Trapped with a Lawyer novel Chapter 160

After he got what he wanted, he let go of her.

He smoothed down his clothes and walked out of the private room. Then, Ella followed.

When Samuel returned to the room where the party was held, he saw Viola happily chatting with Catherine, and Melody and Vincent were taking care of Jerry, who was playing with toys.

When Melody noticed her grandson walking back alone, she was anxious. She asked,"Where is Ella?"

Samuel walked several steps towards them. Then, Ella showed up with her head bowed down.

She took a deep breath and smiled, pretending that nothing had happened. She walked straight to Jerry.

"Grandma, I will go with Jerry first. When you get some free time in the afternoon, I will pick you up." 'When a woman feels embarrassed in front of everyone, there is something fishy going on.' Melody thought.

Melody stood there, staring at Ella's face, not listening to what Ella was saying.

Ella's lipstick faded. Melody remembered Ella had a touch-up of lipstick after the meal.

There was also a flush of red spread across Ella's face. 'What did Ella have to be embarrassed about?'

Then Melody observed a faint imprint on Ella's neck...

Finally, Melody gave up and stopped thinking about the whole situation. She was probably overthinking it. "Ella, what did you say?" Melody asked, smiling broadly.

"Eh……" Ella raised her head, looked at Melody, who was delightfully smiling, and repeated what she had just said.

"Well, you go first. Samuel, please walk Ella and Jerry out."

The old lady's instructions made Catherine clench her fists tightly. No one in the family had been good to her except Viola.

Viola said in a voice full of sarcasm: "Mom, Samuel's fiancee is here. How can he walk her out?"

Since Emma had appeared with Drake for the occasion, Viola knew that Emma and Samuel could not get back together again. She, now, put her bet on Catherine.

Viola had witnessed Samuel and Ella go their separate ways and she did not want them back together again.

The moment Samuel started to act on Melody's order, Ella urgently said,"Grandma, do not bother. I will take Jerry. Grandma, Mr. and Mrs. Shao, goodbye."

Ella took Jerry and left the hotel.

Mr. and Mrs. Shao? Samuel gazed as Ella walked away, whose words had upset him badly. Samuel bade his grandmother goodbye and walked out, Catherine following him close behind.

Catherine entered Samuel's Maserati, and sat in the back seat as usual.

This was because, Samuel forbade any woman from sitting in the passenger seat.

After starting the car, Samuel leaned back. "Whatever the occasion, you are not allowed to argue about the child with her, understood!" Then, he turned to the front and drove off fast.

Catherine started sobbing. "Sam, do I mean anything to you?" 'Not even if you were the last woman on earth, ' Samuel's thoughts remained unvoiced.

"Is it not crystal clear to you?" When Samuel pulled over after driving a few kilometers, Catherine knew her destiny.

Catherine opened the door and got out of the car. She watched Samuel speed off. She went home by taxi.

'Ella, I can not wait to see you die, Only if you are dead, I could become his woman. Fair and square, ' she thought.

She took out her phone to text, but suddenly changed her mind.

She remembered what Amber had told her. A new strategy crossed her mind.

As Samuel continued driving, he remembered something important. He whipped out his phone to send a WeChat message to Ella. He waited until he got to a red light and then wrote the message. It read 'I will end your entertainment career if you take pictures with virtually no clothes on, got it!'

...

Meanwhile, Ella had looked for the pictures on the Internet for some time, but failed to see them. She was just about to call Lola when she received Samuel's message. A coincidence, most definitely.
