Trapped with the CEO

Indeed, money is never the issue for them.

Both Harry and Samuel were wealthy, therefore they wouldn't have an issue in the future.

"Since my husband is rich, I should make use of his money and have several gigolos for fun?" Lola remarked and the room erupted in laughter. The mood was finally light and happy. Ella gave Daniel a strawberry toy that was beside him, but he threw it away with a disgusted look on his face.

Ella was surprised by the boy's sudden move and thought it to be rather cool.

"I agree" Harry mused.

"Since we are planning our children's futures, I might as well give birth to a daughter that Daniel can marry?" Ella remarked, holding Daniel tightly in her arms.

Samuel looked at Ella, an evil glint in his eye. Ella looked up at Samuel, and her body visibly sank into the sofa as if to make herself look smaller. She knew all too well what that look symbolised- "the punishment."

Lola noticed this interaction and moved closer to Ella. "What is it? Why is he looking at you like that? Will everything be okay?" She wanted to find out if Ella will be okay. She didn't like what was happening.

With Jerry in his arms, Samuel stood up and put Daniel in Lola's arms. Then he placed his son where Daniel was. He caught Ella by the elbow and prompted her to stand up.

"Thanks for taking care of my wife and son these past few days. We'll go home now." And with that, they walked towards Samuel's car.

Lola was about to object but Harry held up his hand to stop her. Lola succumbed and escorted them to their car. Standing by the main door, Harry, Lola and their children looked on as Samuel and his family entered their car. Ella looked back at Lola and said, "I'll call you tomorrow. Thank you."

"Okay! You are more than welcome to come here if you want. My door is always open." After saying those words, Lola waved them off.

Ella pulled down the window and responded. "Of course! Goodbye."

"Bye!" said Lola.

Both husbands were angry with this new development, Samuel more so than Harry.

They are annoyed by the fact that their wives are more close to each other than to them.

Half an hour later, they arrived at The Old House.

Upon seeing Ella and Jerry, Melody run to the door to welcome them home.

"Finally you have come back. Oh, how I have missed you, come here you two." Melody embraced them both. She took Jerry i

"Do you know what you did wrong? It's alright if you just wanted to own me. But you should not have helped Molly leave me!"

When Brian learns the truth, there is no chance for Hannah to win his heart.

Molly, who wants to run away from Brian, seems to be the only one to blame for Hannah's misfortune...

all and hoped they divorced as soon as possible.

As his phone rang, Samuel didn't pay attention to it. But it kept ringing. He held Ella with one arm and retrieved his phone with the other. "Hello." He finally answered the phone in a impatient voice.

Making use of this chance, Ella extricated herself from Samuel and took a couple of steps back, preparing to run again.

"A car accident?" He didn't speak loudly but Ella could hear him. Immediately, her anger dissipated.

"Call Catherine, her sister, this has nothing to do with me. It's none of my business." Their eyes locked and Ella could finally see it. His love for Emma.

Drizzle turned into heavy rain, and by fate's chance Ella's phone began to ring too.

She stared at Samuel quietly. "I'll be there." He responded to the other person on the line and hang up his phone.

Samuel walked to Ella. "Wait for me at home, I need to go to the hospital now. My... friend has had an accident and they are unable to contact any of their family members. Please Ella. Don't run away again. Wait for me."

The rain drenched their bodies. Ella reached out and gently touched Samuel's cheek. She closed the gap between them and asked

"It's Emma, right?" Samuel's expression changed to one of heartache.

For this moment, she was willing to put aside her pride and ego and look passed them. She could see Samuel hurting.

In fact, Ella knew he hid his emotions when it came to Emma. Her fears had come true.

Ella could see clear as day light, that he loved Emma. And the fact that she was in a hospital hurt him, deeply.
