Trapped with a Lawyer

Samuel captured dozens of photos with Ella

And replaced her phone wallpaper with the sweetest one, where they were kissing.

"Don't use this one. I won't be able to use my phone in front of others." Ella said, trying to change back the wallpaper. But Samuel stopped her.

"Keep it. Otherwise I will change the profile photo of your social media account."

Ella rolled her eyes at him and locked the screen.

Eyeing the cake on the table, her stomach grumbled for a piece. She walked away towards the table, to satiate her craving.

Samuel had intended to add some candles and wine so that he could dine with her, but Ella returned home earlier than expected. So there was only a cake on the table.

Ella cut the cake. Meanwhile, she found a metallic object in the cake.

Out of curiosity, she cleaned the metal. It turned out to be a gold key.

Samuel crept up behind her, just as Ella was about to ask him about the key, and encircled her waist with his arms. "I made this key for you. It's yours now."

Ella looked at the key carefully. She hasn't seen this one before. "What's the key for?"

"Take a guess." Samuel kissed her neck affectionately.

Putting down the knife, Ella turned back and smeared cream on his nose. His expression made her burst into laughter.

"Are you trying to turn me on, huh?"

Ella was taken aback by his words. 'What an erotic man!' She thought to herself.

His hands left her waist and reached for the cake.

He tried to shift her attention by asking. "Darling, would you like some cake?"

Ella, who was eager to eat, immediately nodded. "Of course!"

"Okay, but I would like to have the first taste." Samuel smeared cream on her red lips, cheeks, ears and neck.

And before she could protest, he kissed her, savouring the taste of the cake and her lips.

Then her turned his attention to the other parts of her body he had smeared cake on.

His sexual urges heightened, as he continued to tease her.

He threw her on the king-size bed and helped her took off her underwear. Then, without warning, he turned back and grabbed some cream again.

"Samuel, are you really a lawyer?" To her, lawyers were always serious. But Samuel was the exception. He defied all her expectations, on a day-to-day basis.

"I have a certificate." He was so busy admiring and tasting his handy work, that he couldn't even stop to say a long sentence.

"What kind of... certificate? A certificate.... for... for flirtation?" Ella said and gasped.

"Yes, you clever girl. For that, you deserve a treat!" he said, as he sensual kissed her from her legs up-to her lips.

Five minutes later.

Ella pushed Samuel away and pulled herself upright, leaving him lying on the bed, confused. Before he uttered a word, she rushed to the toilet.

Her strange but familiar behaviour reminded him of something. He became unhappy immediately.

As expected, Ella called him from the toilet. "Darling, I need a tampon or a pad."

Samuel sneered.

He muttered angrily to himself before he walked over to the dressing room, to pick out her night gown and a pad.

Ella was laughing wildly in the toilet.

Her period was just in time, greatly ruining Samuel's interest.

Samuel opened the toilet door and caught sight of her laughing. He was disappointed. "Ella, stop laughing. Do you think this will stop me? I don't mind being a vampire." What? Vampire?

Seeing that Ella was puzzled, Samuel explained it explicitly.

"I don't mind tasting your blood."

Ella blushed. "Eww! Get out of here." Looking at her red lips, Samuel got an idea.

He smiled and left the toilet.

Ella was shocked by his countenance. She wondered whether he had made up his mind to do as he promised.

At night, Ella was lying and sleeping in his arms. A slight movement from Samuel woke her up.

"Samuel? What's the matter?" He should be satisfied by now. Why did he wake her up?

Samuel had intended to smoke a cigarette, but he remembered that Ella had banned him from smoking ever again. So he managed to hold back.

"You've been leading a stress-free life, haven't you? You seemed to forget the trouble."

Ella shook her head, wondering what he meant. "Lawyer Shao, stop speaking in riddles. What are you trying to say?"

"Are you done with your revenge towards Catherine?" Samuel itched for the answer as he still wasn't done with avenging for her.

"Of course not. I am not as merciful as the Virgin Mary." She would never forgive Catherine, but she hadn't come up with another way to punish her. "Then what are you waiting for?"

"I do not. Do you have any suggestion?"

Samuel thought for a while and said, "I am collecting the evidence against her. I've already made sure that the guy who kidnapped you four years ago has been imprisoned. I will ask him to be our witness if necessary."

Murder alone was enough to carry a death penalty, but Samuel didn't want to give her a quick death. He wanted Ella to vent her anger by giving Catherine a hard time.

"Before then, you can do anything

you want your bodyguards will keep you safe. He knew that Catherine was like a ticking time bomb. The earlier they got rid of her, the safer they would be.

But she had been so careful that it was hard to find evidence against her. His men had even gone to the extent of investigating abroad.

He was afraid that there was much more they hadn't uncovered. He needed to be careful.

Ella thought for a long time but

failed to come up with a good action

plan. "Fine, I give up. Samuel, just collect the evidence you need to put her in prison. I just want to get rid of her, and move on."

Samuel nodded and said, "Okay, I will do it your way."

Ella thought of the key, so she asked him. "By the way, what's the key for?"

"Take a guess."

Ella became angry and pinched his chest rather hard. "Fuck off!" Stop playing games. I'm on my period, and you know how easily I can get angry. Say it, or I will keep pinching your chest!" Samuel tried not to laugh because whether Ella was on her period or not, she easily resorted to anger.
