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

Chapter 72 : What Love Can Do

Arabella and Bill’s eyes met. In her eyes, anxiety, sadness, disgust and jealousy could be seen while in

his eyes, it was full of disdain.

“Oh… So, look who’s here?” Jayson sounded like he could trigger a fight as he tried to score with Bill.

“Jayson, please stop. You promise me.” Arabella with a very low sound whispered at Jayson.

Jayson looked at her and couldn’t help to pinched Arabella’s cheeks in front of anyone. Then he

blinked to show his approval, then he clung to her shoulder again as he felt a bit nauseous from

drinking too much.

Feeling the scornful judgement from Bill, she quickly continued to stride forward in the small free space

and that was the only time she saw Bill’s other companies. Gab with Wendy and Marcus with another

girl. It seemed the boys were having a group date tonight. No wonder, cousins think alike. She then felt

sorry for her best friend Farrah. How could this Gab still date his ex-girlfriend when he had already a

new girlfriend?

“How sweet!” With a flirtatious voice, Trishia spoke up.

“What on earth is happening? That woman is something!” Marcus commented. He couldn’t believe

Bill’s woman was with Jayson Hansen.

Since Arabella was already caught in the act, Trishia, didn’t say anything more to provoke Arabella, but

she let go of a wicked smile. For her, playing silent on the situation would build her good reputation to

Bill. Knowing him, his type was the total opposite of her. So, she would play the opposite to suit his

taste. In simple term, her plan this time was to play the angel.

On the other hand, Bill was quite stunned to see Arabella at the bar with Jayson Hansen. The anger

inside him was bursting. Earlier, he couldn’t stop thinking about her as she mentioned that she was sick

and that she wanted to go home first. He even planned to bring her hot soup and food good to cure her

sickness. He thought, if Arabella would ask, why he brought those foods? Then he could just simply

answer her as a return for his lunch meal prepared by her. By that, there would be no awkwardness

between them, but when he arrived at their house, her butler said, she was still not at home. He

suddenly felt worried and even felt guilty for not accompanying her. His heart was clenched by that guilt

only to find out that she was with Jayson Hansen drinking and enjoying the night. He hated himself, but

he hated her the most!

After that night of torturing her, he came up with a decision not to force himself to her anymore specially

in bed. He hated himself for becoming a wild beast that he, himself, couldn’t control every time he

touched her. He had felt pity on her when he saw her curled her weak body in the bed and even heard

her crying in silence. That time, he promised not to touch her again against her will and let her live the

way she wanted. Seeing her in the office should be enough for him, but he was wrong, even if he

buried himself in his work, his mind was still thinking of her lustfully. How could this woman become the

center of his fantasy? With that, when his cousins invited him to drink, he instantly said yes to suppress

his unusual desire feeling towards Arabella.

Seeing Arabella and Jayson together, Bill then confirmed that the reason why she didn’t want to be his

woman, it’s because she was not satisfied with only one man. He had met her again with William

Zimmer and was introduced to be her boyfriend and now with Jayson Hansen. What a cheating

woman?

They had already entered their VIP room, but Bill still had his mind with Arabella and Jayson. His grip

on his glass was very tight that he could make it break anytime. His scorching eyes were bottomless.

Seeing his reaction, nobody wanted to disturb him not even Trishia. She knew Bill’s face could kill and

she didn’t want to be killed by just uttering a single word.

“Guys, I’m sorry. Let’s call it a night. I have to go.” Gab on the side finally spoke up. He was long quiet

on the side as she couldn’t stop worrying about his situation. When he visited his bar for work, Wendy

and Trishia showed up in his office. Wendy then called Marcus for a drink and Marcus called up Bill. It

was quick and they were supposed to be only 5 but Marcus unexpectedly brought a girl so they looked

like having a group date. Not even Arabella’s eyes didn’t miss to capture it. Gab was uncontrollably

sweating at the thought of Farrah.

“Hey, don’t be such a kill joy.” Wendy with a flirtatious voice put her hand on Gab’s shoulder.

“Come on guys! You all know that I already have a girlfriend.” Gab replied and quickly took away

Wendy’s hand.

“Since when did you become so tame?” Marcus added to provoke his cousin. Content held by NôvelDrama.Org.

“Since I met her.” Gab then answered with a blink and smile. “Drinks on me! You guys just enjoy the

night.” He then strode out hurriedly.

“I really don’t know if he’s still the Gab I know. Or maybe a powerful spirit is controlling his body.”

Absent-mindedly, Marcus murmured in disbelief.

“Well, maybe that’s what true love can do.” The new girl spoke up and her words made a ‘ding’ to

everyone’s ears.

After hearing her, all heads in the room turned to look at her annoyingly.

In a nearby hotel, Arabella checked-in Jayson. As the latter couldn’t stand by his own, Arabella had to

assist him inside his room. She tossed Jayson directly to his bed, but when she was about to exit the

room,

“I love you so much, Babe. Arabella you are the only person I love the most.” Jayson uttered in his

drunkenness with his eyes close. “I want to be with you forever Babe. No one can change you in my

heart.”

Arabella stopped on her way out. She turned to look at Jayson, who had already collapsed. His

handsome face was still the same and he still had his calm whenever he sleeps. Those words of him

made her heart clenched tightly. Remembering her current situation, she unconsciously sat herself on

the floor mat. Then she cried again. She felt Jayson’s pain and she hated herself so much for not

choosing him instead she gave her virginity to Bill. Maybe if Jayson was the father of her child, she

would have not encountered difficulties. Too bad it’s Bill. The Bill, who was at this time with another

woman. The time when she needed him the most, he was with Trishia. The man who loved her the

most was dying inside and she couldn’t even give same quantity of love for Jayson. How cruel of her to

make the person who loved her suffer?

If the father of her child is Jayson, then she was sure that Jayson would put all his time and love to their

child. Surely, her child would grow up like him. A loving father and a responsible man but she couldn’t

attain to use Jayson. She appreciated his love for her, but just that, no giving of high hopes and she

could only offer him herself, as a friend.

“Good morning!” Arabella woke up with swollen eyes when she heard a deep but sweet voice. She

quickly opened her eyes to see the owner of the voice while trying to remember the scene that put her

in her current situation.

“What are you doing on the floor when the bed is so wide that could fit us both?” Jayson put up a

playful smile. Then that was the time, Arabella remembered everything. Last night, due to her

excessive crying, she had slept in her sitting position while her back was leaning on the edge of the

bed.

“Okay. I have to go now. I still have to work.” Arabella then quickly stood up and was about to leave, but

Jayson caught her hand.

“Hey, easy. Since you took care of me last night, at least let me drive you to your office, okay? But

before that, let us have a quick breakfast. We still have plenty of time.” Jayson said without any hint of

who’s her boss.

“Plenty of time? “She rolled her eyes. “Look, I can manage and I have to go now.” Arabella refuted.

“Okay! Okay. But maybe you could fix yourself first?” Jayson then dragged her to the door of the

restroom.

After a while, Arabella came out and they had first a drive thru before they headed to Sky Corporation.

When Jayson heard that she was working with Bill, he’s shocked for a while, but Arabella explained

everything to him that made him feel satisfied.

They arrived in front of the tallest and biggest building in the city, Sky Corporation.

“Thank you!” Arabella was in a hurry that she didn’t wait to let Jayson opened her door.

“Good Luck! And don’t forget to eat your breakfast. Remember your baby inside your tummy.” Realizing

that Arabella was in a hurry, Jayson reminded her quickly.

Arabella with huge steps, walked towards the entrance of the building, but someone caught her arm.

She stopped and looked at the person who had blocked her way.

“Where have you been?” William with a haggard look showed up in front of her. His eye bags and dark

circles showed that he didn’t sleep the whole night. “I’ve been calling you but your phone is off.”

William’s facial expression was serious as his grip on her had tightened. Arabella was stunned all of a

sudden. What happened to William? She forgot to charge her cell phone yesterday because of her

shockable situation.

“William, it hurts.” Arabella blurted out.

“Oh. Sorry. I’m sorry.” William quickly took away his hand on her wrist. “I’m just worried about you.” He

added scratching the back of his head.

“It’s okay, but I have to go now or I will be late. See you again.” Arabella then ran to the entrance

without waiting for his reply.

In the office, there was still no Bill’s secretary. She sat in the office and prepared herself to work, but

she felt a sudden movement on her tummy. That was the time she remembered her baby in her womb.

She smiled when she remembered Jayson’s reminder. Then she ate stroking her tummy.

After a while, through a glass wall, she saw Bill coming and went directly to his office without glancing

at her room. The feeling of floating in the air, Arabella wanted to check on him her workstation in the

floor. Before anything else, she couldn’t just leave her work because she conceived her boss’ child. In

the meantime, she needed this work to save for her and her baby’s future before her tummy would get

obvious to everyone. After that, maybe she could get out of the company.

After eating, she quickly stood up and strode to Bill’s office. Knocking would be no use, so she got

inside without his permission. When she got inside, she saw Bill was lying on the sofa with his eyes

closed and look very exhausted. ‘Hmmm… Good for you! Maybe he’s with Trishia the whole night and

doing all those nasty stuffs.’ Arabella’s thought was mocking him, but deep inside she had felt a sting.

“Ahem!” Arabella pretended to cough to get Bill’s attention.

Then Bill slowly opened his eyes. He sat up and loosen his neck tie.

“What?” Felling dissatisfied from being awakened, Bill looked at her with a stubborn look.

“Hmmm… I can’t see your secretary so I don’t have no one to ask. Where’s my office?” She tried to be

stabled from his awful stare.

“Don’t you know every second of my time is important? I don’t have time to explain. Now, get out!” Bill’s

ruthless voice came out. His face was very annoyed that she couldn’t tell what had happened.

His scornful words, gave her the heebie-jeebies. Arabella then turned and ran away.

Bill was left in the room with a great displeasure on the face. He couldn’t sleep last night thinking of

Arabella and Jayson together, but he suppressed his thoughts. He might be just thinking too much, but

the scene of her this morning, justified his thought last night. Arabella was still wearing the same

clothes as yesterday. That could only be mean, she was with Jayson all night.

‘That woman!’ Bill cursed her in his heart, while clenching his fist.
