Trapped with a Lawyer novel Chapter 48

As she stood up, Emma overheard Ella Bo asking Samuel :''Did you hear what I spoke to Lola last evening?" She did not know what she had said yesterday until she asked Lola again.

Recalling what she "backbit" on him yesterday, Samuel nodded with smile.

Ella Bo flushed and felt a little more at ease. However, she felt glad that she didn't have to hide some of her feelings anymore.

She stood up from the couch, walked straight to Emma, pointed at Emma's nose tip and said to her: "Stop playing innocent. Haven't you recognized your position yet?"

What she said did not make Emma feel any more pain. But the big diamond ring put on Ella Bo's finger was, indeed, a pain in her eyes.

At the first sight of the ring, which was a gift from Samuel to Ella, Emma could not restrain her tears any longer.

She did not mean to cry this time.

"Why are you crying? Did I bully you?" Ella Bo looked domineering right then. It seemed that, indeed, she was bullying Emma.

On seeing this, Anna discreetly left the office.

And Samuel eyed Ella Bo, half angry and half laughing. He sighed and stood up. "Enough, it's only lunch and, after all, why bother so much with this?"

Both ladies did not know to whom he talked to. But, in their eyes, he was talking to himself.

"Samuel, it's true, I am your ex. But how can you allow her to humiliate me like this?" Emma took a tissue out of her bag and wiped out her tears. Her eyes were red.

Humiliate her? Ella Bo sneered. Who the hell was Emma? The director in the head office of the Changyue International Magazine Company!

Ella Bo had made her inquires on Emma. Emma was an iron woman at work and was also particularly strong in her character.

How could Ella Bo manage to humiliate an iron woman like her?

Emma was now just playing weak and innocent in front of Samuel. And by now, Ella wanted to scratch out her crying face.

"Are you saying that I am making a fuss out of nothing?" Ella Bo was now so angry that she even glowered at Samuel.

Emma looked at Ella, and suddenly a thought came flying into her mind. She brewed and stirred her emotion for a while, and sobbed while speaking: "We were lovers way before he ever meet you. If it were not for the fact that grandma objected to us being together, you would never get the ghost of a chance to be with him in your lifetime." Besides, Samuel always keeps his nose clean. How on Earth did you manage to get pregnant with him?"

This question was well-thought, and it was to be asked only when Samuel was around to hear it. She did not know how Ella Bo had explained it to Samuel. But she had already made investigations on this matter and the truth was starting to take shape and surface.

Ella Bo's confidence was destroyed by Emma's last question in an instant, and she even began starting to tremble a bit.

Samuel looked down, thinking, pondering on what he just heard. On the night of Harry's wedding, he was taken to the hotel by his driver.

How did Ella Bo appear in his room that night? He had asked her about it in later times and she had replied that it was all a mere coincidence. They met in the hotel corridor that night and she was dragged by him into his room.

He was really drunk at that time. And he bought her story altogether.

He had never thought about it again since then. But thus happened already, and it was no use thinking about it anymore.

"We don't need to explain this aspect to you." Ella Bo tried to stop her trembling. She looked away and could barely make eye contact with Emma.

Samuel massaged the sport between his eyebrows and shouted: "Enough! Emma, stop looking for trouble. The past is past. Let it go."

He was too busy working his legal matters to have the time to think of affairs like this.

Looking for trouble? Emma was bitterly disappointed. The man she had once known changed so fast.
