No Escape From Mr. CEO's Dangerous Love

Chapter 508

Samuel nodded and turned to Ella with a serious face. "Are you implying that you do not wish to stay by my side?" He completely ignored Eason's presence. Samuel's gaze was intense and his voice soothing.

On hearing his change of tone, Ella was timid instantly. Her face went red and she murmured: "Of course not." She wanted nothing but to stay with Samuel all the time. But she was also concerned she would slow him down during work.

"Fair enough, you can stay here for now. No need to go downstairs anymore." Samuel stood up with the file in his hand. He walked over to his desk and pressed a button. "Anna, please come in." His voice was cool and steady, not like the way he addressed Ella just now. It sounded very formal - exactly how a boss should be while speaking to his subordinates.

Within 30 seconds, someone knocked on the office door and Anna walked in.

She saw the three of them sitting on the couch and raised a smile: "Mr. Lowell."

Eason had met Anna many times before. He whistled at her casually, not much of a gentleman's move.

Ella looked at her bother in shock. 'What is wrong with him? Is he trying to flirt with the beautiful lady?'

Anna, however, completely ignored Eason. She stood there gracefully and looked at Samuel, waiting for his orders.

Samuel could not care less about Eason's behavior. Six years ago, when Eason saw Anna for the first time, he behaved like this. Nothing had changed ever since.

"Please return the file to Ms. Reynolds and inform her that my wife now works on Floor 68. Thank her for taking care of my wife before."

Anna cast a glance in Ella's direction and felt happy for her. She took over the file and replied: "Yes, Mr. Lowell."

"Thank you. That's all for now." Samuel laid his hand on the back of Ella's couch. Hearing Samuel's remarks, Eason noticed that the two were very intimate.

Eason was very relieved to see that his sister was happy in the marriage. In a good mood, he turned to Anna and said: "Beautiful Anna, how about a candle-lit dinner with me tonight?"

Anna did not cast a look at him, completely ignoring him. She politely bid Samuel goodbye. "Mr. Lowell, I will be on my way."

Anna walked out, but somehow Eason stood up immediately and followed her out.

Ella looked at the back of her brother and was utterly shocked. She knew it very well that her brother was kind of a playboy. But this was the first time she witnessed him chasing after a girl.

Anna completely ignored him and yet he had the guts to chase after her like that... Was Eason in love with Anna?'

"What's on your mind?" The office was now quiet as they were the only ones left. Samuel found Ella's shocked face quite amusing. He leaned over and asked her.

His handsome face was so close to her that Ella was startled. She replied honestly: "I am thinking about my brother and Anna."

Samuel was wondering since when Ella began to care about Anna. Were they already friends?

Anna was a workaholic. She wasn't very social. Work was everything to her. He had her working for him as an assistant for six years. He never saw her hanging out with any friends.

Anna was smiling at Ella just now and they seemed to be on very good terms. Samuel came to the conclusion that the two were very friendly to each other.

"Your brother should really behave now. He shouldn't be acting like a playboy all the time." Eason should follow Samuel's example. Marry a wife, have a child and start up a family. How nice it would be.

Ella could not agree with Samuel more. She nodded and said: "I would be very happy if Anna could end up being my sister-in-law." "If only my brother could behave himself."

Anna as their sister-in-law? His six-year-long assistant might end up being his sister-in-law. Samuel found this thought very weird.

"It depends on them." If Eason could somehow settle down, it would surely be nice.

Ella nodded in agreement. The office went quiet. Only the sound of their breathing could be heard.

Ella's heart beat was fast. She stood up from the couch and said: "Samuel, what can I do for you?" Her voice was soft.

Her body scent smelled like Jasmine. She pulled herself away from him and this made Samuel a little bit sad.

He stood up from the couch as well, reached out for her hand and walked her towards the desk. As he sat down on his chair, he asked her: "Massage my shoulders please."

"Massage your shoulders?" Ella paused.

Samuel raised his eyebrows and checked her reaction. He smiled and nodded: "Give me a gentle massage, and then we talk about work." His work was too complicated for her anyway. She would contribute more harm than good.

He would hand easier projects over to her. He would not rush into it.

"Well!" Ella's face was reddish. She laid her hands on his shoulders and started to massage him clumsily.

She had no clue what she was doing and why, all of a sudden, Samuel asked her to do this.

"Not much strength here. Harder." Samuel gave her orders while turning on his computer to prepare for his case in court tomorrow.

Ella set her teeth and really put an effort in massaging his shoulders. How come he did not feel pain at all?

On Floor 23.

Eason badgered Anna for a while until Anna finally gave up and agreed to have dinner with him.

She took a deep breath and restored her professional posture.

She took the file assigned to Ella and delivered it to Catherine's office. She put it on her table and said: "Ms. Reynolds, Mr. Lowell asked me to convey his decision that Mrs. Lowell will now work on Floor 68. He thanks you for taking care of Mrs. Lowell these days."

Her plain tone was quite distant and official.

Catherine furrowed her eyebrows when she learned Ella now worked on Floor 68. She asked: "How come? Ella mentioned something to Mr. Lowell?"

Anna smiled and replied: "I am not sure whether Ella mentioned anything to Mr. Lowell or not. However I do know, if you didn't do anything wrong, Ella would have nothing to mention to Mr. Lowell." What Anna was implying here was that Ella's testimony wouldn't come out of thin air.

If Catherine did something unfair, it was obvious Ella would mention it to Mr. Lowell.

Anna had full faith in Ella, as she believed her to be a generous and kind lady.

The truth was that Ella was so goofy that she probably never mentioned Catherine's name in front of Samuel.

Anna did what Samuel told her to do and walked to Ella's seat. She quickly tidied up Ella's stuff and went back to Floor 68. All content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.

She intended to return the stuff to Ella. But when she knocked on the door, she heard Samuel's voice from inside. "Come back later." His voice was very strange.

... Anna was a mature woman and she somehow had a vague idea what was going on there.

Her face was reddish as she returned to her seat. She put Ella's stuff aside, as of course, Ella was now "busy".

In the Venice Hotel.

Emma hung up the call from a private detective and coldly stared at the woman sitting on the opposite couch.

Elaine did not look her age at all. Although she was almost 50, her face showed no wrinkles due to heavy make-up. She gazed at her finger tips and appreciated her newly-manicured nails. Then she scornfully opened her mouth: "You don't have money for me, but you do have money for private detectives!"

Emma found it quite hard to accept the fact that Elaine was her mother.

Every time Elaine came to her, she was asking for money and threatening her with the concept of "blood is thicker than water".

"Mrs. Elaine, could you just leave me alone? I am quite upset now, don't you understand?" Emma anxiously threw her phone on the bed and then sat down on the couch.
