Trapped with a Lawyer

Chapter 50 It's Inconvenient When My Son Is There.

Then why was she angry? She could not understand why she is acting like this. Samuel pondered

about the other night before she was left. Perhaps it was because he drank too much alcohol? Maybe

she does not like him when he drinks?

It couldn't be...

Samuel sent another Wechat message to Ella. He waited anxiously but she didn't reply.

So, Samuel did what he had to and made a call to Melody before seven the next morning.

"Darn, did you already forget how to make a phone call? Do you still think you were single, with no wife

nor children? Know your responsibilities, Samuel." As the phone was put through, Melody scolded him

from head to toe.

"Grandma, what happened?" Samuel looked at the empty apartment, feeling a bit uneasy and lonely.

"What happened? What did you do to make Ella angry?" Asked Melody in a disapproving tone.

A few days ago, Ella came back to their old house. She looked happy and was smiling but it looked a

bit pretentious. Melody knew her very well and sensed something was wrong. She kept asking Ella if

there was anything wrong, but Ella always tried to avoid the topic.

Samuel was more confused, "Put her on the phone, Grandma. She doesn't answer my messages." It

was the first time a disagreement like this has happened between Ella and him, and he wanted to know

the reason too. He wanted to fix this immediately. Every little moment without her is a torture.

After a while, he heard Melody talking to Ella. "Ella, this one is for you. Let me take care of the child

first."

"Who is it, grandma?" Then he heard brisk footsteps. Someone took the phone, And hang up without

saying anything.

...... Samuel looked at his phone, eyes widening in disbelief. His little woman had become bolder now.

Not only did she not answer his phone call, but she also hung it up straight away. This is becoming

surreal in a very bad way.

Samuel felt really uneasy. He decided to take it upon himself and left early that evening to visit Ella in

the old house.

Jerry has not stopped crying right until dinnertime. Maybe he was that hungry. Ella anxiously fetched

the milk powder, made the concoction, tested the temperature and fed the rubber nipple into Jerry's

mouth. Jerry at once stopped crying.

Ella was relieved to see him happily drinking the milk. This little guy couldn't bear to be just a little bit

hungry! But his smile and his cute smirks always take her pain and tiredness away.

She heard the door opened behind her. Ella didn't bother to look. "Grandma, he's hungry, and also

looks a bit sleepy." Jerry almost fell asleep when he was drinking the milk, his eyes almost closing

already.

But Melody didn't reply, and just walked to her.

"Grandma, he's got such a good appetite. He's been fed two or three times this already this afternoon.

He takes up lots of food and milk lately." She prepared two thirds of a bottle of milk every now and then,

but Jerry seems not to have enough. Perhaps that was because he was a boy.

But the strange thing is Grandma did not even say a thing to reply to her. Ella looked back in confusion,

and saw a tall, familiar figure.

Samuel appeared all of a sudden. Ella paused, but continued to hold her son in her arms. Her face

remained expressionless. As if she had not seen him, she made it seem like she does not have any

intention to talk to him.

At this moment, Samuel was so sure that his wife was angry. In the past, she would always approach

him in a very cheerful and affectionate way.

"Hon." He sat down beside her, draping his arm over her shoulder.

Ella was feeding their child. She didn't shake off his hand, nor did she even respond with a simple nod.

In fact, all the anger that she tried so hard to repress has already been gone, and she didn't even feel

upset.

Samuel did not hurry to ask what was the matter with her. He kissed her gently on the cheek and then

squatted down in front of her and lovingly looked at the son in her arms.

Samuel squeezed her son's cute cheeks and felt all emotions come to him. Jerry opened his eyes

when Samuel squatted down.

He was still drinking milk, slurping, his two big eyes rolling around, looking at his parents. Ella couldn't

help kissing him on his cheek. He's so irresistibly cute.

And Samuel kissed him too on where she kissed.

Ella blushed at this sweet gesture. To hide her feelings, Ella put the milk bottle into Jerry's hands, and

stood with Jerry in her arms.

She tried to walk away from Samuel.

With a few strides, Samuel stopped her from opening the door and took their son in his arms. "Wait for

me here."

He took Jerry out of the bedroom, kissed him, and walked down the stairs.

Melody was pacing back and forth in the living room, trying to hear the couple's sentiments towards

each other. Restless, she hurried to meet them when she saw Samuel brought Jerry down. "Why are

you coming down so soon? Are both of you okay now?"

Samuel placed his son in his grandmother's arms. "Please take care of him for a while, Grandma. It's

really uneasy when my son is there. I'll go back and talk to her." Then he turned back and went

upstairs.

Melody looked worryingly, and urged him, "Do it nicely. Don't lose your temper."

"Sure, grandma." She knows that Samuel had a temper and he does not afford to get mad now.

In the bedroom

Ella was folding their son's newly dried clothes. She looked normal, but in fact, she was really nervous.

She was also so worried. She was overthinking so much lately.

The bedroom door quietly opened and she heard it being locked.

Samuel went to her, took the little garments of her son and laid them aside.

Pulling her into his arms, he kissed on her lips. He has been dying to do that for a while now.

However, Ella shoved him away. Then she sat beside her son's little crib, and continued folding his

clothes.

Samuel touched his forehead in frustration. "What's the matter?" He half crouched down in front of her,

and looked at her. Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!

"Mr. Shao, I will live with my son and raise him up by myself. I won't mess with you anymore, nor you

with me." She wanted to end their relationship.

And it was also the first time that she called him Mr. Shao. The formality almost took his hopes away.

Samuel gently took their son's clothes away from her again and put them on the bed.

He brought her to her feet, holding her tightly. "You must tell me what I am convicted of before passing

a sentence." Ella turned her face away, but he held her chin and made her look at him.

"What am I convicted of? What am I guilty of?" Ella smiled sarcastically, "Mr. Shao, you are a top

international lawyer. How dare I be so indiscreet as to demonstrate my crude skills in front of a master

of the trade like you."

...... Samuel's patience was about to run out, "Out with it now. Or you will have to skip dinner tonight."

Ella could read between the lines. She knew what he meant.

She blushed, but still remained a stubborn stance. "What now? So I'm not allowed to have even a

morsel of food in Mr. Shao's house? Are you that eager to kick me out?"

Samuel faked a straight face when he heard her cold words, "Ella Bo, I'll give you a last chance."

Ella became more annoyed to see him become seemingly angry. How in the world could he be mad

when this is his fault? She pushed him away. Samuel didn't expect that, falling directly onto the bed

behind him.

Where did she get all that strength? Despite his shock, Samuel wore a playful smile on his face, "Well?

Can't wait to take me to bed?" He liked that.

"Get out of here! Go out!" Exasperated, she grasped the pillow next to her and threw it on him.

Samuel grabbed the pillow and threw it on the floor. Then he took hold of her by the wrist and forcefull

dragged her to bed.
