Trapped with a Lawyer

Elaine looked at her irritated daughter and giggled winningly: "Oh my dear daughter, you are so pretty, and I am sure you can use that to your advantage." Samuel with all his money was such a catch. It was so stupid of Emma to ever let go of him.

Emma was now more agitated. Of course she had been trying to get him, but Samuel always turned her down with a cold shoulder.

"Say no more. You should leave now." Elaine was in heavy debt and there were a lot of people chasing after her for money. Emma would hate to see those rude and brutal debt-collectors.

Elaine laid herself comfortably on the couch and behaved like an unreasonable child: "I have nowhere to go." She followed Emma to America and then from America to here. She would go wherever Emma went. Her daughter was her source of income. How could she live without her.

Emma stood up and took out a thick deck of money from her purse. She threw the money on the table and shouted at her mother: "I have no more savings. You are driving me crazy! Your unreasonable demands are killing me!"

Elaine was thrilled when she saw the money. She sat up and started counting.

She cast a glance at her daughter's irritated face and casually said: "What are you worried about? Didn't you just receive a lot of money from the boss of your firm, Mr. Fei?" mocked Elaine.

How dare she bring this up! Emma touched her forehead in agony. She stood up from the the couch and pulled Elaine towards the door with all her force. She shouted: "Go away right now!" Was she really her mother? How could she do this to her? She was a bloody nightmare! Were it not for her mother and her huge debts, she wouldn't have sold her body to old Mr. Felix Fei.

Elaine would not leave Emma alone. She glared at her and said: "I am your mother. How dare you talk back to me like this!" "Such a useless daughter!" "Can't even marry herself to a rich man!"

However, all she got was a huge slam of the door. The door was slammed close.

With Elaine gone, the room finally went quiet.

Emma sat down on the floor with her arms around her legs. She was in great agony.

She used to think that Samuel was the one. A man who she could rely on for the rest of her life. But somehow their relationship was cut short by the hands of Melody, that wench!

When she was with Samuel, all her expenses were paid by him.

With Samuel gone and her mother's heavy debts falling on her shoulders, Ella was now facing a financial crisis.
