Trapped with a Lawyer novel Chapter 34

Ella cuddled his waist tightly and nodded: "Samuel, we will be fine. We need to check on our son now." She was also comforting herself.

"Of course, I won't let anything happen to you." He patted her back softly. Ella started to breathe normally in the darkness after the initial panic.

Soon enough, they heard some noises coming from above. "Someone is coming! Don't worry, we are going to be rescued!" Ella was feeling much better already and yet Samuel was still consoling her. This?touched her deeply to the extent that she felt like crying.

After several beeping sounds, the light went back on. The elevator was bright again.?

Samuel lowered his head and looked at the pale-faced woman within his arms. Her vulnerability struck him and he felt sorry for her.

He wiped away the tears on her face. Just then, the elevator had another sudden move. It started rising up and eventually returned to normal and stopped at Floor 26.

Ella was so scared that her legs felt like they weighed a ton. Samuel lifted her up and carried her out of the elevator.

After what they had gone through tonight, Samuel's priority was to file a lawsuit against the property management. Next on his agenda was to move to a villa.

Floor 26

Outside of the elevator, stood the manager of the apartment building. He hurried to the site via the other elevator the moment he heard about the incident. As soon as he saw Samuel, he apologized to him repeatedly: "Sorry Mr. Shao. Sorry for causing you trouble. It must have been very scary for you" This Mr. Shao?was a famous lawyer, known as the "big gun" within the industry. He must try his best to appease him. If he filed a lawsuit against him, that would be the end of his management career.

'Me, scared?' 'It was not me, but my beloved wife that got scared.'

Samuel paused and responded: "I had to press?the emergency call button a dozen times before someone answered me. I will see you in court!" After saying these words, he ignored the explanation and apology from the manager, and walked straight towards his apartment door. He scanned his fingerprints and then walked into the apartment.

He laid Ella on the big bed of the bedroom and sat down next to her. He brushed her fringe aside and said to her softly: "It's fine now. We are home."

Ella extended her hands out and hugged him around his neck: "Tomorrow we go see our son, OK?" She was actually wondering if she should just stay at home and look after the baby, instead of returning to the job market.

Samuel gently let her rest her head on his shoulder and nodded: "Tomorrow after work, we can go and pick up the baby. We can have him stay with us for a couple of days." If she wanted to return to the firm, she could bring the baby with her. If she didn't want to work at the firm anymore, she might just as well stay at home and look after him. It would be her own decision.

After they reached an agreement, Samuel carried her into the bathroom.

Chuck and Daisy's wedding was held in the end of November. Edward was determined to let everyone know that Daisy was the wife of his grandson.

Therefore, many people attended the wedding that day. Especially well-known doctors within the industry and other less-famous people were also present.

The two newly-wed were not very keen on the occasion, but they showed up anyway as instructed by Edward.

Bride's lounge

Daisy sat in front of the dresser and gazed at her own reflection in the mirror.

She had never seen herself in a white wedding dress before. The one she was wearing right now was custom-tailored but she had never tried it on till now.

It seemed all pure and chaste...

The lounge door was pushed open. Daisy got startled and then she saw Chuck approaching from behind in the mirror. He was wearing a black suit.

She noticed that Chuck had a little bit of appreciation in his eyes when he first saw her. But then she smirked and thought to herself: "Would he even bother to give her any appreciation?"

They remained silent for a moment. Chuck broke the silence first and said: "It is good you are now ready. Don't you even think about running way." The tone of his voice was sharp and hurtful. It shattered the peaceful and beautiful moment she had just now.
