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

Chapter 169 : Playing The Victim

“Thank you for visiting me, mom.” Trishia looked very weak as she tried to utter her words sincerely to

Kelly.

“Why did you give your life to Adam?” Kelly sounded strictly and aloof.

“Mom, as I told you, I love your son very much,” Trishia answered weakly. “If I can give my life to his

son, I can also give all of me to him.” Trishia continued in a pitying tone. She was determined to get

Kelly on her side and her situation right now was an advantage.

“I don’t know Trishia but you already broke my trust,” Kelly said with a cold tone.

“Mom, about that video, it was not true. You know me and you know in your heart that I’m that kind of

girl.” Trishia implored.

“For now, I can’t promise you anything.” Kelly was still hurt with the turn of events. She treated Trishia

as her own daughter and put her hopes on her to be the best life partner for her son. “I leave it up to Bill

and if it’s up to you if you can win his heart,” Kelly announced. With what happened, she realized that

she could not afford to lose her only son but when it comes to Arabella, she still couldn't find a heart to

forgive him. Whenever she saw her, she could see the face of her husband struggling to breathe and to

stay alive but didn't survive.

“But… mom…” Trishia felt abandoned by Kelly’s words.

“Trust me. You have a lot of things to do to win my trust back.” Kelly remarked then went away without

waiting for Trishia's reply.

Trishia clenched her fists. She felt Kelly left her in the middle of the ocean and it's up for her to survive

on her own.

‘No! You can’t do this to me, Kelly!’ Her eyes widened while gritting her teeth. Without Kelly on her side,

she would have a hard time getting Bill. She had to do something to get Kelly back.

‘Someday, you will beg me to marry your son.’ She swore.

For now, she was obsessed with getting her life back, Kelly and Bill. She was very close to her dream.

Bill was already by her side as her handsome groom. How could she just slip it away?

If not for Arabella and Winston, her dream wedding would push through. By now, her title should be

Mrs. Sky. She would wake up in Bill's arm in the morning after a hot wild s*x at night. Thinking about it,

she smiled absent-mindedly. It was so real for her until she woke up in reality. She looked from side to

side and saw that she was left alone in the hospital.

She felt lonely and angry but Trishia smiled again out of a sudden remembering how she took her

revenge on Winston.

“Move!” Winston angrily shouted dragging Trishia. Adam just obediently followed them.

When they were about to exit the basement, Winston got his gun and a flashlight in the corner. Trishia

took the advantage to get her phone in her side pocket with tied hands and called Bill. She purposely

left her call open to carry out her plan.

In the middle of their escape, Trishia suddenly shouted. “Release us, Winston!”

They all stopped.

“I never love you! I only love Bill and I love his son too. So don’t ever touch Adam or I will kill you.”

Trishia shouted bravely. "You set me up at my own wedding. You made that video all yourself just to

ruin my image to the whole world and my wedding. You know that video was not true. You use that to

blackmail me to love you but I will never love you even if I die. I will only love Bill Sky in this life!" Trishia

shouted crying to provoke Winston more. Playing the victim was the goal to regain Bill’s affection.

Adam was startled by the scene. He didn't know Trishia but judging from her words, Adam concluded

that she was his dad's girlfriend. He was not afraid of her but the only thing he noticed was that his

mother was prettier than his father's girlfriend. He nodded repetitively in satisfaction while folding his

arms up his chest not minding the real issue and tension in front of him.

Winston's face got flustered and Trishia felt satisfied that she made him angry. He suddenly reached

Trishia’s neck then he gave her a hard slap.

“Ah!” She shouted in pain.

‘That’s right Winston, hit me hard! Make me look pity to everyone.’ She secretly grinned. Trishia was

driven by a strong obsession with clearing her image to Bill that she could not even feel hurt from

Winston’s slap.

“Adam, run! Save yourself. I will give my life to you because I love your father and I love you.” Trishia

then shouted to Adam.

Seeing the situation got harsher, Adam followed his instinct to run away and hide in the dark. Winston

had no plan to chase or hurt Adam but Trishia grabbed Winston’s gun.

“Are you crazy?” Winston shouted angrily while fighting over his gun.

Driven by her goal, Trishia had extra strength even her hands were tied up. She struggled to get

Winston’s gun from his hand. Extreme suspense suddenly filled the air. In the dark, the two were

fighting over a gun until a gunshot was heard.

Trishia successfully pulled the gun’s trigger on Winston’s side. She smiled triumphantly seeing Winston

was bleeding and was in a shocking state.

Finally, she got the gun all by herself. With the use of her teeth, she untangled her hands from the rope.

Then she got her phone, end the call, and threw it to the ground.

“Baby, don’t do this. Let’s get out from here together.” With lots of blood dripping out on his belly,

Winston still managed to stand unsteadily.

“Oh! I’m sorry but that’s not gonna happen.” Trishia wickedly grinned while holding his gun.

“Trishia… Baby, we can have more excitement together. We can live together with our baby. I can still

make it up to you.” Trying hard to utter his words, Winston walked closer to Trishia.

Trishia was alarmed and pulled the trigger again. At this time, Winston instantly fell to the ground.

Blood was flowing on the ground but he tried to stay alive and sat up staggering.

“There’s no we, Winston.” Trishia walked close to him and knelt with one knee. “You are just so stupid Property of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.

to believe that I conceived your child!” Trishia spitted on the ground in disgust. “Do you really think that

I will allow your lowly genes to enter my womb?” She spun his gun like playing with a toy gun. “You are

just like this gun. My toy!” She said with an offensive insulting tone. “You should have killed me when

you have that chance.” Trishia smiled with a sinister look.

“Bitch….” Winston uttered softly while already vomiting blood. “What are you doing?” He was on a

verge of dying. Trishia went beside him and got his hands. Without any strength left, Trishia easily

manipulated his hands with the gun. He could see Trishia’s desperate wicked expression while she

guided his hands and finger to pull the trigger pointing to her side belly.

She was just shocked for a while but she managed to lead his hand and threw the gun to the steep

slope. Then, using a tree branch, she pushed Winston to the edge of the steep slope. “Adios! Send my

regards to your sister, Amanda.” She sweetly smiled before she pushed him down to fall.

The timing was so right that Bill and his men came to the scene. Now that she successfully eliminated

Winston, she felt relieved. She got her revenged and her many secrets died with him too.

“Thank you.” These words from Bill were like music to her ears playing with no stop button. She was

still in cloud nine and even if she was hurt it was all worth it.

Trishia was still smiling thinking about her success when someone knocked on her door.

“Come in.” She yelled. The person went inside the room.

“What are you doing here?” She yelled angrily.

“I heard you are wounded.” The man answered.

“Get out.” She shouted.

“I will.” The man said. “I just brought you something to eat.” He added.

“I don’t need that.” She rolled her eyes.

“You have to eat to bring back your strength.” The man replied.

Trishia smirked and looked at the man sharply.

“You sure you want me to get back my strength?” She smirked playfully. The man didn’t answer. “Don’t

blame me on what’s gonna happen next.” She added meaningfully.

“Trishia. Get hold of yourself. Do not do things that would ruin you later.” The man said with controlled

anger.

“Blahhh…blahhh…blahhh… Get out!” Trishia uttered with annoyance. The man heaved a sigh of

frustration before he stepped outside.

Meanwhile, At Arabella’s apartment.

“Damien, please bring Adam first to his room.” Arabella was alarmed by the two unexpected visitors.

Damien nodded and looked at Bill sharply before he brought Adam to his room.

“Please take a seat before we proceed Ms. Jones.” Atty Harris pointed the couch in front of Bill.

Arabella frowned. She felt a bit intimidated by the lawyer’s professionalism but she refused to be

ordered inside her own house.

“Excuse me Atty. Harris. Can you please leave us for a while? I need to talk to your client alone.” She

deliberately put her chin up to look more intimidating.

“Ah…” Atty. Harris was about to refuse but Bill raised his hand signaling him to exit.

Atty. Harris bowed and went away swiftly.

When they were left alone, Arabella looked at Bill sharply like she wanted to murder him.

“What is this?” She shouted with controlled anger as she didn’t want Adam to hear their conversation.

“You heard him.” He answered briefly and coldly.

“Are you that shameless?” She already knew the answer to her question but at this moment she

wanted to insult him for being so thick-face. This man always surprised her. A shocking nerve-racking

surprise.

“I need my son,” Bill announced coldly.

“And raise him to be just like you?” Arabella rolled her eyes at him. When they were in his grandfather’s

manor, she understood where his coldness coming from but her understanding reached a certain limit,

and eventually, it was all gone.

“Then you can raise him with me,” Bill announced with a stern tone. He folded his arms in front and

looked at her seriously.

“Huh!” She chuckled softly. “Are you kidding me?” She added with annoyance. Arabella had no plan to

live with him again. 'What was he thinking, a happy complete family?' She wanted to laugh out loud.

“I don’t make jokes,” Bill added then stood up. He walked closer to her. “You want to raise him? Live

with me.” He added with a smirk. “It’s your choice!” He ended.

She knew Bill was not kidding. His serious expression was giving her a sudden fright. She already

knew that she had no win in fighting over the custody of Adam. With his influence and money, she was

already at the losing end without even starting the battle.

“Bill, you cannot do this.” Arabella pleaded while holding his arm. “Adam would greatly suffer if you do

this.” She added.

Bill looked at her hand on his arm then looked at her. “Adam will live with me whether you like it or not.”

He announced with full of authority. Then strode outside. Arabella quickly followed him. She could not

just give Adam to him just like that.

“Bill! Bill!” She called chasing him.

Bill stopped and grabbed her harshly. He quickly pushed her against the wall. He looked at her with a

serious look. Arabella was stunned but quickly recovered.

“Bill, spare Adam, please. He is young and innocent.” Arabella pleaded.

“And he is my son,” Bill claimed.

“But you abandoned us. Don’t you remember it?” Earlier she was already pleading with him but it didn’t

work. Now, she was full of sarcasm.

Bill roughly pinned her two hands on the wall.

“Ouch!” She shouted feeling the pain from his grip.

Bill smirked. “I didn’t abandon you. You hide Adam from me.” Bill said angrily.

Arabella was stunned. She chuckled. “How dare you!” Then she shouted. She turned flustered with his

words. She wanted to slap him repetitively but Bill’s grip on her hands tightened.

"Live with me or you will not see Adam anymore." His unfathomable eyes were buried in her eyes

making her froze in fright.
