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

Chapter 351: The Show Must Go On

Arabella was dumbfounded.

She slowly lifted her head to see if what she heard was true.

Her mind could not process the announcement as she was very baffled by Bill’s presence.

The man carried an intimidating wind which made everyone stiffen.

Seeing Bill, the Senator seemed back to his gorgeous typical aura way opposite to his impatient

looking earlier.

He also thought that Bill would not appear tonight but somehow, he had hopes and strong beliefs that

Bill Sky would not let Arabella Jones down.

Now, he confirmed that he was not mistaken.

Wearing a black tuxedo, Bill seemed to attend a grand formal party and he left just to rush in there but

his expression had no trace of rushing.

He was still calm and dignified.

Arabella fancied how he managed to allure everyone with his good looks and powerful demeanor.

Now that, she knew everything, she was seeing him as a prince charming trying to save her.

Though there were still doubts inside her, she just hoped that she could thank him for saving her and

Adam 7 years ago.

She also wanted to apologize to him for blaming him as the mastermind of all her sufferings.

Arabella planned to rectify her relationship with Bill Sky.

She wanted him and she was 101 % sure about it.

Later, if everything would go well, she would ask Eric for a divorce and she would go back to Bill Sky as

what he wanted.

Her marriage with Eric was just for convenience.

Eric had agreed to it because he wanted to help her get rid of Bill Sky.

She knew she was terrible but she wanted back her freedom from the marriage and wanted to go back

to Bill Sky.

She wanted to fix her family.

She was going to accept Bill’s offer even though he already changed his mind, she would do everything

to get his offer again.

With her thoughts, she felt motivated.

She would fix her family and unleash all the bitterness toward him.

She knew she had to put all her efforts to get Bill and make him agree with her but for her, it would be

all worth it if it meant for her to be with her son and him again.

“Yes! Finally, Mr. Sky… You have come.” The wicked Senator’s voice snapped Arabella back to her

senses.

Sen. Meyer strode toward Bill. “May you take your seat, first?” Then Sen. Meyer pointed to a chair

beside them.

Bill looked at the man on his side who was sitting with crossed legs and keenly observed the situation

in front of him.

Eric was looking at Bill too and their eyes met.

They seemed to have a common understanding of what was going to happen but their expressions

didn’t change even a bit.

They were both domineering but the difference was Bill was calm and composed but Eric came rushing

and impatient.

He just got calmed down when he realized that Bill was coming and that this night was a long game.

Eric realized that he had to observe and use his brain to solve whatever would happen tonight as he

anticipated that the Senator had prepared a huge entertainment for them. A dangerous entertainment

and of course, all to the Senator’s advantage and gains.

“I hoped you came here alone, Mr. Sky. Don’t get me wrong, you know me, I’m a ….” Sen. Meyer was

up to boost himself to the man who was not interested in knowing him. Bill just smirked at the Senator

then went to sit on the chair passing Sen. Meyer.

He sat elegantly like he was not inside a dangerous territory.

Feeling embarrassed because he had no choice but to cut his statement earlier, Sen. Meyer gathered

his composure.

The two billionaires were too intimidating for him.

They were like inside their own territory and he was like the outcast of the two.

Sen. Meyer didn’t feel it right.

He smirked realizing that he should be the king in his territory.

He should terrorize them not them terrorizing him.

He smirked as he was about to show them who is the big boss in his territory.

These two billionaires should kneel to him.

Bill and Eric’s chairs were placed beside each other on a couch with one coffee table separating them

in between.

The set-up was they were like watching a good suspense show.

With crossed legs, Bill held his chin with his delicate fingers while his elbow was on the armrest of the

chair.

He looked impatient like he had not enough time to spare and the Senator’s show was useless same

as Eric who was also sitting with crossed legs while his arms were folded in front.

“Gentlemen, again, thanks for coming.” The Senator was coping with his humiliation.

No matter what, she should be successful tonight. “Please take a look at the documents on the table

and if you are wanting to sign it, you may do so.” The Senator uttered manipulative.

Bill and Eric had a folder each on their sides.

The Senator made a contract that one who would sign the document agreed to transfer all his wealth to

him.

“Your personal phone, of course. You may call your personal bank account managers for the instant

transfer to my account.” The Senator added like he was not dealing with hideous matters.

When the two arrived earlier, his man already screened Bill and Eric for weapons and they didn’t find

anything aside from their mobile phones.

As part of the briefing, they confiscated them earlier but since they found no tracker, Sen. Meyer had to

give back it to them as he needed them to call their banks using their verified number for the money

transfer transaction.

With these, he would have an instant money transfer and a document with their signatures and seals

which would be his proof if complications would go along his way.

Upon hearing the Senator, Bill and Eric were not bothered.

They didn’t even hold or take a glance at their perspective phones on the table.

They were staring at the dark part of the room in front of them.

They seemed to decipher what was the start of the show.

Eric was already clenching his fists to control his temper.

He didn’t know what he could do to the Senator if something bad happened to her.

Admittedly, he was also blaming himself that Arabella was going to suffer again because he was busy

with someone else.

He was busy coping with the girl with a mask.

He was with her when someone called him about the abduction of his wife.

When he was driving, his heart was clenched hard.

He was so guilty for not protecting her.

Though their marriage was with the purpose to help her, he was still her lawful husband.

On the other hand, Bill was expressionless.

He was sitting elegantly with his always domineering look giving an air of immense tension inside the

room.

Though the Senator was already pissed off for not getting any response, he was able to control his

temper.

The show must go on.

Since he came out in the picture, his plan should be successful otherwise, he would face the

consequences and Sen. Meyer knew what was going to happen to him if he missed this night.

Offending the two billionaires would be not a good plan for him, especially Bill Sky.

He was just so obsessed and desperate to get all the money and wealth he could get as his illegal

businesses were not doing well.

Aside from that, it was not good enough to sustain his luxurious life.

He had his ambition to be the wealthiest person in the city and around the world and he was getting it

tonight by hook or by crook.

Since he failed to put his trust in Trishia to do the move, Sen. Meyer had only himself to achieve what

he wanted.

“Okay!” Sen. Meyer clapped his hands loudly. “Let’s get the party started!” Sen. Meyer sat back on his

throne-like chair.

The room was surrounded by his men inside and outside.

He also had watchers far away from his warehouse to monitor the vicinity.

Though he was confident about the success of his plan, his boat was ready in a secret passage just in

case everything would turn out not to his liking.

When everything was all settled, the senator snapped his fingers in the air.

The music of a recorded drum sounded giving more thrill to the show.

Then, there was heavy smoke in front of them like it was an entrance to a grand show.

Sen. Meyer had prepared everything not to waste his guests’ precious time.

After, the smoke gradually vanished then a spotlight was opened tracing a glass container going down.

Slowly, the glass container settled on the ground revealing a very weak girl sitting on a wooden chair.

She was tied to a chair while her head was low like she had no strength to lift it and it seemed her body

would collapse if it wasn’t tied to the chair tightly.

Upon seeing the frail girl inside a huge glass container, Eric quickly stood up.

He could not control his temper anymore.

He was anticipating this to happen but seeing Arabella in the actual situation made him very angry.

Sen. Meyer’s men quickly went to Eric and held his arms to put him down.

Eric snapped out his arms wanting to fight against the men but Sen. Meyer’s men were quick to point

their guns at him.

Eric held his arms up then he went back to sit on his chair.

“Mr. Grant, relax.” Sen. Meyer sounded with a wicked grin on his face.

“If you want to save her so badly just sign the document on the desk and I will assure you that she

would be released instantly. Then, let's call the show is over. So, what are you willing to risk, Mr.

Grant?” The Senator was obviously playing with Eric’s mind and emotions.

When he knew about Eric’s involvement with Arabella, he got more excited as Eric was also a

worldwide billionaire.

At first, he couldn’t believe it but after further investigations, they confirmed that Eric was the legal

husband of Arabella Jones.

Though it was complicated, Sen. Meyer didn’t want to dwell on that matter.

It was already enough for him to know about Arabella and Eric’s relationship.

He seemed to win a lottery with his information.

After hearing the Senator, Eric was muted for a while. He looked at the document on the table with a

ready pen beside it for his signature.

His mobile was also placed on the table. If he was going to sign and put his seal, that document was

already legal. Eric felt hesitant that he was about to throw all his wealth tonight. All he had was all his

hard work. He was an orphan who was just adopted by Rosy's family. His uncle Byer had taught him to

do business and luckily he succeeded. That was why, he was very thankful to Rosy's family, especially

his aunt, Rosy's mom, and his uncle Byer, Rosy's dad. Thinking about what had happened to this

family made him still feel very angry with his Uncle's Byer mistress. Property © NôvelDrama.Org.

"It seemed, Mr. Grant was not willing to give up his wealth for the young lady in front so let me ask you,

Mr. Sky, are you willing to risk for this lovely woman?" Sen. Meyer studied Eric but he could see that

Eric was at a loss. His gaze landed on Bill who was still sitting unaffected by the situation in front of

him. It was hard to read what he was thinking and it made the Senator more anxious about him.

Bill was unmoved.

His expression was not changed.

He was staring at the girl inside the glass container and he seemed not to hear the Senator.

Bill was calm like he was not hearing the Senator.

He seemed to keenly observe only Arabella and he didn't matter the surrounding.

Feeling another humiliation, Sen. Meyer raised his hand in the air, and then pumped of smoke

appeared inside the glass container.

"It seemed no one wanted to cooperate with me. So don't blame me if she would die in suffocation

there. Well... you all know how to save her right? Call and sign or watch her die!" With grim chuckles,

Sen. Meyer sounded. He could not wait for the two billionaires to decide. Time was of the essence so

he had to put on pressure so one would comply.

The smoke was going to fill the container. Arabella had already loosened the knot but she could not just

make a move impulsively.

She was still pretending to be unconscious but the smoke made her difficult to breathe.

She prayed it stopped and someone to save her but it seemed the decision was still not yet made.

Somehow, she was happy that no one granted the Senator's greedy act but there was a part of her that

was a bit disappointed that no one was willing to save her.

Arabella stayed positive as she had learned her lesson from the past.

If Bill saved her before, she was sure he would do it again.

She trusted him to save her again.

"Dad???" Suddenly, someone sounded. Everyone turned in the voice owner's direction except for Bill.

"Who are you?" Sen. Meyer roared.

The girl sneaked from a small back hole.

She was already being held by his men.

Eric stood up again.

He panicked seeing the masked girl. Before he rushed there, he dropped her off somewhere but how

come she appeared?

Sen. Meyer's men pointed their guns at the masked girl.

"Take off that mask or my men will shoot you!" The Senator roared angrily as his plan was disrupted by

the unknown girl.

The girl looked at Eric first then she slowly moved and carefully took off the half mask she was wearing.

The half mask dropped to the floor along with the shock on everyone's face.

"Hanna?" Sen. Meyer sounded in great shock.
