Trapped with a Lawyer novel Chapter 215

With a smile on her face, Ella ignored Samuel completely and kept looking at her phone.

Samuel glanced at Ella, and opened the door for her.

After she took off her boots, Samuel pressed her against the wall. Luckily, she still had her socks on and stood on the carpet, so her feet would not feel cold.

"Samuel? What are you doing? Let me go." Samuel wanted to "punish" her, as she had ignored him all the way home.

Samuel stood close to her and grabbed her phone to see what she was busy doing. It turned out that she was in a group chat with her friends, snatching up red envelopes.

Samuel went through the chat record and saw several messages from her friends, reminding her that it was her turn to send a red envelope.

Without thinking, he switched off her phone and put it in the shoe cabinet.

"What are you doing? I'm still chatting with my friends. You are being unreasonable." She stared at him, reproachfully.

It was her turn to send a red envelope, and now her friends would think that she is a penny pincher, as she only snatched them but didn't send any.

But Samuel was too blame.

"I have something to tell you." Even though he wanted to tell her, Samuel could not resist kissing her.

Ella pushed him away and put on her cotton slippers.

"What do you want to tell me? Stop seducing me. Have you done something bad? Are you afraid of me finding out?"

She took off her coat, placed it across one hand and walked to their bathroom on the second floor.

Samuel also took off his shoes and followed her to the bedroom. After hanging up her coat using a hanger, Ella went to the dressing room.

Samuel followed her to the dressing room. Unfazed, Ella ignored Samuel's lingering looks and changed her clothes in front of him.

He noticed that Ella didn't blush like she used to when she changed clothes in front of him, which turned him on immensely.

Before Ella could button her nightgown, Samuel held her hand gently.

"I like you in the nightgown, without buttoning it up." Though Ella tried to stay calm, she blushed eventually. The way he looked at her and the tone of his voice, did a number on her.

Samuel picked her up and went to the bedroom instantly.

Ella tried to tie her nightgown, but it was all in vain. The moment she was thrown on the bed, Samuel loosened the tie.

"Stop. Wait. Stop." It was all happening so fast.

Samuel thought of what happened this morning, and stopped what he was doing.

He got off Ella, turned over and lay on the bed beside her.

"I'm sorry, Ella."

Even if he said it ten thousand times, he still could not make up for what he had done to her.

Ella realised that something was terribly wrong, as Samuel had apologised twice already. It was unlike him. She turned over, and lay on his chest, looking into his eyes, "Samuel. Be honest with me. Did you cheat on me?"

'If he did... if he really did... what will I do?' Ella murmured to herself. She genuinely didn't know what she would do.

Samuel couldn't help but laugh. He played with her hair for a while, and then replied, "No. I did not. You are the only woman I want. I'm sorry."

"Sorry for what then?" She became anxious and hit his chest playfully, several times.

Samuel turned over and got on top of her again. "I will only tell you if you satisfy me."

Ella was pissed off because of his attitude, but she kept her temper at bay and smiled at him instead. "Yes. My lord."

She moved down a little bit, licked her lips and kissed his Adam's apple gently.

She had learnt this move from filming. And just like it had worked on the character in the movie, it worked for Samuel as well.

Samuel blinked rapidly, shocked at what Ella had just done.

But unfortunately Ella didn't have any other tricks to use, so she cleared her throat, and said it in a childish voice. "Samuel, if you don't tell me, I will get angry. I really will."

"I'm telling you, I'm so sorry."

He still had not answered her question, which left Ella speechless. Was he doing it on purpose?

Ella pushed him away, sauntering off to the bathroom to take a shower.

Samuel sighed, he knew he had to face what he had done. He stopped her and gestured to return. She turned around and walked back, hesitantly.

"Ella, I know what happened four years ago."

His eyes averted, as if guilty of something. Ella was a little confused.

A lot happened four years ago, and she didn't know specifically what he was referring to. "What are you talking about?"

Unconsciously, she crossed her arms across her chest, as if protecting herself from what he was about to say.

"I know that you did not have sex with anyone that night, and the baby was mine." He's voice dropped to a whisper, as he choked back tears.

Ella fell silent for a moment. He had finally told her what was bothering him. Her eyes moistened and then she looked at him.

Did he know that she gave birth to their baby?

Ella's silence made Samuel assume that she was very unhappy. He reached out and held her tightly.

"I'm sorry, Ella. I'm sorry for putting you through all this. I promise that I will trust you whatever happens. I will be there for you." Thinking that he had killed his own baby, Samuel wanted to kill himself.

"It's too late to apologise." Ella said to him.

Samuel knew that it was late and that he would have to live with guilt from now on.

He did felt sorry for what he had done to Ella and the innocent baby.

Even though Samuel had opened up, Ella still didn't want him to know about Jane.

Without warning, Samuel raised Ella's hand and slapped himself on the face.

"Samuel, what are you doing!?" She shouted and withdraw her hand.

"Don't be upset. You can yell and hit me. Let it all out."

"Samuel..." She held back her tears. How could she do that to him? He treated her well and Jane was fine, which made her less angry. Everything was finally perfect.

Ella lightly touched his face, and looked at his charming face fondly.

She just wanted to let go of her anger, and make the best of the rest of their lives.

They deserved the happiness after all that had happened to them.

"Why don't you hit me?"

"I don't want to." Ella averted her eyes as she said so.

Samuel smiled bitterly, as he didn't expect such a response. Ella deserved more than he had done to her.

"Ella, my Ella." He murmured, and kissed her, affectionately.

They sat in silence for a few seconds, as Ella pondered over whether to tell him about Jane.

"Samuel, actually I..." She was about to tell him, but stopped and thought, 'Never mind. I will tell him later.'
