Trapped with a Lawyer novel Chapter 159

Overall, Melody had a great birthday party in a good atmosphere surrounded by great company.

When the feast was over, Vincent and Viola saw guests out. Samuel, lying in a chair indolently, secretly watched Ella playing with their son.

Noticing that most of the guests had left, Ella carried her son and walked towards the door without uttering a word to Samuel.

"Wait!"

Samuel's voice made Drake, Emma and Ella, who were at the door, stand still at once.

Drake and Emma glanced at Ella and knew it was her he was addressing.

So they proceeded outside. Ella followed them even though she knew that Samuel had asked her to stop.

Melody came in from outside and saw Jerry in Ella's embrace,"Ella, are you going with Jerry?"

"Yes, grandma. I have taken a day off and want to take Jerry on a day trip."

Ella had asked for leave for Melody's birthday party the day before.

Ella whispered in Melody's ear and Melody smiled.

"Okay. Have fun with Jerry."

Hearing this, Ella prepared to leave with Jerry.

"Grandma, Jerry is also my son. Ella, you have not asked for my permission."

Samuel said, standing up from the chair and closing the door.

He stood against the door, his arms folded. He looked at his grandma and his son, avoiding eye contact with Ella, who's expression was one of annoyance.

Melody's face grew grimmer and she criticized Samuel,"Don't be so mean. Ella is Jerry's mother. Behave like an adult."

He stood motionless as if those words were not addressed to him,"Ella, you can go anywhere you want but Jerry will stay here."

Ella didn't understand why Samuel made things difficult for her. The night before, he was cuddling and kissing her but now he was ruthless. She wondered whether he had bi-polar or something.

"Samuel, what do you mean?"

Ella shot him a side glance.

Samuel took Jerry from her arms and gave him to Melody. Then he opened the door and dragged her out of the room.

He took her into an empty private room.

Catherine saw Samuel and Ella leaving. She wanted to follow them but Melody stopped her.

In the private room.

Though it was daytime, there were no lights inside the private room however streams of light filtered through the shutters.

"You have changed a lot. You make me sick."

Ella said ironically after fixing herself.

He always did strange things to her. It was said that a woman's heart is a deep ocean of secrets. But in this case, the tables were turned. His was the deepest ocean of secrets.

He made her sick.

Samuel sneered while he blocked the door with his body. She really drove him crazy.

"Come here."

He commanded her, with a sleazy tone in his voice.

"No! I won't". She curled her lips.

"Why should I listen to you!"

...

Samuel looked down at the floor helplessly.

"Do you want me to come to you?"

There was a slight threat in his tone though he said it indifferently.

If he went to her, he may do something terrible, she thought.

So she bit her lower lip, moved nearer and gave him a withering look,"What do you want from me now?"

A thought struck her. Was he angry that she wanted to take Jerry away?

That was impossible. He knew that Jerry and her kept in touch with each other.

Deep in thought, she didn't notice Samuel pulling her into his arms by force.

He hugged her tightly and kissed her. He was eager for this moment, the first time he saw her walking into the room at Melody's party.
