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

Chapter 352: Matter Of The Heart

Eric had been living abroad for a while and worked in his head office, visited Rosy, and hung out with

some of his guy friends but it didn’t work the way he wanted it to be. Most of the time, Rosy was there

for him.

That girl just wanted someone to talk to a lot to forget the unexpected grief in her family.

His uncle Byer was always drunk and wasted.

Obviously, his guilt was eating him up because of the death of his wife caused by him.

Eric could feel Rosy was trying to keep up but was already aloof from her father.

Their relationship seemed to have no chance at all as Rosy was also blaming him for her mother's

death.

Because of her father’s mistress, the disaster for her family took place.

The house that was once a home suddenly became hell.

Eric cursed the girl who caused them grief, especially the death of his loving Aunt.

Earlier, Eric was frustrated.

It had been months that he kept himself busy but there was no progress on forgetting the masked girl.

Every time he goes to sleep, the last thing he could see was her smile and the sparkles in her eyes

underneath her white half mask.

Her scent was unforgettable like he always smelled her wherever he goes.

Trying to assess himself, he was could not believe how this girl affects his daily life.

The girl who he never saw her real face.

It was funny to say but he didn’t care what her real face looked like.

He liked her for being just simply her.

Maybe he just wanted like that too.

With Hanna, he felt she felt the same for him.

They were compatible in many ways.

They laughed with awkward jokes.

She taught him to dance on the dance floor with his coat and tie.

She drank like there was no tomorrow and she didn’t worry about tomorrow.

Hanna was not a person who was classy and sophisticated but he found himself changed and adapting

to what she was doing.

She taught him how to enjoy life.

She taught him how to laugh out loud in public without caring for anyone.

She kept on flying even though she had limited capabilities but it didn’t make her stop.

She was always looking for any possibilities in all the impossible.

Her smile was always there even though she was not rich.

That’s all he likes about Hanna.

Eric wanted to see her again badly.

He wanted to spend the night with her just to be with her and he felt he was going crazy without seeing

her.

It frustrated him a lot. '

So, without any hesitation, he flew back to Capital Z and went directly to see Hanna.

“Is there a problem, Eric?” Hanna rushed in like it was an emergency.

Eric looked at the masked girl with his heart's contentment.

He strode closer to her and without any moment of delay, he hugged her tight.

Eric was satisfied with his decision to see her.

He could not deprive his heart of its happiness and contentment forever.

At least, he tried but he failed.

The test of time was killing him and even though he was holding to his principle, he could not control

the matter of his heart.

“Eric, are you okay?” Hanna sounded worried in his arms.

“Hmmm… nothing. I just….” Eric closed his eyes while his head nestled on her shoulder. “I just miss

you.” He could hear his own heart drumming loudly.

“But… I thought…. I thought…” Hanna on the other side sounded hesitant.

Obviously, she was totally puzzled by his call.

The day Eric said ‘goodbye’, made her very sad.

Of all men she met, it was only Eric who captured her heart.

Though she wanted to be with him all the time, she could not force the situation.

She was not confident to match Eric starting from his status, his group of friends, and his elite society

where he belongs.

She had nothing but a rented shabby apartment and was abandoned by her brother because of her

poor lifestyle.

For her, Eric was too high for her to reach.

She had already accepted that they didn’t belong to each other though she liked him a lot.

Since he was her first love, Hanna knew his name was already engraved in her heart.

“Shhh…” Eric stopped her stuttering voice.

He could feel her very puzzled by the situation.

He just wanted to pacify her. “Can we go somewhere to talk?” Eric uttered putting a vibrant tone to

ease her.

“Where?” She was still enclosed in his arms.

There was no doubt that she missed Eric so much.

Eric released her.

He held her hand.

Though they didn’t have any labels, their hands were at ease with each other like they had the same

good understanding of the situation.

Eric looked Hanna in the eyes seriously. “Do you trust me?” He asked sincerely not breaking his stare

at her.

The warmth from Eric’s hand was already giving her an instant electrifying sensation.

She didn’t know if she was just so excited to see him again but she could feel it was more than that.

Hanna nodded at Eric with a sweet smile on her face.

Eric felt satisfied as he squeezed her hand a bit then they walked holding hands to his car.

Eric drove directly to his house.

Hanna was the second girl he brought into his house aside from Arabella.

Since Ivan was staying with Rosy for a quick vacation, his mansion was empty.

Eric opened Hanna’s door then she smiled at the man who looked very gorgeous.

Eric opened tap his keycard to open the door then they strode inside.

Just when the door closed, Eric pulled Hanna to him.

Hanna was shoved directly into his embrace.

She smiled.

Her smile made Eric smiled too then their eyes met.

Eric suddenly sealed her lips with his.

Hanna had no time to process with the quick event with Eric and her.

She just was so overwhelmed with the longingness they felt for each other.

His kiss was hungry and she knew she was cooperating with him.

His hands were cupping her back pressing her more to his body.

Their scents mixed together like their bodies were pressing each other.

Without breaking the intimate kiss, Eric grabbed Hanna to his master bedroom.

The sound of the door closing made Hanna snap back to her senses.

She knew everything was too quick and she confirmed that she really liked Eric a lot but is she ready?

There was a big question in her mind that troubled her.

When she was young, she could not find any man attractive as she grew up hating her father.

The things her father did to her mother made Hanna curse all men.

She promised that she would not follow her mother’s fate.

She would never involve her heart with any man but now, it seemed she was breaking her rules.

What if Eric would do to her what her dad did to her mom?

Just the thought of it broke her heart.

She looked at Eric with scared eyes.

Eric seemed to notice her stare at him.

He held her hands then he kissed them.

His sincere eyes met apprehensive eyes.

“Hanna, I’m sorry if I can’t control myself when I am with you. I know it’s fast but we will not do it if you

are not ready. Okay?” Eric’s tone was serious.

His eyes were gentle like he didn’t want to see her troubled and feel worried.

Hanna looked at Eric sincerely then finally she smiled.

Her arms went to his neck giving him her approval.

Eric smiled at her too. “Are… are you sure?” He wanted to confirm it.

If he had to follow his instinct, he had already put through everything but of course, he was not the type

of man who would force someone to sleep with him.

Hearing Eric’s question, Hanna nodded. “Yes.” With a smile, she answered.

Hanna was still troubled because she had her what ifs but just for tonight, she decided to make herself

happy.

It was just so seldom for her to do things to her self-contentment as she was always working to sustain

the needs of her family.

Forgetting what was going to happen tomorrow for her happiness was not bad at all for the night.

If she was going to give her virginity tonight to Eric, she was sure that she would not regret it.

Whatever happened like if Eric wanted to say ‘goodbye’ to her again tomorrow, she was already

prepared for it and ready to be hurt.

She loved him already and giving her virginity to the person he loved was not something regrettable.

When Eric got her permission, he smiled satisfyingly.

He admired Hanna to be this brave.

He kissed her again then he suddenly carried her and gently placed her on his bed.

Eric pinned her down. NôvelDrama.Org owns this text.

He was on top of Hanna.

He was looking at her lovingly.

Under her mask were meaningful eyes.

They were lovely and he could not afford to make her eyes cry.

Eric was controlling himself though he wanted to ravish her earlier when she entered his room.

Eric rested his forehead on her then he whispered, “I love you.”

Finally, he uttered what his heart wanted to tell her.

Hearing Eric’s confession, Hanna’s tears slipped from the corner of her eyes.

She finally heard his confession.

Her heart was thumping so loud like it was jumping joyfully.

The time that they were separated from each other helped each other a lot as they realized how they

felt lost when without each other and how much they missed each other.

Now that they were together again, they finally realized their true feelings for each other.

They both didn’t want to be separated away from each other like they didn’t want to live anymore

without each other.

With Eric’s confession, Hanna couldn’t help but kissed Eric.

She was happy. Very happy.

The kiss lasted a minute.

Eric’s hands became wild as they traveled all over Hanna’s body.

Hanna was not good at this caused her to be overwhelmed with the wild electrifying sensations in her

body.

Eric took off his shirt in front of her.

Her eyes widened seeing his sexy muscled body.

She gulped hard but tried to make it secretly not to feel embarrassed.

Eric crawled backed on her.

He looked at her with fancy.

His eyes were pierced to hers.

It seemed Eric was asking her if she was ready to remove her mask.

As his hands were about to take off her mask, she dodged instinctively.

Her expression was uneasy but then after a while, Hanna nodded giving him her permission.

Now that he got her permission, finally he could see her face. With the happiness that he could not

contain, Eric smiled while his hand held her mask. He was obviously excited that he could see her real

face. When his fingers touched the hem of her mask, his phone on the bedside table rang. At first, Eric

didn't mind it but it continued ringing ruining the intimate scene. He stopped and released a heavy

breath of frustration. He looked at Hanna with an apologetic look and Hanna just smiled at him. For her,

Eric was cute when disturbed.

Eric smirked then he reached for the phone.

The plan was to turn off his mobile but when his fingers touched the screen it chimed.

An unknown number was prompted on the screen.

From there, he could clearly see the message.

'I have your wife. If you wish to see her alive come to this address alone.'

Then a map was sent with a pinned location followed by a picture. Eric frowned. He thought it was a

scammer but his instinct had felt it wrong already. When he pressed the picture file, he was

dumbfounded.

Arabella was shown in the picture tied and captured.

She was unconscious and very weak.

Eric felt very angry and worried. He quickly called the number and someone answered.

"I'm going right now! Don't you even lay a finger or touch a strand of her hair or I will kill you!" Eric

roared.

Hearing Eric, Hanna was shocked. She sensed danger.

After Eric dropped the call, he got his shirt hurriedly.

"I'm sorry, I have something important to do. I will drop you off." Eric said quickly. Hanna felt

disappointed but she managed to nod and she quickly jumped out of his bed.

In the car, it was very silent. Hanna wanted to ask him but she felt Eric didn't want to share the matter

with her. There was a seriousness and furiousness in his expression. It was too opposite from the Eric

she had known earlier. She felt scared and worried but she was still suppressing it.

When Eric felt Hanna's uneasiness, he held her hand. He placed her hand to his lips and he kissed it

tenderly.

"Don't worry. Everything will be fine. I will fix everything and I will come back to you. Can you wait for

me?" Eric then spoke looking at her sincerely.

Eric's words were enough to make Hanna's heart find its calm. She smiled and nodded.

When Eric arrived at Hanna's destination, he pulled her to him and kissed her again tenderly. There

was no doubt that he could not get enough of her but tonight he had to leave her first. After a minute of

passionate kissing, "I love you." Eric said it again.

"Hanna? My daughter?" Sen. Meyer's shocked voice made everyone snap back to their senses.

Eric was looking at the face of Hanna as he clenched his fists so hard.
