Trapped with a Lawyer novel Chapter 170

Samuel lowered his voice unconsciously. He was trying to pacify her,"Ella, I mean no harm. I just want to remind you that without solid evidence, your words will be nothing but Catherine's weapon against you. She could accuse you easily!"

"Okay, those two cases aside, there is also enough reason for me to revenge on them, as they have framed me so many times before!" Ella wiped her tears away and thought, 'You didn't need to cry. It is a waste to cry for Samuel if he doesn't trust you!'

Samuel thought Ella was just upset, so he replied,"Ella, do you know what you did has already harmed Emma and Catherine? Word has it Catherine is about to commit suicide and Emma... She is suffering more than her sister."

"That's enough, Samuel. You said they are suffering. How about me? Didn't I suffer? When I was framed, you believed not a word I said. I was totally helpless. Have you ever cared? Have you ever experienced what I have experienced?" Ella couldn't tolerate his words any more, for Samuel always thought in Emma's and Catherine's favor, never hers. He had never been on her side.

Ella's unreconciled answer made Samuel pinch his glabella, wondering if she was talking about what had happened four years earlier. Had he really misunderstood her?

But before figuring that out, he must solve the current problem first, so he asked,"Ella, who is using the account named 'Ella'?" It was unlikely to be Ella's account, Samuel thought, because it could be easily associated with Ella. His ex-wife wouldn't have done such a silly thing! Someone might be trying to frame her.

But to Samuel's surprise, Ella admitted,"What's your opinion? Isn't it like my account? Who else could be 'Ella'? Huh?" Her acknowledgement, though somehow satirical, made Samuel crazy.

"Ella, before you make the next move, let me handle it and then you can..."

"Shut up, Samuel! If you ask someone to delete those video clips, I will be your lifetime enemy," interrupted Ella furiously. Then she hung up the phone. She didn't want to see or hear from him ever again.

He didn't trust her at all, the same as four years earlier.

Her tears streamed down her face in torrents.

Meanwhile, Samuel called her again, but she didn't pick up the call. She switched off the phone.

She missed her children, Jane and Jerry.

Thinking about her children, she curled on the sofa, wondering if she shouldn't have returned to C Country jail.

It was a bad idea to meet Samuel and let him do what he wanted. 'Ella, don't you remember how he treated you before!' she asked herself. She seemed to have never learnt her lesson.

During the next few days, Samuel met Harry and Eason. He asked them to send someone to find the person who had kidnapped Ella four years earlier.

He also visited Amber repeatedly in the jail.

However, Amber had been attacked and tortured to near death by an insider and thus had lost consciousness two days earlier. Samuel had no choice but to bail her out after his latest visit.

Amber was then sent to the ICU in Chuck's hospital and protected by several bodyguards.

Scandals about Emma and Catherine spread fast online, because Ella didn't stop her revenge, even after Samuel's warnings.

Half a month later, Catherine couldn't stand netizens' abuse or accusation anymore, so she locked herself away in her house.

She called Samuel from time to time, begging him to stop Ella.

Emma, unfortunately, broke down completely. Felix, not wishing to be affected by her scandal, dismissed her from the company.

He also explained that their relationship was just a deal: he paid for her sexual services and she got money for it.

Drake got mad when he got to know that Emma had been harassed and raped by Felix even after she had become his girlfriend.

Drake flew to America, wanting to take revenge on that bastard.
