Pursing her lips for a second, Ella listened to Samuel and tied his tie for him obediently.
"Samuel, you are an adult. Don't you feel ashad to ask soone else to do such a simple thing for you?" Walking closer to his parents, Jerry said sarcastically.
Ignoring Jerry, Samuel just looked at Ella with love.
Ella couldn't bear Samuel's attitude, "Samuel, Jerry is just a kid. Don't be so an to him. You are making him sad."
Samuel then raised his eyebrows to look at Jerry, but he didn't notice any sign of sadness.

"There is a hot topic article on the internet about Joseph and I. I don't know where this rumor ca from but apparently and Joseph are having an affair. Trust we aren't. Even if you don't believe , you should believe that Joseph would never do that to you."
"Hold the line Ella." Lilian responded, her voice clearly shaking.
Less than a minute later, Lillian spoke again. "I've seen it. Fake news. Those are just rumors. No, Ella. I trust you, even more than I trust Joseph."
"What? Why don't you trust him?" Ella was dumbfounded.
"How can I trust a man that easily? He hasn't done anything distrustful, yet, but it doesn't an he wouldn't in the future. But things are different when it cos to won, especially you, my best friend." She had heard many rumors about Joseph and she had grown immune to this sort of things.
'An affair between Joseph and Ella? Whoever started this rumor is stupid. Ella is still with Samuel. Even if she is divorced, She wouldn't have targeted any of her friends' n.' Lillian breathed easy.
