Trapped with a Lawyer

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.
