Trapped with a Lawyer novel Chapter 150

Yang, his driver, was Ella's classmate in high school. Then now Ellie, who happened to be her classmate in college.

"Absolutely." Ellie chuckled. Samuel didn't know that Ellie wanted to roll her eyes every time she saw Catherine.

She felt relieved because she had discovered that Samuel had always been a little bit cold towards Catherine. It was merely a one-way relationship between him and Catherine.

Samuel stopped talking, as his mind raced with thoughts concerning whether Ellie was sent by that woman to watch over him.

In Chuck's Private Hospital.

Ella woke up at about 7 pm.

Looking at the beautiful ceiling and the elegant wallpaper, she recognized that it was the style of Chuck's hospital.

'I'm not dead! Thank God!' Her words remained unsaid.

"Ella, are you awake?" Immediately, Daisy, Lola and Sven gathered around the bed. Lilian also stood beside her.

Seeing the three women looking at her with worry in their eyes, Ella grinned and thought, 'I'm so lucky to have them!'

"I missed you so much!" Ella suddenly said. Upon hearing this, the three of the woman gawked at her, then they all began to laugh out loud.

"I'm pretty sure she's okay since she said that!" Lola and Lilian helped Ella sit up on the bed, and Sven put a pillow behind her back so that she could lean on it.

Ella grimaced in pain as she sat up, then she looked at the girls, who were all trying to keep a straight face. She feigned unhappiness and said "What kind of friends are you? Just laughing when I'm suffering in great pain?"

As she said so, she waved to Sven, who stood beside the bed. "Mommy Ella!" Sven approached and sweetly called her.

"Sven, you're the best." Ella considered Sven as her own child since she watched him grow up.

"Ella, you have became so popular. We were all blocked by the crazy media for a quite a while when we walked in." Lillian picked an apple from the table, intending to peel it for Ella.

"Yeah. We saw the videos and some journalists saying you have 'good relationships' with our husbands. So, here we are, to support you." Lola couldn't help but laugh. She felt lucky to have a clever assistant who knew how to deal with those irritating journalists.

"Holy cow! How can I not be popular with the wives of the CEO of SL Group, the amazing actor Joseph and the director of Chuck Private Hospital as my friends." Seeing Ella ogling at them, the girls soon giggled together.

Suddenly, the door was opened. Ella's smile immediately froze as she saw Samuel walking in.

Wearing a suit, Samuel appeared at the door with his son held in his arms. Catherine stood beside them, soon to be the hostess of the Shao family.

Smiling, Catherine looked at the woman lying in the bed. She was extremely pleased because of what Samuel had said in front of the media.

Especially when Samuel accompanied her and Jerry to the hospital in front of the media, she felt such great joy.

"Mom." Jerry jumped out of Samuel's arms and rushed towards Ella as soon as he saw her.

The icy atmosphere in the ward was broken by Jerry's sweet voice. Ella held her son and kissed him again and again, while bearing the pain he is unknowingly inflicting on her.

"Samuel, you brought her here on purpose, right?" Lola wanted to throw Catherine out of the room when she saw her.

Being a scheming woman, Catherine had successfully stamped on Ella and stood by Samuel's side.

Samuel took a few steps forward with a faint smile on his face, which made it difficult for the others to perceive his emotions, "Mrs. Si, I must have misunderstood. I'm just responding to the appeal of the over-zealous netizens and trying to avoid unnecessary misunderstandings. So I brought my fiancee. Is there anything wrong with that?"

It actually sounded reasonable because Samuel and Ella used to be married.

There was a necessity to avoid misunderstandings.

Taking a glance at the women in the room, including the one who was lovingly looking at her son, Samuel gave his compliment to Ella again in his heart.

'Lola, Daisy, Lillian, Ellie, Yang, They were all her friends. She truly was extremely popular'.

"There's no journalist out there now. Will Mr. Shao do me a favor and ask this woman to leave? Because my body aches as long as she's here." Ella said, while pinching her son's nose.

'So he appeared just to respond to the media and netizens. How ironic.' She thought to herself.

Catherine was embarrassed, but she was an astute woman, "Sam, I could just wait outside. So you don't have to be embarrassed by her."

'So you don't have to be embarrassed by her?' Upon hearing those words, the girls couldn't help but shift their gazes to Catherine.

'What a scheming woman.' They all thought, almost as if they had a telepathic connection.

Ignoring their gazes, Catherine said to Ella with a smile on her face, "Ella, have a good rest. I should leave then."

"Hurry up then, and take your fiance." Ella didn't want to reply to her concern unctuously, so she said what she felt.

Lillian split the peeled apple through the middle and gave it to the kids.

After taking a glance at Samuel, Catherine then looked at the unchanged face of Ella and suddenly realized something.

Catherine's smile became rigid as she walked out.

Outside the Ward, Catherine took out her phone and texted a number, then she sat on the bench with a triumphant smile on her face.

In the ward.

Daisy said to Lola and Lilian as she held the two kids' hands, "We should go upstairs and come down a while later."

The others understood instantly and walked out with her.

The others walked out leaving Samuel behind. Ella painfully removed the pillow from behind her back.

"I'm not dead yet. Mr. Shao you can leave now." She slipped into the quilt, covering her head with it.

Samuel walked towards her as the emotion expressed on his face changed. He looked down at her and said, "Calling you an idiot is actually a compliment! I never thought that you are stupid enough to fall off a cliff when filming."

The man's face looked extremely gloomy, yet if one took a closer look, there were feelings of worry and love underneath the gloom.

Stupid? Fury began to fill her heart. 'How can he blame me when it was the frayed wire that snapped?' Ella became angry. "Yeah. If I am that stupid, I never would have fallen in love with you."

Ella had an inkling that it wasn't an accident and the wire had been tampered with.

However, she intended to carry out an investigation by herself.

She had stopped looking for clues about the man who violated her, because he had disappeared, so she was determined to get to the bottom of this particular situation this time.

As their eyes connected, sparks of fury erupted.

"Ella, why you are being such an ingrate?" Retreating his right hand from his pocket, he held Ella's scratched jaw.

Samuel had said the word "ingrate" to Ella a million times. Indeed, this woman was an ingrate!

"Ah!" The pain made her eyes close. At that moment, Ella realized that Samuel is cruel. How was this different from rubbing salt directly in her wounds?
