Ella put the goblet aside and used knife and fork adeptly to eat a little piece of steak.
The steak was delicious with a strong taste of pepper.
"This is the first time we are having a dinner like this since we dated. I hope this is also the last time." It did sound sarcastic. Even though they had been married for a long time, this should be the first time they had an enjoyable dinner like this.
Shocked by Ella's indifference, Samuel stopped eating and stared at her.
Samuel was confused by her attitude. From an obedient little girl to a vivacious girl and now to an elegant woman.
So, which one is the real Ella?
"Yeah, it's the first time..." "That's true." "But it will not be the last time." He had said he was the commander of the "Love Game". He was the only one to start or stop it.
Ella didn't speak anymore but downed another round of wine.
In fact, it was not bad to have dinner with Samuel. At least she could drink as much as she wanted. It's unnecessary to worry about the consequences after getting drunk.
However, if he stuck to it, she would keep playing with him. "All right, then please excuse me if I fight against the enemies in the 'Game'."
Her intent was clear and Samuel also understood the meaning. Eating up the pizza, he said "Doesn't annoy me, Ella."
"Well, you are not angry even if I refuse to go back with you. But you get vexed as soon as I hurt your sweetheart. Are you showing off?" Although she was deliberately looking for trouble, she still felt upset when Samuel tried to protect Emma.
Ella was too depressed to enjoy the delicacies.
"Whatever you say." Now that it is clear that she didn't understand him, it made no sense to explain too much.
As long as she went back with him, he would manage other matters.
After a brief pause, Ella said "Yes, my opinion means nothing. Yours is of importance."
Faced with all her challenges, Samuel was thinking about taking her home and giving some punishment after the dinner.
Unfortunately, although a little drunk, Ella was still maintaining a level head.
She settled the bill, while leaving the table on the pretext of using the toilet. The bill amounted to 300 thousand yuan. Ella felt heartbroken and left the restaurant without Samuel.
She got into a taxi and left. Samuel, who was still waiting for her to come back from the toilet, had a glimpse of her getting into the taxi through the window.
He was really furious with her actions.
Samuel ran downstairs rapidly to settle the bill. The cashier told him that the bill was settled already.
Disappointed, he got into his car and followed the gradually vanishing taxi.
Luckily, there were not many cars in that direction. He found the taxi immediately.
Soon, the taxi reached her apartment and she got down. She tottered towards the elevator. Samuel too reached the spot and he rushed towards the apartment, as he heard Ella's scream.
She was already in the elevator going to the ninth floor. He took the other elevator.
Samuel became anxious as he heard another scream from the elevator.
The scene outside the elevator at the ninth floor gave him a complete surprise.
A woman was beating a man with a red coat on the floor.
The man was protecting his head with his hands and repeatedly saying "Sorry".
