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

Chapter 418: Not Worth Remembering

“Congratulations, Mr. Sky.” After a moment of hesitation, Bill’s driver, finally congratulate his boss who

was sitting calmly in the backseat.

“Thank you,” Bill answered plainly.

Then a deafening silence was back inside the car.

Along with it was Bill’s thought of his wedding tomorrow that he almost forgot.

His wedding with Trishia was just a thank-you gift to her for saving his life.

It was she who asked for it and tomorrow, he would grant it to her.

A grand wedding.

Bill looked outside the street.

His black orbs were deep and unreadable.

The city lights were so vivid and the street was so busy as usual.

They were caught in traffic again.

Somehow, his mind was caught wondering about his wedding with Arabella Jones.

They said that he was married her before but not a single memory appeared in his mind.

He heaved a deep sigh.

Maybe that memory was not so important to him that is why he could not remember it.

That just meant it was not worth remembering.

When the red light signaled, their car stopped again.

He could not feel any excitement for tomorrow’s event or he felt the need to prepare himself for the

event.

Bill was just satisfied to pay Trishia for what he owed to her.

Tonight, was his last night being single.

He should maybe spend it at a party or with his women but he didn’t like the idea. From NôvelDrama.Org.

Just the thought of it made him bored and he felt it was just a waste of time.

He still had many meetings lined up tonight plus he still need to attend the Senator’s dinner invitation.

With that, he had to finish his work early as possible.

After a while, his phone rang.

Looking at the caller keenly before he answered.

“Trishia,” He said plainly.

“Sweetheart, I called just to remind you of our dinner. Dad will surely not forgive us if we will not show

up.” Trishia seemed to be in a good mood again.

Her voice was back to its usual sweet vigor.

“Hmmm… I will be there.” Bill smirked while he replied.

“Oh… Okay! Then I will wait for you there,” Trishia replied like an obedient wife though she was irked

inside as Bill would not come to pick her up and go to the Senator’s house together.

Trishia could not mess up this night.

Just a little bit and she would have the fulfillment of her dream.

“See you then,” Bill replied plainly then dropped the call without waiting for Trishia’s response.

His eyes wandered outside until they landed on a very familiar figure sitting beside a sidewalk stool.

Bill looked closely and he confirmed that the figure was no other than Arabella Jones.

“Stop!” When the car was about to speed up after the traffic lights signaled to green, Bill ordered.

The driver was quite stunned.

“Pull over on the side,” Bill added.

The driver followed quickly without any questions asked.

When the car stopped on the corner, Bill went out.

He felt bored earlier but seeing Arabella beside the street, he felt a bit thrilled, puzzled, and a bit of

excitement.

Bill wanted to stop himself but it was too late.

He looked at her from afar and saw that she was drinking alone.

He didn’t know but he felt angry with her seeing her alone sitting outside a convenience store drinking

without any care for the people around her.

“Such troublesome,” Bill muttered complaining in the air.

When she put her head on the table, Bill strode closer to her then he sat on the empty chair in front of

her.

Arabella kept on murmuring while her eyes were closed.

Her words made him smile for no reason.

His cute dimples showed up along with his luscious red lips parting giving way to his brilliant white

teeth.

He never saw someone who was cute as her when drunk.

Then he got the can of beer on the table and drank it.

His eyes were pierced onto her beautiful face.

Even if she was sleeping, she was still a goddess, and it angry him more thinking of why she was there

outside the store sleeping after a few drinks.

What if he didn’t see her?

What if someone grabbed her and dragged her into the corner or someone took advantage of her while

she was sleeping and drunk? Just with his thoughts, Bill absentmindedly gripped the can hard which

caused it to coil on its body's surface.

When he found himself too carried away by her, Bill stood up.

He went back inside his car.

He had already dumped her so there was no way he would take her back again.

She needed to feel the feeling of being abandoned by someone just like what she did to him and

Adam.

Bill believed that Arabella was cunning and she could ruin him.

She could ruin his relationship with Trishia because admittedly, she had a strong effect on him.

Bill knew he had to stop seeing her and he had to put an end to whatever they had.

He should stop being worried about her or being affectionate toward her.

For the first time in his life, Bill found it difficult to do.

Arabella’s presence to him was just too strong to handle.

He could not forget her beauty in his bed, her sexy body’s details, her soothing scent, and her luscious

lips running on his thumb.

Bill shook his head trying to get rid of his thoughts about Arabella.

“Let’s go,” Then he ordered his driver who was quietly waiting for his command.

The driver followed as the car moved but before it speed up, “Stop!” Bill ordered again.

His eyes looked at Arabella who was now moving in a direction. She walked unstable which made him

frown deeply.

“Follow her,” Bill ordered pointing the figure outside.

“Right away, sir.” His driver answered.

The car was running so slowly.

Good thing, Arabella crossed the street and went to another street that had only a few cars.

There was no traffic and their car could run freely.

Then she stopped in the middle of a bridge.

Bill looked at her keenly.

She was smiling then afterward, she was sad again.

Then she smiled again then she was sad again.

She was doing it repeatedly. Bill was puzzled and affected by what this girl does.

He knew she was drunk but he didn’t like her being alone outside and she was drunk.

Bill frowned deeply.

It pissed him to think of her and still continued thinking about her.

He should be working right now in his office but because of her, his time was wasted.

He should now be in a conference but because of tailing her, he didn’t make it.

Bill was angry with himself about why he couldn’t get rid of Arabella Jones.

He should leave now and leave her.

He didn’t care about her and she didn’t matter to him.

With his thought, “Let’s go,” He ordered the driver again.

The driver quickly followed his order.

The car speed up a bit.

Bill averted his look in front but then his eyes caught a glimpse in the side mirror.

Arabella was walking forward in a zigzag.

She was cold as she kept on rubbing her palms together and patted them on her cheeks repeatedly.

Her eyes and cheeks were red due to the cold wind that was brushing her skin.

And It seemed she had nowhere to go.

“Stop!” Bill ordered again for the third time.

At this point, his voice was stern.

After seeing Arabella accidentally bump into some guy on her way.

She bowed her head repeatedly to apologize.

Bill could not help but get down again.

It was a quick decision and without any hesitation.

He walked approaching her direction but she just passed him.

She seemed not to see him or not to know him like they were complete strangers.

Bill felt angrier with her act as he grabbed Arabella’s arm.

She jolted and it seemed that she was still thinking if she had to turn around or not.

Without any moment of delay, Bill pulled her toward him.

She instantly faced him shocked.

Her expression was in disbelief as her eyes grew wider.

“What?... Why?” She blurted out completely puzzled.

Bill heaved a sigh like he was troubled to see her again.

“Let’s go.” Then he uttered impatiently.

Arabella looked at his handsome face keenly.

She wanted to make sure that the man in her mind and the man in front of him were the same man.

She knew she was drunk but she didn’t like to be deceived by her eyes.

“No,” After confirming that the man in front of him was no other than Bill Sky, she answered him back

with a firm refusal in her tone.

“Get inside now,” Bill ordered again. His expression was impatient.

“I said no! And let go of me!” Arabella felt she was breaking down. With a little drive of the alcohol in

her body, it seemed all her heartaches were coming out.

“Bill, let go of me, and don’t touch me ever again!” Arabella added trying to get out of his grip but she

failed.

"Why are you so stubborn?" Bill asked pissed as he gripped tightly her two arms.

"Huh!" Arabella then laughed bitterly. Her stubborn tears skipped her eyes. "I don't talk to strangers."

She answered sarcastically as she tried to snatch her arms back.

She didn't like to be cornered by this man.

Never did she expect that she could see him again and meet him there.

She felt she had to laugh as fate was throwing a joke at her again.

He dumped her and he willfully accepted it for everyone's peace of mind.

She was ready to move on and planned her future alone.

She already starting to fix her shattered heart but then, he appeared again.

Too soon and now she was losing herself again in front of him.

Bill was really unreadable and he was giving her confusion.

"Stranger?" Bill sounded frowning deeply. His tone was obviously displeased with what he heard from

her.

"Yes, Bill. It's better that way so we don't need to talk like this and not even the need to greet each

other." With a disheartened tone, Arabella uttered firmly. "Let's forget each other and every new

memory we have." She added with a gloomy tone.

Then, once again, she tried to escape from his grip.

The air seemed to sympathize with her as it became colder.

"You want to forget everything?" Bill uttered displeased. His expression was annoyed.

Arabella looked at him. For a while, their eyes met. Then, she nodded. "Yes." She answered sincerely.

After hearing her, Bill released her. He just granted her but why her heart was aching? It was too

painful.

Arabella looked at him again. Her eyes seemed to say goodbyes then, she continued her walking in a

zigzag.

Bill was left frozen on his spot.

Arabella walked along with her tears.

She couldn't stop crying.

Why she always felt so lost and hurt whenever she encountered Bill Sky?

Arabella heaved a heavy sigh to stabilize herself.

In just the next second, her body was lifted in the air.

"Bill Sky, what are you doing?" Before she could react fully, her body was already curled downward on

his shoulder.

Bill was carrying her like a bag of potatoes. "You! Let me go!" She shouted while struggling to escape

from him.

"I will decide when are you going to forget me. Do you understand?" He was seriously angry. He

walked back to his car carrying Arabella.

"What? You are insane!" She was very annoyed at him as she didn't understand him.

She didn't understand all of him now.

"Where are you bringing me?" She asked shouting as her head was facing down.

Before Bill opened the door of his car, he jolted.

"Just in case you forget everything we had, let me remind you of everything." After Bill answered her,

he quickly stuffed her in the backseat.

"Go now," Bill ordered the driver.

Arabella settled herself properly upon seeing another person inside the car.

She went to the other side giving a big space in the middle away from Bill.

She looked at Bill puzzled and annoyed.

Bill just looked at her sternly.

"Sir, where to?" The driver then asked.

Seeing Arabella's presence, he knew there was a change in their schedule but before Bill could

answer, his phone rang again.

He answered.

"Sweetheart, I am here now," Trishia announced very sweet and excited. "Where are you? Are you

near?" She added.

Before Bill answered, he looked at Arabella who was also looking at him with a questioning look mixed

with annoyance.

"Yeah, I'm near," Bill answered while his eyes pierced into Arabella.

"I can't wait to see you again, sweetheart. I miss you already." Trishia's voice could be heard inside the

car though he wasn't on a loudspeaker.

Arabella gritted her teeth while she heaved a sigh.

"What a show-off!" She couldn't help to utter in the air.

Hearing her, Bill frowned at her deeply questioning her words.

She smirked mockingly and rolled her eyes at him.

She didn't care if he gets mad at her as she was just telling the truth.

"Okay, I will see you later," Bill replied plainly then he dropped the call.

"To the Senator's mansion," Bill replied to his driver.

Arabella looked at Bill with eyes wide.

"Then you can drop me anywhere," She uttered like ordering the driver and Bill.

No one replied. The driver was just waiting for his boss' order.

Bill seemed not to hear her. He was doing something on his phone sitting with cross legs.

"Bill, stop the car now. I want to get out." Arabella felt panic.

She never wanted to go to the Senator's house and he could not read what Bill was trying to do.

"Bill, just stop the car now!" She was already screaming at him.

Bill put down his phone and faced her.

"Didn't I tell you earlier that I will make you remember everything?" Bill said to her pissed.

"Stop the car." Bill then ordered the driver. "Get out," He added.

Finally, she felt relieved. Arabella quickly opened the door but Bill's hand stopped her.

"Not you." He said with predatory eyes pierced into her.

The driver quickly went out.

Bill followed and got the key.

Arabella found the chance to get away but Bill caught her.

He carried her again in a bridal style and stuffed her in the passenger seat.

Bill went inside the driver's seat.

He met Arabella's furious eyes.

"There's no escaping now." Bill sounded with his sharp eyes on her.
