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

Chapter 399: Shattered Heart

Arabella saw Trishia sitting on a couch elegantly holding a glass of wine.

One could easily say that she was deliberately waiting for them for a long time because the wine bottle

on the side table was already empty.

Trishia’s expression was flushed.

If Arabella was not mistaken, Trishia was a little drunk.

Her jealous eyes were scrutinizing Arabella but she didn’t care.

So what?

As for Arabella, Trishia did more hideous things to her compared to what she was doing right now.

Trishia tried to kill her many times.

She manipulated everyone so they would hate her.

She even manipulated her life.

She even tried to hurt Adam before.

Trishia tricked her so many times and not only her but Bill Sky and the people around her.

Trishia would not be in her position now if she didn’t trick Bill Sky.

Compared to all she did to Arabella, being with Bill was nothing even having s*x with him was nothing.

Without any guilt in her eyes, Arabella met Trishia’s scorching eyes.

She smirked mockingly at Trishia which made the latter angrier.

Just when she thought, she won already, Bill let go of her hand.

Arabella suddenly felt sad.

Very sad and disappointed.

Bill's reaction was calm and still collected seeing Trishia but he quickly let go of her hand.

His expression was too opposite from men who were caught cheating with their other women.

Thorough explanations couldn't be seen on his face.

Even the fear of being caught by his future wife wasn't present at all.

Arabella felt an intense pang in her heart.

Trying to hold the bursting emotion, she gathered her strength to stand tall and not stumble.

She acted unaffected in front of Trishia and Bill.

She just never thought about their happy day ending up with Trishia’s surprise visit.

They had a good time today on the beach and in the island.

She saw Bill's smile again at her.

His expression was not forced not pretentious.

She could tell his happiness was coming from his heart and so she was.

Well, they were shocked but she quickly got over it knowing how possessive Trishia is and how

desperate she could be when it comes to Bill.

“What are you doing here?” Of all the people present in the room, only Bill Sky sounded no tension in

his voice.

He was just also surprised by Trishia’s sudden presence.

Of course, he had lied to her just to be with Arabella.

He did it for her not to get hurt but then she discovered it.

Admittedly, he didn't like it.

He never liked women who were very possessive and obsess.

They were the type he was scared of ever since that was why he always had a contract.

But then, he owed Trishia a lot and no matter what he do, no amount of money could repay her for

what she had done to him and to his family.

The only thing he could do was treat her right and tried his best not to hurt her.

Now, he had no excuse.

“Sweetheart…I’m here because I am your only lover. Right, sweetheart?” Trishia sounded coquettish

as she strode closer to Bill and hooked her arms around his neck without any care about the other

woman who was standing beside Bill.

“Trishia, you are drunk. Let’s talk inside.” With a controlled temper, Bill sounded as he smirked cooly.

“No…” Trishia refused shaking her head repeatedly. “I am your lover Bill but you are with this slut!”

Trishia added roaring but then after, she chuckled softly.

Trishia looked at Arabella bitterly.

Her eyes were killers like she was despising Arabella her entire life.

She hated Arabella to be her half-sister and generally, Trishia hated Arabella's whole existence.

Then, Trishia met Bill’s keen eyes.

“Kiss me, Bill,” Trishia ordered toughly with her begging teary eyes.

Her voice was provoking him.

Daring and challenging.

Her arms wrapped around his neck seemed no sign of releasing him.

Trishia was very desperate to show Arabella and to prove to her that she was the only woman inside

Bill’s heart now.

She also wanted to see if the drug she was using on Bill was still effective.

Trishia relied on too much of the drug because, without it, she was back to being treated like trash by

anyone.

Hearing Trishia, Arabella’s heart palpitated rapidly.

She was clenching her fists hard to control her bursting emotions.

She was very eager to know what Bill was going to do in front of his ex-wife and his wife-to-be in three

days.

In her heart, she wished Bill would not comply with Trishia’s scheme.

She wasn’t ready to witness them kissing in front of her eyes when they just made out on the island

passionately.

It was one of the most unforgettable experiences she had.

Bill was always the adventure type of guy and he was always getting what he wanted anywhere and

everywhere.

He had no limits and boundaries when it comes to his s*xual needs.

She was just so anxious that after that happy moment, here comes the worst part.

Arabella was deliberately waiting for what’s gonna happen next.

She gathered all her courage to see Bill’s response to Trishia.

Her heart wanted to run away as she was not sure if she could bear the pain of seeing them but her

mind wanted to stay.

She wanted to see what Bill would do or if he considered her feelings after they did.

Bill was still unmoved.

The tension in the air was circulating around giving suspense to everyone.

The two women were deliberately waiting for Bill's response carrying opposite hopes in their hearts.

He looked at Trishia Meyer unreadably.

Then unexpectedly, he grabbed her closer pulling her slender waist with his strong hands.

Seeing the scene, Arabella felt her heart was going to explode as it was racing so fast.

She gritted her teeth to maintain her balance though she could feel her knees had softened.

She didn’t know what to do.

She didn’t want to see it but her eyes seemed magnet with them.

She could not control her sight.

Her instinct was telling her to close her eyes but there was something in her that didn’t want to follow.

She mustered her courage and prepared her weak heart.

Bill didn’t look at her.

After he released her hand, he seemed to forget that she was still there standing beside him.

His eyes were focused on Trishia’s face.

He had no sign of contemplating.

Then in the next second, Bill kissed Trishia.

The kiss shattered Arabella’s heart into pieces.

She watched Bill kissing Trishia Meyer full of intimacy.

Trishia held Bill's neck tight catering to Bill's luscious lips.

Her chest pressed on Bill's muscles.

They kissed like no one was watching them.

Arabella felt cold sweats all over her body.

Her nerves seemed to contract like they stopped functioning inside her body.

Her breathing had stopped.

No wonder the scene was breathtaking for her in a negative way.

She wanted to flee but her feet weren’t cooperating with her.

Even her eyes were so stubborn to see everything.

She clearly saw Bill’s expression.

He was seriously pleasing Trishia.

He kissed Trishia the way he kissed her.

When all she thought was that she could only satisfy Bill, she was very wrong.

It was very terrible to think that Bill only wanted her.

She forgot Bill’s reputation before and now that she was seeing him kissing Trishia, she was like being

slapped so hard.

She thought, their happiness earlier was genuine.

She thought Bill was giving her his time to be with her.

Admittedly, she felt special when Bill brought her there even though she felt a little jealous but then Bill

clarified everything to her.

His words earlier were still in her heart but now they were all questionable.

How could she easily believe him?

'All the woman's stuff was all hers and she was the only woman who he brought there?'

Arabella could not help but mock Bill's words in her mind.

As she was brought to reality, she could not take it anymore.

Arabella clenched her fists hard.

Then she stormed out of the living area.

She felt very insulted by Bill Sky.

What they did earlier seemed to have no value to him.

He never considered her feeling.

Nothing would happen if he didn’t give in to Trishia.

She would not be hurt like this.

She couldn’t take it anymore.

She felt very disappointed and dismayed by Bill’s action.

She had to leave the place now or she would just continue hurting herself.

She could not process it anymore. All content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.

All she wanted was to get out of the place.

Bill’s 3-day deadline was over.

She had to accept her defeat.

It was just impossible for her to help Bill if he didn’t want her help.

She had no chance of winning if Bill would not cooperate and just continued to hurt her.

She knew she promised herself to help Bill with all of her capabilities and might but at this point, she

could not find any reason to continue anymore.

Bill’s satisfyingly kissing Trishia flashed across her mind which gave her too much pain and irk.

She found herself walking on the shore.

No way to go.

Wanting to calm herself but it was too impossible.

She took off her slippers and walked barefoot.

The cold air from the sea touched her face.

Maybe she needed this to recover.

If only the wind could blow off the pain she was feeling right now, she would be staying there for the

whole night.

Her tears flowed like a river without any sign of stopping.

She felt very hopeless as she could not find any positivity in her efforts anymore.

She wanted to give up and she didn’t know how to mend her broken heart.

Absentmindedly, her feet touched the water.

She looked down.

She liked the temperature of the water like it could also drench her worries.

Without any hesitation, she went into the water slowly until her half body was half dipped in the water.

She looked at the moon.

It was so bright.

If only the moon could take all her pain, she would be dipping her body the whole night.

As her tears flowed non-stopped, she heaved a heavy sigh like she was releasing all her frustrations.

Of course, she didn’t want to give up but she could not handle the pain anymore.

She was like a sponge absorbing all the pain in the world but she also had her limits.

Facing the moon, she cried hardly without any care for her surroundings.

“Ahem!” When someone coughed beside her. Arabella was stunned as she never expected someone

was also in the water at this time.

It was already dark and only the moonlight and warm bulbs lit the area.

She quickly wiped her tears as she didn’t want to be seen by someone crying.

Then she quickly turned around to go away from the water as she didn’t want to talk to someone or she

didn’t feel to see someone.

She was very down and didn't want to mingle with someone now.

All she wanted was to be alone but then the person sounded when she was about to walk away.

“I’m sorry, Arabella but I couldn’t just see you crying without doing something.” The man’s familiar voice

was very serious.

He knew her name so she should not be mistaken.

Without turning around, she could determine the person but what bothered her the most was why he

was there.

She quickly turned around to see him but kept meters distance away from him.

“Mark?” Arabella sounded puzzled as she uttered his name.

Though they had talked before, Mark’s identity was still a very big question mark for her. “Why… why

are you here?” She asked with a deep frown.

“Hmmm… Let us say that my rich mom had property here.” Mark’s expression wasn’t bragging but he

seemed no interest when he uttered the words.

As far as her judgment served her right, Mark wasn’t welcome in the Sky family.

That is why Bill despised him because he was born from another mother and Bill’s father’s mistress.

Since Mark studied abroad, had an expensive sports car, and lived in an expensive compound same as

Bill’s mansion and property in an expensive resort neighborhood, Arabella presumed that Mark was

acknowledged by Ed Sky but never accepted with the Sky family as how Bill treated him.

He seemed to be an outsider.

Arabella could not help but pity him.

His expression was also gloomy and opposite from the club's young man who flirted with different kinds

of girls including her.

“Do you want someone to talk to? I can listen.” Mark approached her with sincerity.

His tone was telling her that she could trust him.

Arabella heaved another deep sigh of frustration.

She didn’t know but she felt the urgent need for a listener but still, she was hesitant.

“Everybody was treating me as an outsider.” Suddenly, Mark uttered gloomily and then he laughed

bitterly. “I thought you were different from them.” He added with a sad tone.

Arabella’s heart jolted. She didn’t expect Mark could be this sentimental. She thought she shouldered

all the problems in the world but seeing Mark’s expression, he seemed to have a bigger problem than

her. His sad eyes were telling her.

She looked at Mark and mustered her courage.

"Mark, can you take me away from here?" Arabella suddenly asked still feeling her shattered heart.
