Cosset You Forever novel Chapter 505

"You are welcome, madam. If you don't need me, I will return to my work." Anna had a good impression of Ella as she did not put on air and was very casual. She gave Ella a kind smile and left Floor 23.

When she went back to Floor 68, she hesitated for a moment. In the end, she decided not to mention the incident to Samuel. Because the topic the staff of Floor 23 had been gossiping about was a private issue between the two, she was in no position to judge.

Now she only hoped that Ella could stand up for herself whenever she got bullied, instead of bottling up her feelings.

That evening, Samuel finished work early and he went back to the Shao villa with Ella. Ella was greeted by the happy Jerry whose big smile melted her heart instantly.

"My dearest baby, mommy misses you so much!" Samuel was touched by the scene of them greeting each other. He was in a good mood too.

Melody noticed that there was something growing between the two. She looked at them and was very pleased with such progress.

Vincent and Viola returned at dinner time. As Jerry was staying at the Shao's villa these days, the old couple always returned here whenever they were finished with work.

During dinner time, the family was chatting and laughing. The ambiance in the dining room was quite relaxing and harmonious.

However, a sudden call from Viola's phone broke the harmony.

She stared at the phone and checked the caller's name. Then she answered the phone without any concern, "Hello, Em."

Samuel heard the nickname and frowned his eyebrows. Ella did not know who Viola was referring to, and was still concentrating on her meal.

"Oh, sure, does Samuel know about this?" Viola seemed very pleased.

Then she gave Samuel a stern look and said to the phone, "What? He blocked your number? I will tell him off."

These words finally drew the attention of Ella, she looked at Viola curiously. She looked so joyful. Her mother-in-law never showed such a joyful expression in front of her before.

Ella looked at Samuel and noticed that his face was quite gloomy and apparently he was eating food at a much slower pace.

Em? What does she mean by Em? Is it Emma? Ella instantly felt sad when she realized that cruel fact.

Melody knew who Viola was talking to and when she heard that Samuel blocked Emma's number, she was secretly applauding and cheering.

Then Viola spoke again, "Really? Your firm wants to cooperate with Samuel's firm? That's so wonderful!"

Viola was the only person who was cheerful at the dining table. The rest were not so pleased. Samuel looked at Ella who was dining quietly, then he put down his chopsticks heavily onto the table.

Everyone was quiet. The awkward atmosphere now seemed even more awkward.

Viola noticed that her son was upset, so she ended the call in a hurry, "Em, I am in the middle of something at the moment. I will call you back later." The call finally ended. Ella put down her bowl and chopsticks and started rocking her baby's crib.

"Mom, you can forget about it!" "I am now married to Ella, there won't be anything between me and Emma anymore."

Samuel's remarks were bold and direct. It somehow made Ella feel better.

Melody put down her chopsticks and backed Samuel up: "Viola, now that they already have Jerry, everything is settled. You shouldn't behave like this anymore." Melody's voice was calm and she sounded very authoritative.

Vincent also felt that Viola was pushing it too much; but he did not say anything, as Melody and Samuel already made their points clear.

Viola looked at her mother-in-law and then her son, and she felt embarrassed as she did not want to be addressed to like that in front of Ella. She formed a dry smile and said: "It was just a phone call. No big deal."

"Let's eat." Vincent opened his mouth and suggested in a cool voice. The topic was then dropped. However, the harmonious ambiance was long gone.

Ella quickly finished the food in her bowl and wiped her mouth. She stood up and tried to smile, "Granny, mom, dad, I have finished eating. Please excuse me."
