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

Chapter 233: An Eye For An Eye

Earlier,

“Argggg!!!!”

In her room, Trishia screamed smashing all the things she could see inside to the ground.

She felt tricked again.

When all she thought that fate had cleared her way to Bill, Arabella came back to life.

“Arabella… Arabella… Arabella…” She muttered repeatedly.

She could not accept that Arabella was still alive when all she ever wanted her to die.

She’s nothing with Arabella around.

Bill would never love her if Arabella is standing her way.

Thinking about this, Trishia’s eyes grew wider as she giggled in anger.

"Ahhhhh!" She screamed louder and prolonged.

She was like breathing fire and wanted to burn everyone who stand her way.

“You have to die! You have to die! Why can’t you just die?” She roared as she shivered.

Then shattering of glasses was heard again as she picked up another vase and strongly threw it to the

concrete wall.

Meanwhile,

“Damien, you’re drunk!” Arabella exclaimed while she pushed Damien away.

“I’m not. I just want you to feel that you don't need another man in your life to protect you! I can protect

you and Adam.” Damien grabbed her again and he forcefully hugged her.

Judging from his words, Arabella knew what he meant.

Damien seemed to see her and Eric earlier or he seemed to know where she went.

“Damien, calm down! Let’s talk about it when you sober.” Arabella tried to pacify the man instead of

screaming her annoyance.

Damien was drunk and he was not in his proper mind.

She didn’t want to do anything that could trigger Damien’s pride.

It could lead only to the worst.

“Why? Why not me? Why do you have to ask help from someone who you just met?” Damien sounded

gloomy and desperate.

She seemed to already know the reason for all these.

Undoubtedly, Damien was jealous.

He hated the fact that she asked for help from Eric.

“Damien, trust me. I consider you as one of my best friends and I don’t want you to put in trouble with

Bill Sky. You know how capable that man can do to you but he can not do that to Eric Grant.” Arabella

explained with full of concern in her eyes.

Damien had no match with Bill Sky in terms of money and power.

She knew how merciless Bill could be with his enemy and she didn’t want Damien to get involved with

it.

She just wanted to protect Damien.

Aside from that, Damien had no control over his emotion like he tried to kill Bill that night.

It ruined her plan and she had to cover his identity or else, she could not imagine what could Bill do to

Damien.

She had to protect all her loved ones left from Bill Sky as she could afford to lose one again.

“Damien, let go now.” Feeling his grip had not loosened, she tried to take away his arms around her.

“No! I miss you and I have waited this day to be with you.” Damien’s expression was so desperate.

She could see his sincerity through his eyes but it didn’t feel right.

“Damien, listen to me. You are drunk. Let go and let’s forget this night.” She said with a controlled

temper as she could feel her annoyance was surging up.

“Tell me why you can’t love me? I love you and you know that! Please give me a chance. I

changed for you. Let me be the one to protect you like your man. You don’t need Eric Grant!” Damien

roared. His tone was angry.

Arabella got rattled.

Damien didn’t want to listen to her and her patience was running out.

He hugged him forcing her to hug him back.

Then in the next second, Damien started to kiss her head forcefully targeting her lips while she

struggled.

He was forcing himself to her.

Arabella struggled her best and with all her strength left, she pushed Damien hard.

Arabella successfully detached her body from him.

Damien was taken aback as he was slowly backed to his senses.

“Ara… I’m…” He uttered staggering embarrassed of what he did but his words didn’t come to end.

Vexed, she gave Damien a heavy slap.

She felt Damien had crossed the border.

“It’s wrong to live here with you. Get sober Damien.” Her annoyance towards him was eating her up as

she stormed outside running.

She didn’t want to enter inside Damien’s house and stay with him tonight.

She had never felt this way before when they were in country N.

Maybe because they have different houses.

They were just neighbors at that time so they have their own privacy.

Now, she felt being treated unfairly by Damien. She felt insulted by his action.

Damien disrespected her by forcing her.

After Damien did tonight, she could not imagine herself living with him anymore.

“Wait! Arabella! Wait! I’m sorry…” Damien quickly chased her outside the gate.

He caught her quickly.

“I’m sorry.” Damien had gone sobered.

“Let me go!” She was in a panic as she yelled.

When Damien forcefully kissed her, she felt disgusted.

Friends should not do such things.

She could not tolerate Damien’s doing.

Damien’s face was filled with regrets.

He was caught between letting her go or he would lose her forever.

Seeing Damien’s expression, Arabella took the advantage to snatch her arm from him then she ran

crossing the street.

“Arabella! Wait! Don’t leave!” Damien chased her with messy thoughts.

He was afraid that Arabella would not come back to him again.

He regretted what he did to her.

He was just so angry seeing her hugging another man.

She didn’t know how he felt when she had to live with Bill Sky in his house because of Adam.

Every night, he was sleeping and drinking in the bar drowning himself with alcohol just to forget the

current situation.

Now that Arabella was in his place, she didn’t know how happy he was.

Finally, they were back like before but seeing her hugging Eric, he screwed up.

She didn’t know how long he waited for her.

She didn’t know he thought about her every night.

She didn’t know that he greatly suffered when she decided to live with Bill.

The road was dark and Arabella didn’t know where to go.

She heard Damien was calling her name so she ran faster until a loud screeching sound by a car

disturbed the silence of the night.

With the loud sound, Arabella was alarmed.

The abrupt stopped of the car was evidence that the driver of this car had hit someone.

Since their compound was silent, Arabella quickly turned around.

The car quickly ran off.

Her heart had stopped when her eyes quickly caught the man who was lying on the street.

Goosebumps… She could feel lots of goosebumps.

“No! No… No…” She stormed back in the man’s direction.

“Damien! Damien!” She called out his name while running back on the street.

The road was just narrow just meant for the residential compound.

As she was getting closer to Damien, her heart was racing so fast.

“Damien! No… Don’t do this to me…” She kept on uttering absentmindedly.

Arabella quickly knelt on the ground.

Having a clearer picture of Damien’s situation, Arabella panicked.

She didn’t know what to do.

Blood was dripping from Damien’s mouth.

His eyes were slowly closing but he was fighting it.

Through them, she could see the intense pain he was into.

“You… you came back to me…” Damien muttered very low with blood coming from his mouth.

“Don’t talk… Please... Damien, stay alive.” Arabella’s tears came out gushing.

“I… am happy… If I die… Arabella… If I die….” Damien’s eyes were shiny like they were floating.

His words staggered as he already had difficulty speaking his words.

Then, he coughed with ample blood.

“Shhh… you will live Damien…” With a messy mind, Arabella managed to call the ambulance.

“I… love…” Damien sounded again with a heavy tone but he had not finished his sentence.

He finally collapsed after a minute of struggling to be awake.

“Damien! Damien!” She was blown by the scene.

“No! You will live Damien!” Her tone was full of remorse.

If only she didn’t run outside, he would not chase her.

If only she stayed and understood him, this thing would not happen.

She was the one to blame for Damien’s accident.

She sat on the road crying her heart out.

Her guilt was eating her up.

“I’m sorry Damien. I’m sorry…” She kept on uttering those words until the ambulance and medical team

arrived.

She jumped inside the ambulance when Damien was already pushed there.

During the trip, her tears had never stopped falling.

She looked at Damien without consciousness and she remembered how Damien helped her when she

was pregnant with Adam.

That time, she was falling apart but Damien pulled her together.

After she delivered Adam successfully, Damien never left her side.

He supported her career as a pianist.

He canceled his appointment just to take care of Adam every time she had a concert.

Damien took care of Adam as his own son.

She also remembered the time when she had a concert and it finished late.

It was raining cats and dogs outside.

Damien was there at the exit with a big umbrella for her.

Whenever she was sick before, Damien would stay awake the whole night just to monitor and take care

of her.

Why she couldn’t love him back?

Arabella didn’t know how to answer the question.

Her heart was with Damien in it but not as a man.

He was forever her friend and she was forever grateful to him.

When they reached the hospital, Damien was pushed directly to the emergency room.

She was still absentminded outside and was shocked by the sudden situation.

She waited outside to hear the good news about Damien’s condition at the same time her nervousness

was eating her up.

She was fidgeting as she was crying.

She was absentminded the whole time and she could feel her nervousness was killing her.

After a while, policemen came.

They interrogated her about the accident and she answered honestly.

“Do have any suspect in mind?” The officer asked.

Her mind went blank for a while after hearing the officer’s question.

Then she felt cold sweats start to come out on her forehead.

In her mind, could it be Bill Sky?

Did he find out that Damien wanted to kill him that night?

Thinking about this, she felt her breathing wasn’t stable. Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.

She could not breathe properly as her anger aroused.

This is what she wanted to prevent to happen from the start.

Bill Sky was a merciless monster and she had proven it a long time ago.

He would not spare Damien’s life.

After she connected the dots, she confirmed it was Bill Sky who hit Damien.

An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth.

He was the only one who could do such hideous things like this.

He was the only one who had the reason to do this to Damien.

“Bill Sky! You are a monster! You are an evil beast!” Her mind was already screaming in anger.

She was cursing him repeatedly.

“Are you okay, Ms. Jones?” The officer asked seeing the girl who seemed lost in her thought.

Arabella was quickly back to her senses.

“Officer, I have one person in mind who did this.” She suddenly blurted.

For Damien, she’s going to give justice.

“Who could possibly do it?” The officer’s expression was very curious.

Arabella heaved a heavy sigh.

She looked at the officer seriously.

Then she lifted her chin and clenched her teeth.

“Bill… Bill Sky.” She answered.

Hearing her, the officer froze on his spot.

His expression was weighing something like he couldn’t believe what he heard.

“You mean the big-time billionaire?” He asked in shock. It was obvious that the officer didn’t recognize

her as Bill’s wife.

Arabella just nodded.

“hahaha!” The officer chuckled like he just heard the funniest joke in his life.

Arabella was annoyed as she frowned.

The officer quickly behaved and nodded.

“Rest assured Ms. Jones, we are going to take care of this case. We will get back to you as soon as we

find evidence.” The officer said seriously then left.

Arabella shook her head to get rid of her annoyance.

The officer’s reaction upon she mentioned Bill Sky was shaking her nerves.

How could rich murderers be punished if policemen would spare them from any suspicion because

they were rich?

That was just one of the so many perks of money.

They became untouchables.

Arabella heaved a deep sigh of frustration when the doctor who checked Damien came out.

She stood quickly in panic.

“The patient had surpassed the critical stage but we still have to monitor him.” The doctor reported that

made Arabella pacified.

Damien was transferred to a private room.

Arabella called Eric and Lira.

Eris came first. He brought her to eat in a canteen inside the hospital.

In Damien’s room, a girl was holding his hand.

“I’m very sorry…” The girl’s tears were non-stop. “I need to do that…” She added wailing while holding

the unconscious man. The girl's shoulders were low showing her utmost sadness with the situation.

“Lira?” Arabella sounded behind.
