Ella Bo locked the door and leaned against it. Her tears fell down endlessly.
She cried for about two minutes and wiped her eyes dry. "Ella, to marry Samuel is already what you want. Why are you still crying?
It is already a huge step between you and him to be able to stay silently next to him and watch him, isn"t it?
Why are you having bad feelings now? If Samuel didn"t get drunk that night, would he have slept with you? Would he have married you?"
...
On thinking that, she walked to the dresser, took out some tissue and wiped her tears away.
She flicked open her cellphone, the screen still showed the news page with the picture she had been looking at the whole night.
Emma looked all joyful while holding hands with handsome Samuel. They walked into a hotel room.
The smile on Samuel"s face... also looked so happy and joyful.
Has she become the third wheel?
Tears came up again and she quickly wiped it away. She closed the web page and tried not to see the picture again.
She felt a little bit tired and went to the big bed which she had been sleeping on by herself all this time. Ella fell asleep soon.
The room was silent for a few minutes.
The door was opened from the outside. The man who walked in looked at the sleeping beauty and took a light step.
He walked to his bed. His bed sheets were either black or gray.
But now, out of nowhere, it was replaced with pink color. The sheets were spread neatly across the bed and did not fit with the room decor at all.
It looked like the woman had been crying, because her eyelids were reddish. She was putting one hand on her b.u.mp.
The air conditioner was set to a low temperature, even he could sense the coldness. But the woman wore nothing but a piece of maternity dress.
He walked quietly to the bedside and spread the nicely folded pink summer sheet on her.
However, as soon as he turned around, she kicked the sheet away and clumsily changed her pose.
He had to put the sheet on her again. This time, Ella felt that someone was putting the sheet on her.
At the latter stage of her pregnancy, Ella only had light sleep. She opened her eyes to see what was going on. All she saw was a familiar back.
The door was closed in silence. Ella was now fully awak
“Who does she think she is? I won’t marry her even if she is the last woman on earth,” said Hiram Rong.
“Marry into a family with tens of billions of a.s.sets? How lucky I am! I won’t be so foolish as to break off the engagement. At worst, I can receive money as part of the divorce settlement,” said Rachel Ruan.
Their great-grandfathers made a pact about their engagement a hundred years ago...
eed very charming and beautiful. She was just as well beaming with confidence as Samuel.
This even caused Ella to feel inferior for a moment.
...
Samuel looked at the woman who was gazing at his computer. She was smiling for a moment and then frowned.
He glanced at the computer screen. There was nothing but a Logo!
What was she thinking about then? He suddenly realized that she was bit goofy.
"Ella, dinner is ready!" Melody was downstairs somehow and Ella just woke up from her thoughts.
She leaned on the sofa arm and stood up. She walked towards the bathroom of the first floor.
Samuel walked into the bathroom with her. Fortunately there were two taps.
She sensed the man standing next to her in silence. Ella was nervous although she had no idea what she was nervous about.
"Plop!" She accidentally dropped the slippery soap onto the floor.
She looked at the soap as it was gliding away and helplessly walked to the room corner.
When she was about to pick it up, a big hand pulled her arm.
Samuel picked up the soap and rinsed it under the water tap. Then he handed it over to the little woman.
Ella took over the soap. With her b.u.mp pressing against the washing basin, she had to make an effort to touch the water.
Samuel felt sorry for her when he saw her having difficulty washing hands due to the b.u.mp.
He stood behind her, pressed closely to her back and surrounded her with his arms. He pulled over her hands, spayed some water on them and washed them clean.
