Trapped with a Lawyer novel Chapter 52

"Okay, let's go!" Ella smiled at his promise, and led the way, carrying their son towards the men's goods area.

Samuel was left behind. He has already reached the point where he has no other choice but to just admire Ella's mood swings.

It was more than nine o 'clock in the evening when the two went back to their old home.

They didn't drive, but walked for the whole night, so Ella was really exhausted. But she also felt very happy and fulfilled. She just wanted to take a shower and go to bed.

But before that, she went to their grandmother's room.

Melody knew that the two had come back. She had waited for them before going to sleep. She was relieved as she turned off the lights and was getting ready to rest when somebody knocked on her door.

She sat up from the bed, turned on the bedside lamp, and wore her reading glasses, "Come in."

Ella saw Melody sitting on the bed and realized that she was already going to sleep, "Grandma, I'm so sorry to disturb you." Said Ella in an apologizing tone.

"It's okay. Come here, dear." Melody savored these moments that she was not alone. Soon, they will go on and start a family.

Ella opened her handbag, took out a few books and handed them to Melody, "Grandma, I bought some books for you. You can do some reading when you are not busy doing chores. I hope you like them." Melody was a teacher. She always enjoyed reading.

But a rich lady like Melody must have everything. Ella had to really think of something to give to her. After much hesitation, Ella decided to buy some books for her. She hoped she would like them. After all, books do not get old.

When Melody heard that she bought her some books, a large sincere smile bloomed on her face. She took the books, all of which were limited editions of the classics.

"Thank you, dear. I like them. This is so thoughtful of you." She really liked these books. She hadn't had these ones on her bookshelf.

"Well, if you like it, grandmother, I am also happy. Rest early grandma. I'll see you tomorrow morning." Ella thoughtfully tucked her into the quilt, and was about to leave.

But Melody took her hand and made her sit by her bed, "Are you in a good mood now, dear?" She knew that Ella was a bit unhappy these past few days. She asked her about it many times already, but Ella never answered, which made her worry a lot.

Ella thought of Samuel and nodded, "Grandma, everything is okay now." She was no longer angry with Samuel now.

"Well, that's good. You're both good kids. Always speak up your mind. Don't keep it to yourself. It will kill you in the inside." Said Melody with a hint of sincere love. She patted on the back of Ella's hands.

Ella looked at her grey hair. She sobbed imperceptibly that Melody was still worried for her, "I will, grandma."

"Good girl. Grandma likes you. You are so much better than that Emma Gu. Speaking of Emma, the reason I didn't approve her relationship with Sam was not only about the bad things she has done. I am old and experienced now. I can see that she's a cruel, ambitious and scheming woman. That's why I didn't want them to be together."

Ella was much better. Although she was sometimes a bit stubborn, she had a nice, loving heart. She was a very simple woman. She loved Sam with the every corner of her heart.

Ella was dazed to hear Melody talk of Emma like that for the first time. Emma has done bad things? Ella wondered what she meant by that.

However, Melody did not continue, and Ella did not ask, either. She just politely nodded. She remembered again what she had done. Should she tell her grandmother?

Would she also think of her in the same way that she thought of Emma?

Melody sensed that something was running on Ella's mind. She can see the struggle in her face.

"What's wrong? Just tell me. Please don't hesitate."

Melody looked at her in an air of concern. It was too painful for Ella to conceal to hide this in her heart, and she was badly convincing herself to tell it to someone.

Samuel had been taking care of his son for more than half an hour, but Ella hadn't come back.

He waited for another twenty minutes, but she still didn't come back.

He could not help but be curious and went to Melody's room and knocked on her door. When he went in, he saw Ella wiping away her tears in a rush.

Melody looked in her usual self. "You can go back to your room, dear. I see what is with you now. Grandma got your back. Don't worry." This matter was not easy to handle. She'd try to let it remain as what it was now, but if Sam knew....

Ella hugged Melody gratefully, "Grandma, thank you." She thanked her from the bottom of her heart. Grandma was so kind to her that she really treated her like her own granddaughter.

Melody patted her on her back and said, "You never need to say that. Just go back and have some rest. Sam is waiting for you."

Samuel was curious what they talked about, but he could see that they wouldn't tell him. He didn't ask and led Ella back to the bedroom.

Samuel closed the door, and forced Ella onto the door with his body, "Could you tell me what you just talked about with grandma?" He has never been this curious.

"You really want to know?" She asked with an obvious anxious tone.

"Of course!"

Ella pushed him away. "Well, wait. I'll tell you after I'm done taking a bath." Actually, she just wanted to have some time to make up a story to tell him.

Samuel nodded and laid in bed, waiting for her to come out and speak to him.

But she just can't make it up.

When she came out of the bathroom, Samuel was already helping their child to drink some milk.

Jerry babbled to him, and Samuel responded with a funny face. They were having a good time.

Ella was really happy to see that, "Samuel, how about we bring Jerry back to our home tomorrow?" They would be together every day.

Samuel thought for a while and said calmly, "It's okay. But how could we give him a sister if she is with us? If you know what I mean…"

It would be better if they have a daughter. They could bring their son back and they will be a happy family of four.

Ella blushed. She sat beside Samuel, took his arm and rested quietly on his shoulder.

Time passed by slowly.

Ella put their sleeping son into his crib. While Ella was cleaning Jerry's milk bottle, Samuel held her by the waist and embraced her from behind.

"Dear, tell me now, what is it?" He didn't forget. He knows she does not want to speak up. He still waited patiently.

Ella's heartbeat quickened. She put the milk bottle on the desk.

Turning back, she held Samuel's neck and kissed him on the lips.

She really couldn't make up a story and hoped this would work.

She was right. It worked.

An intimate and passionate atmosphere floated in the air. They finally did what they long desired.

Early the next morning, Samuel left the old house with Ella.

In addition to attending the court session, Samuel also needed to take Ella for her to see the renovated new house this afternoon.

When they arrived at the company, Emma was already waiting for Samuel in the office.

Rivals in love are always mortal enemies. This vividly describes Emma and Ella right now.

Ella pulled the scarf from her neck, "Sam, dear, it's so hot in here." She removed her silk scarf.

The marks on her neck, as well as the well-spirited Samuel, hurt Emma again.
