You Can Run But You Can't Hide My Contractual Wife novel Chapter 329

“I love you.” Bill suddenly uttered which made Arabella’s heart skip a beat.

She looked at Bill with her eyes strongly asking, ‘Why do you have to do that? Why do you have to tell a big lie to your son?’ Her eyes were uncomfortable.

They were seeking the truth beneath his lie.

Even Adam could not believe was he was hearing from his dad.

His eyes got rounder and his smile widened filled with excitement.

“Dad, do you really love mom?” Adam was the happiest kid on earth right now.

His cheeky smile could not hide his happiness.

Bill looked at her seriously.

His eyes were an unending abyss.

It was mysterious and meaningful.

Whatever it is, Arabella was afraid to know.

She was afraid what the truth about his words.

She was afraid of what was in his mind.

She was afraid of what he was planning to do and she was afraid that she would fall into that abyss and she could not escape anymore.

More specially, she was afraid for her heart.

“Yeah. I love your mom. Can you also ask her if she loves me?” That was unexpected coming from Bill Sky.

Bill answered Adam then he winked at Arabella whose smile was now completely fading.

Her eyes shot him with daggers secretly.

A controlled annoyance was traced on her face because obviously, she didn’t want to ruin the special night for Adam.

All her efforts and the good outcome would just go to waste if she would fight with this man in front of her son.

For her, Bill deliberately did it to put her in a difficult situation.

He wanted to ruin the night.

With her thoughts, Arabella strongly squeezed Bill’s hand under but Bill was quick to interlock their fingers together.

She wanted to push him with her other hand but she would just put their secret bickering under the table too obvious.

“Mom, are you okay?” When Arabella was unable to speak, Adam asked with pure innocence.

“Yeah. I am.” Arabella answered releasing her sweet smile.

“So, mom do you love daddy?” After hearing that she was alright, Adam asked again wearing his overwhelmed expression and somewhat he was very hopeful of getting a positive answer from his mom. It seemed her answer would complete the kid’s night.

Looking at Adam, Arabella had no heart to disappoint her son.

She widened her smile when the reality was, that she didn’t know what to say.

Her words seemed to stick in her throat.

Her wits had run out.

“Hmmm…” She hummed trying to say something. “Yes. I love your dad.” Mustering all her courage she answered.

She had no time to think. Adam’s hopeful expression was just too hurtful to break.

If she would say ‘No’ what would the kid think of his parents?

That he was made out of nothing?

What would Adam probably feel about it?

What would Adam think about her?

Is he going to look at her the way he looked up to him now?

Arabella was full of apprehensions.

She could not find her calm inside and this was because of one man.

She looked at him angrily.

Bill was looking at her too with eyes as deep as the word love means.

Their eyes met.

Seeing his parents, Adam could jump for joy.

Now, the question in his mind was answered.

When he saw her mom in his dad’s mansion, he wondered why.

Not until tonight.

Adam quickly stood up and approached Arabella.

“Thank you, mom, for coming to us.” It was a deep statement.

Arabella could feel the deepest sincerity of Adam.

It instantly made her eyes teary.

She wanted to cry but she controlled it because this night should be a night of happiness only.

No tears… No cries…

“Thank you, daddy, for bringing back mom.” Adam’s other arm reached for his dad.

The boy was very sentimental but he was bursting with happiness.

It seemed Adam’s long-time prayer was granted tonight.

“I love you, mom. I love you, dad.” Adam sounded hugging both of his parents.

Adam was not so expressive but tonight he was a very sweet little boy.

He seemed to wait this moment for a very long time to happen.

Arabella felt a bit of guilt as she knew Bill was just faking it.

They both faked it for the sake of Adam’s happiness.

One thing is for sure, she would not break Adam’s happiest moment tonight.

It was her first-time seeing Adam out of his controlled genius freak look.

He did funny things before but was not as sweet as this little guy now.

He seemed to feel complete.

Arabella hugged her little boy with her other arm.

Bill also did the same.

With the boy in between pulling them together, Bill and Arabella’s faces were left just a small gap from each other.

Arabella’s calm was quickly gone.

Bill’s handsome face was like a magnate to her eyes.

He was very tempting like she saw the most handsome god on the planet.

The depth of his eyes was like sucking her breath.

“I love you too, baby.” To disrupt whatever she was feeling inside, Arabella answered Adam trying to avert her gaze to Adam though she knew Bill’s eyes were on her. Admittedly, his stare made her weak.

She blushed tremendously.

The good thing was the lighting was warm so she was sure Bill and Adam would not notice it.

Arabella leaned down a bit to kiss Adam’s left cheek.

Unexpectedly, Bill kissed Adam’s right cheek.

It was a perfect family picture.

Adam felt very happy with his parents loving him.

He was hopeful that the moment would not end.

He prayed that his mom would stay with them forever and his dad would not bully his mom anymore.

There would be no fighting and there would not a point anymore that he had to choose between them.

Tonight, Adam could not ask for more. It was all he wanted.

With a silly smirk, Adam suddenly pulled out from the two.

Without expecting the little boy’s action, Arabella and Bill’s lips instantly landed on each other.

The wind blew cold just enough to cool down the atmosphere.
