You Can Run But You Can't Hide My Contractual Wife novel Chapter 214

“Dad, Mom, can my friend and his uncle join us?” Adam was so excited.

Bill looked at Arabella seriously then he smirked meaningfully.

Arabella couldn’t answer her son immediately.

In this kind of situation, she should let Bill decide.

“No problem son,” Bill replied messing Adam’s hair.

Then his sharp glare was pointing to Eric who had a smile on his face.

“Yes!’ Adam was very happy as he ran back to Ivan.

Eric strode forward to Bill.

He was always wearing a meaningful but calm vibe.

Arabella could not help wonder what was the real score between the two billionaires?

Do they have a personal hatred for each other? Or just simple competitors in business.

“Mr. Sky, thank you for letting my nephew enjoy this kind of activity.” Eric blurted.

“Hmmm…” Bill muttered lazily as he continued assembling the tent.

Arabella just watched the two but when Eric's eyes captured her, she quickly looked down and focus on preparing her salad.

“It’s nice to see you again.” Eric sounded calm.

To her surprise, Eric was already in front of her.

First, she looked at Bill who was also looking at them dissatisfied.

“Thanks. “She could only say very short as she wanted to end the conversation immediately.

The trip was for her son and knowing Bill, he would not spare every single jealousy in his body.

Arabella just didn’t want to ruin the trip because of Bill’s mood.

Eric seemed to feel her aloofness towards him as her eyes were not meeting his.

He nodded. “Do you need help there?” He asked gentlemanly as Arabella was slicing potatoes.

“No, I’m good here,” Arabella answered quickly.

She just wanted to get rid of Eric. She knew Bill was looking at them scornfully without her looking at him.

“Ouch!” She suddenly cried out when she absentmindedly sliced her finger.

Eric quickly held her hand.

“Eric I’m fine. It’s fine.” She wanted to take away her hand from Eric’s grip but he tightened his grip.

“Don’t move.” Eric’s voice carried a wave of displeasure as he slowly blew her finger.

“Mom are you okay?” Adam and Ivan ran towards them after hearing Arabella scream.

“Yes, Adam. No worries. Now go back playing and have fun.” She replied trying to pull her finger away from Eric. “Eric this is just a scratch. I can take care of this.”

The two kids were both full of energy as they ran back to the ground.

“Shhh…” Eric just muttered as he wiped the blood on her finger with a tissue and blew it gently. “Please take care. I don’t want to see you hurt.” Eric said sincerely making her heart skip a beat.

“Thank you, Mr. Grant. I will take care of my wife.” Suddenly, Bill snatched her hand from Eric with a possessive expression.

Eric looked at Arabella first then Bill.

He smiled letting go of Arabella’s hand.

“Okay then. I’ll fix our tent.” Eric sounded. “Your hands are too precious. Take care of them.” He glanced at Arabella again before he walked away.

Bill came with the first aid kit.

“Come.” He assisted Arabella to sit down.

Arabella followed.

Then Bill cleaned her wound before she put an ointment on it and a band-aid.

“Thanks,” Arabella muttered.

“Is it hurting?” He asked worriedly.

“A little.” She answered with a smile as she could see Bill’s eyes were full of concern about her. It was impossible but the eyes could not lie.

So, this is how it feels when being cared for by Bill Sky.

Hearing her, Bill kissed her finger gently.

Arabella looked at Bill with a doubtful look.

He was always domineering and heartless.

The man who had no romance in the body became so sweet.

The man who treated women as trash was taking care of her now.

What was he up to?

It was just like a snap of a finger or a blink of an eye, he was changed.

“Bill, I think my barbecues were burning.” She said smiling.

“You stay here. I will take care of it.” Bill’s voice was gentle.

“No. This is nothing.” She lifted her wounded finger. “Go fix our tent. I can handle this.” She didn’t want to take no for an answer so she quickly stood up and left.

Bill just smiled at the stubborn girl.

He had not met someone who was so stubborn as Arabella.

Girls were always clingy but Arabella was independent.

She doesn’t need a man to do the work and just sit like a princess.

Bill shook her head and followed his wife’s order.

Night came, the table was prepared with good food.

Everyone had gathered around under the sky full of stars.

“Ivan, have this. My mom is a good cook.” Adam boasted.

Ivan took the stick of meat and started to eat. “Yum!” He muttered and nodded for approval.

Bill and Eric were sitting opposite each other drinking their wine.

“Here is the salad. Ta-dah!” Arabella put a big bowl of salad for everyone.

“Wow! My mom is the best!” Adam sounded cheerful.

Arabella settled in the middle of Bill and Adam.

“Ivan, are you okay?” She asked seeing Ivan become dispirited.

Ivan just nodded but his expression was sad.

Eric looked at his nephew with full of concern.

“Here.” Arabella saw the boy was missing his mom. “Finish this up so you and Adam can play.” Arabella put food on Ivan’s plate.

“Yes. Ivan, my mom’s food is very delicious.” Adam sounded supporting his mom.

Ivan started to eat the salad. “Yummy!” He sounded enjoying the food.

It seemed his sadness dissipated in an instant.

“I told you. My mom is the best cook.” Adam said proudly.

“Can you also be my mom?” Ivan suddenly asked with full of sincerity in his eyes and voice.

Eric’s wine almost spilled out of his mouth hearing Ivan’s sudden question.

Arabella didn’t know what to say as she was shocked by the boy’s question too.

He looked at Ivan with pity as she smiled sweetly at the little boy. “Sure, honey.” She answered.

“Yes!” The mute boy seemed to come back to life after hearing Arabella’s answer.

“Yes!” Adam also sounded happy. “Now, we have the same mom, brother.” He added tapping Ivan’s shoulder. “Our mom is the most beautiful.”

“I agree.” Ivan smiled agreeing to Adam.

“Dad, do you agree?” Adam asked Bill who was silently drinking his wine.

“Yes,” Bill answered nodding his head.

“How about you uncle? Do you agree, our mom is the most beautiful?” Ivan asked.

Eric charmingly looked at Arabella who was already blushing.
