Trapped with a Lawyer novel Chapter 199

Eason wanted to strangle Samuel there and then, but he had a bigger issue to deal with. He looked at Anna, who displayed a stolid expression. He shook in fear, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. "Don't listen to his nonsense, I had broken up with that woman a long time ago."

Harry and Joseph burst into laughter, unreservedly.

Anna tried to calm down, "Eason, how many women have you been with?" Eason was a playboy before, he changed his girlfriends like clothes. Even after he got married, there were still some women throwing themselves at him.

Eason tried to comfort his wife, "That's the past. Don't get angry. Think of the baby!"

"It's all right. When my wife was pregnant, she used to be mad at Chuck all the time. Anna, interrogate him as much as you like." Harry kissed Lola on her cheek.

Suddenly, Lola pushed Harry away, startling him. Didn't they agree to teach Samuel a lesson?

"Yes, Anna. Keep an eye on him. It's a sensitive time. You'd better watch him closely." It seemed that the men wanted to gang up on Eason. They continued to snipe at him for a while.

"Hey Samuel! Weren't you with Emma, when my sister was pregnant?" Eason saw Ella waking up and decided to take advantage. Samuel wasn't facing Ella, so he didn't realize that she was awake.

Eason threw caution to the wind, and hit back where he knew it would hurt.

"Emma?" Samuel gnashed his teeth in anger. But what he said was true. "I took Ella for granted then. But now, things are going to change. I will be by her side, and love and support her. Her enemies are my enemies now, and they will be dealt with accordingly."

Hearing this, the displeased expression on Ella's face turned to a smile.

Seeing the smile on his sister's face, Eason felt even more resentful. He decided to pester on.

"Samuel, I heard from my nephew that during the four years when Ella was away, you were living with Catherine." Although he knew that his nephew's words couldn't be reliable, Eason still wanted to know how he would react and reply.

Jerry had also told Ella about this, so she was curious to find out the answer.

Samuel didn't know Ella was awake. And he wanted to make fun of Eason. Thus he made up a lie to respond to him, "Yes, that boy knows everything. It's true."

Consequently, tragedy followed.

Eason didn't get angry but laughed. Then Samuel heard murmuring behind him and a chill ran up his spine, "So it's true!"

Damn! Samuel really wanted to slap himself. He had completely undone the efforts that he had put in last night.

Staring at Eason, who was laughing maliciously, Samuel turned.

"It's not the truth, Ella. How can you believe what a wimpy kid said?" He tried to reach out to her.

However, Lola shoved him aside. And both her and Lilian stood beside Ella's bed, on the left and right side respectively.

How dare he call their son a wimpy kid? Ella glared at Samuel. She would deal with him later.

"Ella, how do you feel? Are you still feeling pain?" Lola pressed a button to prop up Ella's upper half body.

Ella looked at the two people beside her, as Anna walked over to them. She shook her head, "I'm fine, aside from the wound which is still aching."

Everybody knew that it was Emma who had hurt Ella. That was the reason why these women had planned and ordered their husbands to punish Samuel. If Emma didn't want Samuel, why would she hurt Ella?

As she sat up, the stitches on her wound stretched a little.
