Bill was left in a daze.
Just like that, his family was ruined.
He could see in his son's eyes the intense hatred towards him.
He quickly dialed someone on the phone. "Follow them and don't take your eyes away from them. Do I make myself clear?" Bill ordered strictly.
After the call, he stormed inside his room.
The girl who was in his bed was already packed up and ready to go.
She seemed in a rush that she just held her shoes and ran out with bare feet but Bill caught her arm.
He gripped it tight that tend to break her bone in anger.
"Who are you?" Bill shouted. His tone was dangerous.
The girl didn't utter any words. She seemed trembling but tried to focus on escaping.
"I..." The girl was about to answer lies but Bill suddenly caught her neck.
Bill pushed her forcefully on the wall choking her neck.
The girl was extremely shocked and terrified as she could feel the man had no plan to release her until she was out of breath.
"Say it or I will break your neck!" Bill roared while he tightened his grip on the girl's neck.
All he remembered when he was working, he fell asleep. When he opened his eyes, he felt a little bit dizzy.
He saw the girl who was already on top of him naked. His mind was floating but he was sure, he was in his office.
Then the next thing he remembered, his eyes landed on a disheartened face of a little boy.
Adam's expression was full of dismay and anger for him.
Adam was always sweet and a jolly kid but the Adam he saw earlier was full of resentment towards him.
When he introduced himself to Adam after his absence in Adam's life for a long time, Adam didn't give him a hard time. He quickly accepted him with a promise that he will not hurt his mom. He was prepared for his son's hatred at that time but surprisingly, Adam was straightforward like a grown up man who had no tantrums attitude different from the other kids that's why he easily captured his heart. Adam knew what he wants and he worked for it instead of hating his father forever but that was before.
Bill seemed to see a grown-up man in Adam who already cut their ties with each other.
Bill had never been afraid of his life only now.
Only seeing his family fall apart.
On the other hand, he knew Arabella was greatly hurt.
Seeing her cry made him want to hug her forever.
He set aside the evidence that the investigator gave him and ordered to gave him more proof that it was Arabella who stole the information of their final proposal.
He didn't want to confront her because he didn't want to hurt her.
Bill had decided not to confront her and would fix the issue of the company by himself.
He had to believe his wife.
There should be a reason for her to do it.
His love for her was strong enough to fix everything and he would not give up on his family.
Arabella and Adam gave him special satisfying happiness in his life and he could not afford to lose them.
"Let go of me!" Bill was back to his senses when the girl sounded breathless.
Absentmindedly, he choked her hard while he was caught in his deep thinking.
Bill quickly released the girl before he could kill her.
The girl coughed repeatedly and panted.
She was grasping her breath.
Then she looked at the man with fear holding her pained neck.
She thought, she could just escape easily after she injected a sleeping drug into Bill Sky but unfortunately he woke up.
The drug should keep Bill sleeping for a maximum of 3 hours but he woke up after one and half hours.
In that time frame, her eyes were full. She had done all the advantage of touching his cheeks and lips.
Bill was any women's fantasy. Seeing him sleeping in front of her, she even secretly kissed his soft cheeks even it was beyond the limit.
She was just paid to perform some nasty things appropriately.
Everything was planned from the time she showed up in the office except kissing and malicious touching him but she could not just avoid his tempting handsomeness.
"Now you tell me what I want to know or I kill you here!" Bill had no gentleness in his tone. Aside from his mom, only Arabella got his gentleness.
The girl felt her spirit get out of her body.
She was horrified by Bill's incensed expression.
Judging from his look, he was not bluffing.
His eyes were already killing her and she knew Bill would definitely kill her if he was not satisfied with her answer.
"I..." She answered staggering. How could she return the money when she already sent it to her family? She was really in big trouble but she couldn't offend the man in front of her who was about to take her life away.
"Your time is up!" Without any patience left, Bill sounded merciless.
Hearing him, she immediately dropped her stilettos on the floor and raised her hands blocking him from coming.
"I will tell now!" Horrified, the girl shouted as she stepped back but she was already cornered by the wall. Seeing Bill approach her quickly, "It's your mom!" Afraid of her life, she quickly spewed out to stop him from getting closer to her.
After she revealed the truth, Bill stopped. His expression was taken aback. "Are you saying the truth?" He asked reconfirming what he just heard.
"Yes! Please let me go now." The girl answered quickly and pleaded. Her heart was restless and she was very uneasy.
Bill looked at her with sharp deep eyes. "Too late!" He said seriously then he turned his back in time the elevator opened.
Two men strode into the hall and grabbed the girl. "Mr. Sky, pls. have mercy! Please!" The girl's voice echoed the room until it finally faded away.
Bill went inside his room with drained emotions.
He was angry.
Very angry.
But he could not resent his mom. He knew his mom was a good mother and he knew she was just having a hard time accepting the death of his father. Sooner. Bill just hoped that she would realize everything and would go back to the mother he knew.
He knew his mom never liked Arabella after his father died.
