You Can Run But You Can't Hide My Contractual Wife novel Chapter 201

“Dad!”

Arabella called out. Her heart instantly raced fast. Called her crazy to think that the man was her dad but Arabella was no doubt about it. She panicked and thrilled as she stormed in the man’s direction.

“Dad!”

She called him again but the man didn’t turn around nor move. He seemed not hearing hear but that was impossible as she was already shouting at her loudest.

“What are you doing here?” A deep voice suddenly sounded behind her. Without turning around, she already knew the owner of the voice.

Bill Sky.

As for the moment, she had no time for him. She had a more important thing to check out. With her high heels, she ran towards the man but she suddenly twisted her ankle when her heel stepped wrongly on the cobblestone.

Arabella stumbled. She already surrendered herself to the ground but someone had caught her on time.

She slowly opened her eyes not feeling any other pain aside from her ankle. She looked up to see her savior and was tantalized by the handsome face her eyes landed on.

Bill Sky saved her.

Thankful, but the memories of them last night flashed across her mind and she instantly blushed. Then it quickly flowed to the time when Bill left her for Trishia.

Arabella was flushed. She quickly stood up and pulled out herself from his arms. Arabella quickly walked away heading to the dimmer area in the place. The man was not there anymore and her heart instantly collapse.

There’s no one in the area but it was hard for her to believe that she was just imagining it.

‘What are you thinking, Arabella?’

‘You saw your dad with your own eyes.’

‘He died a long time ago.’

‘It’s impossible for dad to be here.’

Arabella shook her head to get rid of her crazy thoughts.

She was lost in her thoughts as her heart was still thumping fast and couldn't find its calm.

Her palms were sweating cold.

She couldn’t understand why she felt this way.

The picture of the man’s back earlier was haunting her.

Arabella stayed on the spot where she saw the man when someone grabbed her wrist.

She instantly felt the creeps in the night.

She was snapped back to her senses and saw Bill Sky was already dragging her.

“What are you doing?” She sounded disturbed and irritated.

He just distracted her thoughts.

“It’s not safe there,” Bill answered plainly.

She hated to admit it but Bill was right so she followed. Her thoughts went back to her dad and she let him drag her until she saw a bench.

She stopped.

“I will stay here.” The bench was already near the entrance of the main venue. If Adam would need her, she could just run into him quickly.

“The party is inside,” Bill answered lazily. His words were impatience.

“I don’t need to be at the party. I’m just here for Adam.” Her voice was cold. She didn’t even want to talk to him.

“But Adam is inside,” Bill answered with sarcasm.

Arabella pulled her hand and sat on the bench with all her stubbornness.

Bill stood still and seriously studied his stubborn wife.

“Why are you here by the way?” She rolled her eyes at him as she could not control her annoyance. “Your Trishia is surely looking for you right now.”

“My Trishia?” Bill frowned and sat beside her.

Arabella looked at him.

Their eyes met.

Bill’s eyes were unfathomably serious while Arabella’s eyes were disgusted, annoyed, and mocking.

She couldn’t help it.

He left her last night and if he was not here, she could have seen the man’s face and would not be left hanging with curiosity right now.

“Bill? Thank God you’re here!” Trishia’s voice echoed outside. She was wearing a shimmering red backless perfectly embracing her curves. Admittedly, Trishia was extra stunning tonight. With all her efforts, she had to.

Trishia was startled seeing Arabella and Bill outside sitting on a bench.

Her jealousy was aroused inside her but she had managed to maintain her sweet smile.

“Oh, how nice to see you, Arabella. Aren’t you not going to greet me?” Trishia spread her arms waiting for Arabella’s birthday hug.

Arabella could see the fakeness in Trishia.

She just smiled.

“Happy Birthday.” Plain and simple.

Trishia put down her arms slowly glaring daggers at Arabella secretly.

“Bill let’s go inside now. Dad is waiting for you and the other guests. He was worried something bad happened to you in your way here.” With her sweetest voice, Trishia grabbed Bill on his arm.

Arabella was a bit stunned by Trishia’s words. So, Bill just arrived and still didn’t enter the venue of the party.

Arabella didn't get it. Isn’t it Trishia’s birthday why everybody’s waiting for Bill?

Bill stood up.

“Let’s go.” He sounded lax with Trishia’s hands glued on his arm.

Trishia smiled proudly like showing Arabella who’s the real queen.

Arabella easily got Trishia's message. She just smirked and folded her hands in front of her.

“Arabella by the way, Adam needs a babysitter inside. Do come later. Okay?” Not satisfied with leaving Arabella behind, Trishia turned around and insulted her using her sweetest voice. She’s not dumbed to Ask Arabella to come with them as she didn’t want her to snatch the spotlight.

Of course, the Queen and King's entrance should be grand.

Arabella just smirked at the couple who just left her.

Bill didn’t even spare her another glance.

So Trishia invited her to be a babysitter of Adam?

That's fine, Adam is her son.

Adam didn't even need a babysitter.

He could handle himself pretty well and he hated someone assisting him.

Arabella sighed.

Is Trishia not ashamed that she’s here?

All people should have known by now that she’s Bill’s wife.

People knew Bill is a married man.

Why is Trishia still hooking up with him?

Bill must be giving Trishia something that she could face the crowd with a married man.

Or Bill Sky is an exception perhaps?
