You Can Run But You Can't Hide My Contractual Wife novel Chapter 129

After 6 years, Arabella saw the person she cursed in her life and she was not prepared for it.

Never she’s prepared for it.

All she prayed was not to see him anymore.

Why is this so happen so sudden?

She just went back to this city, why of all the people, she had to see him?

If not for her mother, she would never step foot in Capital Z ever again.

With her steady career, Adam and Damien by her side, she was already satisfied with her life.

Now, how on earth she was suddenly with a monster trapped in the dark?

How could she run away?

How could she escape from him?

No!

It’s a matter of who will come out alive.

No!

She still has Adam. She could not die here.

But could she really kill him?

No!

She’s not a murderer but one thing is for sure, she will do anything to defend her life and to come out alive for her son.

“What made you think that you are allowed to come back here?” In the dark, a life-threatening question echoed inside.

Arabella shivered in fright but she tried to stop it.

There’s no backing out now.

She had no escape now.

He already noticed her.

The man still didn’t move. His steadiness made Arabella more nervous but she suppressed every fear she had. She needs her wits and courage to face him again. Living as a single mom for 6 years without any help from the father of her child made her tough in any way.

That's what she thought but meeting Bill again, she still feels undesirable fear inside.

Gathering all her bold guts, she fixed herself and stood up proud. Then, she folded her arms in front and slowly raised her chin.

“Is that how you welcome me?” Arabella’s voice was no softness but she was really feeling her heart was going to explode due to restlessness if she would not get out there on time.

“Tough tongue.” Bill remarked with a mockery in his voice. “You sure you can handle that in the long run?” He asked again without turning his body to her.

“There’s no long-run here. I don’t have a plan to stay here for a long time.” Arabella quickly replied with a proud tough voice.

Bill didn’t talk anymore and she felt the urge to assure him that she’s not going to stay there for too long. This is also to protect Adam.

“Look! I am not here to ruin you. My mom is dying. She needs me for one last time. After this, you will not see me again.” Arabella spoke with briefness and assuredness. Yes! She swore not to see Capital Z ever again.

Never ever again!

“Then maybe, since I am here, we can process our divorce legally. How’s that, Mr. Sky?” Yes. This is important. They should be free from burdening and killing each other. They deserve to marry the person they love and it should be right for her to give that to Damien in the future.

After her proclamation, finally, Bill turned around and walked towards him. His silhouette was getting closer and closer to her.

“Stop!” Arabella yelled. Her back was already touching the wall, she had no free space to go.

“Do you really think, you can just come back here and go away?” Bill with full of sarcasm said while walking closer to her.

“Do you really think you can order me just like that?” He took another step.

“6 years…. I want to see what you’ve got.” Bill stopped with a meter gap away from Arabella.

The uneasiness made her mind a mess. She could not think properly because of his exquisite scent. There’s something in it that awakened her senses.

“I begged you. Please let me be with my mom for the last time. I promise you. I will be out of your life forever.” For her, she had to make a strategy. It seemed to be being tough just triggered him so might as well beg at him. Who knows he might listen? Though it’s impossible, she had to take her chances. By doing this, she was also protecting Adam.

“What if I don’t want you to be out of my life anymore?” His voice was serious and provoking.

“Hahaha. You are joking, Mr. Sky.” Arabella laughed bitterly. She couldn’t believe what she just heard but Bill is Bill. He’s not going to give her a good life in Capital Z. Maybe that’s what his main purpose in life is, to make her suffer.

“Joking is not my thing and you know that.” Bill plainly stated.

“It’s been six years. Still not growing up?” Arabella felt her irritation was about to explode but she tried her best not to deal with the matter hysterically. She should be yelling at him unstoppably and choking him to death for making her life miserable 6 years ago.

But she’s not like him. She’s not a murderer!

“Hmmm…” Bill muttered crossing his arms in front. He was not affected by her insult but he was more triggered and challenged.

“It seemed 6 years didn’t teach you anything,” Bill added with full sarcasm.

“Don’t worry, I think I will personally focus on teaching you.” With a voice full of arrogance, he turned his back on her and went back to his position. Then suddenly the light opened and the elevator went down smoothly.

What the heck?!

Is the elevator stranded purposely?

Bill Sky.

What can’t he do?

Nothing.

How could she forget that even people’s fate he could twist?

Before the elevator opened,

“Your 1st day is tomorrow. Don’t be late.” Bill said without looking at her behind. Then, he went out walking domineeringly.
