Chapter 554
Shit! Ella thought of her to be a shameless woman and ran out of patience.
"Lawyer Reynolds, you are an employee at my husband's company. We have to meet now and then. Would it hurt to be so generous as to accommodate my request?" Ella's tone turned hard due to her anger.
Catherine remembered Samuel telling her that he would ask Ella to apologize. She didn't argue any further, "Address." She remembered her pride and decided to act superior during the meeting.
Ella felt hopeful, and her anger subsided. She smiled, "The Dominator on Victory Road." This coffee shop had been set up by Harry for Lola. It was a small branch, and the main store was located in the New Area, far from here.
Catherine remembered Emma's beating in the bar and became cautious. Hearing that the coffee shop was in the downtown area, Catherine's mind settled.
"Okay, I will meet you there!" She hung up without saying anything further. Ella glared at the phone.
At the Dominator Coffee Shop, Ella took a seat by the door. The position was perfect; she could disappear quickly, and no one would notice.
She asked for a cup of milk tea and sipped quietly. Ella was drinking the last of her tea, and Catherine still had not appeared.
Seeing that an hour and a half had passed, Ella panicked. If Samuel did not find her in the villa, he would be very upset with her.
He would ask questions and Ella would get into trouble.
Two hours had passed when Catherine finally appeared.
She wore a fashionable black jacket and a tight black skirt.
Ella withheld her anger, smiled and waved at Catherine.
Catherine saw Ella's bright smile. She now understood why this woman appealed to Samuel.
She was not only beautiful but also had the most brilliant and genuine smile...
Catherine sat down opposite her. Ella watched in silence as Catherine ordered her drink.
"Hurry up. I have no time." Catherine gulped her drink impatiently.
Ella waved her hand, and the gesture made Catherine's heart beat quicker. She knew she was in trouble. Catherine pretended to be calm and took her phone from her bag.
What a damn bitch! Untrustworthy as expected! Catherine had expected as much from Ella and had hence, put Samuel's number on speed dial before she left home.
She re-dialed Samuel's number and locked the screen. Suddenly she was rushed by several people.
Regardless of whether or not the call had connected, Catherine shouted, "Ella, what are you gonna
do? Ella..." And then Catherine found herself being dragged into a nearby alley by several guys.
To prevent her from shouting again, Monkey covered her mouth.
The cell phone fell to the floor, but Ella didn't notice. She walked up to Catherine and kicked her.
"Ah!" Catherine kept her hand over her heart and tried to calm herself. She was shaking. Ella was strong. 'Ella, wait and see! I will make you pay for your treachery!' Catherine thought.
"You and Emma! You've caused nothing but trouble for me." Ella grabbed Catherine's chin and turned her face.
Catherine glared at the woman, "You act so proper in front of Samuel. So weak and helpless." Weak and helpless? Humph! "Instead, you are a bitch!"
"Smack!" Ella had hit Catherine on her face, and continued to do so ruthlessly. "Even if I am a bitch, so what? You are in no position to call me that." This was the first time the two women were meeting, and Ella was bullying Catherine for no reason. NôvelDrama.Org owns all © content.
"Ella, you cunt! You will not get away with this!" Catherine saw her phone light flickering before it went off completely. She understood that Samuel had been listening and knew of her situation.
Sure enough, Ella's phone rang next.
Seeing that Samuel was calling, Ella waved at Monkey, "Keep hitting her! Slap her face! Don't be gentle!"
Catherine found her mouth being covered. Then she felt several feet kicking her. She tried to scream but in vain.
"Hi." Ella answered Samue's phone peevishly. She was angry with him for disturbing her.
"Let go of Catherine!" Samuel's stony order bewildered Ella.
How could he know what she was doing? Ella looked back at Catherine who was being beaten by several guys and felt confused.
It dawned on her when she saw the cellphone on the ground.
What a cunning woman! Had she called Samuel just before they dragged her out of the Coffee Shop?
"Never!" Ella refused Samuel willfully. Ella wouldn't leave her so easily, not after she had worked so hard to catch her.
"Ella, do not make me repeat myself!" Ella heard the sound of a car engine purring to life.
She knew Samuel was coming. There was no need to say more. She hung up the phone and slid it into her pocket.
Samuel was too angry to say anything after she hung up. He dialed another number, "Locate the position of this phone number and send the detailed address to me!"
Ella didn't stop until Catherine was almost crippled.
Catherine collapsed to the ground in agony. She struggled, but it was painful.
"Catherine, that was quite a feat. You called my husband. Does it hurt enough yet?" Ella kicked the phone to Catherine, "All right, you can call my husband again if you like. We are leaving now."
Ella proudly left the lane, accompanied by the people who had helped her ambush Catherine.
Seeing the leaving figures, Catherine bit her lower lip. Within a minute, the phone rang. It was Samuel...
"Mr. Lowell." Her voice was faint, and it unsettled him. What a silly girl Ella was! Was she going to kill Catherine?
"I am in Victory Road but I cannot see you. Where are you?" He had arrived at the Dominator. But why couldn't they see each other?
Catherine grimaced at the pain coursing through her, and repeated her location.
She held the phone tightly, and waited.
Samuel parked the car near the entrance of the Coffee Shop and then walked hurriedly to the lane nearby. The alley's entrance was obscured thus making it harder to find.
Samuel's heart sank when he saw the woman lying on the ground. Ella had gone too far this time!
He took off his suit coat and covered the trembling woman. Her clothes were in tatters.
"Did she ask them... to gang-rape you?" Samuel asked nervously as Catherine was in worse shape than Emma.
He thought Ella was petulant. But to his surprise, she was cruel...
Catherine cried hysterically as she fell into his arms, "Mr. Lowell, please help me! Ella said... She said..." His heart turned cold as he saw Catherine tremble in fear.
