Trapped with a Lawyer novel Chapter 141

Ella wasn't prepared, so she stumbled in the darkness and had to regain her balance by supporting herself on the column behind her.

"Samuel, what's wrong with you?"

Samuel loosened his tie and walked towards her slowly.

The anger on his face forced Ella to recede back, step by step.

"What's wrong with me? Didn't you leave? Why did you come back? Huh?" Behind her was the hallway wall, so there was no way out.

"You are not the king of this country. I can come back whenever I want. That's none of your business!" Ella tried her best to compose herself, and she was now too nervous to feel tired.

As Samuel approached in the darkness, the atmosphere changed suddenly.

He was right in front her, leaving little space between them. She could even smell the faint aroma of wine from him.

She sneered when his vow flashed through her mind－several years ago, he had promised that he would never drink without her permission.

Yet now, after their divorce, he was freed from such vows and must have lived an unconstrained life. Without her pestering, he must be blissfully happy, Ella thought to herself.

Samuel clung to her and continued to grill her, "I'm asking you! How dare you come back! You left!" He raised his voice gradually in a fit of anger.

"Are you blind or what? Don't you know that I came back only to shoot for the movie? When I finish my work, I will leave. I won't bother you anymore." She was mature enough to quit chasing after him like an idiot.

Samuel, you don't need to worry, because I will not disturb you, she thought.

Samuel saw obstinacy in her eyes, and recalled her tameness, her ingratiation, her naughtiness, her lies and her... He recalled every impression she had left on him before she left, four years ago.

The hatred and the love he had experienced the past four years were all aroused at the moment, so he pinched her face.

Her face was now attractively smooth, since she had removed makeup before she left the studio.

"You are hurting me, Samuel! You are mad! Let me go!"

She struggled to push his hands away and escape from him, but failed.

Even though she wasn't talking, her mouth was open, as if it was waiting for a kiss.

Seeing this, Samuel kissed her, taking in her scent and taste.

Ella clutched his clothes and braced herself. She could do nothing.

At this moment, she knew it would be foolish to irritate him again, as it would only make him more aggressive and violent.

He put his hands around her waist. This action calmed her down. Ella turned her face around to catch her breath back, and said, "Samuel, don't forget your fiancée. What you are doing and going to do will humiliate nobody but her!"

Catherine's face ran through Samuel's mind, and he sneered.

"That's none of your business, Ella. What I want you to do is be my woman!" Both he and Ella knew what he meant by saying those two words "my woman", Samuel wasn't asking her to be his wife or girlfriend, but his mistress.

This infuriated Ella. She slapped his hands away and freed herself from his control. While she headed towards the door, she said, "Mr. Shao. If you want this to happen, you'd better go to sleep and try to realize it in a dream!"

"I dare you to leave this room, you will become headline news by tomorrow morning."

...

Hearing this explicit threat, Ella clenched her fists tightly.

Yet she smiled, all of a sudden.

She turned around and walked back to Samuel.

Enchantingly, she put her arm around his neck and took his mobile phone out of his pocket with the other hand.

She inputted Emma's birthday and unlocked his phone easily. She didn't know how many mobile phones Samuel had used during the past four years, but obviously, he had used the same password and had never changed it.

This fact hurt Ella deeply. He hadn't forgotten about her yet, she thought.
