Trapped with a Lawyer novel Chapter 211

When Judith got a sight of Anna's protruding stomach, she was speechless, and her heart broke into pieces. It was crystal clear to her whose baby it was.

She still remembered how she aborted her and Eason's child a couple of years ago without letting Eason know.

At that moment, she was more eager to see Eason. She did not decline Anna's welcoming invitation. "Thank you, " she politely thanked Anna. Then, Judith accompanied Ella into the villa.

Jane looked at Judith, who came in with her mother, strangely. Ella, however, seemed to have forgotten to introduce the little girl to Judith.

It was not until Jane took the initiative to say hello to Judith that Ella realized her inattentiveness.

Judith withdrew her hand from Ella's, walked straight to Jane, and patted her head. "Hello, what a nice and cute girl. Who are her parents?"

"Judith, this is my daughter Jane." Ella formally introduced them both.

"Wow, Ella, you are so blessed to have such a lovely girl." Judith stressed. Time had really flown. It was almost like she had just married yesterday and the very next day, she bore a child.

Ella bit her lips anxiously, and added, "You know, I have a son about the same age as well. He is turning five soon."

Was Ella going to call her brother? Or was she trying to prevent Judith from meeting him?

"Auntie, please have a seat, " said Jane, inviting her to sit on the sofa. Deep down, Judith was amused by the little girl.

"Okay, thank you, Jane."

The two sat down facing each other. Anna ordered her servant to serve some more fruits.

Jane looked at Judith from head to toe, trying to comprehend who the stranger was.

Judith saw Anna wrapping her arms around Jane, mesmerised at how she showed affection to her niece.

If the plane she was on had not crashed, she would have had Jane all to herself.

Ella was speechless. As time went by, the ambiance in the room became awkward.

"Ella, could you please introduce me." Anna remarked, looking at Ella reproachfully. It was said that the oldest sister-in-law sometimes acts like a mother. At this moment, Anna commanded in a pleasing tone.

"Eh... Oh, I'm sorry. Anna, this is Judith Song. Judith, say hello to my sister-in-law, Anna."

"Hello, Judith, " Anna greeted Judith, who had been scrutinising her.

She didn't know why Judith had been watching her all this time. Judith unashamedly gazed at Anna.

Anna felt a little uncomfortable, with her hands on her stomach. She wondered who it was this time, and why she came to look for Eason.

Judith regained her presence of mind, and finally had the courage to speak, "Hello, my name is Judith and I'm Eason's girlfriend, "

She didn't mean to humiliate Anna, considering she was pregnant. But since she had been longing for Eason for more than ten years, she did not want to give up that easily.

The ambiance in the room became more apprehensive when Judith spoke her thoughts.

Anna seemed to have felt something move in her stomach when she placed her hands on it.

Nevertheless, she put on a smile, and responded. "Judith, I happen to be Eason's wife. What a coincidence!"

The smile on Anna's face perfectly masked her true emotions.

"I want to see my Eason, " Judith continued. She couldn't wait to see Eason. Even if he had started a family, and had forgotten about her, she hoped Eason could tell her himself. She would not give up unless Eason told her to.

During the years at the tribe, Judith had remained loyal to Eason.

The chieftain's son had wooed her many times. But she had never said yes. She even threatened to commit suicide if she was forced to marry the chieftain's son.

"Seeing Eason? Miss Song really came to the right place. Eason should return soon. You should see him today as long as you patiently wait, " She glanced at Ella who seemed to be troubled. Anna roughly understood the whole story.

Judith was different from the girls that came before. She was a woman who had a special place in Eason's heart.

"Judith, my brother has been married. Eason and Anna have enjoyed a wonderful life as a married couple. It's best you keep that in mind." Ella took a deep breath and expressed what she had been keeping in her heart for a very long time. She had experienced emotional pain from Samuel's past girlfriends, and did not want Judith to come in between Anna and Eason.

Judith couldn't bear the pain anymore, speculating that Anna was a good wife, as Ella seemed to like her very much.

"Ella, I do understand. But I have been yearning for your brother for more than a decade now. I really need to see him. I will put an end to this if Eason tells me that he doesn't love me anymore." Judith replied, smiling ruefully and thinking how miserable she was in love.

Was ten years of longing and dreaming about to come to a bad end? If Judith had not come back to look for Eason, Anna would have probably been moved by her faith in love.

How could she have faith when Judith says she missed her husband?

"Since Miss Song loved my husband so much, why haven't you and Eason been together?" Unknowingly, Anna's words brought tears to Judith's eyes.

"More than a decade ago, the plane I was on crashed in the Pacific Ocean. I passed out and woke up in a land where an unknown tribe resided. I had been held captive by the tribe for more than ten years. Due to my disappearance, my family thought I was dead..." Judith replied.

"Eason thought of this way too. Ella just told me that Eason had been looking for me for several years before he finally gave up.

Anna, I didn't mean to disturb you or ruin your life. I just want to see Eason just for once. Please don't think too much about it."

……

Judith was truly different from other women he had. Anna found it difficult to hate and be mad at her.

"Well, what would you do after you see him?" Although Anna remained smiling, her left hand, which was held by Jane tightly, betrayed her anxiousness.

With tears welling up in her eyes, Judith looked at Anna, wondering what she was going to do after seeing Eason.

"If he doesn't love me anymore, I will immediately leave and never show up again." She knew forced love was not true love, so she would not compel Eason to love her again.

"But what if he still loves you?" Anna asked. Anna's words brought a smile to Judith's face.

Without a second thought, she answered "If he still loves me, I want to be with him forever. Nothing will separate us apart!" This was what she had been longing for.

"How about me and the child that I'm bearing?" Anna interrogated.

Silence fell in the room.

Jane was attentive enough to understand the conversation between the adults. When they were silent, she uttered, "Miss Song, my uncle loves my aunt very much. He embraces my aunt in his sleep every night. He kisses my aunt's tummy every morning before he leaves for work.

He said that my aunt got pregnant after a great personal cost, and he would not let my aunt suffer anymore.

And, when he was in France, he saved my aunt from getting hit by a car. He was the one hurt, and auntie didn't even get a scratch. He lay in bed for several months due to the accident.

He kisses auntie every day. I feel embarrassed every time I see them.

Since my aunt is pregnant, he often travels far away to buy her whatever she wants.

Miss Song, I don't like you. From the moment you appeared, you have said that you wanted to see uncle. You made my aunt upset."
