Chapter 643 Amber’s Confession
"Ella, please, look at me!" Samuel held each side of her face, forcing her to look into his eyes.
Ella kept shaking her head, "No! I hate you! You are the worst! I will not look at you!"
She had began to believe that all men were bastards. This Samuel was no exception. For a moment, she was glad she had kept Jane despite Samuel's coercion.
"Okay, don't look then. Ella, it's going to be fine!" Samuel put her head on his shoulder and gradually, Ella calmed down.
When Samuel heard Ella say that she hated him, he realised that she still had not forgiven him for what had happened to her four year earlier.
He sighed softly and held her tighter.
After Ella completely relaxed, she felt weak all over her body. Her legs became numb. She would have fallen to the ground if Samuel wasn't holding her firmly.
When Samuel realised that she was weak, he lifted her and put her on the bed.
"Get some sleep." He put the palms of his hands on her forehead and rubbed the sides of her face.
Ella soon fell asleep. Samuel tiptoed away from the bed after tucking her in.
He picked up his phone and found there were a dozen of missed calls since he had put the phone on silence.
The first call he made was to the local Sheriff. "Mr. Shao, Amber has admitted that she asked someone to kidnap Ms. Ella. But she said there is someone else behind it and insists to have a meeting with you..."
Samuel was thrilled to hear the word "admitted". But then he sneered, "She should just tell you the name of the person. What is point of meeting her? Since she has confessed and five people are dead. Isn't that enough to sentence her to death?"
However, Samuel was not telling the Sheriff that Ella was nearly violated.
He knew that once Amber was behind bars, he could easily bribe the warden to give her some "special care".
"Okay, Mr. Shao, I understand."
While Ella was sleeping, the entertainment industry was a buzz with news about Ella.
The word on the street was that, popular actress Amber had kidnapped Ella out of jealousy. To cover up her crime, she had killed five people that she had hired to do the job.
At Samuel's Law Firm.
Upon seeing the news, Catherine had a triumph smile when she thought about how flawless her plan had been executed.
Making Amber her scapegoat indeed was the right thing to do.
However, she remembered the job was not complete. She needed to bribe someone in prison to
Drugged one night by her ex-boyfriend, a mysterious man took advantage of her in an ecstatic night filled with sex. To take her revenge, she married the man, and used him. "As long as I'm alive, I'm still his legal wife, while all of you are just his mistresses.”She remained adamant even when he was involved in scandals with other women...
s about to end.
Obviously, Amber cared about her parents and was responsible for her brother. That was her weakness. Samuel believed that someone was threatening her and her family.
Though Samuel was busy the whole day trying to resolve the matter, he came back to the villa before seven in the evening.
The villa was empty as he had expected. Ella was not there.
He called Ella but she hung up on him.
He did not know what to do next. He called Harry. He intended to ask Harry for the location of Ella's apartment. However, he thought that Ella knew exactly what she was doing. She had chosen to leave on her own volition. He respected her decision.
If she didn't show up in several days, he would try to find her.
In the play that Ella had been acting in, the filming of Prince Jin's Favorite Concubine was suspended. Two-thirds of its budget that had been invested by Samuel had already been consumed.
Eric was troubled by the suspension. Then Samuel's assistant Ellie called.
She informed Eric that Samuel would continue to support the series. However, that complicated the filming. It was late to audition another actress to re-shoot Amber's scenes. He hoped that Ella would be available.
Samuel required that Amber's scenes in the series be acted by another actress.
Ellie further informed Eric that the money would be soon be transferred, however, the date of re-shooting depended on Ella's availability.
After the call ended, just as Ellie had promised, Eric received information that one hundred million had been transferred to his account. The money had been transferred by Samuel.
