Samuel threw his tie onto the couch and began unbuttoning his shirt. Ella's heart throbbed violently when she watched Samuel's moves.

Just as her heart was about to jump out of her throat, Samuel stopped at the third button.

She sighed in relief and rose from the bed. The previous posture was inappropriate.

But Samuel would not let her go. They had been separated for a long time!

Ella didn't notice him. She was readjusting her clothes. All of a sudden, Samuel lifted her up from behind and threw her on to the bed.

It took Ella some time to get over the pain, "Son of a bitch!" She gritted her teeth and cried.

When she opened her eyes and started to get up, Samuel pressed her down.

"Ella Bo, come back home with me." Samuel stared into her eyes and ordered. He couldn't live without her. He had already become used to her presence even before he could realize it.

"No I won't!"

"Come on." Tears welled in Ella's eyes when she heard his soft words.

All her grievances seemed to disappear because of his gentleness.

But she shook her head on thinking about Emma and Catherine Gu.

Nevertheless, she pulled Samuel down and kissed him.

......

At 9 o'clock in the evening

Samuel came out of the bathroom, wrapped in a bath towel. Ella got out of her bed to dress herself. She said in a hoarse voice, "Get out of here. You've already got what you want." Wasn't that what he came there for?

Samuel frowned, what did she think of him? What did she think of herself?

"Ella Bo, I came here to take you home. I've tried everything I can to soothe you. Don't go any further!" It would be really out of line for her to refuse him.

So, that was his best attitude to her? Ella sneered.

"I don't care. Get out!"

Did she just tell him to get out of here? Samuel's thumb rubbed against the corner of his mouth, and his wicked look made Ella shiver.

"You... Okay, if you don't go, I'll go!" Ella turned around hurriedly and ran to the door.

"Wait outside. I'll take you to dinner." Samuel commanded.

Ella ignored him and slammed the bedroom door shut.

At Felicia's

Samuel and Ella, one behind the other, went in.

They sat in a booth close to the window. The

"You're my wife in name only, on paper only. My heart and love will never be yours."

Edward made it clear to Daisy that she was nothing to him. They were both victims of family greed -- the marriage was arranged for them.

Six years passed. She remained quiet, gaining a reputation in the army as a tough-as-nails colonel. When she walked into his life again, Edward fell in love with this woman...

ing to pick on him, so that Samuel would hate her and let her go...

Samuel paused. He didn't know that.

"I'll be more careful next time." He answered.

But Ella didn't want to let it go. She continued, "Oh, it's okay. Mr. Shao is so focused on what Miss Gu likes and dislikes. Of course, he doesn't have time and energy to notice others." Ella's heart hurt when she said that.

Samuel smiled when he listened to her unkind words, "My, my...Is Mrs. Shao jealous?"

"Jealous——" Your ass! Ella had to swallow back the last two words since a waiter was bringing food to their table. She shot a fierce stare at Samuel. How scrupulous he was!

Then the waiter put the dishes together. "Mr. Shao, the dishes have been served. Have a nice meal!"

Samuel nodded and the waiter left the table.

He seemed to have become a regular customer here. Ella sneered, "The waiters have known you. How many women have you brought here?"

Ella had no intention to eat. She simply folded her legs elegantly and kept her left hand under the chin, taking a sip of her wine occasionally.

"I've had dinner with many people here, but most of them were my clients. If you are not happy with that, I can take you somewhere else next time." He avoided her question, not admitting that he had brought a lot of women here, nor denying it.

Then he put his cut steak in front of her and took her portion. "Let's eat!" He ordered.

She drank another glass of wine and then noticed it.
