Trapped with a Lawyer

Chapter 214 What Are You Sorry For

Ella turned and saw Samuel who looked worried. She asked the prop department staff to remove the

harness that she was in, so that she could find out what was wrong.

No sooner had she stood firmly on the ground when she felt a familiar embrace. Samuel held on to her

so closely, to the point that he was cutting off her circulation.

What was wrong with Samuel? What happened to him? She was at work, and his embrace was

inappropriate. Breathlessly, she asked, "Samuel... Uh uh uh..."

Samuel didn't respond, rather he kissed her passionately.

The crew were in shock by the display. Others clapped whilst others whistled.

"Wow! What are Mr. Shao and Ella doing?"

"My god! Samuel is such a man! He is kissing Ella in front of us!"

"Awesome! How cute."

...

Only few people have the courage to kiss in public.

Ella was so embarrassed by Samuel's display of affection.

Her mind flooded with thoughts and questions. 'What's wrong with him? Why is he kissing me here?

Why not at home? Or in a car? Something was definitely wrong.'

Ella was a public figure after all. Soon after, she noticed flashes of light and camera sounds. Photos

were being taken, and they were sure to be posted on the internet. She struggled out of the passionate

embrace.

But Samuel was reluctant to let her go. He needed to feel close to her, despite whoever was around.

When Samuel retreated from their kiss, Ella was preparing to berate him for his display of affection, but

she couldn't help but laugh when she saw the dark purple lipstick smeared across his mouth.

Her amusement puzzled Samuel, but he didn't ask for clarification, rather held her in his arms.

"Ella, I love you. I love you so much!"

His voice was not loud, but everyone in the studio could hear it.

The unexpected profession of love made Ella's heart beat fast.

"What's wrong with you? Let me go first." Everyone was watching and some were even recording what

was happening.

Samuel didn't let go of her, "Ella I am so sorry!"

Samuel's frantic and unusual behaviour really scared Ella. She raised her hand and placed it on his

forehead to check whether he had a fever. His forehead was slightly warm, but he didn't have a fever.

"Samuel, what's wrong with you? Let's go home and we can talk about it." It wasn't the right time or

place to discuss anything.

"No. I will never let you go, ever again."

Time passed on, and Samuel still didn't let go of Ella. They had halted the filming, therefore the crew

stood around and began to incite, "Kiss! Kiss!"

Ella looked at them and said, embarrassed, "Sorry. Mr. Shao is..." But Samuel didn't let her finish her

sentence.

At the request of the masses, Samuel kissed Ella again.

He felt that he couldn't kiss her enough to eradicate all the wrongs he had done to her.

"Wow! Good job! Mr. Shao!"

"There's some serious PDA going on here. I wish they'd bugger off. Please don't rub it in."

"Oh! I am so envious of Ella. Samuel is so handsome! He is my Mr. McDreamy."

"Alas! Don't mention it. Ella is my Muse. I'm not happy watching her kiss another man."

The interlude went on for more than two minutes, ending when Ella playfully slapped and hit Samuel.

"Wife, I will pick you up tonight." Samuel let go of Ella reluctantly after kissing her, one last time.

Ella was relieved, but a blush had already spread across her face.

"Samuel, what's wrong with you today?" Ella took face wipe from Eden and wiped the lipstick from his

mouth.

Then she used the same wet tissue to remove her lipstick, too.

For some reason, this made Samuel feel like they were kissing indirectly.

"I'll tell you when we get home tonight, okay?" Samuel kissed her on her forehead, then left wistfully.

He walked to the door of the studio and then turned to address Eden, "Lunch is my treat. Everyone is

welcome to go to the Sapphire Hotel."

"All right. Thank you, Mr. Shao!"

"Wow! Sapphire Hotel, I've never been there."

"Thank you, Mr. Shao."

Everyone looked very excited as they thanked Samuel for his generosity.

"You're welcome." He nodded to them and then glanced at Ella, who was re-doing her makeup to

reshoot the scene Samuel had interrupted. They exchanged amorous glances, the chemistry between

them clearly visible.

Samuel turned and left the studio.

After he left, Ella began to think about his behaviour. Did he come all the way over here to kiss and

embrace her? Just to show off their love? It didn't make sense. Well, he said he was sorry?

What had Samuel done to feel sorry for in the last 24 hours?

Ella was so curious to find out what all this was about.

But the most pertinent issue at the moment, was to ask Eden to tell everyone not to share anything on

the internet.

She didn't want the media in her business again, and therefore secretly hoped that they would agree to

deleting all the photos and videos they took. Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.

Many of them were preparing to upload, but after receiving the request from Eden, they stopped in their

tracks.

But unfortunately, it was too late, as a picture of Ella and Samuel in their passionate embrace, was

already on the internet.

A few months ago, when Ella was filming an advertisement, netizens insisted that they should remarry,

and this time it wouldn't be any different.

Everyone thought it was so sweet of him to show up that morning. He had won their respect and trust,

especially because he was going to treat them for lunch at the Sapphire Hotel.

Everyone was respectful towards Ella because of Samuel's generosity.

There were even a few girls who asked her about Samuel during their breaks.

Ella didn't mind, and told them what they wanted to know.

Filming ended a couple of minutes after 10 pm.

Ella, who was very tired, miraculously got a spurt of energy when she thought of Samuel waiting for her

outside.

In the parking lot.

Ella glanced around and immediately spotted an Audi A8 parked, not too far away.

She wrapped the coat tighter around her and headed for the car.

When he saw her walking towards him, Samuel extinguished the cigarette and emerged from the car,

covering the distance between them within a couple of seconds.

When he reached her, he extended his arms preparing to embrace and kiss her.

But Ella blocked his efforts and side-stepped him.

Samuel felt puzzled and wondered why she was refusing him.

"Samuel, tell me honestly. What have you done to be sorry for?" No matter how much she wanted to

embrace and kiss Samuel again, she was more determined to find out what was going on with Samuel,

and therefore, thwarted away his attempts at being affectionate. Samuel recalled the apology he had

given her earlier.

It was too cold outside so Ella walked over to the car where it was sure to be warmer. Ella sunk into the

seat, as the warm air embraced her.

But instead of talking, silence enveloped them. Samuel wasn't answering her question, so she

retreated her phone and ignored him. Samuel had no choice but to drive home.

In The Royal Mansion.

When Samuel parked his car in the garage, Ella was still occupied with her phone.
