No Escape From Mr. CEO's Dangerous Love
Chapter 483

Chapter 483

In the flower garden.

Melody took out a wet tissue for Ella. "Wipe your sweat with this. Pregnant women cannot tolerate hotweather." While saying those words, she fetched out a wet tissue from a melon tray.

"Grandma, thanks for the watermelon." The two of them stayed in the old house, while the servantswere out to buy vegetables. Ella felt much better after wiping her sweat off her cheeks.

Melody made a gesture to show didn't mind and said, "It is very easy to cut up a watermelon. Thewatermelon is so sweet!"

Ella responded with a nod of approval and placed the remaining peel down. When she was ready topick up another slice, she heard somebody remark, "Don't you know that pregnant women shouldn'teat too much watermelon?"

Ella and her grandma turned around at the same time. They saw Samuel at the door in a white T-shirt.

At this moment, he, with a gloomy face, was staring at Ella who was subconsciously protecting herstomach.

Being pleasantly surprised for a while, Ella was scared into putting the melon in her hands back on thetray immediately.

Melody made a long face for a minute. With a hint of sarcasm in her voice, Melody said, "I even forgot Ihave a grandson, too!"

Poor Ella! Though Samuel rarely kept her company, she never complained.

Worse, Samuel had the nerve to appear on the entertainment news with that woman, Emma!

The number of people who wanted to dig up Samuel's personal business increased, as his fame rose.Some news was unexpectedly exposed in public yesterday.

In particular, the provoking headline – "Golden Layer has an affair with Editor-in-Chief Emma, when hehas a pregnant wife at home."

Ella got so upset upon receiving that news, that Melody was at a loss for how to comfort her.

Even so, Ella still felt pleasantly surprise the moment she saw Samuel today.

The fact that she didn't get angry over Samuel's inappropriate behavior was proof of how much hergranddaughter-in-law loved her grandson. Melody thought to herself.

"Grandma!" Samuel greeted Melody respectfully.

Melody pulled a face and ignored his arrival. Somewhat embarrassed, Ella hurried to say, "Grandma,don't be offended, since Samuel is back."

Melody glared at Ella after hearing what she just said, "Why do you call him Samuel? You should stilladdress him as 'husband', even in my presence."

Err......Err.... The stylish grandma made Ella purse her lips into a smile.

The weather didn't seem to be so stifling after Samuel saw the smile of the woman with rose cheeks.

"Grandma, let's head in. It is a bit hot here." Ella supported Melody by her arms, and they went towardthe house.

Melody glanced at Samuel. She then patted Ella's hands, "Ella, don't concern yourself with someonewho doesn't consider you worth his time and don't cry sadly at night on your own! You are nowresponsible for your own health and your baby."

How did grandma know? Embarrassed, Ella quickly denied with a flush face, "No, no, no.......I didn'tcry. Grandma, I'm really happy being with you and having you spoil me!" Fearing that the man behindher might generate some strange ideas, she sped up the pace.

Perhaps her pregnancy caused her to become a little sentimental. She couldn't help shedding tears onthe nights she lay on the large bed all alone.

Ella muttered in her mind, 'How did grandma know that? Did I cry rather loudly?'

Melody sighed to herself as she watched her granddaughter-in-law. She knew that her son, daughter-in-law and grandson all liked Emma. She prayed that everything would be fine after Ella gave birth.

Samuel genuinely felt uncomfortable, since he was completely oblivious of how the two supported eachother.

However, Samuel was troubled by what grandma just said. 'Why would that woman cry at night? Forhis sake? Shouldn't she know that she was bound to spend those nights alone? So was she hoping

that he'd stay with her?'

Ella felt much better after entering the air-conditioned living room.

After she helped grandma sit on the sofa, she spotted the approaching shadow in the doorway, andthen she gladly walked into kitchen to open the freezer.

She washed some fruits, brought them over and put them down in front of Samuel, who sat opposite ofgrandma, "Samuel, eat some fruit." She awkwardly bent down and then stood up again, obviouslymaking an enormous effort.

Melody grinned, "Ella, ever since my grandson returned, you have been focusing on him. What aboutme?" See, there was no fruit for her.

In this moment, being observed by Samuel's eyes, Ella felt somewhat shy and her face turned red,"Grandma, I'll peel you some dried fruit." Suddenly she took a tray with some dried fruit in sheer panic,and then expertly took up a nutcracker to crush the walnuts for Melody.

Samuel looked at them indifferently and thought: Is she trying to cater to him?

"Grandma, here you are." Her sweet voice interrupted his thinking.

While taking the walnut pulp and putting it in her mouth, Melody cast a glance at her grandson who wasstaring at Ella.

"Samuel, are you leaving?" A question was asked seemingly inadvertently by Melody when she lookedat the walnut pulp in her hands.

He will leave later? After hearing what Melody said, a flash of disappointment appeared in her eyes,and the smile on her face also faded away.

Samuel leaned on the sofa, feeling that there was a little smile on that woman's face. It was too hardfor him to leave this place while being aware of her state of sudden change.

He had just finished a lawsuit. Now he just came back to see his grandma. Emma was still waiting forhim, so he would leave soon.

"You should go right now!" Her grandson's silence made Melody a little angry.

The smile on the lips of Ella was no longer hooked, and the movements of her hands started to be alittle flustered.

"Ah!" A sharp cry came out owing to the pain from her hand. Ella did not focus on what she was doing,and she gripped her fingers with a walnut clip.

Melody heard the scream of Ella and quickly tried to figure out what happened. Surprisingly, theopposite Samuel was even faster than her.

He sat up and reached Ella in just two steps, clutching her hand.

Looking at her red finger, Samuel was angry and his tone became very blunt. "How stupid are you?How can you hurt yourself just by crushing walnuts!"

Ella had been thinking about rubbing it, but when Samuel reprimanded her, her eyes became moist.

He had never done this before. When everyone was together, Samuel was always happy andoccasionally very funny.

But since they were together, Samuel had always been serious in front of her. Even now he was ascold as an ice.

She married him, depriving him of his love. Wasn't he also suffering?

"I'm... I'm sorry." She pulled her hand from his hand, stood up awkwardly from the stool and wentupstairs.

'Sorry? Why did she apologize?'

Samuel began to wonder if he treated her too seriously when he looked at the awkward figure of thewoman upstairs.

In retrospect, it was he who took advantage of her.

"Samuel, get out! Don't come to see me again!" Melody looked at the figure of Ella upstairs. She wasvery upset. She wore a distraught look and slammed her hand down on the table. She wanted to kickSamuel out.

Her grandmother wore a straight face, so Samuel knew that she was truly angry. In reaction, hescratched his black hair with irritation.

"I didn't say that I'm going to leave this evening!" Then he sat back on the couch. Melody's face lookedradiant after she heard that.
