You Can Run But You Can't Hide My Contractual Wife novel Chapter 344

“Victor? What are you doing? Behave yourself!” Ginger hissed first feeling embarrassed by his brother’s action.

She was stunned and puzzled by the scene too but she could not stand it with his brother as she knew Victor was playful all the time and sometimes, he had a mood that was very difficult to understand.

As for Ginger, she didn’t want Bill to think something bad about her family.

Arabella quickly snatched her hand from Victor.

She averted her gaze to the side as she could not continue to stare at his killer eyes.

They seemed to stab her alive.

But why Bill was acting like he was angry with the scene when he deliberately invited Ginger for breakfast earlier?

He invited Ginger not her.

With her thoughts, she got annoyed.

Why she would care about Bill when he didn’t even care about her?

That was just so unfair if she would feel somewhat guilty and needed to explain everything to him.

Why?

Nothing happened!

Victor and her didn’t do anything bad and she didn’t need to explain.

It was not her fault if they saw them and put meaning to the scene.

Her conscience was clear besides, she didn’t need to explain as she didn’t have a romantic relationship with him.

Bill wasn’t her boyfriend.

He wasn’t her lover.

So overall there was no need for her to explain.

“Sister, breakfast?” Instead of answering his sister’s nagging, Victor averted the topic.

Ginger held her temper as she looked at Bill to see if he wanted to accept Victor’s breakfast invitation.

Without speaking any word, Bill strode toward the table grabbed his chair, and sat like a king.

He sat elegantly and expressionlessly.

Though his face was calm, Arabella could not find any relief.

After the intimacy they shared last night, she was still intimidated by his presence.

“Okay, shall we all sit down and let me serve the coffee nicely.” Victor sounded like nothing happened.

Ginger rolled her eyes to her brother and went to sit beside Bill.

They were there because Bill asked to see Victor.

Instead of eating breakfast in her place, she decided to bring Bill to Victor’s place and planned to prepare breakfast for them.

But unexpectedly, the table was already prepared and to her surprise, Arabella was still there.

Not only that, they were like doing something not good to the eye.

With that, Ginger cooled herself down.

It seemed the breakfast would be shared for the four of them.

Arabella wanted to flee but for her, it was not a good idea.

They would think of her as guilty of doing something fishy.

She would stay because she was not guilty even though Bill’s eyes were already condemning her.

She sat across from Bill.

Victor was serving coffee to their cups.

Bill looked at her proving something.

She didn’t mind him.

She was avoiding his stare.

After a while, Victor sat beside Arabella.

“Let’s eat.” He sounded signaling his hand to start eating.

For a while, awkwardness circulated in the air.

There was a deafening silence before someone had spoken first, “I need to go back to the city today. Do you have your decision yet?” Bill was holding his cup elegantly and sipping after his words.

He talked formally and his eyes were deep penetrating to all they were meeting.

Victor looked at him and smiled playfully.

Ginger looked at her brother with a warning look.

“Why did you not tell us about your wife, Arabella?” Victor asked averting the topic.

Ginger was so annoyed with her brother’s question.

She secretly stomped his foot under the table.

Victor gritted his teeth feeling the pain but he remained playful. He had his own agenda.

Still avoiding Bill’s gaze, Arabella felt nervous for Victor.

She knew Bill didn’t like this kind of conversation especially when it comes to his personal matter.

Bill looked at Victor seriously putting down his cup in place. “What for?” He asked Victor back.

His expression was deadly serious and his tone was not interested in the topic.

To everyone’s ears, he sounded intimidating and arrogant, especially Arabella.

Hearing Bill, Arabella felt hurt.

She didn’t know why but the way he said it was like he was showing everyone that she didn’t matter.

She didn’t matter to him at all.

She hated herself and why she was hurt when she didn’t have anything.

Her instinct reminded her that she had no right to feel this way.

Bill was nothing to her.

She was nothing to him and that’s already fair enough.

“Just curious.” Victor felt there was something about the couple but he didn’t want to dwell on it.

At first, he just wanted to play with the mighty Bill Sky but then he felt guilty seeing Arabella’s uneasy expression.

“Well… My answer is No.” Victor said directly.

His expression was tough but cool.

He was an easy-go-lucky guy but his eyes were serious.

He put a smile on his face but his eyes were gloomy but he covered it with his playful words and actions.

With that being said, Bill spun his cup slowly for a while like he was playing with his cup.

His calm and composed demeanor was not affected by Victor’s rejection.

It seemed his expression would still be the same even if Victor would agree or whatever his decision would not affect Bill’s expression.

On the other hand, Arabella was nervous for Victor.

She was also a little disappointed that the two gentlemen didn’t end up well.

She felt the room became suffocating for the four of them.

It seemed the tension stiffened the air.

“Victor, you can’t do that! Dad had already…” After Victor’s announcement, only Ginger had a bursting reaction.

Her eyes widened irritated with her brother’s decision.

She hissed to scold him but Victor raised his palm facing her signaling her to stop.

“Let me finish, my dear sister,” Victor said as he winked at her cutely.

Ginger was dumbfounded.

Victor was aware that all eyes were on him but he still managed to let them be puzzled for a while.

He took his time to drink his coffee and then put the cup down slowly and nicely.

Then, Victor looked at Bill first then Arabella. After, he smirked cutely.
