You Can Run But You Can't Hide My Contractual Wife

Chapter 387: Her Loudest Cry

“Arabella… get sober now! I have to go back to my fiancée. Do you understand?” Bill’s tone carried

annoyance.

It was impatient and his expression too.

He didn’t like someone to hinder his plan of leaving especially when he was in a hurry and no one

dared only this woman.

He looked at her with killer eyes but Arabella mustered all her courage to stop him tonight.

She refused to be just his mistress.

A hidden secret affair.

No way!

She was once his wife and she should be in Trishia’s position right now if only Trishia didn’t trick Bill

Sky.

“Stay here for tonight.” Arabella sounded stubborn.

She was not pleading but she was stating what she wanted and what he was going to do for the night.

It was just rightful that he was going to stay with her rather than to stay with Trishia just like what he did

in the morning.

Bill slept with Trishia on the same bed.

Just remembering it, gave her a sharp pinch in her heart.

She didn’t know what she was doing but she felt she needed to tame Bill.

She could not let him go back to Trishia.

Breaking his schedule tonight was the start of ruling his world.

If he didn’t like it then that’s gonna be a big problem but at this point, she would just cross the bridge

when she got there.

Arabella was clenching her fists secretly just to stabilize herself and got more of her courage to bicker

with him.

“I told you, if you leave tonight, you will not see me again.” She had to be firm to show him that he

could not just hide her there in his penthouse forever.

She would just lay there on his bed and wait for his coming based on his schedule.

That would not happen to her.

She had no plan to be his fun time when he had free time.

Bill looked at her like he wanted to swallow her in whole.

He folded his arms in front of him as he strode closely to Arabella.

His footsteps made her tremble especially seeing him coming so close.

His eyes were dangerous and his approach was very domineering.

She quickly took a few steps back until her back reached the hard surface.

Bill stopped leaving just an inch gap between their bodies.

His angry handsome face was so close to her.

She could feel the tiny hairs behind her neck raised and her heartbeat was racing so fast.

She heaved a heavy sigh as she tried to be still tough in front of him.

She had to show him that she was not scared of him and she had to give justice to her words.

He needed to see her determination to leave him if he chose Trishia tonight.

She met her predator eyes as she clenched her fists hard.

“Are you threatening me?” Bill frowned deeply.

His tone carried arrogance. “Can you remind me, who is that woman who deliberately threw herself to

me and with all the effort to push herself just to prove something?” Bill’s tone was full of sarcasm.

His expression was intimidating and arrogant.

He was like a jerk and he seemed he didn’t mind being a jerk in front of her.

Even though Bill started to treat her badly, she was not losing her hope.

Though her courage was slowly fading but she would not give in to him.

“Look, you don’t have to be so arrogant to me. I know I was to blame but… I am telling the truth. You

just have to believe me.” Arabella answered as she clenched her fists hard.

She felt her knees soften.

Bill pressed her body against the hard door.

He had no gentleness in his expression.

He was angry with her.

Arabella stood firm.

She was not showing him that she was already scared of him.

She was unsure what Bill could do to her but she was sure that she would not give in to him.

“What is this all about? Tell me… Why are you suddenly acting like that?” Bill sounded with a controlled

temper.

His expression was so annoyed with what she suddenly acting upfront to him. “And what about the

contract? Why did you tear it apart, huh?! Explain yourself now because I don’t have time to read

what’s in your stubborn mind!” Bill was obviously controlling his temper for her but he couldn’t just

decipher her mood.

It made him very irritated.

This woman for him was very stubborn and untamed.

“That’s it! That contract of yours sucks!” Now, she remembered the contract and she could not control

screaming at him. “Why do you want me to be here? Why do you want to hide me here, huh?” She

complained with a voice full of irritation. “Bill, I come to you with a serious motive. I told you, that Trishia

Meyer is dangerous. She is tricking you! She is a vicious woman ever since. Come on! Come out to

your senses, Bill. She is not the sweet girl you knew!” Arabella’s voice was enraged.

Just the thought of Trishia, her whole nervous system seemed to tense up due to extreme anger.

“Just stop!” Bill suddenly roared.

His expression was very angry as he punched the surface behind her.

She had a jump scare as she didn’t expect Bill would act that harshly.

What she didn’t like was how he reacted because she was slandering Trishia in front of him.

She immediately trembled inside but she refused to stop.

“You should be the one to stop!” She screamed scolding him.

She knew her eyes would be going to be wet soon but she held her stubborn tears from coming.

She didn’t want to cry and show him some weaknesses.

She stood firm meeting his dangerous eyes. “Bill, I am telling the truth. Why can’t you believe me?” She

sounded without no trace of surrendering her stand to him.

“Okay, okay… let’s do this,” Bill muttered like complaining but his tone was mellow. He seemed trying

to sort something. “Where’s your evidence?” Bill frowned deeply while staring at her.

Then he smirked.

His eyes were waiting for her positive answer.

They were provoking her and they seemed to know that she had nothing but still trying to make her

look stupid.

Arabella looked down trying to avoid his annoying stare and gulped as his eyes were right.

She had nothing.

She had no evidence to support her words.

Seeing Arabella’s uneasy expression, Bill smirked mockingly.

His eyes went narrow like he was seeing her so little.

“See? Nothing! You don’t have anything! And that makes your words baseless!” Bill roared full of

annoyance in his tone.

He was scolding Arabella like he wanted her to accept the truth that she had already lost the game and

her stand.

Bill massaged his temple and he seemed trying to gather his patience for Arabella.

“Bill, can you just trust me?” Arabella felt like losing everything.

She didn’t have evidence and Bill would never believe in just some baseless words.

“Look! You keep on slandering someone in front of me without any proof but what about you?” Bill

pressed her again against the wall. “You… I have all the evidence that you abandoned me and your

son to marry another man.” Bill looked at her like he was going to eat her. “You live with another man’s

house. Instead of taking care of your own son, you took care of another’s son. I didn’t need such

evidence to remember you and how dare you! Asking me to trust you, huh?” It was the deepest frown

she ever saw from Bill. Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org

His predatory eyes were looking at her like she was the worst person in the world.

Arabella felt his extreme fury at her.

She couldn’t meet his scorching eyes anymore.

How could she explain to him the reason why she married Eric before?

It was a big mistake if she only knew that Bill was not the culprit in her life.

If she only knew Bill saved her seven years ago.

She would not be so bitter toward him and she would not curse him every day.

If she only knew what really happened that night, she would not try her best to escape from him.

She would stick to him forever if that’s what he wanted.

She would love him truthfully and would never have any thoughts of marrying her brother, Eric.

“Believe me, Bill, I will give you all the evidence you want sooner,” Arabella uttered determined.

Bill just looked at her seriously.

He just couldn’t believe that this girl is very hard-headed.

She was really testing his limits.

“If you say so, princess… but until that time comes… just step aside for now. Will you?” He asked

sarcastically.

Arabella felt she was melting in Bill’s arrogant gaze.

She gritted her teeth trying to muster more of her courage.

“No!” She blurted out firmly. “I will not let you go tonight,” Arabella added stubbornly.

Bill’s face would not be interpreted in one word.

He was very displeased but somehow, he was also amazed by her stubbornness and her guts to defy

him.

The only person who defies him was her.

She was very awful yet unbelievable.

“Don’t make me repeat myself. Step aside now.” Bill’s tone was calm now but it carried the dangerous

warning.

Arabella was scared of him but still, she had no plan to give in.

Bill was running out of patience.

His expression was already not good and had no room for any negotiations.

It pained her heart seeing Bill was so eager to go back for Trishia.

Arabella stood still even her knees turned weak.

She had no plan to follow Bill nor let him pass as she met his impatient eyes.

She could feel Bill was very determined to go home too and she was determined not to let him out.

Who would win?

And who had the most determination?

Suddenly, Arabella took off her bathrobe and threw it on the floor.

Bill was stunned by her guts.

The girl in front of him was suddenly naked.

Bill heaved a very deep sigh.

On the other hand, Hanna woke up in a strange room.

Her mind quickly panicked.

All she remembered was she was with Arabella drinking in a bar.

Bill called and she answered the phone.

She knew he was coming for Arabella but she could not remember if he appeared or not.

She closed her eyes again as she massaged her temple trying to remember everything and why she

was inside a room.

‘Yeah… she closed her eyes as she waited for Arabella to come back. She was going to inform her that

Bill Sky called and he was coming to get her but then… she fell asleep.’ Hanna easily connected the

dots of the night’s event but what she could not figure out was who brought her there and where she

was now until her eyes landed on a back at the edge of the bed.

The person was sitting on the edge of the bed and she was seeing his back.

Without seeing his face, she already knew who’s the owner of the very familiar broad back.

Eric Grant.

He was sitting silently on the edge of the bed like he was waiting for her to wake up.

She was instantly caught in a mess.

In a very big mess.

She suddenly felt very nervous and at the same, her anger with him flared up.

She could not forget how he punished her that night amidst her pleading.

He didn’t listen to her and he believed all the lies he heard rather than believing and trusting her.

His love was unreal because if he really loved her, Eric would choose to believe her.

He would listen to her and he would give her a chance to explain herself but he didn’t.

He already gave her the guilty verdict even without a proper trial.

‘Why he is here?’

‘Why he brought her there?’

‘Why he got her?’

There were so many questions in her mind but she had no time to ask him.

She despised him so much and she had a flight to catch.

She was ready to go away from him and she didn’t expect to see him for the last time.

‘Is he here to punish her again?’

‘Is what he did to her that night still not enough?’

Hanna could feel her inside trembling even her heart.

It turned very heavy.

She had to get out of the place fast.

She didn’t want to see Eric anymore as she swore to herself that she would do anything not to see him

again.

She would live and start a new life without his presence in her life.

With her thoughts, Hanna quickly got out of the thick quilt and jumped out of bed.

She hurriedly ran towards the door as she had no words for Eric.

It was better this way.

Her silence was her loudest cry.

When she was about to open the door, a strong hand caught her wrist.

Her heart instantly jolted.

She didn’t need to turn around to see who was the owner of the hand.

His explicit scent immediately wafted her nostrils.

Eric Grant.

He was the only man who wore this elegant scent which was her nose’s addiction.

“We have to talk.” Eric’s voice behind her was so deep and serious and it made her tiny hair raise.

Hanna didn’t want to talk to him or see him again.

She didn’t turn around.

She looked at the door and tried to open it with all her might without talking to Eric and seeing him but

she failed as Eric pushed the door strongly and locked it again.

After he grabbed her and she was quickly shoved into his hard chest.

She closed her eyes.

She wanted to cry but she held it.

There was a boiling anger in her heart towards him.

“Don’t touch me! I don’t want to talk to you! I don’t want to see you again! I hate you!” Hanna suddenly

roared bursting with emotions.

The tears she was holding were dripping unstoppable.
