You Can Run But You Can't Hide My Contractual Wife novel Chapter 251

At the dinner, Eric was happy seeing Rosy and Arabella go well together.

Finally, his best buddy was back.

She was the same girl, stubborn but with a kind heart.

He knew Rosy and Arabella would be good friends.

“Rosy, where are you staying now?” Eric asked.

He knew Rosy was capable of traveling alone but still, he was still worried about her because she is his best friend of course.

“Well, Pearl Swiss Hotel,” Rosy answered with a smile.

Arabella instantly froze along with Eric. The secret they were trying to hide seemed to make its way out.

The hotel belongs to the Sky. It was where Bill Sky brought her and tortured her the whole night against her will.

She was like captured like an animal and was served to the demon.

He did everything he wanted for her.

He found his satisfaction, in every pain, he inflicted on her.

Arabella remembered how she begged and scream his name but he didn’t stop.

He didn’t hear her.

After he fulfilled all his desires, he left.

He left her unconscious and was extremely worn out.

“Arabella, are you okay?” Rosy asked worriedly.

Rosy’s voice snapped her backed to her senses. She smiled a little. “I am… but I am sorry, I have to excuse myself. I feel so drowsy. Pregnancy thing,” She rolled her eyes coolly. She wanted to avert her thoughts as she didn’t want to give Rosy any suspicion about the hotel and her.

Eric stood up quickly too. “I will come with you.” He was worried as he knew, Arabella was thinking of that night with Bill Sky.

He was angry inside but he could not blame Rosy. She didn’t know anything.

“Oh, no my dear. Stay with Rosy. She is our guest. I can handle myself. I will just check on Ivan then I will go to sleep.” Arabella quickly kissed Eric on his cheek to show off.

She had to do it in front of Rosy as she didn’t want her to suspect them.

Eric was shocked and grateful for the kiss. It gave him heat inside. Her scent was also so addicting.

‘Arabella, why are you making me insane?’ In his mind, he was mad at himself as he knew his self-control was getting weaker and weaker.

Who could blame him? He is also a man who is staying in the same house with the person he loves the most.

Eric had no choice but to stay with Rosy.

When Arabella left silence invaded the air.

Eric’s mind was with Arabella while Rosy’s was with Eric.

The way they used to be.

The times when they were together happy.

The laughs, cries, and success they shared together were her treasures.

Those precious moments were the most valuable in her life. Now, Eric had a wife and a baby and she was left out.

“Eric…” Holding back her tears, Rosy released a smile. She didn’t want to ruin Eric’s mood but she felt like she had to know what happened between them.

Deep inside her heart was bleeding and broken.

“Rosy, any problem?” Eric asked without any hint at all.

With teary eyes, Rosy’s lips curled upward. She met Eric’s eyes. “You know that I love you right?” She started.

“I know. We are best buddies.” Eric answered. “And I am very happy that you like Arabella as well.” Eric held Rosy’s hand. He squeezed it a little. His eyes sparkled meeting hers.

At that moment, Rosy held herself back. She really wanted to ask everything to him.

‘Why can’t you love me back as a woman who loves you very much?’

‘Why just the best buddy?’

‘Eric, I love you when we are still a kid.’

‘Why can’t you see it?’

‘Why did you have to marry another woman?’

‘I have been with you through your ups and down, why not me?’

‘Why it has to be Arabella Jones?’

Rosy wanted to cry her heart out in front of Eric but she tried her best to hold it back.

The sparks in his eyes made her keep all the painful questions in her heart.

It was her first-time seeing Eric like this happy.

When his parents died, Eric was always a loner.

He was like Ivan before.

She was the one who did her best effort for Eric to talk to her.

When they grew up, Eric and Rosy went to school together. They graduated together. Took their masters and doctorate together abroad.

Then they finished together and they put up a company together.

She had no boyfriend ever since because her time was all allotted to Eric.

They helped each other.

On their campus, their classmates thought they were couples but it was not true.

Eric was always focused on his studies and even when he was young, he had already business proposals for her dad’s company.

Then her dad saw Eric's potential.

He let Eric work in the company while he was still studying.

Eric never disappoints her dad, when Eric worked in their company, its profit became tripled.

After they finished studying, her dad let go of Eric and helped him to put up his own business putting his daughter to help him.

After just three years, Eric’s company was the biggest in their country and was gaining a name internationally.

When her dad was schemed by one of his business partners, their company was going to bankruptcy but it didn’t happen.

Eric pulled them up and he made their company one of his company’s subsidiaries.

Eric helped them like he was her father’s son. Her dad was so thankful for Eric.

Rosy knew her parents wanted Eric to be her husband but they also respect Eric’s life.
