Chapter 174 - Her Freedom

DIVORCE CONTRACT

Arabella was dumbfounded. She came there for Adam but she didn’t expect Bill would finally hand her their divorce contract.

Finally, she would have no tie of him anymore. Her eyes grew in surprise as she smiled happily.

“Wow! This is a pleasant gift, Mr. Sky. Thank you very much.” Arabella sounded cheerful. She was very excited to affix her signature on it as she strode towards his desk and got a pen. Her hand was shivering in excitement. Who would have wanted to miss the opportunity that she had long waited?

Her freedom.

After her eyes landed on a pen on his desk, Arabella signed the documents quickly without reading the legal inclusions of the document. Bill studied the woman in front of him who was very eager to sign the paper. His eyes darkened when all he could see on her was happiness and excitement.

“Here.” She excitedly reached him the contract with her signature.

“Now, get out of my house.” Bill got the paper and ordered coldly. His voice was stern and deep. He was putting a bitter end to their marriage.

“I want to see Adam!” Arabella exclaimed as she felt being pushed away roughly. What could she expect from him? Even though, she would not miss the chance to see Adam.

Bill grinned mockingly. His expression was cold as he looked at her. “You signed the divorce. That means, you can’t step inside my house and you are giving up the custody of Adam to me.” Bill said with all clarity. His arrogance was overwhelming that made him so intimidating.

“What?” Arabella could not help but shout in shock. She snatched the contract from him but Bill was quicker to put it away from her.

“You can’t do this to me.” Arabella’s cold sweats came in while she shook her head side to side. She felt very wrong not reading the contract carefully. How could she forget how scheming the man in front of her is?

“Get out now.” Bill’s strict deep tone sounded. It was calm but dangerous when delayed. His dark serious eyes buried on hers.

“No!” Arabella refused angrily. She fell into his trap again and she was so angry with herself. She could not give up Adam. His absence in her life was killing her softly. Without Adam in her life, it would be empty. Adam was her light and source of strength. She had never imagined that they would be separated so soon.

After she screamed at him, Bill stood up with a very dangerous expression. He held the contract with her signature and showed it to her. “You signed this contract because you could not wait to be with that man.” Bill’s eyes were fierce. Arabella knew he was talking about Jayson. With his domineering figure, Bill strode sexily towards her and Arabella quickly took a step back. “That’s not true!” She quickly refuted. Her face was flushed due to her anger. “You are so despicable!” She angrily shouted with teary eyes.

“What’s the matter? You are the one who’s very eager to get a divorce.” Bill said mockingly intentionally shaming her.

“I signed that contract because I want to be free from you. We don’t want you in our life. Don’t you get it?” Arabella looked at him angrily as she clearly stated everything directly to his face.

Bill nodded slowly as he strode closer to her. “Just like you sabotage everything six years ago?” Bill sounded dangerous as he continued cornering her.

“What are you talking about?” Arabella felt danger was coming from his sharp stare but she refused to be shaken.

Bill smirked mockingly as he cornered her body against the door. Arabella felt very uneasy by his body domineeringly pressing her body hard on the hard surface.

Bill’s expression was rough. His eyes had no gentleness as he looked at her like he wanted to hurt her.

“Get out!” Bill then shouted opening the door behind her. His body was pressing her.

“No! I will never leave without Adam.” She hysterically made her stand.

Bill looked at her with a cold rough expression. “I gave you what you wanted. Now get out!” He shouted while dragging her forcefully out.

“No!” Arabella refused to go out. She strongly held the doorknob and blocked the door with her body. She had no plan to give up Adam so easily. She had to do everything not to be dragged outside or else with Bill’s capabilities, he could easily take Adam away from her. If that time comes, she would not probably see Adam.

Bill smirked tiringly but was challenged with her stubbornness.

“You are free, now get out!” He used force to get rid of her but Arabella clung her two hands onto his neck and jumped to him. Her legs wrapped to his waist.

Bill smashed her body on the wall. He could see her desperate move. He just smirked at her. “What do you want now?” Bill smirked with eyes unsatisfied with her action.

“I can’t live without Adam.” She announced shaking her head while strongly caging his body with her arms and legs.

“You wanted freedom. I gave you freedom. You wanted to be with him, then you live with him. I am not too generous?” Bill’s eyes were sharp and bottomless.

“I don’t!” Arabella quickly refuted sounded like begging. “I can’t live without Adam Bill. Please… Don’t do this to me.” Arabella had no other choice but to plead at him.

“But you already signed the contract,” Bill said playfully hearing her beg.

Arabella tightened her hug on his body. She didn’t want to be separated by him and be dragged outside.

“I…” Arabella was speechless.

“Get down,” Bill ordered to the girl glued on his body but instead of jumping down Arabella held him tighter. She locked his body strongly without any plan to let him escape.

For her, whatever would happen she would not be separated from him even if he would force her.

Not getting a reaction from Arabella, Bill held her waist.

“If you don’t go down, I will take you to my bed right now.” Bill threatened her. Arabella was stunned. She felt nervous out of a sudden and wanted to jump out and run away quickly but her strong will refused to give up Adam. She would not leave his place without her son.

Arabella still remained unmoved when Bill pushed her body on the wall. His eyes were still mocking her but she could see something unusual in them. Those were sparkles of lust and desires.

“I don’t have time with your stubbornness,” Bill said pressing her body against the wall. His two hands were strongly gripping her waist.

“Give me Adam and I let go.” Arabella tried her best to be tough in front of the domineering man.

“You wish!” Bill smirked while his eyes fixed to hers. Their faces were close to each other that they could already feel their breathing. “Don’t blame me for this,” Bill muttered then suddenly he kissed her roughly pressing her head against the wall.

It was a kiss with desire and anger. There’s no gentleness. A great strength of force and wild movements was synchronized with each other. He was like punishing her but with an intense desire.

Arabella had anticipated everything when she jumped into him. She saw Bill was wearing an impatient look. Since her anticipation was already happening, she just had to cater to everything.

The wild kiss they shared was unpassionate and painful. They were like attacking brutally each other using the kiss. Bill carried her roughly that they hit the glass lampshade beside his table and directly smashed to the ground.

They didn’t stop. They were fighting through their kisses. Without any gentleness, Bill put her on his desk wiping all the things on it but Arabella still refused to let go of his neck and waist. She was catering to his wild attack and fighting back. His tongue was already inside her. Bill’s hands were wandering around her body. His hand quickly unbuttoned her blouse but suddenly a knock on their door was heard.

They suddenly stopped. Looking in the door’s direction, they already knew who’s outside.

“Come in.” Bill quickly shouted.

The door opened. Adam strode inside. Seeing his mom, he was surprised but he was more surprised with the messy room of his dad and his mom’s position.

“Mom?” Adam sweetly sounded. Arabella was stunned and blushed to notice Adam’s puzzled expression. She quickly let go of Bill and ran towards her son.

“Baby, are you sick? Are you hurt? Is it very painful?” Arabella hugged Adam very tight as she bombarded him with all her worries.

“Mommy, relax. I’m okay. I’m strong.” Adam replied exposing his right arm's little muscle. He knew that she was very worried about him.

Arabella smiled seeing Adam’s cute action and she kissed his forehead tenderly.

“What happened here, dad? Did you bully my mom?” Adam’s eyes landed on the man who was leaning on his desk coolly liked nothing had happened.

“Adam, I have unfinished business with your mom.” Bill folded his arms lazily in front. “Can you wait for us in your room?” He added. His expression was calm but domineering. He was not taking no for an answer.

“Adam, where’s your room, can you show me?” Arabella quickly held Adam’s hand. She had no plan to be left alone with him and allow him to get what he wanted from her.

“Mom?”

“Dad?”

Adam was caught in the middle. He didn’t want to disobey his dad and yet he didn’t want to abandon his mom. His round eyes were full of worries and hesitation.

Bill saw Adam's expression.

“Then what about this?” Bill then raised the contract she had signed.

Arabella was stunned. Bill's expression was serious. She had to do something about it otherwise, her rights of her son would be legally invoked. With Bill’s power, she had no win in the situation. With her signature on the contract, surely, the court would side Bill without having any trials.

“Good night, Adam. I will be there in a minute.” After weighing the pros and cons, Arabella finally let go of Adam. She chose to settle the matter with Bill.

“Good night mom. I miss you.” Adam kissed her lovingly and whispered that put her heart in contentment.

“I miss you too. So much my son.” She whispered back and kiss his chubby cheeks.

Adam looked at his father like he was saying to be nice to her mother.

Bill just raised his hand and nodded. Adam then left.

Silence filled the cold air. For a while, they were rooted in their spots.

“Sit.” Finally, Bill ordered.

Arabella followed.

Bill strode forward and sat on the couch in front of her. He crossed his legs and spread his arms on the back seat. The contract was in his right hand.

“Speak.” He ordered.

Arabella composed herself. She felt very wrong about signing the contract without reading it. How could she blame herself when all she wanted was to be free from him? She had already suffered a lot in his hand.

“I want to live with Adam.” She directly said with a serious tone. That was all she wanted.

“Hmmm…” Bill muttered unmoved from his position. “I can give you that.” He declared.

After hearing him, she felt a bit satisfied but not so privileged.

“What’s the deal?” She exactly knew he would not give it to her for free.

“Live here,” Bill replied with a serious demeanor.

Arabella nodded. At this time, she had to grab all opportunities he was giving before he took them all away.

“You sleep with me every night.” Bill continued with a demanding tone. Arabella frowned but she held her stubbornness and nodded. She didn’t want to lose the chance he was giving.

“You are not allowed to see that Hansen again or that man in your apartment.” Bill continued his demands.

Arabella frowned. She could do that to Jayson as she herself didn’t want to be the cause of Margaret's jealousy but not Damien. For her, Damien is a family.

“Damien…” Arabella tried to say something but seeing Bill’s displeased face, she held her words then she nodded.

"You will work for me and serve me." He continued with serious eyes fixated on her. For Adam, she could do it so she nodded.

"You have to give me what I want including..." Bill stopped.

"Including?" With a puzzled expression, she asked.

"Including my satisfaction on bed." Bill continued without any care of vulgarity.

"What?" Arabella frowned in disgust and disbelief at his words. "I'm gonna stay as Adam's mom not your hooker at night." She strongly refused.

Bill just smirked and raised the contract again liked reminding her about it.

Arabella held herself to slap him. She heaved a deep sigh to get rid of the thought. She just looked at him fiercely and nodded carrying a strong desperate will.

Bill grinned in satisfaction.

“One more thing, my mom will live with us for a while. Treat her nice..” Bill then announced.
