Trapped with a Lawyer novel Chapter 62

An hour later, the three women and three men casually walked out of the hotel.

The reporters, who had beem long been blocked outside the hotel, rushed to them as they first saw Ella and Yvonne Yan.

"Mrs. Samuel, can you tell us whether you spent last night with Sum or not?"

"Mrs. Samuel, did you sleep in the same room with Sum?"

...

So many questions overwhelmed Ella.

Ella felt very strange facing the camera again and struggled to remimeber how to best answer these reporters.

Her silence gave the reporters the impression of assurance and nearly drove them nuts.

"Mr. Sum, were you with Mrs. Samuel into the hotel and in the same room?" This reporter had asked him frankly.

"Mrs. Samuel, as the wife of Samuel Shao, it is rumored that your?relationship is in a bad state. Are you going through divorce procedures now?"

"As is recorded in document, you are not divorced yet. Are you now cheating on Mr. Samuel?"

...

There were so many reporters that it was hard for them to step forward.

Ella had planned to say nothing because she knew that the more she said, the harder was to make it clear. But in the now current events, she knew that the reporterts wouldn't leave her if she didn't gave them something.

She took a microphone, the reporters shutting their mouths up right away. She spoke: "I will love my husband forever and didn't and will never do something that involves cheating on him. I can make that promise with my life. As for what happened yesterday, it was nothing but a class reunion party."

The reporters became furious again: "If so, Mrs. Samuel, can you please explain why Mr. Samuel showed up in public with another woman the other day?"

"And by the way, why did your husband took your son out with his ex. Can you explain that?"

Ella answered impassive: "You should go to his office and ask him rather than me. Thanks." When she finished her words, Sum helped her clean the way out in front of her and led her to the parking lot where her car was.

Suddenly, a familiar Porsche stopped right in front of the hotel before they had already reached the parking lot.

Ella's heart beat faster and faster at this moment. Nothing was more familiar to her than this car.

The driver's door opened, and a well-dressed Samuel got out of the car.

The reporters crowded his car, as the car lights were flashing?at them.

Samuel looked at this woman gently, with a kind of ruthlessness that sewpt across his eyes: "Honey, say goodbye to your classmates and let's go home."

Ella was shocked about what he had done. She felt like she was having a dream when she saw that Samuel was smiling at her.

With his arm around her waist, Samuel came close to her ear and warned her in a low voice, "Don't make trouble for me!" These words violently drew Ella out from her dream.

Then she hugged with Sum and the others and said goodbye: "My husband came to pick me up. I need to leave first. See you."

Although she was in a total mess, she pretended to be happy in public. After all, she was an actress and knew how to hide her real feelings.

Samuel's appearing and Ella's farewell to the others puzzled the reporters. It seemed that the plot they had thought of was going to another direction whatsoever.

Wasn't it rumored that Mrs. Samuel had been cheating on her husband? Why he was now picking her from the hotel?

Meanwhile, Ella acted as elegantly as possible. It seemed that nothing had ever had happened to her.

Samuel opened the door of the front passenger seat and then fastened her seat belt.

He drove the car away, leaving the reporters behind, wandering at what had just happened.

At the same time, all the others sneaked away from this trouble-ridden place in their own cars.

However Samuel's calm?appearance couldn't just peace out this storm that had broke overnight. Although reporters didn't cover too much of this on the news, it continued to go viral on the internet.

Different opinions divided people into separate groups on the internet. Some people believed her story while others criticized and believed it was just a hoax.

While some music was playing at a low volume in the car, there wasn't a single word uttered between them.

"Samuel, I did nothing wrong last night.... I stayed with Mammy and Yvonne in the same room." She dared to confess that she was drunk, so she only chose to tell him of those facts that were in her best.

But he still said nothing. The silence continued to fill the air around them in the car.

"It's true, I swear I didn't lie to you." While she was speaking to him, she glanced at this poker-faced man standing next to her.

... The silence between the two of them continued…

Noticing that he didn't want to speak with her whatsoever, Ella stopped talking.

A few minutes later, Samuel's phone rang:

"Hello.... She's with me in the car. Fine... OK." Then he passed the phone to Ella.

It was Eason. Ella put the phone to her ear: "Brother."

"Ella, what happened to you yesterday?" He had tried calling her for over ten times but to no avail.

Ella cleared her throat and said: "Everything is fine.. brother. I just went to a class reunion party. Reporters exaggerate what they saw." These paparazzi?had now went too far. She had been off the stage for a long time. Why didn't they let her lead a normal life?

"If so, why were you in Sum's arms."

What Eason asked was exactly what Samuel had been angry about all along, and the reason he was so silent in the car.

"Thing is... Emmm... Brother, stop asking. That's all I wanted to talk about. Bye." Ella voided his answer and hung up the phone on him straight.

After she returned Samuel's phone, twenty minutes later, Ella was brought to The Royal Mansion.

Standing at the door and waiting for Samuel, Ella was a little afraid.

Why did he bring her to this house? Shouldn't they go back to the old house?

Samuel opened the door with his finger print and Ella followed him in.

The moment she stepped through the door, the door was shut heavy by Samuel.

Ella's heart beat faster than ever, so she changed her shoes in a hurry and quickly ran upstairs.

Just when she rose to her feet, her wrist was firmly yanked.

Samuel forced her to the living room and threw her on the sofa.

Her hand was against the sofa's cushions. She fell on them but didn't hurt too much, as they were soft.

She rubbed her wrist and looked up the approaching man in front of her. She looked pathetic.

"Drop your act!" His anger rose again when he saw her face and attitude.

His cold voice hurt her heart right away.

"Samuel, I had done nothing wrong to you, nor cheated on you." She hurried to restrain her feelings and explained.

Samuel ignored her explanation and further scolded: "We are not divorced yet, how can you date another man. How dare you do this!" His finger pinched her cheek.
