Trapped with a Lawyer
Chapter 4 It Was Too Hard to Leave This Place
In the flower garden.
Melody Han took out a wet tissue for Ella. "Wipe your sweat with this. Pregnant women cannot tolerate hot weather." While saying those words, she fetched out a wet tissue from a melon tray.
"Grandma, thanks for the watermelon." The two of them stayed in the old house, while the servants were out to buy vegetables. Ella felt much better after wiping her sweat off her cheeks.
Melody Han made a gesture to show didn't mind and said, "It is very easy to cut up a watermelon. The watermelon is so sweet!"
Ella responded with a nod of approval and placed the remaining peel down. When she was ready to pick up another slice, she heard somebody remark, "Don't you know that pregnant women shouldn't eat too much watermelon?"
Ella and her grandma turned around at the same time. They saw Samuel at the door in a white T-shirt.
At this moment, he, with a gloomy face, was staring at Ella who was subconsciously protecting her stomach.
Being pleasantly surprised for a while, Ella was scared into putting the melon in her hands back on the tray immediately.
Melody Han made a long face for a minute. With a hint of sarcasm in her voice, Melody Hand said, "I even forgot I have a grandson, too!"
Poor Ella! Though Samuel rarely kept her company, she never complained.
Worse, Samuel had the nerve to appear on the entertainment news with that woman, Emma!
The number of people who wanted to dig up Samuel's personal business increased, as his fame rose. Some news was unexpectedly exposed in public yesterday.
In particular, the provoking headline – "Golden Layer has an affair with Editor-in-Chief Emma, when he has a pregnant wife at home."
Ella got so upset upon receiving that news, that Melody Han was at a loss for how to comfort her.
Even so, Ella still felt pleasantly surprise the moment she saw Samuel today.
