Chapter 36 As Long As Emma Can Give Up
The car stopped on the road leading to the old house, Samuel took the sleeping boy in Ella's arms, and helped her get out of the car.
A high-end villa community appeared in front of them. Ella thought about it for a while.
It was likely that it was a rich villa community newly developed by the SL Group. It drew much attention on Internet not long ago. It was said that an inch of land was valued as an inch of gold, so ordinary people could not afford it at all. Why did Samuel take her here? Who did they want to visit?
They stopped at the gate of a villa marked No.8. Samuel returned his boy back to Ella and laid him in her arms.
He took out the key from his pocket and opened the door.
It was a roughcast house of three floors, hundreds of square meters each floor.
"What do you think about this villa?" Samuel held Ella's shoulder in the back and kissed her on the cheek.
Did Samuel plan to buy this apartment? "It's nice. Do you want to buy it?" Their house is almost new and so she wasn't thinking about moving into another house.
"Yeah, I want to buy it for my wife and my son." He had already prosecuted the apartment which they are living in, and the Property Management had compensated him. He didn't mean to force the Property Management to compensate him. He only asked for refunds and of course he would return the house.
Feeling a little surprised, Ella asked: "Why do you want to switch our house all of sudden?" "Our current house is fine." "Is it because of that accident in the elevator?"
Samuel didn't explain anything, "If you like it, I will handle the paperwork with Harry." He had worked with Harry for so many years and he felt he deserved a special discount from him.
Actually, the developer of this building was Lola rather than Harry. Harry was just responsible for the constructing and selling of this building.
The accident happening in the elevator also scared Ella, but "This villa must be expensive!" Buying this house would surely cost him a fortune.
"A piece of cake," said Samuel causually as if it didn't matter to him. Even if the house was valued at 100 million, he would still buy it without a blink of eye.
Although he was less wealthy than Harry, he could still make it to the top 200 in Forbes.
A piece of cake? Ella raised her eyebrow, "You are just a lawyer." He was, at best, a world-renowned lawyer. How could he be so rich?
"Well? Don't look down upon lawyers!" Samuel took over the sleeping boy in her arms and kissed him on his cheek.
"Of course I am not! But how can a lawyer earn so much money?" This was the first time they talked about money. She knew that Samuel was very rich, but didn't know the exact amount of his money.
"Of course I can, I am one of the shareholders of SL Group." As a celebrity in this area, he usually didn't take on small cases unless it was worth more than a million.
But in slack season, he could do some favor for those poor men for free.
Ella immediately understood why he was so rich when she heard that he was a stakeholder of SL. Unlike other normal stakes, the daily profit generated by this share was enough to cover the annual expense of an ordinary family.
After sending Ella and their son to the villa, Samuel went directly to the SL Group.
In the office, Lola lulled Sally to sleep and put her in the bedroom while Harry was staring at Daniel.
Samuel took over Daniel from the arm of Harry and whistled at him, "Come here, how about becoming my son?" He didn't mind having two sons at all.
"Take him away! He is yours." Harry blurted out. Meanwhile, Lola was just getting out of the bedroom.
"Take what away?"
Samuel came closer to Harry and said, "Promise me one thing, otherwise I will tell your words to your wife."
Harry raised his eyebrows and looked at Samuel. Was he threatening him?
"About what?" Fearing that Samuel would really tell his wife, Harry thought he had better accept his request, whatever it might be.. 'Samuel, I won't forget this!' Samuel held Daniel in the air and played with him. Daniel kept giggling, which was a pretty warming scene. This little boy reminded Samuel of his own child.
"I want that house. Give me a 50% discount."
Harry knew which house he was referring to. It was him who gave Samuel the key of that house.
Lola looked at these two men, and then turned her eyesight to the chuckling boy.
Lola said to Harry, looking rather displeased, "You should learn from him. He knows how to play with kids."
Harry stared at Lola. How can she compare him with another man. She would not spend a comfortable night!
"I also have a son. If you don't want to raise your boy, you can consider sending him to me." said Samuel with a serious look on his face.
Harry grabbed his boy from Samuel right away. "In your dreams!" Shocked by this sudden move, the giggling boy burst out crying.
Samuel was amused. Harry did have a way of making his son cry.
Harry returned Daniel to Lola and sat back to his chair. He said to the poker-faced Samuel, "You want the house?. Then you can buy it at double the price." "Really?" Samuel pounded on the table and pointed at Harry, "Nice move!"
"Thanks for your praise!"
Samuel looked at Lola and said, "Lola, Harry said that I can take..."
"Half discount." Harry squeezed out these two words in time and upon hearing what he said, Samuel withdrew what he was trying to say and instead said,.
"I can take my wife and son here to keep you company."
The unsuspecting Lola replied, "Ok. How about tomorrow? I will call Ella later." Recently, she was busy handling the mining business and had no time to go shopping.
Samuel nodded and said a few words to Harry, "Put the house under the name of my wife." After saying those words, Samuel sauntered out of the office
'This visit was worth it. It saved more than 10 million for me.'
"Honey, Ella and Samuel seem to be on good terms. Does Samuel still contact that woman now?" Lola asked after Samuel left.
Reminded of that woman, Harry paused for a while and said. "As long as Emma can give up, this couple would stay that way." It depended on whether Emma was willing to let Samuel go.
"Will Emma let him go?" Lola knew little about Emma and didn't know what kind of person she was.
"No, Emma has business with Samuel's law office now." Harry said that with absolute certainty. If Emma had given up, she would not have come here.
Lola frowned and asked, "What should they do?" She knew how hateful the ex-girlfriend could be and didn't want Ella to have trouble with Samuel again because of that woman.
Harry walked towards her and laid his hands on her shoulders, "We are the outsiders and they need to deal with it by themselves." Just as what had happened to him and Lola, these troubles cannot be solved by others.
"Fine." What Harry said was right.
Jerry stayed with Ella for a month. But then Melody missed her grandson again. So they sent him to her house.
Ella returned to Samuel's office and helped him with his business. Actually, all she did was running some errands, and following him in meetings and courtrooms. ☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐☐
