You Can Run But You Can't Hide My Contractual Wife novel Chapter 6

Bill Sky, the CEO of Sky Corporation.

Backed to her senses, she only had 3 hours left. It seems that time is not her friend right now. Arabella had to decide.

‘Can I really afford to offend Sky Corporation? My Gosh! What should I do?’ She’s talking to herself now. ‘What does he want from me? Is he going to get revenge on me because I hurt him last night?’ She paused for a moment, ‘But I just protected myself.’ She exclaimed. ‘But you were the one who kissed him first you idiot!” Her other self reminded her. ‘Yeah, it’s really my fault last night, so what should I have to do now?’ she was pressured since time is running, she needs to decide.

After pondering for a while, she came up with a brilliant idea.

She would see Bill Sky and clear the issue with him. It is better to put an end to it rather than running away from him. ‘Hello? As if she could hide from this powerful man such as the CEO of Sky Corporation. They almost own everything in Capital Z.’

She just settled in her new apartment. She succeeded hiding from her parents and Jason for a few weeks now. She couldn’t afford to run again. She just wanted a peaceful life. If she had to beg Bill Sky to let go of his grudges ‘that if he has grudges on her’ she’s not sure, but worst scenario, she would beg just to let her live peacefully.

The only thing she’s sure about is he was angry at her.

Arabella was decided on her plan. She would disguise herself for him to disgust her. If she would be an ey sore to him, maybe he would just ask her bodyguards to drag her out right away. He would not waste his precious time to talk to her anymore. ‘That’s it! That is the right thing to do!’

Arabella quickly dressed up her baggy clothes and her wig with her big round eye glasses. This time she put on her make up, but not to beautify but to make lots of fake freckles on her white glass-skinned face.

Arabella smiled, feeling satisfied on her look at the mirror. She then grabbed her phone and gave a call to Farrah.

“Hey Darling, What’s up?” The other line picked up quickly.

“Hmmm… I am going out.” Hesitating if she needs to tell Farrah where she’s going. She knew that her friend will go frantic.

She changed her mind. She didn’t have much time left to talk. It would take her more than 30 minutes to Sky Corporation building. She decided to report it to Farrah after her appointment with that man Bill Sky.

“I just missed you. Let’s grab dinner together later. Okay?” Arabella continued without giving Farrah a chance to ask ‘where?’.

Farrah without any hint replied excitedly, “Sure! I will see you later.”

Arabella ended the call with relief and exited her apartment.

Sky Corporation is the tallest building in Capital Z. It has been the landmark in the city because of its grand and luxurious design comparable to a 5- star hotel.

Holding the business card in her hand, she entered Sky Corporation and went to the reception area.

“Good Afternoon! How may I help you, ma’am?” The blonde receptionist professionally welcomed her with a big smile.

She saw five receptionists in a long counter. They are all wearing black and white suit paired with black short- skirt uniform. They were fully made -up with pony tailed hair.

They all look like models in a fashion TV, very slim and with the same height as 6’0”. ‘Wow! Not bad! Impressive!' Arabella thought.

“I am looking for Mr. Bill Sky.” She immediately responded to the blonde receptionist.

The blonde receptionist and the other two who heard her stop for a moment and stared at her from head to toe.

“Do you have an appointment ma’am?” the blonde receptionist retorted blatantly as this was her first time seeing an ugly woman wanting to see their CEO.

Feeling vexed with their reactions, she held a smile up to her ears, lifted up her chin and with a proud voice she said “Yes. He is waiting for me and he is expecting me in his office while we speak.”

The three receptionists were stunned for a moment. No one could make their CEO wait. ‘Who is this girl? Who does she think she is?’

The blonde receptionist quickly dialed the line in the CEO office ‘of course she couldn’t afford to delay her CEO’s appointment’, then the secretary picked up the call and in just a minute someone was sent down to pick Arabella up.

The three receptionists were all dumbfounded. ‘What's so special about this ugly girl?’ They’ve been working there for a long time and no one was treated like this by their cold CEO.

“Good Afternoon Ms. Arabella! I am Debbie, the assistant secretary of the CEO. This way, please.” Another tall woman with a model figure greeted her. This time the woman has long hair and is fully made from top to toe. She is wearing a white suit that perfectly fits her curved and white short skirt that shows her long white legs.

“Hi!” Arabella smiled stiffly. ‘What else can she say aside from Hi!? She didn’t even know why she’s there.’

‘It seems that this Bill Sky likes beautiful and sexy women a lot. I bet he is a scumbag, a playboy!’ Arabella thought, rolling her eyes while following Debbie to the elevator.

'Well, in that case, my disguise is perfect! He will be disgusted upon seeing me and will dismiss me right away. Problem solved! I just have to play well to settle this out and live peacefully.’ She smiled surely as if she already knew what’s going to happen.

The exclusive large elevator went up to 84th floor. Debbie is just silent, so was she. ‘I think they were trained not to mind other people’s business.’ Arabella thought in silence.
