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.

"Well. Where is Samuel?" Melody thought that today was Ella's birthday. Samuel must surely be with

her.

Ella thought for a while and said: "Grandma, he is staying with Emma now. It's also her birthday... "

Melody was burned up right away as she heard this. How could Samuel be such wavering? How can

he celebrate his mistress' birthday but ignor his wife's?

Melody hung up the phone without even saying goodbye to her and called Samuel.

But the phone rang for a long time and no one answered.

Melody was in a hurry, so she sent a message to her grandson: "Samuel, its Ella's birthday, do you

know that?"

Samuel and Emma got out of The Storm and said goodbye to her friends.

Then the two got into Samuel's car and drove off.

"Samuel, I am so happy today. Thank you for your bracelet. I like it very much." Emma looked at the

bracelet that Samuel gave her. She was very happy.

"Good, as long as you love it." Samuel replied to her with indifference.

While they waited for the green light, Emma approached Samuel and put her small palm on his big

one.

She touched her wrist unintentionally and felt that something was wrong with it. She lifted his sleeve

and saw a tooth mark in it.

Samuel changed his face completely and drew back his arm and covered his wrist back with his sleeve

Emma, of course, would never believe that it was a mark left by himself or his son. He was bit by a

woman apparently.

She was now hurt: "Samuel, that woman cheated on you again and again. Do you really still want to be

with her?"

While they stopped at a red light and had to wait for ten minutes, Samuel didn't even move his eyes,

and his tooth mark was hidden neatly under his sleeve.

"I know how to deal with this." Samuel started the car straight away when the traffic light changed to

green one.

It was already 2 a.m. when he sent Emma home and came back to his villa.

The BWM was stopped at the door by another man, according to Samuel's given instructions. Samuel

got out of the car and then parked it in the garage.

When he got out the BWM, some hand bags drew his attention.

But he didn't think too much of it and took them to be the stuff Ella had bought yesterday.

Carrying the bags, he left the garage.

It was late. She must be asleep with all the light off.

He took out his phone and checked the time. It was already more than two o'clock in the morning.

There was an unread message from grandma. When he saw what it was, Samuel stopped walking.

Half a minute later, he put his phone back into his pocket and opened the handbags he was carrying.

The first gift was an imported ceramic water cup with some letters on it which were written in white

mark pen: "Dear Ella, happy birthday to you! Love you. Mam."

Then he opened the next handbag. There was a white skirt with a letter on it: "Ella, I wish you will live a

faerie happy life!" Monkey.

...

Ella's birthday was in the same day as with Emma's.

He walked into the villa and opened bedroom's door. The bed was empty.

Where was Ella? The bodyguards were outside the villa. She must be here.

He went to other rooms but still he couldn't find her.

Finally, he went to the study and pushed the door open. He saw that it was a dim light there. On the

sofa, beside the computer, lay a small, familiar figure.
