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

Chapter 177: Ed Sky

“Trishia!” Kelly called her on the phone. Her voice was desperate and frustrated.

“Mom?” Trishia was surprised by Kelly’s sudden call. She was still in the hospital and wanted to stay

there longer as she was not ready to face the outside world after her scandal at the wedding.

“You have to act fast! That woman….” Kelly shouted in a displeased tone. “That woman is living with

Bill now.” She continued not wanting to mention Arabella’s name. Kelly’s resentment towards Arabella

was unfathomable that even mentioning her name made her very furious.

Earlier,

Kelly was excited to arrive at her son’s house. Finally, she could get over her loneliness in her villa. For

so many years she was living there, she tried hard to continue her life without Ed Sky. She had many

servants who accompanied her every day. Bill would drop by sometimes to have dinner with her. She

did lots of travel and shopping. Having a son who was busy as a bee, she could only rely on herself to

overcome the loss of Ed Sky. Life for her continued without Ed but when she saw Arabella again the

loneliness and loss of her husband knocked her out every day.

That moment in the hospital when her husband was struggling to be alive but didn’t make it. She

witnessed how Ed still wanted to live but it was very unfortunate. She was holding Ed’s hand while he

was struggling to breathe until she saw the line of the monitor flattened. Her heart was shattered into

pieces. She also felt she had died together with her husband.

"Bill and the company…"

Those were the last words of her husband.

Though it was an unfinished sentence, Kelly could clearly decipher what Ed had wanted to say. These

two were the most precious factors in Ed’s life. Ed had a very big heart for his people in the company.

All children of the Sky’s employees were under Ed’s scholarship program. The company paid for the

education of their children with their chosen schools and only Sky Corporation had this kind of benefit

to their employees in Capital Z.

Not only that, but they also had the biggest salary and it’s all Ed’s good compassion towards his

people.

On the other hand, Bill was his boy. They talked less but she saw Ed was very proud of his son had

become.

“You know our son is so stubborn, so you have to find him a wife that could soften his heart. A woman

who could polish all the roughness in him.” Kelly remembered Ed’s words.

Ed knew his son well.

“Darling that’s a very hard task,” Kelly replied smiling.

“Well, just find someone just like you,” Ed answered smiling too.

Bill was just like his father before. When she met Ed, it was love at first sight for her but Ed was aloof to

her because he was against their arranged marriage of their families but after the marriage, they

became friends, good business partners, and finally lovers. It took her hardships for a long time until Ed

acknowledged her as his wife. When it finally happened, all her struggles and sacrifices were all paid.

Remembering Ed’s words, she could see herself in Trishia. She had witnessed how Trishia loved her

son. Kelly believed that it only took some sacrifices and hard work for Trishia to polish her son and she

had to help her to fulfill Ed’s task to her.

When she reached inside Bill’s house, she could already hear some noise in the dining room. She

thought it was just Adam and Bill there eating their breakfast but she was very surprised seeing the girl

she had cursed was with them.

“Bill, what’s the meaning of this?” Kelly shouted in fury seeing Bill was hovering over the girl who was

sitting beside Adam.

“Mom,” Bill muttered acknowledging Kelly’s presence while straightening his post.

Seeing Kelly, Adam quickly hid in his mother’s arms.

“What is that murderer doing here?” Kelly was enraged while she pointed at Arabella disgustingly.

Arabella lowered her head. She didn’t want to see Kelly either and be in chaos with her very early in

the morning. She would rather be quiet than talk back as she knew she had no win over her especially

since Kelly was driven by her hatred towards her. Also, they were inside Kelly’s son’s house.

“Bill, do you forget what my doctor said?” Kelly frowned and strode towards Bill seeking comfort and

desperate support. “That woman will kill me. Just seeing her alone makes me sick!” Kelly pointed to

Arabella again with a tone full of disgust.

“Bill, do you hear me?” Kelly’s veins popped out on her neck still seeking for Bill to side her.

“Mom. Let’s talk in private.” Bill muttered in a serious voice.

“No, Bill! Make that murderer go now!” Kelly shouted angrily while pointing at Arabella. Her eyeballs

bulged in anger.

“My mother is not a murderer!” Suddenly, Adam stood up bravely. His little voice was deep and brave.

Arabella was stunned. She quickly held Adam’s hand but Adam didn’t look at her. His sharp deep eyes

were with Kelly.

“How dare you talk to me like that?” Kelly strode towards Adam angrily pointing at him.

Arabella was alarmed. She could not let Kelly hurt her son.

“You have no breeding just like your mom!” Kelly shouted angrily. Her eyes were fierce cursing.

“Adam is just a little boy. Please pardon him.” Arabella muttered politely hugging Adam but Adam

refused to be moved.

“And how dare you talk to me? You are not a member of this family.” Kelly scolded Arabella with insults.

“She is Arabella Jones and she is my mother,” Adam answered Kelly bravely. His tone was strong but

his chubby face was already flushed and stood up sturdy.

Adam was furious with Kelly's insulting words for his mom.

“You!” Kelly pointed at Adam hysterically like she was going to hurt him on the spot.

“That’s enough!” Suddenly, a deep powerful voice resonated. Everyone stopped including Kelly.

Arabella’s heart skipped a beat. Adam finally moved and hugged his mom quickly. It was his first time

hearing his father’s deep big voice. It frightened him. A lot.

The air suddenly filled with intense tension. It became colder that could give anyone a chill.

Kelly turned around to face Bill.

“Please follow me, Mom,” Bill said to Kelly with controlled anger.

Kelly who was very hysterical became quiet. She followed Bill silently but she shot a sharp glance to

Arabella and Adam before she followed her son to the study room.

“What? That woman is really a leech!” Trishia sounded loud as she was shocked by the news. Her

temper suddenly heightened to its peak thinking of Arabella and Bill together in bed.

Kelly instantly regained her senses hearing Trishia’s screaming on the other line.

“Now that you know, you have to get well very soon and do all your best to get my son away from her,”

Kelly ordered still having a displeased tone. She would never feel sober with the presence of Arabella

in her son's house. She felt she had to guard her every second, every minute, and every hour. It didn't

matter to her protecting her son 24/7.

“I will do that mom. I will do everything.” Trishia promised. She meant everything she had said not for

Kelly but herself.

“Trishia.” Kelly suddenly called out her name.

“Yes, mom.” Trishia felt something odd.

“You are still under my watch,” Kelly uttered seriously changing the topic. “That video of yours at the

wedding was such a cheap dirty trick. It made me nauseous whenever I think about it.” Kelly’s voice

became cold as she felt really sick from the time she saw Arabella. Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

“Mom, you know it was edited. That woman had made it to ruin me and to get Bill from me.” Trishia felt

Kelly’s sickening mode for her but she didn’t care. Because of her call, Trishia knew Kelly still wanted

her to be Bill’s wife and that’s good enough for her for now. Then she remembered what she promised

at the wedding.

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

Trishia grinned wickedly.

“Hmmm…better true to your words Trishia or I will get another woman for Bill to marry,” Kelly

announced coldly.

Trishia clenched her quilt very hard. ‘Kelly! You are a witch!’ Trishia screamed angrily in her mind.

“I promised you, mom. I will do my best to clean my name for Bill.” With controlled anger, Trishia

answered calmly trying her best not to shout her fury to Kelly.

“Good.” Kelly just muttered and hung up the phone without waiting for Trishia’s reply.

Trishia was left angry but grinning wickedly. Now that Kelly was back to her side, she had a lot of plans

to do to get rid of Arabella and Adam. Bill would soon fall to her hand. If all her plan would fail, she still

held a bomb in her hand. A bomb that would greatly shock everyone.

“Mommy, why grandma Kelly is too different from grandma Jaime?” Adam asked puzzled. They were in

Adam’s room preparing to go out.

“Hmmm… I really don’t know.” Arabella was lost in her thoughts. She didn’t know what to answer to

Adam’s question and she had no plan to bad mouth Kelly to Adam.

With Kelly in the house, she had to be more careful in everything. She could feel Kelly’s resentment

towards her but she had to absorb everything for Adam. She could not blame Kelly’s anger towards her

but she could not allow her to hurt Adam. The young boy should be spared with her hatred or she had

to do something to take away Adam from them even if she would go against the law.

“Mommy, don’t worry. I am here to protect you.” A little voice sounded beside her that made her regain

her senses. Adam hugged her tenderly that made her want to cry.

“My son. Thank you.” She could only utter her gratitude. Her life hardships were all worth it for Adam

and she was lucky enough to be a mother of a brave sweet little boy.

Today, Bill ordered to transfer Adam to a new school. Though Arabella was against it, she had no

choice but to agree with him. Bill decided it without asking her. He did all the arrangements beforehand

and now they would send Adam to his new school.

The driver drove to Adam’s school. Arabella was in the passenger seat and the two boys were at the

back. Bill was really not giving up his comfort for her and had no gentleman trait in his blood.

Nevertheless, she didn’t have even a little hope for it and she was very immune to him.

Trying her best to be immune and teaching herself to be more immune in the future. She had to or she

would not survive living with him and Kelly every day.

“Mr. Sky, it’s our great honor that you trusted your only son to us.” The President of the school

personally met them gratefully. Adam’s new school was very huge. The tuition cost a very big fortune

that only the children from elite families could afford and were allowed to study there.

“Hmmm…” Bill just muttered seriously. Wearing his navy-blue suit and tie, his powerful aura was

screaming even the President of the school was very careful in dealing with him.

“Adam, are you sure you are okay here?” Arabella secretly whispered to her little boy whose eyes were

wandering all over the place.

“Yes, mom. I will surely love this place.” Adam answered with full of confidence. He was amazed by the

large oval and the buildings. They were constructed modernly like two enormous spaceship heads

bumping each other.

After the formal introduction, Adam was sent to his classroom with only 5 classmates who have the

same IQ level. They were all gifted by unique intelligence.

Adam was very excited to know that he had the same wavelength in the school compared to his

previous schools. Finally, he had someone to talk about cyber codes. His eyes lit up and her chubby

cheeks moved upward as he smiled excitedly.

"Stop!” Suddenly, a loud voice of a kid stopped them from behind.

“Clark, what are you doing here?” The assistant of the President asked the kid. He was tasked to bring

Adam into his classroom.

Adam looked at the boy named Clark. He was tall and a bit older than him. Just one look, he could tell

the boy was a bully and headache of the school.

“Hmmm… Don’t worry, Mr. Sleigh. I am not here to trouble you again.” The boy Clark sounded proud

and strode towards them coolly with his two taller boys.

“I am just here to make friends with our new student.” With a bully voice and manner, Clark tapped

Adam's shoulder.

“I heard you are the new shining star. Be careful! I will be watching you.” Clark then whispered to Adam

with a threatening voice.

“Okay. That’s enough. Clark Hansen, go back to your class now.” Mr. Sleigh remarked.
