Trapped with a Lawyer novel Chapter 64

The Moon Company

Sum went through his email while he had a meeting in the office.

An E-mail from Samuel got his attention.

The content was quite simple and pretty straight-forward: "If you ever dare to meet Ella again, I will prosecute you with charges of sexual harassment or threatening.

Sum paused for a while and fell into a deep contemplation.

Ella was bored in the villa. While she was sleeping, a knock on the door suddenly woke her up.

Who could it be? She slowly got out of bed and opened the door in a daze.

"Hello, Mrs. Shao; your lunch has been prepared. Do you want be to bring it here? Or, would you rather go down and eat it there?" A strange voice spoke from the woman who was asking in the door respectfully.

Ella looked at her from head to toe: "Who are you?" Ella had never seen her before now.

"Mrs. Shao, I am your new servant, Joy Liu." Joy Liu, along with another girl, were hired by Samuel.

Their job was just to clean the rooms, since there was no one left in the villa.

Servant? Ella nodded and said: "Thank you, I will have it by myself." Ella closed the door, changed her clothes and got down stairs.

Downstairs, she found a girl putting the dishes on the table.

The dishes were selected by Samuel, so Ella liked them.

After lunch, Ella surfed the internet the whole afternoon in the study.

There were too much netizens cursing at her. Ella almost couldn't help opening a Twitter account and scold them back.

But she thought for a while, and let it go.

During the evening, the dinner was still cooked by Joy Liu. And when Ella was having dinner, Jenny called her.

Today was Ella's birthday. When Richard asked Samuel, Ella found an excuse for him.

As she hung up up the phone, Ella felt that she had no appetite anymore.

Samuel must be celebrating Emma's birthday now... Putting down the bowl, Ella went back to the room and looked through the Twitter posts wearily.

Many people talked to her in private chatting on Twitter, so she decided to answer them one by one.

When she opened the 36th note, there was only a picture. In the picture it was Emma, holding a birthday cake in her hand while she blew it's candles on it.

And Samuel was sitting on her side.

Ella's eyes filled with tears and she couldn't help pouring them out at the sight of this.

Now she was not in the mood to surf the internet either, so she closed her phone and just stared at the blank ceiling of the room.

After Melody had coaxed Jerry to sleep, she was also ready to go to sleep too. But she kept thinking that she had forgotten something important.

As she was tumbling around in bed, she finally remembered what it was! Today was Ella's birthday!

She got out of bed and put on her glasses. It was already ten o'clock.

Young people always wake up late! She tried calling Ella. As it was expected, her phone call was answered right away.

"Ella, happy birthday!" Half a month ago, Melody had reminded herself to buy a gift for Ella. But today she totally forgot about it. Alas, the old always have a bad memory.

Ella was surprised to receive good wishes from Melody: "Grandma, you are so nice to have remembered my birthday!" Even grandma remembered her birthday...

"No, I just recalled it. I forgot to buy you a gift, but I'll buy you one another day. Don't be mad with me, please." Melody was kind of regretful that she didn't have anything to give to Ella.

"It's nothing, grandma. I am already happy that you just called me." Melody felt releaved after hearing Ella's joyful voice.
