No Escape From Mr. CEO's Dangerous Love

Chapter 507

Emma knew what Ella was referring to. It was Viola's input that made the cooperation with Samuel's firm possible. That man really had a cold heart. He had been seeing her for so many years and now he acted as if they were just like strangers.

It was all caused by this woman who was now standing right in front of her. She was Samuel's so- called 'wife'...

"Ms. Leonard, I just want to ask you one simple question. How did you get pregnant with Samuel's child back then?" When Samuel and Ella were not married, Emma was certain that Samuel was still in love with her.

She knew Samuel was a decent man. It was not possible for him to cheat on her.

But then, Ella just claimed that she was pregnant with Samuel's child. This raised her doubts as to what kind of tricks Ella had used.

Ella heard Emma's words and her face went pale.

This was supposed to be a secret. If anyone found out the truth, she would face horrible consequences.

"This is a private matter between me and my husband. It is none of your business. Ms. Reynolds, you should just mind your own business." With these words, Ella walked passed her and headed directly to the elevator.

When she was out of Emma's sight, Ella immediately got cold feet.

Emma's question haunted her. Ella prayed that her secret could remain secret forever.

Of course Emma was smart enough to notice Ella's reaction. Her face did go pale.

Something was not right. She felt urgency to investigate the situation.

"Ella, complete this file and hand it over to me in half an hour!" Catherine had just left her office, and stopped Ella before she could reach her desk.

Ella accepted the paper from her hand and nodded silently.

She was quite used to such situations now. Catherine's tricks were not that hard to put up with.

Ella was not stupid either. If she found something was out of her capabilities, she always turned to her husband for help. Samuel could fix anything for her. This made her extremely grateful and relieved.

Right now, Ella sat in her chair and stared at the file. She frowned her eyebrows as the file seemed quite difficult for her.

She never did any similar files before and Catherine had never bothered to find someone to teach her.

Only half an hour's time... She had to sneak out and seek help from Samuel.

Floor 68

Ella greeted Anna on her way and knocked on Samuel's office door.

She heard Samuel's reply and opened the door.

Inside the office, there was a man in white suit sitting on the couch. Ella was delighted to see him.

"Brother!" Ella was very happy to see Eason here. Her eyes were full of joy and she briskly flew towards him like a butterfly.

Eason was about to go see her downstairs just now. He stood up, opened his arms and embraced her warmly.

The two had not seen each other for half a year. They hugged each other with great joy and excitement.

Samuel looked at them and was not very pleased. He walked over and pulled Ella out of Eason's arms.

"Hey, greeting is enough, no need for hugs." Samuel stared at Eason with dissatisfaction. Even Eason could not hug his wife.

Ella was quite confused on hearing Samuel's words.

She looked at his face and noticed that he was not very pleased. But why?

Eason laughed. He examined his sister from head to toe and was very satisfied with his findings.

It was true, then, that Samuel had been treating her well. Just like what she had told him via Wechat.

Eason calmly moved back to the couch and sat there with his legs crossed. "Come here, Ella. Sit next to your big brother." Eason pointed to the empty seat next to him.

Ella was about to walk over to him when Samuel pulled her hand and indicated her to sit opposite Eason.

Moreover, he even laid a hand on her shoulder to show his stance.

Eason curled up his lips and smiled playfully. What was Samuel trying to prove to him? Was he showing off?

He was Ella's brother.

Was that gesture even necessary? On second thought, if he felt this protective of her in the presence of her own brother, then he would protect her even better in front of other men! Good job!

Ella looked at Samuel and had no idea what was going on.

Were Samuel and Eason still on bad terms? Why Samuel did not allow her to sit next to her brother? Whatever, if sitting next to Eason upset Samuel, she would just sit here then.

"Brother, when did you come back? Are our parents aware of your return?" "Why didn't you say anything beforehand?" Ella's voice was soothing and cheerful. She behaved like a jolly little girl in front of her brother. Samuel seldom saw her like that.

Eason took a packet of cigarettes out of his pocket and the two men both lit up a cigarette.

"They knew. I just arrived this morning. I was about to go downstairs and check you out when you showed up." Samuel took the paper in Ella's hand and started reading it.

It was only when Samuel took the paper out of her hand that Ella suddenly remembered her purpose in coming here.

"Samuel, I don't know what to do with this file. That is why I am here." She was quite embarrassed as she always bothered him with her works. Material © NôvelDrama.Org.

Only now did Samuel suspect that something might be wrong, "Catherine never asked any senior staff to show you how to do things here?" Usually beginners would get some help from the senior staff. Let alone the fact that Ella studied arts, not laws in school.

Catherine? Eason furrowed his eyebrows when he heard the name. He opened his mouth grumpily: "Wait a second, Samuel, what were you thinking, leaving Ella to Catherine?" Was he trying to feed a lamb to a tiger?

His sister was so innocent that when she was confronted with a member from the Reynolds family, she was doomed to get bullied.

Samuel paused when he heard Eason's words. He only considered that Catherine was an outstanding lawyer when he appointed Ella to be her assistant. He never thought about the fact that Catherine was Emma's cousin.

Samuel checked the file in his hands again and then he realized that Ella must have been suffering a lot when working under Catherine.

Eason then turned to Ella and said with a stern voice: "Ella, you should quit this job. You always wanted to return to the entertainment industry. I can help you with that."

Ella was take aback by what Eason said. It never occurred to her that Eason would voice her secret out loud. It was supposed to be a secret between her and her brother only.

Ella awkwardly opened her mouth and tried to cover it up: "Brother, stop making things up. I am perfectly fine here." She was happy here as she got to see Samuel most of the time and was able to work with him. As for those incidents at work, she could not care less.

Ella wanted to return to entertainment industry?

Samuel frowned his eyebrows. The thought of Ella making out with other actors while acting in movies made him uncomfortable. He made his decision instantly: "No need for that. My wife should be working with me. I will inform the firm later that Ella will be working as my personal assistant." She would only have to answer to him without taking on extra work

On hearing Samuel's words, Ella and Eason had completely different reactions.

Eason nodded his head with great satisfaction. He was very glad to see that things had improved significantly for this couple.

Ella shook her hands anxiously: "There's no need for that, Samuel..."

"No way!" Samuel interrupted her directly. He would also investigate how Ella was treated on Floor 23 during her time there.

"Ella, I agree with Samuel's decision. You shouldn't argue anymore." Eason would never let his sister work with any member from the Reynolds family.
