Trapped with a Lawyer novel Chapter 100

Samuel's calm demeanor made Eason restrain himself.

"Tell me, why are you two quarreling? Why are you bullying my sister?" Eason didn't plan on letting Samuel off easy. He took a step forward and sat on Samuel's desk, facing his brother-in-law.

Samuel took another cigarette from the case and lit it.

"This is just regular banter between couples." Samuel's words made it seem like a simple interaction between couples, making Eason feel that he was overreacting.

"If only it were that simple. If you ever give my sister grief because of that Emma, I will come after you." Eason didn't want to bother them with his assumptions either.

Anna was the next person he needed to deal with.

Upon hearing Eason mention Emma, Samuel figured that Ella became difficult because of Emma.

"We'll deal with her." He vowed to both Eason and himself.

Eason pushed the card back, "Take this back. As her brother, I did what I had to do." He was giving the money, not loaning it.

"No, take it. I'm completely capable of supporting my own wife." At Samuel's insistence, Eason relented and took the card.

After talking to Samuel for a while, Eason walked out of the office with his arm around the girl he came with.

At the assistant's area outside the office

Anna stared at the file on her desk in a daze. She had been in this position for a couple of minutes. It wasn't until she heard movement from the door that she regained her consciousness.

Catching a glimpse of the couple walking out, she ducked her head and continued to mark the time and make notes on the document she was working on.

No one would have predicted that Eason would deliberately stand in front of her and say, "Miss Anna, I haven't seen you in a while. Did you keep my brother-in-law in line?" He gave Anna a leer as he held onto the woman.

Anna continued looking at the file without even raising her head.

Eason was a little upset, "Are you listening to me?" He tapped the file three times to emphasize his presence.

The two other assistants beside Anna were surprised at the scene.

"Um? I'm sorry, you are?" Anna raised her head, looking at Eason in bewilderment as if he was a stranger.

Playing games, huh! Eason let go of the woman. He lifted Anna's chin with a grin, "You didn't ask me who I was when we were in the hotel."

The three other women gave Anna a shocked look at his words.

Anna's mind went blank in an instant. She did not expect him to say that.

Gathering her wits, she pushed his hand away and said, "You must've mistaken me for someone else. I don't know you at all." Anna continued feigning ignorance.

"Miss Anna is not only gorgeous, but also very skilled. You're the last person I'd forget!" Anna's face instantly paled at Eason's crude words.

The two assistants started whispering furiously to each other. Anna took a deep breath, "Mr. Eason, would you please leave? I'm working right now." As she spoke, she lowered her head and went back to work, ignoring Eason again.

The beautiful girl beside Eason picked up on what was happening. Giving Anna a jealous glare, she turned to Eason with a coy look, "Eason, didn't you say that you would take me to the mall? Let's go."

Restraining his anger, Eason put his arm around the girl's shoulder again, "I'll take you to the biggest mall, then I'll book a hotel room for us!"

"Eason, you're so naughty!"

Anna almost puked at the girl's coquettish tone. Watching the two disappearing figures, Anna felt relieved. But it was soon followed by stifling disappointment.
