You Can Run But You Can't Hide My Contractual Wife novel Chapter 187

“Ta-dah!” Trishia greeted Kelly with her favorite cake. She purposely visited her in Bill’s house so she could also see Bill. She missed him a lot like she felt dying when she could not see him today.

“Trishia, what a surprise!” Kelly smiled warmly seeing the decadent cake from her favorite baker.

Trishia strode closer to hug and kiss Kelly but she secretly rolled her eyes at her back.

‘Hmmm… witch!’ She was cursing Kelly in her mind. If not for her Bill, she would not pretend to be kind to Kelly.

“Mom, I’m here because I missed you and Bill.” She expressed in her sweetest tone. Trishia could tell that she became a very good actress from time to time. She smiled proudly thinking of her best acting skills.

“Oh, darling. I’m glad you visited me but I’m sorry to tell you that Bill is not here.” Kelly announced preparing to taste the cake.

Trishia’s smile suddenly faded. She went there with a good vibe thinking that she could be with Bill again only to find out that he wasn’t there.

“Argggg….!”

Controlling her anger, Trishia smiled sweetly. She had to act the sweet confident lady in front of Kelly always as she couldn’t afford to offend her. For now, Kelly was the only person she could use.

Kelly is her shield and weapon.

“It’s okay mom. You know I also want to have time with you.” She uttered sweetly but deep inside she was annoyed wasting her time with her.

“Thank you, darling. Then let’s have a bite of the cake.” Kelly offered.

They sat and started to eat the cake. “How’s your wound?” Kelly asked worriedly.

“Don’t worry mom. I’m fine though it’s still aching a little, it’s manageable.” She answered like she was a pity.

“Hmmm… you really are very tough,” Kelly remarked in contentment.

“Well, I can catch a bullet for Bill if I have to.” Trishia proudly uttered. She knew Kelly always liked to hear those words. Kelly always wanted to assure that she loves her son.

“Come on. You don’t need to say that. I already know Trishia. Please do not get tired of loving Bill.” Kelly smiled at her in satisfaction.

“Where is Bill, mom? Is he in the office?” Trishia was longing to ask.

“He is on a business trip with that woman and his son,” Kelly answered with a pissed tone.

Kelly’s words were like sharp-pointed blades slowly pierced into her ears. She felt envious and intense anger.

That woman!

Trishia was already exploding inside but still maintaining her fake smile in front of Kelly. She had to make Arabella disappear from Bill’s life or else she would ruin all her plans. Bill belongs only to her and no one could interfere with them.

“Don’t worry darling, I think they are coming back today. So just stay here until dinner. Will you?” Seeing Trishia’s lost expression, Kelly quickly pacified her.

Kelly’s words were like music to her ears now.

“Sure, mom.” She would never refuse such a good offer.

Trishia smiled hearing the good news. Finally, she would see Bill again.

Before she went there, she had pampered herself. She went to a spa. Got a good massage, waxed, manicure, and pedicure. She shopped for new dresses and went to a salon for her hair and make-up. She wanted to be perfect in Bill’s sight. Luckily her effort today would not be put in vain.

F City.

Arabella was fixing Adam. Today, Adam begged to go to the biggest theme park in the city with his parents before they fly back to Capital Z.

As she was combing his hair, Arabella couldn’t help thinking about the scene at the lobby last night.

“Bill,” Arabella uttered with nervousness. He wore a dangerous expression in his calmness. She never thought that he would follow her there after all her violent beatings at him.

“Stay here. I will deal with him.” Eric quickly said but when he was about to leave her, “No. I will deal with him. I don’t want to cause any trouble for you.” She uttered almost whispering then she quickly strode away but Eric followed her.

Bill looked at them with scorching eyes. Arabella just walked past Bill but he suddenly grabbed her wrist.

“Let me go.” She muttered enough to be heard by Bill. The four guests were still in the place and she didn’t want to make a chaotic scene.

Bill didn’t reply but his grip tightened that could crush her bone.

“Let her go.” With a deep serious voice, Eric sounded behind Arabella. He felt angry seeing the expression of Arabella. She was hurting by Bill’s grip but she didn’t complain.

“Mr. Grant. Mind your own business.” Bill's scorching eyes switched onto Eric.

“No. You are hurting her.” Eric wanted to snatch Bill’s arm to let go of Arabella but before Eric’s hand could settle, Bill let go a heavy blow on Eric’s face.

“Bill!” Arabella shouted in panic. Eric didn’t expect the attack.

“Back off!” Bill angrily shouted at him but Eric had no fear of Bill as he still strode forward and grabbed Bill’s arms again to let him go of Arabella.

Arabella was stunned by Eric’s bravery and courage but at the same time, she was worried about him. Eric was willing to get hurt for her. She panicked as she knew Bill could kill him in this kind of situation.

Enraged, Bill gave Eric another blow. Eric with a bleeding mouth took a step backward controlling himself not to fight back. In the first place, he knew Arabella was married to Bill as Bill announced it at the party, and with a little investigation, it was confirmed and they also had a son.

As an educated professional businessman, he knew his place but he could not stand to see Arabella was getting hurt by her husband. For some unexplainable reason, he wanted to save and protect her.

With the palpable scene in the lobby, the manager and a group of security guards came running in panic.
