Trapped with a Lawyer novel Chapter 124

Anna thought for a while and decided not to tell Ella what she had overheard in Samuel's office.

"It doesn't matter. Tell me what exactly happened. I am so worried."

"Nothing serious. I just got kidnapped and taken to a hotel. But don't worry I was rescued soon." A thought suddenly came to her mind. Wait! Why me and Sum though? Only a few people knew about my relationship with Sum, Ella thought to herself.

Ella was more and more certain that it was either Catherine and Emma that conspired to kidnap her.

"Emma must have seen me with Sum, so my assumption is very likely to be true." Ella thought some more. It was beginning to make sense.

"Did you get hurt?"

"No. I am unscathed."

Hearing that Ella was fine, Anna was relieved, so she changed the subject.

"I'm going to France in a couple of days." Anna said as she blushed.

Ella squinted at Anna with a smile, "Is it my brother...?"

Anna nodded and explained with pride, "I didn't plan to promise him this. But he threatened to..."

"Oh, really... I didn't expect that my brother would be able to persuade you to go to France. Good for him! By the way, Anna, you'd better have my brother under your control as soon as possible, or he will screw around with other women." Ella said while clasping Anna's arm excitedly.

Ella and Anna were chatting while enjoying the sights outside.

After a while, Ella said with a smirk, "If Catherine goes to Samuel's office in the future, please call me and tell her she needs my permission first." Since she was his wife, Ella thought she had the right to make such a request.

As for Samuel, Ella had decided to give him the silent treatment for a few days.

Anna was on Ella's side so she agreed with Ella without hesitation.

Anna went back to work after exchanging a "goodbye" with Ella.

Seconds after she sat down, her telephone rang. It was Samuel. Anna walked into Samuel's office, "Mr. Shao, how can I help?"

Samuel, who was bending over his work, glanced at Anna, "Please buy me a drink that can sober me up"

"Yes, Mr. Shao."

"what's your smile for?" Noticing Anna's smiling face, Samuel raised his head again and asked.

What Anna said next made Samuel regret that he didn't chase after Ella.

"I was chatting with Ella. She just left." They had quiet a long conversation.

At Anna's words, Samuel displayed a long face. Ella, how dare you!

Samuel's poker face frightened Anna. "Did I say something wrong? Why dose Mr. Shao look angry?" Anna was confused.

"Oh, I see. You can go get me the drink now." Samuel said as he tried to make himself sound as normal as possible.

After work, Samuel sent Catherine to the Chuck Hospital. A doctor checked Catherine's left arm and leg, that Ella had kicked.

Luckily, Catherine had just suffered some skin trauma. Nothing serious. Then a nurse compressed Catherine's cheek with ice.

After sending Catherine home, Samuel drove directly to the Chuck's old house.

Stepping into the living room, Samuel saw Ella was amusing Jerry by dancing. Samuel smirked, he knew Ella would definitely be in the Chuck's old house.

Samuel fed Jerry while chatting with Melody when they had dinner later on, as he usually did.

Later that night, after taking Jerry to sleep, Samuel walked back to his and Ella's bedroom. But he found the bedroom door was locked.

Hearing Samuel knocking the door, Ella, stood behind the door, not wanting to open it.

She wasn't letting Samuel get into the room easily. If I hadn't gone to Samuel's company today, Samuel might have had sex with Catherine. This thought made Ella get upset.

Samuel knew Ella could hear him knocking, "Ella. I will count to three. Either you open the door or I..."
