You Can Run But You Can't Hide My Contractual Wife novel Chapter 227

Arabella and Adam drove directly to Damien’s house.

It was the mansion to which Damien had given her the key.

In the room, she put the sleeping Adam on the bed.

She looked at him with swollen eyes.

By just sneaking at him, one could easily say that exhaustion was eating him up.

She didn't want this to happen to Adam.

Arabella's heart was instantly torn into pieces.

Adam was always a brave boy.

He was different from the other kids.

He knew how to hide his real feelings so that they could not affect others, especially his mom.

Arabella never hated Adam when he easily forgave his dad but, at some point, she wished that Adam would be by her side always so she would not have a hard time living together with the Sky.

She would never have to live with them if not for Adam.

She would not have lowered herself being humiliated with the Sky every day if not for her son.

She would not probably be a servant in their house if Adam didn’t insist on living with his father.

All she had wanted was to stay away from Bill Sky and his family but Adam wanted to stay with them.

She hat to eat all their mockery and insults just to grant her son's happiness.

They treated her savagely when she's inside Bill's house.

She could not blame Adam though admittedly, she felt hurt and disappointed inside.

When Adam had known his father, he had no resentment towards the man who made her suffer.

She’s not a hypocrite that she would just say it’s fine with her because it was already in the past but her scars that Bill had made were still hurting like it was wounded just yesterday.

The pain had never faded away.

The justice she wanted for her family was like a boomerang in her mind.

She was satisfied and felt safe in N city with Damien and Adam.

Living as a single mom made her tough in life and with Adam's company, Arabella slowly buried those tragic memories in the past.

This way, she could live and completely raise Adam happily.

But she was wrong. Every night, Bill was always in her dreams. The tragic past seemed to be her shadow everywhere.

It was hard for her but eventually, Adam's presence in her life had greatly helped her.

The revenge for her injustices was kept at the bottom of her heart.

At that time, she just hoped that she would not see Bill Sky ever again.

She never wanted to see him anymore but destiny was too cruel for her.

Seeing Bill again was not part of her plan.

She tried her best to avoid him but Bill Sky caught her and again, he used his cruelty to imprison her.

He used Adam to control her because he knew Adam was her weakest spot.

She loved her son so much that she couldn't afford to lose him.

Bill wanted to control her life again.

Play his game and satisfied him in bed.

For Adam, she was left with no choice.

Some things didn't change.

Bill was still cruel to her in the present.

Bill Sky would never change.

On the other hand, Arabella was so tired of escaping from him.

She was exhausted by his cruelty in her life.

His existence in her life gave madness to her.

Living in him was a torment for her.

A woman who tasted Bill's cruelty would never fall again with his trap.

Her traumatizing experience with him would not let her be blinded by his fake sweetness.

The pain he inflicted on her in the past was already engraved in her heart.

People would hate her for sure but how could they expect her to fall in love with the cruelest man in her life just like that?

What about her father?

He died without justice.

And her mother suffered from trauma and stayed her remaining life in the hospital that was supposed to stay happily with her and Adam.

How could one expect her forgiveness just like that?

How could one expect that she would fall in love right away with Bill Sky?

She's not so stupid enough to jump right away in his bed and made him her beloved man.

It was all part of her plan.

Of course, she was only human and she’s not a martyr.

A woman who could feel anger, hatred and wanted to get revenge on the people who made her suffer.

Call her selfish but in her heart, she didn’t want to hurt Adam.

Adam was the most important person in her life.

Her guilt was killing her every second but she could not just leave her son with Bill who wanted to abort him from the start.

Arabella knew, Bill would do everything to get Adam but with Adam’s anger for his father, the boy would not choose him anymore.

The boy just wanted to have a father.

He was longing to be with his real father and most especially, Adam wanted to fix his family.

Arabella could clearly see that but there are really things that couldn’t be fixed.

Hatred, anger, jealousy, and vengeance, they’re meant to ruin everything.

After the death of her mother, Jaime, the plan was to go back to City N.

There, they could continue living just like before.

They didn’t need fame and money.

All she needed for his son was a happy peaceful life.

She swore to forget everything in the past for Adam.

Arabella heaved a deep sigh.

She looked at Adam again and stroked his head.

“I’m sorry, Adam.” With a heart full of remorse and sorrow, Arabella whispered to the poor little boy who was exhaustingly sleeping.

She kissed him full of love.

After a while, she dialed a number on her phone.

“Damien, we are here now.” She reported in an exhausted tone. Her tone was supposed to be cheerful because she finally did her plan but she also put Adam in a very bad situation. It never made her happy but for her, it was the only way to get Adam away from Bill.

She had no choice. She just had to act fast.

“I will be there soon. Stay there, Bill’s men are still following me.” Damien reported.

When Arabella went to the Sky Corporation, she had already switched her car to Damien.

Her car was parked already in the basement with Damien.

Everything in her plan worked.

Firstly, getting Bill's heart.
