No Escape From Mr. CEO's Dangerous Love

Chapter 510

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. Lowell, why did he still refer to her as Ms. Leonard?

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

"So how come, Ms. Leonard, 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. Lowell. It will make me much happier." NôvelDrama.Org: text © owner.

Drake paused at her directness. After a while, he laughed and said: "Well, Mrs. Lowell, 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 did not correct her. That was exactly what he wanted.

"Fair enough. I will buy you dinner in the future then. Goodbye Ms. Leonard, oh, Mrs. Lowell." 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 received Samuel's call.

They met up and Samuel drove her towards her parents' house in his Porsche.

On their way, Ella thought of Rake and curiously asked Samuel whether his firm had a lawyer whose name was Rake.

Samuel thought for a while and shook his head. He asked her whether she knew his surname. Ella shook her head. Therefore, they dropped the topic.

It was quite late already, so they didn't bother to go to the Lowell family villa to fetch Jerry.

When they arrived at the Leonard family's villa, Jenny already made a table full of nice dishes herself.

"Father, mother!" Ella greeted her parents warmly and then ran towards the dinning table. She was truly attracted by the delicacies on the table.

She couldn't remember when was the last time she tried her mother's cooking. She hurried to have a taste!

Jenny had another plate of food in her hands when Samuel came in. "Mother, father!" Samuel greeted them warmly as well and handed Richard a gift he had bought in advance.

"Why bother buying gifts! We are happy already to have you here!" Jenny knew that Samuel was treating her daughter well these days. Her attitude towards Samuel had also changed a lot.

"My pleasure." Richard put his arm around Samuel's shoulder and they walked towards the dining room.

In the living room, Eason was sitting on the couch, skipping through the news channels on TV.

When he saw Samuel, Eason instantly cheered up: "Hey mate, I will meet Harry and Chuck tonight at nine at Storm." They all had not hung out in quite some time. Now it was good timing.

Samuel was pulled down to the couch by him. He was surprised and raised his eyebrows: "Harry? You sure a henpecked husband like him can be social this late?"

It was public knowledge now that Harry was a henpecked husband.

"He was free anyway. Last time he said that Lola was busy with the mine project and he had plenty of free time." Harry sounded like a man who was no longer in favor at that time.

The two chatted a little bit more and then Jenny came in and informed them it was time to eat.

At the dining table, Richard was in a good mood. He opened a bottle of good whiskey.

Jenny looked at Samuel as he was helping Ella get food from the plate, she said, "Samuel, Ella, don't you two want another one?" Jerry was taken good care of by Melody. Maybe it was good timing to consider a second child.

Ella did not understand the question the first time. She was all confused and asked Jenny, "Mother, what do you mean by another one?"

Samuel continued picking up food for her and reminded her: "Child."

Ella was quite shy by nature. Her face went red instantly and she exclaimed timidly, "Mother, why would you talk about this now?" Then she lowered her head and began eating her food silently.

Samuel saw her reaction and smiled. He answered on behalf of her: "Mother, father, we are working on it."

... Ella was so embarrassed that she kept her head down. She tugged at Samuel's clothes under the table.

The next second, her hand was wrapped by Samuel's palm.

Jenny was very satisfied with the answer. She happily nodded: "Good good, it is time for you to have another one. If Ella still wants to keep her job after the second child, we are more than happy to nurse the baby for you. Both your father and I are retiring soon. We should have plenty of spare time anyway." Her own son was not mature enough to settle down. She still had a son-in-law to count on.

Samuel considered her words seriously and then nodded. Then he changed the subject to Eason. "Hey mate, how is everything between you and Anna?"

Eason had remained quiet throughout as he hated his mother's nagging and was trying to avoid attention during the dinner. 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 Leonard 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 Leonard 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.
