill sat directly in the driver’s seat and Arabella followed in the passenger’s seat. He started the engine and drove away. Inside, there was no talking. Only their breathing could be heard. Bill’s eyes were seriously focused on the road. Arabella had only one person in mind, Adam. She already made a plan. After seeing Adam, they would escape from him.

She never wanted him to be part of their life.

They didn’t need him.

The silence in the car was disturbed when Arabella’s phone rang.

It was Damien. She forgot him. She knew he was worried about her now as they agreed to update each other. He was also finding Adam but he didn’t know that she went for Bill as she knew he would not agree to her.

“Damien.” She answered quickly.

Hearing his name, Bill’s head moved. He looked at her but Arabella was unaffected as she averted her gaze outside and continued talking to Damien.

“Where are you?” Damien worriedly asked.

“I already found Adam. Sorry for the late update.” She was guilty of not remembering the people who helped her to find Adam due to some surprises she went through earlier and still she had to be with the person who kidnapped her son.

“What great news! Is he okay? Where are you guys now? I will pick you up.” Damien’s tone was satisfied and excited.

Arabella could not find her words. They seemed to be stuck in her throat.

“Don’t worry. We will go home fast just wait for us there.” After gathering her wits, she managed to answer him. Her eyes were fixated outside but she could feel a scorching stare at her from the man on the driver’s seat.

“Okay, then I will call the cops and everyone now that Adam was already found. Have a safe back home. I will wait for you and Adam.” Damien replied sweetly.

“Thank you, Damien.” She uttered with sincerity then hung up the phone.

She kept her phone back in her pocket and looked at the man beside her. He was now focusing on his driving again. Then her eyes landed on his cheek. It was like an eyesore seeing his smooth white skin had a red big palm mark. She did say thank you to Damien but she didn’t thank Bill for saving her from his mom.

She had no plan at all. It was nothing for her compared to what he did to her 6 years ago.

The silence filled the air again. This time the atmosphere became hot as the two hearts had grudges for each other. They were trying to calm down but it seemed to be calm was not their forte especially whenever they were together.

In the next second, Bill’s phone rang.

Bill quickly answered it.

“Speak up,” Bill ordered.

“Sir, your son…” The man on the phone staggered.

“What about him? Speak up!” Bill’s voice had danger. He knew something went wrong.

Arabella was also alerted. She sensed they were talking about Adam and something bad had happened.

“Sir, your son escaped. He managed to unlock your door security code.” The man’s voice trembled in fright while reporting.

“What?” Bill didn’t know what to feel. He was quite amazed and surprised knowing that his son had such a great skill as he set up his passcode by himself and no one could open it except him.
