You Can Run But You Can't Hide My Contractual Wife novel Chapter 241

"I'm here." Adam lifted his head slowly to face the man who was now wearing his coat and tie.

Adam's round eyes were misty like he was holding back not to cry.

"Still angry?" Bill Sky sounded cold.

He was like talking to an adult rather than a kid.

Adam just nodded.

There's no point in hiding his true feelings from his dad.

His eyes still carried hatred towards Bill Sky.

"Adam..." Bill called as he calmly fixed his tie. "Men should not be weak. That's the reason why kings are men. Do you understand?" His sharp eyes looked at Adam who was obviously contemplating his feelings.

His thoughts were with his mom.

Earlier, Bill called Adam.

He was hesitant to answer his father but deep inside him, he wanted to hear his father's voice.

So, he answered.

"Adam, I'm in the hospital. Would you care to pay me a visit?" Bill's voice was plain.

There's no trace of emotion in his tone.

"Dad???.. what... what happened?" Hearing about his father, Adam felt a fright.

He could feel his heart accelerate.

"I was shot." Bill simply answered.

Adam got panicked.

The hate he felt for his father was instantly covered with nervousness and worries.

When he was young, his mother's love was all he got.

He appreciated it and was satisfied with it until he started going to school.

Every day, he started to wonder about his father seeing his classmates accompanied by their fathers in school.

Whenever they have family school affairs, he was not envious yet he could not control to feel something was missing in him.

That kind of feeling became stronger as time passed by.

It slowly grew inside him until it became longingness.

When he finally knew his dad, the feeling was his happiest.

Finally, he had someone to call dad.

At first, it was a bitter pill for him to swallow since he knew his parents were not in a good term.

Then he felt the urge to fix his family.

He was hoping that someday everything would change.

A child that wanted to see his family complete and happy just like the other kids but Adam saw the reality was difficult.

He could afford to see his mom's tears and he could not just turn his back on his father.

He waited for him for a long time even if he didn't know if his father wanted or loved him.

He's just a kid who just wanted his parents to be together.

"Will you come and see me?" Bill sounded on the other line.

For a while, Adam was contemplating.

It was against her mom again but his heart was urging him to see his dad.

How could he leave his dad with that condition?

"Yes. I will, dad." Adam answered with his mind still weighing all the possibilities and consequences in hand.

After the call ended, Bill smirked grimly.

Even he had been with his son for just a little while, he knew Adam was kind-hearted.

Though he was tough sometimes, he knew Adam was a good and reasonable boy.

He's naturally sweet and he was always considerate towards others. Adam had all traits to be the heir of the Sky Corporation.

Bill had anticipated Arabella and Eric would bring Adam abroad.

No matter what happened, he would not lose his son.

Adam Sky is the only heir of his company.

He would not let anyone take him away.

He would not let anyone father his child.

Especially, not Eric Grant.

Now that he found him, Bill swore that only death could tear them apart.

Arabella hid his son for too long.

She took his rights for his son away.

They missed long years because of his mother.

Arabella Jones was cunning and a slayer.

She wore innocence but she had wicked tricks up her sleeves.

Arabella Jones seemed to underestimate him.

It was time for him to show her who was she messing with.

It was time for him to show her the real Bill Sky.

What she did to him, he would pay it back to her every single thing.

The tricks she did, he would make her feel all of it.

It's time for him to give her, her own dose of medicine.

'Arabella Jones... you should be scared... really scared.'

Bill grinned while his eyes darkened.

It showed catastrophe was about to happen.

Meanwhile, Arabella felt she was going insane.

For a while, she felt empty and she felt her world went instantly black.

'Wake up Arabella! Adam... Your son needs you. You have to find him! Stand up and find him! You have to get him back! Do not let that monster get Adam! Move now!' Arabella's inner thoughts were screaming inside her.

She had to move before it was too late.

Trying hard to gather all her strength left, she stood up and stormed out.

"Brother! Brother!" She was screaming for help.

Hearing Arabella, Eric quickly ran to her location.

He was busy packing his important stuff when he heard her and that instant, he knew something bad had happened.

"Tell me," Eric's tone was full of worries.

Arabella couldn't answer.

She felt her words would be replaced with her cries so she didn't dare to speak to avoid delays.

They had to find Adam before it was too late.

Her shaky hand quickly handed Adam's letter to Eric.

Eric immediately understood the situation without her telling anything to him.

"Let's go back to the hospital." Eric sounded in a hurry.

Arabella followed Eric.

Her heart was racing so fast.

If it continued, she's afraid her heart would explode.

Eric gathered all his men.

He ordered 10 men to guard his mansion and Ivan while 20 men were accompanying them to the hospital.

Eric drove his car with Arabella while they were being followed by his men.

When they arrived, Eric's men secured the hospital clearing their way to Bill's room.

Bill's 6 men were still guarding outside his room.

Eric's 15 men settled them making Eric and Bill strode inside freely. Without knocking, Arabella quickly opened the door.

She had no time of giving him courtesy and kindness.

Her plan was to get Adam and leave.
