You Can Run But You Can't Hide My Contractual Wife novel Chapter 340

When she thought that she would get hurt so badly, it didn’t happen.

Arabella landed on a hard-muscled chest.

Bill had caught her just right on time.

When she slowly opened her eyes, she was already inside Bill’s embrace.

She was stunned for a while.

Their eyes met then she quickly recovered her senses realizing the main purpose of why they had to go down into a pit.

Adam… her son…

Arabella quickly jumped out from Bill and strode to Adam who was still in the same position.

His face was facing the ground while his back was heaving heavily up and down repeatedly.

Obviously, Adam didn’t want anyone to see him cry.

Seeing her son’s sorrowful situation, Arabella felt her heart shattered into pieces as she slowly walked toward the little boy, and then she knelt.

With her delicate fingers, she touched Adam’s hair gently.

“Baby, honey, mommy is here.” She whispered as her eyes were becoming moist and any time soon her tears would flood.

Adam didn’t move but she knew he heard her clearly.

Bill was just standing behind them seeing Arabella and Adam.

He seemed to let Arabella handle the thing for now and he seemed to know that his temper was not suitable to handle his son for the moment.

“Baby, Adam… Can we go home now? Are you hurt? Please tell me something.” Arabella’s tone was very worried.

At this time, she didn’t know what to do.

She didn’t know how to pacify her son as she felt guilty for what happened to him.

She would never imagine that this would happen to Adam as her boy was always a jolly one.

When it comes to serious matters, he was always a mature thinker.

He thought like an adult.

Now, her boy was very down.

He seemed very disappointed to them.

How could she explain everything to Adam?

How could she explain without hurting him?

All she wanted to do was to take all Adam’s worries away but it seemed easier to be said than done.

“Mommy, I’m hurt so bad.” Finally, Adam muttered which made her snap back to her senses.

“Where, baby? Can you stand up, please?” Hearing Adam, Arabella panicked.

This time, Adam moved slowly.

He sat on the ground.

Seeing her little boy clearly, Arabella’s eyes widened.

The boy’s knees were bleeding.

Adam’s chubby cheeks were crimson while his eyes were full of tears.

She wanted to pick up her son and hugged him so badly but Adam’s expression was so distant.

He looked like his father.

His eyes were cold.

He was angry.

Undoubtedly, he was angry with them. He was angry with his parents.

"Here, mommy. It hurt so much." Tears dripped down Adam's eyes while he pointed to his left chest.

He was pointing his hurt so innocently.

“Baby… I’m sorry. You are hurt because of mommy.” Arabella could not help but cry.

For her, Adam should not experience this kind of pain at a very young age.

She felt like an uncompetitive mom.

She blamed herself for agreeing with Bill’s scheme.

She should have protested what he said that night.

How could she let him trick her son? And she was involved in the crime.

“Adam, whatever you feel right now, let’s talk about it at home.” Bill came in and sounded strict.

Arabella got so annoyed by his tone.

She looked at Bill with her killer eyes.

What could she expect from the mighty Bill Sky?

He was always domineering but somehow, she hoped that he would consider his son’s feelings at the moment.

Adam obviously wanted someone to sympathize with him not someone who would nag or scold him.

Arabella started to feel devastated about the father and son’s relationship and how Bill handled Adam’s feelings.

“Baby, can you stand up?” Arabella lovingly said.

She wanted to touch Adam but Adam raised his hand to stop her. “I can manage, mom.” Adam sounded cold.

Arabella felt hurt by Adam’s action but she managed to understand.

She knew she had to be tough and should not break down.

Adam needed her.

With her instinct, she quickly hugged her son even if he didn't want to.

When Adam felt his mom, he cried loudly.

Moms have truly had magic.

It was the very first time she saw and heard her son's crying.

Her heart was clenched very hard as she stroked his back and tapped his shoulder gently.

“Mommy is here baby. Whatever you feel right now, this will all pass.” With a very loving tone, Arabella whispered sincerely while lovingly kissing Adam’s forehead.

Adam hugged her tightly. “I’m sorry, mom. I made you worried again.” Adam’s voice was sincere and worried.

“Shhh… I understand. I understand your pain. I understand your disappointment.” She caressed Adam’s back gently.

“There you all!” Then suddenly, a man above the ground sounded.

“Bill, Arabella, Adam, are you all okay?” Next, Ginger’s voice was heard.

“Yes… we are.” Arabella had to answer them because Bill seemed to have no plan to answer.

The torches were lit around.

The men on the farm gathered around to help them get out of the pit.

Victor put down a rope knotted by portions to the ground. He anchored it on a humongous tree.

Adam was first and he got out successfully.

Arabella and Bill were left.

When Arabella was about to climb in the ladder, Bill suddenly grabbed her and pushed her to the side.

She panicked a lot.

Her mind was getting into mess.

Is Bill planning to leave her in the pit?

Rolling her eyes, she went back to climb but Bill quickly cut the rope.

She didn’t even notice how Bill got a big gardener scissor.

Maybe it was all along inside the horse’s side bag.

“Bill what are you doing? Are you insane?” Arabella shouted angrily.

She could not help to stay calm with her companion’s crazy mind.

“Hey! What happened there? Are you guys okay there? ” Victor's voice echoed.

They were all shocked when the rope was cut.

“Bill? Are you okay?” Ginger asked worriedly.

“You can all go home,” Bill ordered which made everyone dumbfounded.

“Bi…” Ginger wanted to say something.

She wanted to confirm if they heard it right but she didn’t finish her sentence.

“We have a very important to discuss. Leave us… Leave me and my wife.” Bill ordered strictly.

Hearing Bill’s last word, Victor, Ginger, and the other men were surprised.

They were stunned for a while but then, “Okay, you heard it all. Let’s come back now.” Victor was the one who first recovered his senses.
