You Can Run But You Can't Hide My Contractual Wife novel Chapter 82

Bill quickly went out of the car, but Arabella had no intention to follow. Instead, she fastened her seatbelt and refused to go inside the villa.

Why on earth she had to go back there?

But two seconds later, the door on her side opened and Bill unbuckled her seatbelt, then, her body was lifted forcefully into the air.

The air was cold but his grip on her was even colder that made her freeze.

She didn’t move.

It’s not because she couldn’t, but she just opted to. Otherwise, she exactly knew what Bill could do if she continued to disobey him.

Just as she thought that Bill would directly toss her to the bed, but Bill strode to a different direction and before she knew it, she had already been thrown into the infinity pool.

Arabella was shocked and she quickly struggled in the freezing cold water.

Her mind was with her baby inside her stomach.

The throw had no impact on her and she didn’t feel any pain anywhere.

She felt relieved, but she didn’t deserve to be punished like this.

She was suffering from the coldness of the water mixed with the cold night air. She shivered instantly, glaring at Bill with her killer eyes while clenching her stiff hands into fists.

Bill’s expression was not distracted at all. Instead, his ruthlessness showed no emotions.

His eyes were deep and dark.

No one could clearly determine what he’s thinking.

“You are not human! You are heartless!” Arabella exclaimed in anger while tremendously shivered.

She couldn’t believe Bill could do that or maybe she was just expecting something from him.

Something gentle, perhaps.

Which was next to impossible!

Bill didn’t say anything. He crossed his arms in front while looking down at her wet figure and bursting expression.

Feeling the extreme annoyance, she wanted to punch him to release her anger. That’s the only thing that came out of her mind. Her revenge should be fatal for throwing her in the pool.

Shivering and had been stiffened due to the cold water, she tried to swim and take her body out from the freezing water. Then, with great exasperation, she ran towards him strongly clenching her hand and she quickly gave him a punch on the face.

The punch didn’t land on his face as Bill had caught it. With the eyes that could scare people in one movement, Bill looked at her like he was the fox and she was the lamb.

Arabella wanted to run and get out of his sight quickly, but her ego refuted.

Running was no option.

Her ego wanted a revenge.

A violent one.

“Let go of my hand!” Bursting with anger, Arabella yelled.

With an overly strength, Bill dragged her at the edge of the pool.

“As you wish!” He coldly said.

Then he loosened his grip and dropped her again into the water, but this time, Arabella had dragged his sleeve before she stumbled and fell to the water.

They both fell and got wet in the freezing pool.

Feeling satisfied, Arabella smirked stubbornly at him, then she quickly withdrew herself from him. She swam to get away, but a strong hand had caught her. The hand dragged her and put her to his embrace.

Bill hugged her wet back while he positioned her in front of him to see the beautiful night city view.

Under the moonlight that shone directly to them, it seemed the time had stopped.

The once freezing cold water had become warm in an instant because of his hug.

The bickering, struggling and revenging had paused for a moment.

Silence was gold at this moment.

So peaceful that even a pin drop could be heard.

It was indeed magnificent!

Then from afar, the sky suddenly filled up with colorful fireworks.

It was lovely and magical.

Arabella had felt she was inside her own fairy tale.

It was perfect.

As her eyes were mesmerized by the dazzling fireworks, her smile showed up, but in a short while, her smile faded together with the fireworks in the sky.

Realizing the magic was over, Arabella had gained her senses and quickly swam to break free from Bill.

Reality was cruel.

She couldn’t let herself to be imprisoned in a dream where magic was real and everything was all perfect, it’s time for her to wake up and face the reality.

Like Cinderella, magic was up and it’s time for her to go back to the real world.

No matter what, she could only rely on herself to live and protect her baby from all hates in the world.

In the corner of his eyes, the gloominess could be seen as he watched her leave the pool.

Arabella quickly went to the master bedroom to get her clothes and brought it to the guest room. Though her irk was still possessing her, she still couldn’t help admiring the cleanliness inside and everything she had left there was all intact.

She had thought that Bill had brought all his women in the place after she left, but from what she had seen, there’s no any traces that another woman had entered their room and the privacy was still clear in every corner.

For some reason, she felt an undeniable joy in her heart.

After she changed her wet clothes, she went to the balcony. The night was deep and late. If she would try to go home because of her stubbornness, she would be putting herself and her baby again in danger.

The villa was located in a huge isolated compound with only few rich neighbors and it’s very impossible for her to hail a cab inside. That being said, she needed to walk for an hour to get to the entrance gate again that, if she would not get lost.

It would be safe for them to stay in the villa and she would leave early tomorrow.

As planned, Arabella sneaked out after the sun had shown up.

A little light was much safer to walk. She gently moved and tip toed afraid to trip something that could make any unnecessary noise.

When she passed the living area, she was stunned. Bill was sleeping on the sofa.

Why?

She frowned.

His quilt dropped on the floor. Seeing him caught in his deep slumber, she wanted to leave him right away, but for some reason, she slowly strode towards him and stared at his lovely face. Then, she picked up the quilt on the floor and covered him carefully.

Once she’s done, she turned around to leave, but her wrist was caught by a hand. The hand pulled her and she lost her balance, then she directly fell to his hard chest.

Coincidentally, her lips touched his.

Arabella’s eyes widened while Bill’s eyes were still closed. She quickly struggled and removed her lips from him, but his strong arms couldn’t just let her go. Bill hugged her tight and his lips started to move.
