Trapped with the Lawyer

His words made her nod like a bird pecking rice.

Stopping, the man put her down.

Ella immediately ran towards the house. After running for over ten meters, Ella shouted, "Samuel, you bastard! You're a bully!" After that, she turned around and ran.

Samuel looked at Ella running in a panic with satisfaction.

Bastard! She had called him a bastard numerous times. He would teach her a lesson later tonight!

Slamming the door of the living room heavily, Ella gasped for breath. Half a minute later, the quiet atmosphere in the living room made her uncomfortable.

Turning around slowly, Ella found Vincent and Melody looking at her in astonishment. Uh... She forgot they were in the living room. Ella smiled at them awkwardly and said, "I'm going to wash my hands." Looking like a child caught red-handed, Ella went into the washing area in dejection.

After Ella washed her hands, Samuel calmly entered the living room.

Sitting next to her son, Ella ducked her head and ate the rice in her bowl, her thoughts elsewhere.

After a while, a piece of stewed meat was put into her bowl, snapping her out of her thoughts.

Knowing who put the meat in her bowl, Ella smiled at her grandmother sitting on the opposite side, "Thank you, grandma."

Melody was about to say something, when Samuel opened his mouth, "I'm not your grandma."

...

Ella wanted to throw the rice onto Samuel's face. He must be annoying her on purpose! Although she started it first...

"I thought grandma put the meat into my bowl. You're so mean! You're a bully!" She looked at Samuel piteously, hoping to get people on her side.

Ella looked so pitiful. She must be bullied by Samuel all the time. Melody put down the chopsticks and said seriously, "Samuel, as a man, you should yield to your wife."

Vincent also frowned at Samuel, "You are way out of line. Ella is your wife. You should be nice to her!"

When her boyfriend betrayed her, all light and joy was gone from Cherry’s life. Deserted, bereft of hope, she married a man that she had barely met, but she had never expected him to be her ex-boyfriend’s uncle.

Cherry thought that she had finally found her happiness, but she had no idea about the dark secrets that were bound to unfold and haunt her forever...

words. She mentioned so many charges. But he still thought she was overconfident. How confident of his professional skills could he be?

And he was also said to look down on other lawyers!

Ella sat on bench and watched the man playing with Jerry in the square. She began to admire herself, planning to ignore him. Why couldn't she resist talking to him?

On the way back home, Samuel held their son with one arm and pushed the stroller with the other. Jerry gradually fell asleep on his shoulder.

Upon entering the living room, they saw Viola who just got home after having dinner outside.

"Mother." Although Ella hated her mother-in-law, she greeted her politely.

But Viola ignored her. She walked towards Samuel and took Jerry from his arms.

"Samuel, do you know who I was with just now? " Looking at her excited expression, Ella and Samuel went upstairs together. No prizes for guessing who she was talking about.

At the landing, Ella cast a stern glance at Samuel. "Have you forgotten your son?" Samuel raised his eyebrow. How dare she order him? Very well! One more charge!

He took Jerry from Viola's arms and went upstairs.

Staring at their retreating figures, Viola got angry and said loudly, "I'm so glad I had dinner with Emma tonight!"
