Trapped with a Lawyer

When people surrounded them, they began to whistle and whisper. Ella's heart was pounding rapidly. However, Samuel would not let her go, no matter how hard she tried. 'What a disgrace! Samuel, you bastard!' Ella thought to herself.

As they remained in their embrace, the crowd got rowdier with excitement. Ella purposely stepped on Samuel's brand new black leather shoes in anger.

Aware of her outrage, Samuel slightly frowned, and slowly let go of her.

"Did you learn something new from your mistake?" whispered Samuel in a seducing tone in her left ear.

Ella, who had bowed her head, trying to calm down, really couldn't fathom what Samuel was talking about. However, she did nothing but nod.

Seeing Ella nod repeatedly, Samuel finally released her.

For the next two to three hours, Samuel just stood quietly not far from the crew. Ella, who was wearing a sky blue crinoline dress of English royal style, had started to act her role as the princess. Though she did not look like an authentic British person, Ella, was a good actress and was perfect to play the role of the character.

A standby actress, who originated from ?Hong Kong, approached Samuel, who was smoking.

"Hello, are you Mr. Shao?" asked the actress in a non-standard Mandarin ?language.

Since Samuel's eyes were focused entirely on Ella the whole time, he nodded carelessly without saying a single word.

"Mr. Shao, do you happen to know Ella?" asked the woman from Hong Kong tentatively. She knew she still had a chance if Ella was only his girlfriend.

After taking a draw on his cigarette, Samuel replied casually, "She is my wife." Since they were on a break from filming, Ella looked towards Samuel, who had a sly smile?on his face. She had just given him a quick glance and then had turned her back to him.

"Oh!" Is it true that she was your ex-wife, as many people have claimed on social media?" At this moment, this was the last bit of hope for the woman.

Samuel shook his head, making her think she still had a chance. But what he said next, deprived the woman of all the hope she still had.

"She is not my ex-wife. She is my present wife. We are civilly married."

The woman did not dare speak again. Her heart had shattered into pieces as she left in tears.

Knowing? Samuel, who had done the crew a favor by dealing with Jason, was waiting for Ella, the director allowed Ella to get off work early.

Samuel opened the passenger's door of his Aston Martin. Ella, however, circumvented the luxury car as if she had not seen it, and went straight to the company's RV.

'What a woman!' said Samuel in his thoughts, looking at Ella with deep affection.

He had no choice but to use force.

The moment Ella stepped one foot into the RV, she felt that she was floating as Samuel grabbed her. "Ah!" exclaimed Ella. She had suppressed her desire to squeal when she remembered she was at the studio, within ear shot of the film crew and other actors and actresses.

Samuel carried Ella to his car, and threw her in, despite a crowd of people staring. He then drove off hurriedly.

They arrived shortly at the apartment.

As Samuel was looking for a place to park the car, Ella took the chance to get into the elevator first.

As the elevator was going up, Ella had already made her mind to firmly shut the door before he arrived at her door. However, the elevator stopped on the third floor because a troublesome blonde boy had pressed the button.

Ella had only hoped the other elevator hadn't passed hers.

But sadly, she soon found out it had.

When the elevator door opened, she found Samuel leaning against the door of her apartment, which was open.

"Oh!" She remembered Samuel had recorded his fingerprint the last time he was with her.

Pushing him out of the way, Ella went to the hallway to change her shoes. "What are you doing here again? Haven't we made a rule that you should not visit me without my permission?" Samuel took off his shoes and walked on the white floor in socks. Ella frowned. She handed him slippers from the cabinet that she had bought when he was there last time.

"I am not here to visit you, but to pick you up," Samuel answered, while putting on the slippers.

"Pick me up?" Ella looked at Samuel, puzzled. He couldn't wait to hold her in his arms affectionately. She loved the way he smelt.

"Well, aren't you coming back home in a few days?" said Samuel with an enormous smile on his face.

He then stepped closer to her.

Ella, in shock, wondered how he knew of her plans.

'Oh! Harry must have told him, ' thought Ella.

"Mr. Shao, since when did you become kind enough to come a long way to the United States just to pick up a woman?" Ella used her right palm to block his lips. She looked at him, with an amused expression on her face.

Samuel smiled and kissed her on the back of the palm of her right hand. "Ella, let's start over."

Start over? Ella was at a loss. She broke free from his arms and went to her bedroom.

She was not unwilling to get back together with Samuel. But she had major concerns about him.

Samuel wrapped his arms around her from behind. "Ella, I sincerely apologize. Will you forgive me?" Samuel's voice was gentle, which made Ella almost say yes.

She took a deep breath and replied, looking at him straight in the face, "Mr. Shao, do you have no other creative ways of seducing me?"

Seducing her? Samuel smiled and said, "As long as it works." However, will Ella, who seemed to hate him since the day she ran away, easily give in to his desire? Ella was interrupted by Samuel's cell phone ringing.

He looked at the caller ID, contemplatively. After several seconds, he answered the phone. "Hello," said Samuel, leading Ella into the bedroom with his arms around her waist.

Her apartment looked the same as the day he had left. Where had Ella been living since then?

Ella hung her coat onto the hanger, and Samuel started to focus on the phone call.

"Why would he insist on seeing me?"

"I can't. I'm not in country C at the moment."

"Okay. Bye."

Samuel hang up the phone, wondering why Drake beseeched him for a meeting with him.

Three minutes later, Samuel entered the kitchen, and found the refrigerator empty.

Samuel shook his head helplessly, went to the bedroom and opened the door. Ella was putting on her house clothes, Not expecting Samuel to show up. After some hesitation, she continued changing her clothes as if nothing happened.

When she buckled the first button, Samuel put his arms around her waist from behind.

"Seduce me?" Samuel said, in a deep voice in her left ear.

Ella rolled her eyes in anger. "Do you think everyone is as lascivious as you?" said Ella, coldly. She then squirmed free and threw the clothes she had worn during the day in the laundry hamper. ☐☐☐☐☐
