Hearing Felix's poor Chinese, Ella, who picked up food for Samuel, put down the chopsticks immediately and answered politely, "Thank you, Felix. Emma is also a rare beautiful lady of note."
Ella said that sincerely, because Emma was indeed very beautiful. How lucky Samuel was to have such a beautiful ex-girlfriend.
Ella heard that Emma's parents divorced, and her father got remarried after he became a nouveau riche. Her mother always went to places like casinos and nightclubs, so it was indeed ironic to say that she was a lady of note.
Ella admitted that she was not generous, so she didn't object to being called narrow-minded.
Emma liked her husband, so Ella couldn't ignore Emma.
As Ella mentioned Emma suddenly, Samuel, who knew Emma well, stopped. He pinched Ella's hand under the table gently. How naughty Ella was.
He said nothing. Ella didn't know what he thought. However, Ella misunderstood Samuel's gesture and instead thought that Samuel was blaming her and defending Emma.
She felt sad, but she was more determined. Emma had made the first strike by coming over here, so she wouldn't sit and watch.
She married Samuel with great difficulty. She wouldn't let go of him no matter what difficulties she encountered later.
Emma surely knew Ella was mocking her. She stopped smiling. Her family was a taboo subject, so she was infuriated by Ella's deliberate mentioning of her family.
Before she said something, Catherine spoke first.
She wanted to scratch Ella's proud face, "Ella, didn't Samuel teach you manners?"
Samuel frowned. How could she judge his wife?
Ella, feeling embarrassed, tried to respond, but Samuel said coldly first, "Catherine, it's dinner time. If you feel bad, you can leave." The loses of Catherine as his lawyer as well as the case brought in by Emma were acceptable to Samuel.
Ho
“Let's go and register our marriage on your birthday!”
Marrying Daniel should have been her best birthday gift, but everything was ruined the moment when she caught him sleeping with another woman on the day before her birthday.
“He’s going to marry that woman! She… was my best friend!"
Ella stood up and said, "Felix, I'm sorry to have disappointed you. I'd like to toast you with a cup of tea."
They clinked glasses. Ella had some tea and sat down.
Emma drank several cups of liquor quietly. Ella saw that and felt painful in her stomach. Did Emma want to get Samuel's attention by hurting herself intentionally?
Halfway through the discussion, Emma approached Samuel with a wine cup in her hand and staggered on her way.
"Samuel, a toast to you. Thank you for handling this case." Emma's cheeks were reddish. She stood beside Samuel flirtatiously.
It was the first time that Ella saw Emma being so charming, which was in stark contrast to her usual image as a professional woman. No man would refuse her invitation, right?
Sure enough, Samuel picked up the cup in front of him and said, "My pleasure." They clinked glasses and drank.
Being drunk, Emma spoke a lot. She filled her cup with white liquor again, "Samuel, after this case is solved, I will be transferred back to the periodical office in C Country. As my ex-boyfriend, will you give me a welcome?"
The atmosphere became embarrassing again.
All the eight people in the private room now knew that Emma was Samuel's ex-girlfriend.
