You Can Run But You Can't Hide My Contractual Wife novel Chapter 439

“Helen, what’s wrong with you? Look around you, everyone is so busy. Please, help the others. Will you?” Mr. Harry was a bit annoyed already for his waste time talking to Helen.  

“Come, I will introduce you to our guests.” Then, Mr. Harry grabbed Helen hurriedly but Helen stopped him. 

“What’s wrong? Why you are so pale?” Ms. Dally who was just listening and busy putting the glasses on the tray butted in. 

“Ah…. Nothing.” Helen answered uneasily.

Mr. Harry jolted and frowned deeply. 

He looked at Helen like he was studying her expression. 

“Helen, listen to me.” Mr. Harry was a considerate man toward Helen. 

All the servants in the resort lived on the island and Mr. Harry hired Helen to help her when she moved into the island. 

He saw Helen was good and easy to be trained for all the work in the resort. 

The only problem was she was always late and since she was pregnant, she was always sick. 

Mr. Harry helped her cover up her absences but then later, the owner of the resort seemed to doubt Helen’s performance. 

They oblige Mr. Harry to watch her carefully and fired her immediately if she kept her absences and sickness. 

At this time, Mr. Harry could not cover her anymore. “Listen, Helen, the only son of the owner of this resort will come tonight. You know about your situation here, right? Even though I want to help you because of your condition but I can’t put my work in trouble because of you. Helen, I also have a family. They can also cover and helped you but they also had to feed their families.” Mr. Henry gestured his hand to the others who were working and after hearing the old man they nodded helplessly to agree with him. 

In the resort, they were like a family already. 

They helped each other especially, Helen who was new on the island. 

Since it was a small community, they knew each other and some of them were neighbors. 

Other people in the neighborhood had a lot of questions about Helen. 

They were curious why she moved to the island.

What happened to her?

Where was the father of her baby?

Even though she is pregnant, some island men liked her because she was pretty but she never entertained any man on the island.

She was a hardworking and responsible girl to her family.

“I… I understand, Mr. Harry.” Helen answered in a soft voice. 

Helen could not complain as Mr. Harry had helped her a lot. 

“Okay, if you still feel sick, you can just stay here in the kitchen but later when the son of the owner arrived, you should go and serve them, okay?” Mr. Harry sounded worried. 

Helen was hired there as a server because she was beautiful. 

“I understand, Mr. Harry,” Helen answered as she slightly bowed to show respect to the old man. 

When Mr. Harry went out, Helen shook her head like she getting rid of something in her head, and then she drank a glass of water in one go. 

Ms. Dally, Beth, and Emma who were very curious quickly went to her.

“What’s the matter, Helen?” Ms. Dally asked worriedly.

“Are you sick again?” Beth asked.

“Are you okay?” Emma also asked at the same time. 

Aside from Mr. Harry, these three ladies were also so good to her. 

“I am… Go back to your work now or we all get fired.” Helen sounded smiling to shake off her nervousness. 

“Okay, just sit down there in the corner if you are not feeling well. We can do this, okay? Those guests were not so bossy and they were all kind and rich! They looked super rich!” Beth was the youngest of all the lady servers and she had the most talkative mouth.

Helen just smirked like she was trying to appease her mind. 

She seemed so bothered by something but tried her best to relax her mind. 

On the balcony, the atmosphere was vibrant. 

Arabella felt she had made a good decision going on vacation with the group. 

She liked the view and she wanted to explore the island other from inside the resort. 

She wanted to go out and mingle with the locals on the island. 

She knew the island had so many things that could offer which could not be found inside the luxurious resort. 

She liked to see the smiles of the children on the island as she missed her son, Adam. 

That was her plan for now and maybe she could escape from the group later but before that, she wanted to talk to Damien and Lira about her school. 

Rosy and Damien started to drink wine while Eric was still unmoved with his phone in his hand. 

He was working on his phone and Rosy could not help but just rolled her eyes at Eric repeatedly. 

“Damien, I was thinking if you can help me in the school and… of course you, Lira.” Arabella opened the topic. 

She could not wait to get their approval to help her. 

She believed that the two would be very helpful in her new business. 

“You don’t need to ask. I’m going to help you.” Damien sipped his glass after he replied seriously.

“Me too. Count me in!” Lira followed. She was excited to be part of the music school and to be working again with her boss before. They were good at working together. 

Their chemistry was very compatible in the work and was already proven even before.

Hearing them, Arabella smiled happily. 

“Hmmm… Damien, right?” Suddenly, Eric put down his phone and looked at Damien. 

The two guys knew each other just a little. 

This was the only time they hang-out and it was because of Arabella. 

“Hmmm…” Damien answered in not so friendly expression. 

“What do you do for a living?” Eric asked directly. He seemed to be so curious about Damien. 

Arabella felt the awkwardness between the two. 

She could feel the tension slowly building in the air. 

“Ah, brother, Damien is a composer. Didn’t I tell you about him?” Arabella quickly butted in. 

She wanted to break the awkwardness in the atmosphere. 

“I know. But I want to know more about him.” Eric’s tone and expression were serious.

 He seemed to study Damien and his intention toward Arabella. 

“I am a composer and that is what I do for a living,” Damien answered firmly. 

Eric nodded but his gaze at Damien was meaningful like he saw something different in Damien. 

“So… you just followed Arabella here. Are you already somewhat familiar with capital Z?” Eric asked again like he was seriously interrogating Damien. 

The three girls looked at each other. 

Arabella was dumbfounded. 

She knew the two men’s temperaments. 

Damien was not so good at controlling his temper and Eric was unstoppable. 

Eric was analytical and direct while Damien didn’t like to be interrogated especially about his personal life.
