You Can Run But You Can't Hide My Contractual Wife novel Chapter 325

Bill directly took off his tie and business suit.

He unbuttoned his shirt revealing his sexy firm muscles.

His eyes were caught in his deep thinking.

Many days had already passed when he called someone who he trusted.

"What's up, man!?" The voice over the phone was playful. "What makes the mighty Bill Sky remember to call me?" Gab Kenley sounded very surprised. When they had to hide from his family, Bill Sky was the only one who secretly helped him.

Gab and Farrah were living very far away from Capital Z with their baby boy.

"Gab..." Bill's voice was troubled by something. He blurted out his name as a warning.

"Come on, man. What's the problem? Aunt Kelly? The company?" Gab's tone became serious.

He could not believe his ears hearing Bill was troubled as Bill was always confident smart and capable of doing things to his advantage.

He never recalled Bill calling him for something like this.

"Nah... None of them." It was a brief answer from Bill Sky. His tone was indifferent.

Though he was wracking his brain too hard, Gab still could not find the answer to his question.

He was like finding a pin in the ocean.

Bill gave him so much trouble just now.

Gab heaved a sigh before he continued. "Come on Bill don't leave me guessing. What's the problem?" Gab's tone turned very serious and worried.

For a while, a deafening silence was heard.

Bill seemed to contemplate in the other line.

The dead silence was killing Gab.

In the first place, Bill called him but he seemed not ready to share what was troubling him.

On the other hand, Gab understood Bill clearly.

A man of pride and power was not good at telling his weaknesses.

"It's Arabella Jones." A few minutes later, Bill answered. His voice was dead serious like no one could afford to laugh at him or else something bad would happen.

Then another deafening silence was heard.

Gab didn't know how to react.

His wife Farrah is Arabella's best friend.

The two beautiful girls shared the same cute tricks.

The only difference was, that they fell mutually in love with each other when they first met.

With Bill and Arabella, they fell mutually hated each other.

There was no doubt that Gab was always at Bill's side as he was his best friend and first cousin.

They grew up together and knew him personally.

Aside from him and Marcus, Bill had no other close friends in their family.

"Oh! Okay... I'm all ears to you, man." Gab could only listen. Bill must muster all his courage for him to be able to share what's troubling him.

"She's annoying." Bill's statement was brief.

His tone was pissed but Gab wanted to laugh.

Trying his very best, Gab controlled it not to offend Bill.

He put his hand in his mouth so no sound would go out but he failed.

Gab's cracking laugh sounded on the phone.

"Gab..." Bill uttered seriously. His tone carried a dangerous warning.

Gab was not afraid of Bill but he had no choice but to carry on.

He had to help his cousin Bill Sky and more or less, he already knew the problem.

"Okay...sorry for that, man." Gab quickly fixed himself. "You have to understand that it was my first time hearing you saying something about a girl. Worst? Complaining." Gab explained sincerely.

It was true, Bill never complained as he never spent a single minute with his women after sex.

Bill never told this to him but he knew it because he had lots of eyes and ears in the elite society.

As a certified playboy before, these were all his women.

"Bill, cousin... man... One question." Gab was trying to solve Bill's problem like a love guru. He paused before he continued. "Do you love Arabella Jones?"

Bill on the other line was silent but Gab was a hundred one percent sure that Bill heard him.

Gab waited but he didn't answer.

Fortunately, Bill didn't drop the call.

Bill was clearly confused about his feeling about Arabella.

For a man who didn't know love, Bill would surely have a hard time dealing with his real feelings toward Arabella.

"Man, Arabella was a decent girl." More or less, Gab knew the issue between Bill and Arabella.

Farrah had shared it with him before especially Arabella's frustrations.

Even though Bill was silent on the other line, Gab knew that Bill was attentively listening to him. "And any decent woman wanted to be treated decently too, man." Gab continued his preaching. Farrah went to the supermarket for their groceries while he guarded their little boy who was still sleeping peacefully.

"Man, don't be too harsh on, Arabella," Gab added knowing his cousin's traits toward his women. Because of his blessed figure, handsome face, and wealth, women threw themselves at him deliberately. He needed nothing to do. Everyone wanted to please him. Everyone wanted to climb into his bed.

In other words, Bill Sky could get women effortlessly and Arabella Jones was the first woman who rejected him.

At first, Gab thought Bill was just affected because Arabella hit his ego but through time, Gab understood that there was something more.

There was something bigger.

A valid reason for his annoyance.

A valid reason why for the first time his mood was affected by a girl.

Could it be...

Could it be love?...

"Then what should I do to her?" Finally, Bill spoke again which made Gab recover his senses.

He knew it. Bill was attentively listening to him.

"Man, do not push yourself too hard on her. That was a big no-no. There are no decent women who wanted to be harassed, my dear cousin." In the family, Bill was always the determined one. He gets what he wanted. Just based on this characteristic, Gab knew the problem was with Bill’s approach to Arabella especially since she made him annoyed. His cousin Bill would surely do things that would make her suffer and for Arabella who would never accept defeat, it would be very difficult for the two to reconcile. Having these thoughts, Gab heaved a deep sigh to release his frustrations.

“Okay, let’s just put it this way…” Gab was trying to find a solution to Bill’s problem as he paused contemplating if Bill would not kill him after his words. He understood his cousin Bill needed guidance or else everything would be in trouble. The fact that he called him, Bill was willing to get some guidance from him. It made Gab proud of himself so he had to say something that could help his domineering cousin.

“What?” Bill’s tone was deep and impatient.

“Hmmm…” Gab hummed before he spoke. “Confess,” Gab suggested briefly. “Tell her, ‘I love …” The call was dropped before Gab could finish his statement.
