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

Old Habit

A contract… Property © NôvelDrama.Org.

Another contract …

Arabella was stunned as her thoughts were running wild.

When all she thought was that Bill made this day special, she was wrong.

She was seriously wrong.

Bill Sky is always Bill Sky.

Even though he lost some of his memories, he never failed to do what he used to, especially when

dealing with things and her.

From the start, she knew Bill would never enter into a situation without a contract.

He always dealt with people like he was in a business meeting and closed the negotiations with a

contract signing.

Having a contract was his way to deal with matters pertaining to people that surrounded him and that

included her.

That was why she became his contractual wife a long time ago.

They started with a contract and that contract made her life miserable.

Arabella wondered if Trishia Meyer had also a contract but of course, she doubted.

Bill treated her as the savior of his life so Bill surely spared her.

Arabella gritted her teeth to stabilize herself.

She couldn’t believe that she could receive another contract from Bill Sky after a long time.

What did he want now?

She was eager to know and yet she felt nervous.

She felt scared about what was inside the contract.

Arabella took her seat.

She drank the milk to make sure she would absorb all the words written in the contract.

She had no hint about Bill’s matter and why he made another contract for her.

Then to cut the suspense, she grabbed it again and started to read the contract.

Earlier, Bill laid the woman in his arms on the bed.

He brought Arabella to one of his penthouses in the city.

Keenly looking at her, she was very calm when sleeping.

She was the complete opposite when her eyes were opened.

The nagging stubborn type of woman who always tried to play tough in front of him.

Bill realized that this girl always made him angry for many reasons and sometimes for no reason at all.

She was the only girl who made him lose all his self-control.

Everything about her made him angry but also everything about her made him calm inside.

He felt very complicated with her and himself.

Though he had lost his memory, he knew that he had no tolerance for stubborn people and he never

gave second chances but with Arabella, he couldn’t take her out of his league.

He didn’t know why he felt this way when this girl had already betrayed him.

She was married to another man and yet she kept on pushing herself to him.

She was very desperate to be noticed that she even threw herself at him.

Plus, the fact that she was claiming that she was the woman he loved.

Bill frowned deeply as he was sure of something.

Love isn’t for him.

He still had memories of him when it comes to women.

He never had any commitments with them and of course, that is why he always had a contract

prepared for everyone.

He didn’t want to be tangled with anyone.

He didn’t want any repeat after and most of all he didn’t want anything to do about them after.

He is always a busy man and it was a long-time practice for him that he could not give a commitment to

women.

For him, women were just his toys.

Just for him to release his urging needs as a man but when he met Arabella Jones, he started to

question his arrogance.

He couldn’t believe that a woman like her could change his way of seeing things.

While he was looking at Arabella who was now lying on the bed peacefully, Bill could not take away his

stare at her beautiful face.

His slender index finger gently caressed her flawless reddish cheek.

He didn’t know he had to ride an extra mile to see her tonight when he already had Trishia by his side.

He was sure of himself that commitment to Trishia had nothing to do with love.

He was just granting her wish and this was in exchange for saving his life.

With Arabella, his mind was always unstable.

He hated the fact that this woman could make him uneasy just like that but admittedly, he could not

deny the fact that he didn’t want to lose her either.

When he saw her with another man, he was irked so much.

He felt like buying the small bar and shutting it down right away.

It made him narrow his eyes and he could feel the burning anger in all his veins.

That was the only time he recognized that he could not share her with anybody.

He didn’t want to see her with any other man.

He felt suffocated and he felt like he was losing his sanity.

“You are mine.” With eyes pierced to the sleeping beauty, Bill muttered in the air. “Only mine,” He

added in a deep possessive tone.

Bill spent the night with Arabella on the same bed.

He couldn’t believe that he did take a deep nap with her when he always had a hard time sleeping.

Even though he wanted to sleep more, he had to get up and go back to Trishia.

Inside Trishia’s mansion, everything shattered into pieces.

“What happened here?” Bill asked the servants who were still cleaning the broken vases and mirrors

on the floors.

“Hmmm…” No one wanted to answer.

They all bowed at Bill like they were avoiding his eyes.

“Speak.” He turned to Greta who he knew had all the information when it was all about Trishia.

Greta trembled with his sharp glance.

She quickly held her breath and stood up properly to report.

“Mr. Sky, madame is not in a good mood after she returned this dawn,” Greta said truthfully.

Even though she didn’t want to speak but she felt the need to if she still wanted to keep her job.

Bill frowned deeply.

Then without saying anything to the servants, he quickly went to Trishia’s bedroom. It was locked.

“Keys!” Bill's loud voice echoed inside.

The servants quickly moved.

One of them immediately handed the keys to Bill.

He quickly opened it.

Inside Trishia’s room, everything was a mess.

All the mirrors were broken.

The lampshades were thrown to the ground.

Glasses were shattered and chairs were broken too.

Trishia had seemed to lose her temper and had run hysterically.

Bill looked at Trishia who was lying on the carpet of the floor.

She had a bottle of liquor in her hand.

He didn’t need to ask what happened to her to understand the situation.

When he got out, surely, she followed him.

Then the next thing she witnessed was all not to her liking.

Bill heaved a very deep sigh then he got Trishia’s bottle and threw it away and carried Trishia to her

bed.

“Bill… sweetheart… is that… is that…you already?” Trishia suddenly muttered while slowly opening her

eyes. Her tone was weak and tired. She seemed to wait for him and stayed awake for the whole night.

“Yeah… sleep more. I’m here.” Bill got her hand to make her feel his presence.

“No… I don’t want to sleep anymore.” Trishia stubbornly muttered in a soft voice.

“Shhh… you need to.” Bill pitied her look.

She seemed to just sleep on the floor a while ago and her body smelled alcohol and she seemed to

drink the whole liquor in the bottle.

“Okay, but you have to sleep with me, please. Just stay beside me, please.” She looked at Bill

begging.

Bill looked at her and nodded.

He felt he had to compromise with Trishia as she was going to be his future wife.

“Okay.” He answered.

Trishia felt very happy with his answer.

She quickly moved to the side.

Bill lay on her bed.

Trishia quickly hugged him.

After everything, she felt relieved today.

This was the first time, she could hug him on the bed.

Trishia felt like she was on cloud nine.

The pissed she felt had quickly gone.

Hugging Bill on the bed was already an achievement and she would not miss it.

“Sweetheart, I want to stay like this with you forever.” She muttered so sweetly.

Bill tapped her hair gently.

“Shhh… go to sleep now.” He muttered to Trishia but his mind was with Arabella.

He felt guilty about his actions but he could not let go of Arabella.

He didn’t want to see her with another man.

He would go crazy just thinking of it.

Bill closed his eyes while he let his mind be occupied with the woman who he left in his penthouse.

Meanwhile, Arabella read the contract after she finished her milk.

She wanted to make sure that she was already sober before anything else.

When she finished reading it, she was caught in between throwing it or signing the contract.

It was stated there that Bill wanted her to be his woman and only him is allowed to touch her.

She smirked at the fact that even though Bill had lost some of his memories, old habits had never been

forgotten.

She didn’t know if she was going to sign it.

First, she wanted to be with him so she could gather evidence.

She had to live with them so she could monitor what was Trishia doing or what she was planning to do

but the contract was offering her the penthouse for her own place.

As her eyes wandered the whole place, she was not at a loss in the situation.

It was too big and all the decorations were elegant.

Who could argue with the taste of the billionaire, Bill Sky?

All his properties were grand.

Bill wanted her to live there and every Friday, he would come and visit her.

“What the!” She could not help muttering in the air.

She could feel her annoyance surging up.

Bill would spare his time for her every Friday, What’s on Friday?

Then the rest of the days for Trishia?

She could not help but curse the contract in the air.

It seemed Bill was not taking her seriously.

He wanted her to be his mistress and she had to follow some rules written in the contract.

She was not allowed to go back to Trishia’s mansion.

She was not allowed to make a scene with his future wife.

This is to protect his wife and his name from scandal to the public.

She was not allowed to go to his office.

Bill wanted to have an affair with her but he wanted to hide her.

Bill wanted to have a secret affair with her.

Arabella clenched her fists. She didn’t know but she was angry with Bill.

She felt treated very cheaply.

As her memory brought her back to their conversation last night.

He really believed that she is a cheap woman who would settle to be his secret affair.

This could not be happening to her.

She would never be his mistress.

She should stop the wedding no matter what it takes.

She should stop the evil doings of Trishia and save Bill from her.

And these would not be accomplished if she would live there.

So, without any hesitation, she grabbed the contract and her things and went away.

She was going to face Bill Sky and would make him change the contract.

She would not sign only if he would agree that she would live together with them in one house.

It wasn’t easy for her because if she had to think about it, Bill was giving her the air that she needed the

most.

Away from the suffocating Trishia Meyer but at this point, saving Bill was more important than what she

felt with Trishia Meyer.

When she got out of the luxurious building, she quickly hailed a cab.

Luckily, there were many cabs in the area.

She could see the building was in the heart of the city where everything was there.

The street was so busy like everything was working.

People were walking on the street hurriedly.

The parks were almost empty.

Then she remembered Adam.

They loved to play at the park.

She missed him so much that she quickly felt her heart clenched so hard.

“Baby, I will see you soon. I will save your dad first.” She muttered in the air as her eyes were

becoming teary.

Just thinking of Adam made her soft and yet tough at the same time.

For her, saving Bill was saving her family.

When she would see her son Adam again, she would give her a completely happy family.

Arabella swore it to her heart.

After a long ride, they finally arrived.

Since she had been given access to the compound, all the guards already knew about her.

They entered the compound without any problem.

With Bill’s own guard, she just showed her face and then the security opened the huge gate and let her

cab drive her inside.

With the long pathway, they finally reached the front door.

She quickly transferred her fare online and then she went out quickly and stormed inside Bill’s

mansion.

The servants were greeting her but she had no time to make a long chit-chat with them.

“Where’s Mr. Sky?” She asked directly.

No one wanted to answer but someone dared to raise her voice. “I know.” Greta sounded proudly with

a meaningful smile.

Arabella just looked at her with a cold expression.

She had no time to bicker with Greta.

She just wanted to see Bill Sky urgently. “Bring me to her,” Arabella ordered.

Greta smirked meaningfully. “As you wish princess.” She obeyed but her words contained humiliation.

Arabella just held her temper.

She would not stoop so low today.

A servant like Greta was not worthy of her time now.

She needed to talk to Bill Sky urgently about the contract.

Greta guided her to Trishia’s room.

They stopped in front of her door.

Greta smirked at her. “Your Mr. Sky is here. Check for yourself. It’s open, princess.” Greta chuckled

rolling her eyes then she went away.

Arabella gritted her teeth.

This Greta would have her time after she accomplished her mission but at the moment, she had to

settle what was inside this room.

Arabella slowly grabbed the doorknob.

Her heart was racing so fast.

Thinking of Bill inside Trishia’s room, she already felt like exploding.

“Bill… Bill… Bill?” Arabella sounded as she pushed the door.

Quickly, her eyes landed on her target.
