His words made her nod like a bird pecking rice.
Stopping, the man put her down.
Ella immediately ran towards the house. After running for over ten meters, Ella shouted, "Samuel, you bastard! You're a bully!" After that, she turned around and ran.
Samuel looked at Ella running in a panic with satisfaction.
Bastard! She had called him a bastard numerous times. He would teach her a lesson later tonight!
Slamming the door of the living room heavily, Ella gasped for breath. Half a minute later, the quiet atmosphere in the living room made her uncomfortable.
Turning around slowly, Ella found Vincent and Melody looking at her in astonishment. Uh... She forgot they were in the living room. Ella smiled at them awkwardly and said, "I'm going to wash my hands." Looking like a child caught red-handed, Ella went into the washing area in dejection.
After Ella washed her hands, Samuel calmly entered the living room.
Sitting next to her son, Ella ducked her head and ate the rice in her bowl, her thoughts elsewhere.
After a while, a piece of stewed meat was put into her bowl, snapping her out of her thoughts.
Knowing who put the meat in her bowl, Ella smiled at her grandmother sitting on the opposite side, "Thank you, grandma."
Melody was about to say something, when Samuel opened his mouth, "I'm not your grandma."
...
Ella wanted to throw the rice onto Samuel's face. He must be annoying her on purpose! Although she started it first...
"I thought grandma put the meat into my bowl. You're so mean! You're a bully!" She looked at Samuel piteously, hoping to get people on her side.
Ella looked so pitiful. She must be bullied by Samuel all the time. Melody put down the chopsticks and said seriously, "Samuel, as a man, you should yield to your wife."
Vincent also frowned at Samuel, "You are way out of line. Ella is your wife. You should be nice to her!"
Samuel glanced at Ella, who covered her laughter by eating rice.
Instead of responding to Melody and Vincent, Samuel whispered something in Ella's ear, making her lower her head.
Watching her face turn red, Samuel smiled in satisfaction. He put some vegetables into her bowl in triumph.
Picking up on the meaningful atmosphere between the young couple, Melody and Vincent said nothing and kept eating.
After dinner, Ella planned to take her son out in a stroller. Her left hand was hurt, which made it difficult for her to push the stroller. But she was too proud to ask for Samuel's help.
She turned to Melody, "Grandma, let's go out with Jerry!"
Samuel stayed on the couch and continued watching the legal drama, as if he hadn't heard Ella.
Melody kicked Samuel in the shins, "Go out with your wife and son." Samuel did not respond.
Ella suddenly got an idea. She subtly turned on the music app on her phone.
Hearing Ella's ringtone, Samuel frowned and wondered how shameless Sum was.
