Trapped with a Lawyer novel Chapter 152

Samuel looked back at the mischievous woman and found that she had buried herself in the quilt again.

He uncovered the quilt through a gap Ella had left unconsciously. "God! Get off me! Go away!" Ella tittered and screamed.

Samuel held Ella in his arms and kissed her again.

A faint taste of blood spread across their mouths.

"Ew..." The strange voice that she made, made Samuel's face turn black with anger. He released her instantly.

Ella did that deliberately. She snickered, licked her lips and feigned enjoyment of the remaining taste of blood.

"Damn! Must you be so spoilt? Being kissed by me is an honor you know?" Samuel stared at the snickering woman in contempt. How ungrateful she was!

Her honor?

All Ella wanted to do was to laugh loudly. If she weren't in the hospital, she would have done so.

"Samuel, why didn't I notice all your arrogance and self-love before?" It must because he disguised himself in such a perfect way, which bewitched her.

Wearing a suit, the man leaned against the head of the bed, a faint smile lingering at the corner of his mouth.

What could he do? He was happy at the sight of Ella, especially seeing that she was getting angry because of his teasing.

"There are lots of things you still don't know." For example, only he knew whether their divorce was valid or not.

Ex-husband and ex-wife? Interesting. He would like to continue playing this game with her.

He would earn her compliance and then correct the wrong perceptions and ideas that she had in her mind.

He wasn't worried about Catherine, since she knew clearly what was going on between them.

Ella was too tired to quarrel with him. She fell asleep quickly with her head tilting and breathing evenly.

The men tilted her head onto his chest, lay in bed and stared at the sleeping woman.

Four years had gone by, but there was no sign of time on her face. She was just slightly more mature than before.

However, Samuel was quite upset when he thought about she still hated him because of forcing her to have an abortion.

He thought that perhaps, he wouldn't have lost her if the child had not been aborted.

Now he was more than thirty years old. In fact, when he thought about it carefully, he should never have turned her down if she insisted on giving birth to the child.

After all, she was a mother. He should not have forced her to kill her own child.

Putting his strong hands on Ella's wounded face, Samuel stared at her, with a mixture emotions, love and pity, filling his heart.

'Ella, you abandoned me and your son for four years. Did you regret it?

Except for Jerry, did you miss me?' His questions remained unvoiced.

...

The next day, Ella woke up and found that it was late in the morning. The breakfast had been put beside the microwave by the nurse.

Samuel had disappeared. Ella would have thought that last night was a dream if it wasn't for the faint smell of the cologne that Samuel liked to wear, lingering in the air.

Soon after, the door was open. Melody and Jerry came in.

"Mommy!" Jerry was happy to see his mom and ran to Ella immediately.

She hugged Jerry, relieved, and greeted Melody. "Grandma, you shouldn't have come here. I'm okay, really."

Melody had brought soup which Mrs. Qi had made early in the morning, and proceeded to place it on the desk.

"How could I stop worrying about you without seeing you myself?" She walked towards Ella, distressed at the sight of the wounds on her face.

"I'm much better now." Ella smiled at Melody. The medicine prescribed by Chuck was quite effective. The wounds were less painful when she woke up this morning.

Melody nodded and noticed Ella closing her eyes in pain, when she got out of the bed.

"What's wrong? You should rest in the bed!"

"Don't worry. The wounds were pulled on by accident. Sit here for a while, grandma, I'll go and wash myself."

There were new toiletries in the bathroom. Ella went in and came out after a brief wash.

Melody had spooned the soup into a bowl and put the breakfast in the microwave.

Jerry walked to embrace Ella just before the door opened.

It was Eden. He was puzzled for a little while when he saw Melody and Jerry.

He hadn't met Melody before. Melody didn't show up the last time he sent Jerry here, so Eden didn't know her.

Ella introduced them to each other respectively. "Grandma, this is my agent and assistant, Eden. Eden, this is my grandma."

"Ah, nice to meet you grandma!" Eden smiled and greeted Melody immediately. He knew instantly that the old lady was Samuel's grandma.

Melody smiled and nodded when she looked at Eden, up and down, subtly.

Having had a conversation with Jerry, Eden fetched the breakfast from the microwave voluntarily.

After a simple breakfast, Ella was told by Eden that people in her film crew would visit her later.

Knowing Ella would be busy then, Melody was considerable enough to leave the hospital with Jerry.

They arrived at about nine o'clock. Ella was surprised that Eric came too.

Since the director came, all actors, no matter whether they were leading actors or the supporting actors, all came, Including the hero Joseph and the heroin Amber.

"Ella, have a good rest and don't worry about filming. We'll shoot your scenes when you have recovered." After the accident, Eric finally knew that Ella and Samuel used to be married.

Eric also understood the reason why Samuel invested in his play and when Samuel called him and asked leave on behalf of Ella on that day.

He invested in his play for no one else but Ella.

"Okay. Thank you, director." Ella replied politely.

Amber was quite silent and kept glancing at Ella in a weird way.

She said nothing when other people sympathized with Ella until she left with others.

Ella didn't care about that. After they left, she fiddled with the flowers brought by her workmates.

Samuel's Law Office.

Two little figures walked into Samuel's firm hand in hand.

After making sure that the two kids had came in safely, Daisy went in the car with Sven and waited for them.

People in Samuel's firm all knew Jerry. Therefore, the receptionist pressed the elevator button for the 68th floor when she saw him.

"Thank you, beautiful lady." Jerry was a honey-lipped little boy and the receptionist was cheered up by him.

She looked at the little girl wearing a mask and hat beside Jerry in puzzlement and then left.

The 68th floor.

Molly walked towards Jerry when she saw him. "Jerry, why do you bring this little girl here alone?"

Jerry stood in front of Jane and said to Molly, "Aunt Yuan, I'd like to see my daddy. Aunt Tang sent me here and she is waiting for me downstairs now."

Ah! Molly understood and knocked on the office's door. Jerry walked into Samuel's office with Jane following behind.

After closing the door, Molly was still wondering who the little girl was. 'Was she Jerry's little girlfriend? Interesting', she thought to herself.
