Trapped with the CEO

Anna looked at Ella and remained speechless. Sister-in-laws? An abandonment crime? Abandonment referred to the crime relating to parents abandoning their children or children abandoning their parents or by not supporting them in any way.

Eason was at worst a rapist or a man who cheated on women's feelings.

But the goal she had in mind had now been accomplished, and she would leave the rest up to Ella.

Anna heard Ella get on the phone and exaggerating: "Dad! I've got something important to tell you!" After her phone call, she came back to the assistants' office.

Five Minutes Later

Ella grasped her phone in her hand and was running to Anna: "Ann! Ann! Oh! No! Sister! Sister!" Her disturbed voice made her words sound incoherent.

She took Anna by her hand and pulled her to a more private, discreet place where they could talk: "Mom said that dad had booked a plane ticket and that if you are pregnant, you must come to our home. My parents will be fully responsible for you. Oh! No! My brother will take this responsibility upon him!"

She was going to have a sister-in-law! Ella was so happy now!

Pregnant? An odd grimace struck on Anna. How could she be pregnant? She wasn't a child anymore, and she had definitely known how to take her morning after pills.

Anna had just wanted Eason to give her a reason for his leave. She wanted to ask why he was avoiding her now, and more than this, she wanted to know why he was avoiding her now.

She never thought of making Eason responsible for any of this, and now she just nodded absently to Ella's excited words.

Jenny visited their company in the afternoon.

Samuel was not there, and Ella was in the office, busy printing some documents for him.

When her her mother was downstairs, she ran down the stairs to pick her up.

Ella settled Jenny into the office, went out, and called Anna in.

Anna looked confused when she saw the lady sitting in sofa, and even frightened when Jenny started to talk with her.

"Mom finally found you, my dear daughter!" She had been looking for her daughter-in-law for more than 30 years! Jenny was so excited that she almost cried out when she took Anna's hands, who was so pretty and capable in her eyes now.

Her son was finally getting married, and she could now finally be relieved of the burden of an unwed son.

Er......r.... Ella and Anna watched the scene with

Drugged one night by her ex-boyfriend, a mysterious man took advantage of her in an ecstatic night filled with sex. To take her revenge, she married the man, and used him. "As long as I'm alive, I'm still his legal wife, while all of you are just his mistresses.”She remained adamant even when he was involved in scandals with other women...

remembered now, Ella had told him that she would visit the old house today.

Samuel still felt a little dizzy. He had a brief wash in the bathroom to freshen up and then tried calling the old house.

He felt a little uneasy since he didn't know where she was.

Mrs. Qi answered the phone. Samuel was relieved when she told him that Ella was playing with their kid upstairs.

His naughty girl knew exactly how to make him worry. She didn't even tell him when and where she left.

Or... did he sleep too tight, too tight that she couldn't wake him up?

Samuel was so busy with the Changyue case that he again didn't notice that there was something wrong with Ella.

It was only until three days later, when he returned to the empty apartment in the middle of the night, that Samuel started missing her presence. He then took out his cellphone and tried calling Ella several times. No answer.

By then realized something was wrong and started asking himself why Ella hadn't come back home for the past three days. She did not go to the company, either. But she knew that he was still working on the Changyue case these days, and she seemed to be keen on keeping Emma away from him.

Why didn't she do anything all this time? She even allowed Emma to be with him for three whole days. Samuel wasn't that stupid to think that Ella had started to trust him.

He remembered sending her several WeChat messages in the last three days, but got no reply whatsoever. He thought that there must definitely be something wrong with Ella, and by now she was probably more than furious at him.
