Cosset You Forever novel Chapter 504

"Help yourself." Samuel gave the chopsticks to Ella and walked towards the door.

"Aren't you going to eat anything?" Ella asked him curiously. Four dishes and one soup were on the table and they seemed untouched. He probably hadn't eaten anything yet!

Samuel put both hands in his suit pockets and smiled at her, "You eat first. I still have some work to finish. Once I'm done, I will come back."

"I will wait for you then."

"No need. You eat now." He said no more and walked out of the lounge.

Ella put a little bit of each dish onto her plate and started to eat slowly.

Halfway through her meal, her cellphone started ringing. She put down her chopsticks and looked around for her phone.

Her phone was on the bedside table not faraway. She took it over, only to see a strange number.

"Hello." She sat back onto the sofa.

Then she heard Catherine's cold voice: "It's the office hour now. Where are you?" Catherine looked at the empty seat in the corner and was really upset.

Ella looked at her meal and then checked the time. The lunch break had been over for more than half an hour.

"I will be right back." She didn't want to talk too much to Catherine. She hung up the phone and began devouring her food.

When Samuel walked in, Ella was pacing restlessly up and down. "What's the matter?" He looked at her with confusion and wondered what she was looking for.

Ella's face was reddish and she patted on her own chest and said: "I ate too fast, I need water..." It was all Catherine's fault. She urged her to go back to work and she ate so fast that she got choked up.

Samuel walked towards a cabinet and opened it. Inside, there was a wide selection of bottles of mineral water, neatly organized.

He took out a bottle, screwed it open and handed it to her. Ella took a sip. Samuel patted her lightly on the back and asked: "How can you be so careless?"

A big girl like her shouldn't choke on food anymore.

Ella took several sips of water and finally felt better. "Oh, I am just running later for work." Otherwise she would not worry at all.

Samuel shook his head and explained to her: "You are 'Mrs. Boss' of this firm. You can come and leave at will." In other words, there is no such thing as running late for work.

Mrs. Boss? This title made Ella extremely delighted.

Samuel looked at her and was amused at the goofy way she held onto the water bottle. He laughed: "So, are you not in a hurry anymore?"

Ella realized what she was doing upon his reminder. She shoved the water bottle into Samuel's arms and stormed out the door: "Bye Samuel!"

"Samuel..." The words were never this delightful.

However, he should still correct the way she addressed him. After all, "Samuel" was too formal and maybe "darling" sounded sweeter.

Ella went back to floor 23 and walked quickly towards her desk.

After learning basic knowledge about the law this morning, she had a vague idea how to start the business plan.

However, on her way to her seat, she overheard some whispered gossip.

"She dares to come and go at her whim just because she claims to have the title of Mrs. Boss. Hasn't she forgotten that she used to be a mere mistress?"
