Trapped with the CEO

To be honest, Drake's smile was quite sweet. But Ella did not like him.

She heard his compliments but was not pleased at all. She politely replied: "Thanks. I met someone I really like. The idea of getting married with him just came naturally." Samuel was the only man who made her feel the impulse to tie the knot.

"Someone you really like? You like Samuel?" His direct question offended Ella.

But she still replied with a forced smile. "Yes. I like him very much." He knew her husband was Mr. Shao, why did he still refer to her as Ms. Bo?

Her smile seemed dazzling to him. Drake nodded along but an evil thought just came across his mind.

"So how come, Ms. Bo, you are all alone here?" He knew Samuel was now occupied in a meeting but he asked her on purpose.

The way he addressed her really upset Ella. She directly said to him, "If you can, please call me Mrs. Shao. It will make me much happier."

Drake paused at her directness. After a while, he laughed and said: "Well, Mrs. Shao, have you had dinner already? How about me buying you a meal?"

"We don't know each other that well." She did not have the habit of hanging out with some strangers, so she rejected him straightaway.

"Oh, excuse me, allow me to introduce myself to you. My name is Drake. I am a lawyer here as well." He deliberately said his name vaguely.

Ella took it as Rake? She thought for a moment. It did ring a bell somehow. It was quite normal, as Samuel's law firm was big-sized and they had a strong team of lawyers.

It was not possible for her to remember all their names.

"Sorry, Rake, I need to go now as I still have something to do this evening." She didn't know she heard it wrong.

Drake Shao did not correct her. That was exactly what he wanted.

"Fair enough. I will buy you dinner in the future then. Goodbye Ms. Bo, oh, Mrs. Shao." He didn't want to push her.

He was such a nuisance. He knew she was a married woman and yet he offered to buy her a meal!

"Good bye." Ella did not want to talk to him anymore. She turned around and started walking in the opposite direction.

Drake stared at her back, overwhelmed by an evil idea.

Ella had been waiting by the road for more than half an hour when she finally re

"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...

er. However, Samuel just drew attention to him.

"Exactly Eason! Can you be mature? Father and mother worry about you." Ella took great pleasure in Eason's misfortune and teased him.

Eason gave them a stern look and denied: "Who is Anna? I don't think I know anyone named Anna." Ella was actually admiring Eason's skills of telling lies.

"Eason, you are grown-up! I am gonna give you three months to get married. This is your final chance, otherwise you will be excluded from the Bo family!" Jenny was genuinely upset. Eason was already in his thirties, but still single. When would she have more grandsons?

Eason was shocked at the ultimatum from Jenny and took a deep breath. "Mother, seriously? Are you kidding me? I am your son! Just because I am not married, you're gonna exclude me from the Bo family?

Within three months?" Where possibly could he find a daughter-in-law for her?

Jenny ignored his protest as she had asked him to find a wife countless times! If she did not push him, he would always choose to just play the field.

"We are shamed by your news on those tabloids. They are always about you dating young models and other internet celebrities." Richard opened his mouth to express his dissatisfaction. His son was such a trouble maker. Not like Ella, who was sweet and kind. He was very happy to see her in a healthy marriage and have her own child.

Ella lowered her head to hide her giggles. Samuel saw her happy face and somehow had a good mood as well.
