Trapped with the Lawyer - Chapter 250 Catherine’s Death
His mood turned capricious. He was determined to get even with Ella first, then reward her for Jane.
“Samuel… Do you know that Catherine had died?” Chuck was worried. He gave Catherine first aid treatment the moment she was sent to his hospital. But her body had become cold. Even though he was a good doctor, there was no way for him to save her.
Keeping silent for a while, Samuel replied, “Yes. Put her in the ICU. I will handle everything as soon as possible.”
“Ok. Call me whenever necessary. Although I don’t have many resources in your field, I might be useful in some other areas.” Finishing the last step, Chuck removed his surgical mask and sat beside Samuel.
Giving Chuck a friendly pat, Samuel said, “Thank you, bro. You’ve completely healed me. No more gaping hole. Please don’t tell Ella, by the way. She’ll only get uneasy. You know how she gets, an anxious mess of a woman!”
“Right.” Chuck blinked. “Got it.”
Samuel checked his emails on his phone because he was a busy city lawyer who never lulled or gave up on a case; if he wasn’t so busy, Chuck would’ve asked him to hang out with him around the hospital, because Chuck was a truly lonely man. No-one ever hung out with Chuck.
Samuel demanded Chuck tell him what date to come back to change his dressing. When Chuck told him, Samuel said, “Great thanks, ” and left, not having looked up from his phone. Chuck sniffed to dispel his melancholy, and faced his cold computer screen again. Work was Chuck’s only companion.
At eight o’clock, Samuel, Ella and Jame arrived back at their old home.
Samuel strode in and shot into his study, burying himself in work, while Ella was comforted by family members. She cried in the arms of Melody. “Grandma, I murdered someone…”
She was afraid of the moral implications, but strangely did not regret the killing.
“Oh, that’s okay, ” said Melody stroking Ella’s hair. This stuff happens. We’ll help you out if you go to court.”
Wiping away her tears, Ella replied through clenched teeth, “I’m fine. If I could do it all over again, I would still kill Catherine.”
“I understand.” Catherine deserved to die. She would have killed Ella if not.
“If I go to pris

the man threw it into a nearby dustbin.
Putting her arms around his waist, Ella closed her eyes to feel his warmth.
Keeping Ella’s chin up with his right hand, Samuel lowered his head to kiss her. A light smell of tobacco spread through their mouths.
Samuel suddenly pushed Ella up against the door. The two of them thus nearly became one body.
They kissed for a while.
Samuel finally freed Ella’s flushed face and said, “Let’s go back to the villa.”
“Ok.”
The Royal Mansion.
Their kids were still in the old house. The rest of the servants would be there the day after tomorrow. There were only two of them there today.
It was dark. Ella was changing her shoes when Samuel hugged her from behind.
After putting on her slipper, Samuel pushed her up against the door, “Ella, I’ve got a bone to pick with you.”
“What? What are you talking about? I have no idea.”
“Well, you lied to me about Jane.” He was angry to be the last one to know the truth about Jane, and he couldn’t simply let it go like that. All this annoyance was started by Ella.
“Uh… It’s not my fault, Samuel. I told you before. But you didn’t believe it at that time.” Ella felt wronged.
Samuel recalled the night with Ella. “Yes. You know the father of Jane.”
“Who is he?”
“It’s you.”
……
Samuel was speechless.
“But you told me that Jane’s father was dead, Ella.”
Ella replied diffidently, “I said so because you made me unhappy that day.”
