Trapped with a Lawyer novel Chapter 51

Then he rolled over and held her arms onto the bed so that she would not be able to move.

"Come on, what's wrong?" He was here to soothe her, but he... got used to having her. She has no come home for days. The apartment was lifeless and very uncomfortable.

Ella's eyes were filled with tears when she thought of what happened the other night. She looked into Samuel's eyes, "If you still like her...I won't be with you anymore." It's so damn hard to love someone. There will always be pain. It is always a risk to take.

Would Samuel know that her heart was in so much pain when she said that? She was so sad...

Tears ran down the corners of her eyes, and streamed down her smooth cheeks.

He kissed her gently on the corners of her eyes. Her tears tasted salty…but the thought of her consumed him. Emma had never cried when she was with him.

He has always thought that he liked strong women like Emma, But when he saw Ella's tears, he felt as if he did not have the heart to let her cry, nor did he dislike her. He just felt love.

He used to think that he would be very impatient in taking care of a delicate, crying woman.

But he found out he was wrong about that. Love makes you do things you haven't done before. He didn't feel irritated or impatient as he comforted her with everything he has.

And Ella just asked if he was still into Emma... He didn't know either, whether he still liked Emma. Maybe there was still a concern about her. All he knows is that he truly loves Ella.

"I have married you. You are my wife. I won't give up on you." He also thought at first that his marriage with Ella wouldn't last too long.

But now, he realized that he has loved the feeling of being with her. He is so much happier when he is with her.

He knew that she was always hiding her true colors from him. Maybe she was afraid that he would hate her real self, so she always tried to please him in every way she can.

She really didn't have to be so tired, because whatever her true character was, he would accept it. As long as she did not betray him or cheat him, he would treat her well and love her for the rest of their lives.

Ella shook her head, "I don't want a man holding me and thinking about other women, even calling her name."

He frowned at her words. Did he call Emma's name the night he was drunk? Oh, no. If that was true, he did not mean it.

If that was true, he could understand why she left without saying a word, her silent cold war with him, and that she said she wanted to quit...

"I'm sorry." He hugged her tightly and apologized.

Damn him for doing this to her.

Ella softened her stand when she heard his apology. It couldn't be helped, the person who fell in love first was always so humble and forgiving...

She might even feel low about herself, but couldn't help loving him.

In the quiet bedroom, the woman sobbed under her short breaths. Full of guilt, he held her tightly, apologizing to her again and again.

Ten minutes later, Ella was still crying. Samuel felt defeated. How come it's harder to pacify a woman than to fight hundreds of complicated lawsuits?

This would do. "I'm already getting ready for our wedding. How can you be my bride if you break and hurt your eyes by crying?" He wiped her teary eyes.

He said that to make her happy, but Ella cried even more. This is getting so difficult.

Her Samuel said he was preparing for their wedding. She was so happy. But she was also afraid that it might be too good to be true.

Samuel was stunned and was speechless for a while. How come she cried to that?

He changed his position, laid down beside her, took her in his arms, and asked anxiously, "Don't you want to marry me anymore?"

The woman rested her face in his arms and shook her head.

"Don't you want to marry me?" She already did.

She shook her head.

"Do you want to dump me?"

Ella shook her head again. Samuel rolled his eyes. A woman's heart was really hard to get. It's like looking for a needle at the bottom of the sea!

Three minutes later, Ella wiped her tears and sat up on the bed.

"Hubby, let's go downstairs."

......

Samuel was impressed to see Ella looking completely normal with the exception of her reddish eyes.

Don't guess what a woman thinks; this phrase is so true! You guessed for nothing. What you thought was all wrong.

Samuel stood from the bed and led her to the door.

Ella paused, "Wait a minute, I have to wash my face." It would be strange to go downstairs like this.

Leaning on the door, he nodded and watched her enter the bathroom. Her curvy body getting the best out of him.

When they went back to the dining room, Mrs. Qi was already serving food on the table. Jerry had fallen asleep and was placed on a small bed they have prepared for him in the living room.

Melody looked at them with great concern when she saw them coming down together.

When she noticed Ella's eyes were red, she slapped at Samuel's arm, "You ungrateful little brat! How dare you bully your wife!" She would have shouted at Samuel only if her grandson is not sleeping.

Samuel stood his ground, motionless. Ella hurriedly pulled an angry Melody back, "Grandma, grandma, don't be angry. Samuel didn't bully me." Grandma was really nice to her! Just like her parents, Melody couldn't bear to see Emma hurt.

Looking at her granddaughter-in-law protecting her grandson in this way, Melody pointed at Samuel and said, "Look how thoughtful your wife is! Be more like her! Treat her nicely! You don't have any idea how lucky you are."

Samuel nodded cheerily and pulled Ella over by her shoulder, "As you command, grandma. And we will bring a great-granddaughter to you soon!" He wanted another daughter too.

Ella shyly tugged at the rim of his garments, and quietly protested, "How could you say that!"

Melody was satisfied, bursting into laughter, "That is my grandson. Good. I will forgive you this time. Come and have dinner." With that, she led Ella to the dining table.

Viola and Vincent were having a meeting some place in the city, so it was only them at home. The atmosphere was welcoming and it felt like home. And it was also the happiest time for Ella in this house. This was the first time that she has felt this happy and contented.

After dinner, the couple shopped in a nearby mall, taking their son with them.

Ella has been spending too little time with her son, so she bought him a lot of things to make up for it.

Samuel pretended to be a little bit sad because all he carried was all his son's stuff. He called back the little woman, pushing the shopping cart in front of him. "Ella."

"Yes?" She stopped and questioningly looked back at him.

Samuel walked to her, "You have two men by your side, and you have bought so many things for the little one who can't even walk...Where's mine?" He got nothing!

Oh! Ella got it now. "You've thrown away all the ties I bought for you last time... I'm afraid that you do not like my gifts..." In fact, she wanted to spoil him with many presents. But she has become so hesitant now. She does not know what he feels.

The expression on her face was so appealing that it made Samuel blush a little. "I won't do it anymore." He sincerely promised. Grandma is right. He is so lucky to have her.
