Trapped with a Lawyer novel Chapter 183

The salary that Harry offered Ella was tempting, several times higher than the one the American company was paying her. The payment of filming wasn't included in it.

Ella, of course, didn't have a clue of what was going on behind the scenes.

"Okay, I will think about it. My contract expires in a month." She still had a long way to go. It was too early for her to think about the offer.

On the other side of the phone, Lola played with the golden button on the shirt that Harry was wearing, "Ella, come back. We all miss you so much." She did her best to persuade Ella. But it was ultimately up to Ella.

"I miss you too. Thank you, Lola. Please give my thanks to Harry too." Lola's words warmed her heart. During her stay in America, she had hardly made any friends, so, these words made her taste the happiness of friendship once again.

"Don't mention it. Do think about it. We are waiting for you. When you come back, we'll have a good get-together." Again, Lola's words touched her.

After hanging up the phone, Ella went to her villa to see Jane, then hurried back to the apartment as usual.

Samuel was making dinner when she arrived. She was famished, and couldn't wait to taste all the different dishes that Samuel had made for her.

At night, after taking a shower, she lay in the bed and read through her Weibo timeline. The pictures of her and Samuel still floated around on the internet, and still garnered a lot of attention.

Many fans asked her on her Weibo if she and Samuel were together again. Ella was shocked by this question and did not know how to reply to it.

Deep in thought, the door of the bedroom was open and Samuel emerged, after he finalized on a phone call.

Seeing Ella playing with her phone, he took it away and switched off the bedside lamp. Then, he lay down and held her in his arms.

Ella's heart danced with happiness with his hugging. Her mood had been the same, since she started staying with him recently.

Darkness enveloped them as Samuel kissed her, passionately, the heat between them rising. Ella also returned the kiss.

"Ella." Samuel whispered beside her ear.

"Hm?" Her breath had quickened, with his skilled kissing and touching, and did not know what he was going to say.

Samuel stopped what he was doing, "I'm flying out tomorrow."

Her stomach knotted at the unexpected news. She actually felt upset about the fact that he was leaving.

Finally she responded with an "Okay" after a long time.

Soon after, the room was engulfed with their passionate moans, as they both secretly feared it would be their last for some time.

Ella did not see Samuel leaving the next day. She stayed at the film studio and looked up at the tiny planes in the sky, wondering which one he was on.

She wasn't in the mood for working that day, which affected the shots they had filmed. They didn't meet the director's vision, so he put off schedules until the next day.

That night, Ella hurried to her villa. Jane was playing with the babysitter's daughter happily when she walked in.

When Jane saw Ella, she ran to her mother in excitement, "Mom, I've missed you so much."

Cuddling Jane in her arms, she felt much better.

It was bedtime. Ella put Jane to sleep, then she also lay in bed. Sleepless and bored, she checked her Weibo and skimmed through Samuel's posts, from beginning to the end.

She knew that with Samuel gone, she was unlikely to get any information on him for a long time.

She dared not go back to the apartment either. No matter how late she worked, she would go to the villa and cuddle her daughter to sleep.

Samuel's scent was everywhere in the apartment, as well as their sweet memories. Ella couldn't bear it.

Samuel was busy with his cases back at C Country, and hardly had time to eat. But he would occasionally take a couple of seconds to ogle at her images on the internet, after each case without fail.

'She is so beautiful.'

Every time he looked at her photos, these words came to his mind.

Time flew. It had been a month since Samuel had left and Ella had led a peaceful life since. She could hardly get any information about him except seeing him on the news once in a while.
