Trapped with a Lawyer novel Chapter 188

Then Lola joined, and soon after everyone had joined in the conversation.

"I'll have to organize a party to officially welcome Ella back home tomorrow night. Luckily we have her back!" Daisy got rid of Chuck who was fiddling around and edited a message on her phone.

"Good idea!" agreed Lola.

"Do you still remember four years ago when we went shopping and had fun at a nightclub. That is a good night!" Lillian sighed, 'how times flies, ' she thought. Four years had passed and now she had had her second child.

"We'll get together tomorrow!" Tears rolled down Ella's cheeks. How lucky she was to have friends like them!

Anna had fallen asleep. After all the other girls had came to an agreement, Eason replied through Anna's phone, "Anna is asleep. She's not coming. Have fun!"

Ella sent him a sad emoji with the message, 'Eason, I'll ask Anna myself tomorrow. Have a good rest!

But the rest of us are definitely meeting up.'

Eason thought about it. Well, it may not be a bad idea to have Anna get out for fun. He replied, "Okay then."

It was already midnight when the girls reluctantly put down their phones to stop chatting and went to bed, urged by their husbands.

The next day after Ella woke up, she went to the kindergarten Eason arranged for Jane and attended the entry formalities.

After that, she went to Stars Shining Entertainment Company affiliated to SL Group where Eden was already waiting for her.

Ella had requested Harry to hire Eden as well. Together they were the ultimate package team and dynamic duo, and she didn't anyone else to be her agent.

As a result, Eden agreed to move to C Country for her.

A contract was placed in front of Ella who signed it without even reading it carefully.

Harry and Lola would never cheat her, so the contract was nothing but a formality. She didn't need to worry about anything.

When she was walking out of the company headquarters, she ran into Joseph, "Hey, Ella. So you're really joining us, aren't you?" Joseph heard that Ella was going to work for Starry Company. Finding her walking out of the company headquarters confirmed his suspicions.

"Yeah. We'll be colleagues then. Hope to get on well with you!" Joseph was already married at his age. But it was affecting his career in ways he didn't see possible.

More than anything, he was getting more popular as a loyal husband.

Joseph smiled at her, "Me, too. You're Lillian's and Lola's friend, and I'm sure we will be good friends too. I'm sure you'll do great." As his voice faded away, he patted her on the shoulder to encourage her.

"Okay. We're going shopping tonight. Are you coming with us?" Ella teased him.

"No, I'm not interested, but..." Joseph suddenly sounded serious as if he had recalled something. He lowered his voice, "No more dubious fellows for my wife!"

Dubious fellows?

Recalling what happened four years ago, Ella tittered, "Okay. I'll keep that in mind!" In fact, she went to the club four years ago to annoy Samuel, but it was different this time. Nothing similar would happen.

"Then I'll be relieved." Joseph let out a sigh, as if he were truly worried about this.

Ella was a little speechless, "Don't worry. You have my word!" In fear that Joseph may stop Lillian from hanging out with her, Ella gave a very careful promise.

"Okay. Have you signed your contract yet?"

They parted after a short casual conversation.

At 4 p.m, As required by Melody, Ella drove Jane to the old house.

Busy with his business, Samuel seldom went back there. Recently, Vincent and Viola were on a business trip to Germany.

Consequently, Jane could stay in the old house.

Melody had a huge grin when Jane arrived. Her wish had mostly been realized. The marriage of Samuel and Ella was the last piece of the puzzle. Her life would finally be perfect if they could get married.

After Ella played with Jerry and Jane for a couple of hours, it was almost time to meet Lola. Soon after, she left the old house.

In Room 666 of Storm Nightclub.

Five girls opened congregated under the dim light. Led by Lola, every one of them gave toasts to the friendship.

"Cheers!" They clinked glasses and started drinking. Anna took a sip and the rest of them gulped down half a cup.

Next, they sang songs karaoke-style, using two microphones.

After a series of songs, Anna breathed heavily on the sofa, "Excuse me, I'm going to the bathroom."

Ella put down the bottle in her hand, "Anna, I'll go with you."

Anna didn't refuse and walked out of the room with Ella.

When Ella returned from the bathroom, she saw someone familiar entering the room opposite theirs.

She thought it was Catherine.

She quickened the pace to have a closer look, but the door was already closed.

In Room 668, Catherine, who rushed in, put down her limited-edition handbag and angrily sat down opposite a man, "Mr. Fuller, I really doubt your reliability. Samuel suspects me! This is no good."

Abbot Fuller drew on his cigarette, his beard shaking in anger. He replied in poor English, "Miss Gu, we shouldn't be blamed. But they're too powerful!"

To prevent Samuel from finding more clues, a lot of people had been killed. The police was investigating these suspicious deaths with great intensity.

"I don't care. I paid you millions to get this job done. Don't you dare screw me over." Fevered, Catherine stood up from the chair and knocked over the wine Abbot Fuller was drinking.

He didn't feel sorry for the wine, though. It wasn't him that should pay for it.

"Behave yourself, in case the police discover what we have done."

"Why?! Ella is back! The bitch! I will never let her go. She makes me so mad. I have the itch to kill her right now! " Catherine hated Ella to the core.

"Miss Gu, calm down, or you'll get all of us killed." Finishing his last words, Abbot Fuller stood up, fixed his collar and strode out of the room.

Staring at the closing door, Catherine smashed a glass right at it, "Damn you idiots!"
