You Can Run But You Can't Hide My Contractual Wife novel Chapter 223

" Trishia! What the h*ll are you doing?" Alice rushed to the girl who was sitting on the bathroom floor. She was not in a good condition. With a cigarette in her hand and pulverize drugs, on the other hand, her room was full of smoke with an unpleasant smell.

After Bill had chased her away, she came back to being an addict. It was the only way she could get away from all her problems and frustrations.

"Who gave this to you?" Alice quickly snatched the drugs on a silver foil as she roared.

With no spirit, Trishia just looked at her mother.

She smirked and smile. " Ask your husband..." She answered like she was out of herself.

Ever since Sen. Meyer was giving her drugs whenever she asked for it.

At first, she found it beneficial in her acting career. Then she became addicted to it discreetly.

Who could blame her if this was the only thing she could find herself in cloud nine?

" Trishia, baby... pull yourself together. Will you? You'll harm your body with that!" Alice looked at her only child full of pity. She was not surprised that her husband had illegal drugs. She was not blind to all Sen. Meyer's illegal activities. All these years she stayed with the evil senator to protect Trishia.

" I want a divorce," Alice demanded.

"Huh!!!" Sen. Meyer answered mockingly. "Ha!hah!ha! " He laughed like he heard the funniest joke in the world. "Your life and your daughter's life are all mine! Do you understand that?" Upon his words, he dragged Alice's hair roughly and stuck her to bed. Then he locked the room outside.

"Let me go here! Let me go!" Alice cried.

"You stay there until you get sobered. Don't try to escape or you know what I can do to your beautiful daughter! Just remember what happened to your great lover! Hahahha!" Sen. Meyer's laugh was not good for the ears. He was like a villain who always want harm to anyone.

" Trishia! For god's sake, stop doing this to yourself!" Alice was sympathizing with her daughter. She was guilty of Trishia's upbringing.

Ever since Trishia had no real friends to talk with.

Shew grew up with a lavish lifestyle and worshiping money.

When she could get whatever she wanted because of money, she lost the value of herself, friendship, and family.

She thought, money and fame could solve everything but when all crumbles, she had no one.

"Mom... that Arabella... I want her to die!" Trishia's tone was unstable. She was hugging her knees while cursing Arabella repeatedly.

"Trishia, come on, honey! These things shall pass. Don't do this to yourself. Don't ruin yourself!" Alice tried her best to pacify her daughter.

She couldn’t see her in this kind of a mess.

"No, mom! That b*tch ruined my life!" Trishia exclaimed. "Give these all to me!" Trishia tried to snatch back the foil from her mom but Alice was quick to flush it out on the toilet bowl.

"Mom! That Arabella should die! She's always blocking my way that's why Bill cannot see me! As long as Arabella is alive, she will always be a hindrance to my happiness!" Trishia angrily shouted.

"Pull yourself together, Trishia! You promised! You promise not to harm that girl!" Alice reminded Trishia.

"Because that man promised to take care of everything! That man should be blamed for everything!" Trishia roared. "Hahaha!" She laughed stretching her legs on the toilet floor. "Why do I even listen to that useless man!?" Trishia chuckled.

She was lost in her hallucinations that she laughed and got mad at the same time.

"Trishia, you can't say that!" Alice refuted. " Please respect him." She added.

"Bullsh*t!" Trishia cursed. "Bullsh*t! Bullsh*t!" She could not control her hatred.

"Trishia! You are too much! Have respect for him.” Alice couldn’t get any angry with Trishia but she had to put her in place.

“Hahaha! Tell to that man that I don’t need him in my life. He had no place in my life!” She shouted angrily and left the room.

Alice was left in awe.

She had no control over Trishia but she just couldn’t give up on her.

She is still her daughter no matter what.

Alice just hoped that Trishia could realize that she still had someone who truly cares for her.

She also wished Trishia to not be blinded with hatred and jealousy before it was too late.

After being caught in her deep thinking, Alice got her phone and dialed a number.

“You have to help me,” Alice demanded and pleaded at the same time. Her tone carried lots of worries.

Meanwhile, In the Sky Corporation, everyone was waiting for the good news.

Today is the final presentation of the proposals in every company that joined the bidding.

The Sky Corporation’s employees were confident enough that their company would have the project as they were used to having all projects landed on their hands as long as their CEO would take the lead.

It was not new for them that Sky Corporation would win as long as the company is interested in such a project, they always have it.

Since the final presentation was held in another country, Bill brought Arabella with him.

In the morning, she was just left in the hotel. Bill was the only one who went for the final presentation.

He just arranged for someone to pick her up in the night for the party where the committee of the bidding would announce the winner of the project.

Arabella looked at her watch. It was still early to glam up.

Since she was new to A city, she wanted to stroll around.

“Mrs. Sky, should I arrange the car now?” A man in a black and white suit strode towards her seeing her go out of the room.

Bill had assigned two bodyguards for her.

“No thanks. I just want to walk.” She simply replied.

Arabella was not used to someone’s tailing her all the time but Bill insisted that she should have bodyguards for her safety always.

“And… you can all stay here. I don’t want someone to follow me. Okay?” She stopped and turned around as the two men went forward to tail her.

“But, Mrs. Sky… Mr.” The other man uttered but Arabella stopped him by signaling her hand.

“I’ll get your back.” She said with no chance for negotiation then she strode away.

“Mr. Sky, Mrs. Sky went out by her own…” One of the bodyguards quickly reported.

A city was famous for its landmarks.

She captured photos and sent them to Adam.

Then she decided to go shopping.

Bill had given her a platinum card with no limitation.

She would use it for the first time today.

She felt alive and free again without no one’s bothering her or watching her every move.

Just when she was about to heave a sigh of relief, her eyes had caught her two bodyguards secretly following her.

As she expected, Bill would never let her be on her own.

Losing her interest in shopping, she went back to the hotel and started to dress up.

She expected big wigs at the party because of the big project.

She wanted to be dazzling and the most beautiful lady at the said event.

The media would feast on this kind of event for sure.

When she was smiling at her goddess reflection in the mirror, her cellphone rang.

Bill Sky.

“Hon? How’s the presentation?” She greeted. Her tone was full of excitement.

“Very good.” Bill’s tone was tired but he tried to lighten up a little.

“Oh! Good to hear that! Now, this party is really a celebration.” She commented.

“I’m confident no one could beat our proposal.” In his tiring tone, Bill said confidently.

“That’s great! Should I congratulate you right now?” She uttered with a tease.

“Nahhh… I want something more rewarding later.” Bill answered with a playful tone.

Arabella on the other line chuckled.

“I will give you anything you want, honey.” Arabella sweetly said.
