Emma knew what Ella was referring to. It was Viola's input that made the cooperation with Samuel's firm possible. That man really had a cold heart. He had been seeing her for so many years and now he acted as if they were just like strangers.
It was all caused by this woman who was now standing right in front of her. She was Samuel's so-called 'wife'...
"Ms. Bo, I just want to ask you one simple question. How did you get pregnant with Samuel's child back then?" When Samuel and Ella were not married, Emma was certain that Samuel was still in love with her.
She knew Samuel was a decent man. It was not possible for him to cheat on her.
But then, Ella just claimed that she was pregnant with Samuel's child. This raised her doubts as to what kind of tricks Ella had used.
Ella heard Emma's words and her face went pale.
This was supposed to be a secret. If anyone found out the truth, she would face horrible consequences.
"This is a private matter between me and my husband. It is none of your business. Ms. Gu, you should just mind your own business." With these words, Ella walked passed her and headed directly to the elevator.
When she was out of Emma's sight, Ella immediately got cold feet.
Emma's question haunted her. Ella prayed that her secret could remain secret forever.
Of course Emma was smart enough to notice Ella's reaction. Her face did go pale.
Something was not right. She felt urgency to investigate the situation.
"Ella, complete this file and hand it over to me in half an hour!" Catherine had just left her office, and stopped Ella before she could reach her desk.
Ella accepted the paper from her hand and nodded silently.
She was quite used to such situations now. Catherine's tricks were not that hard to put up with.
Ella was not stupid either. If she found something was out of her capabilities, she always turned to her husband for help. Samuel could fix anything for her. This made her extremely grateful and relieved.
Right now, Ella sat in her chair and stared at the file. She frowned her eyebrows as the file seemed quite difficult for her.
She never did any similar files before and Catherine had never bothered to find someone to teach her.
Only half an hour's time... She had to sneak out and seek help from Samuel.
Floor 68
Ella greeted Anna on her way and knocked on Samuel's office door.
She heard Samuel's reply and opened the door.
Inside the office, there was a man in white suit sitting on the couch. Ella was delighted to see him.
"Brother!" Ella was very happy to see Eason here. Her eyes were full of joy and she briskly flew towards him like a butterfly.
Eason was about to go see her downstairs just now. He stood up, opened his arms and embraced her warmly.
The two had not seen each other for half a year. They hugged each other with great joy and excitement.
Samuel looked at them and was not very pleased. He walked over and pulled Ella out of Eason's arms.
"Hey, greeting is enough, no need for hugs." Samuel stared at Eason with dissatisfaction. Even Eason could not hug his wife.
Ella was quite confused on hearing Samuel's words.
