My Sweet Lawyer Wife

The next day’s news, The Alston family dominated all the news pages and became the hottest topic of the day.

Also on the Twitter Trend list was Adriana.

Adriana took leave again due to bad condition.

It was Brenden who arranged for her to join the company, so no one would object to her taking time off no matter what.

Knock Knock-

Lying down to rest at home, there was a knock on the door in the living room.

Adriana got up with her tired body and opened the door of the living room, she saw Alvin standing outside the door.

She let out a sigh, even though she knew what Alvin was up to before he even spoke.

Move out of the way, “Come in.”

Alvin walks in and Adriana closes the door.

She walked over to the couch and sat down, looking at Alvin who was standing frozen in the living room, “If you have anything to say, just ask.”

Alvin had his phone in his hand and opened the news page, on the page was a picture of Brenden hugging her, “You’re with Uncle?”

His question was already expected by Adriana.

Not even in the mood to answer him.

Poured a cup of tea, “Sit down and have some tea.”

“Adri, I’m asking you a question.”

Alvin is obsessed with his problems.

Adriana’s movement of pouring tea slightly stiffened, then picked up the tea and took a sip, saying: “Senior, I have told you many times, there is no possibility between us. You have Flora, I have my own life. Do not bother each other, be friends, is not good?”

She put down her cup and added, “If it’s not good to be friends, we can be strangers.”

Raising his eyes, he surveyed the room, “Here, I don’t plan to stay, I’ll leave in a few days when I find a house.”

It’s always bad to live too close to Alvin, it can be misunderstood.

There have been so many misunderstandings, Adriana doesn’t want to disturb anyone’s life anymore.

Just want peace and quiet.

It’s just a pity that a peaceful life is always such a luxury.

“That’s the answer you gave me?”

His voice lifted a few decibels, clearly a little upset.

“So what do you want to do?”

Adriana raised her eyes, the bottom of her eyes were clear and crisp, not a single stray emotion could be seen. “Want me to say yes to you? And then be with you? Senior, can you not be so childish?”

“I’ve always liked you from school to now. In terms of time, I knew you earlier than Brenden, and in terms of character, I don’t think I’m worse than Brenden. In terms of money, I can go and inherit my father’s million dollar family fortune if you say the word. Why can’t you just give me a chance?”

Alvin was extraordinarily stubborn today, and it seemed that there was no way to convince her except for Adriana to say yes.

“Senior, love does not come first.”

Although I don’t like Brenden, although everything is just Brenden’s external drama, but she has no other choice but to cooperate.

But it’s a good thing to take this opportunity to reject Alvin.

“I like Brenden, a lot.”

“But Brenden is not a good person!”

“Senior, have you ever heard of the saying that men aren’t bad and women don’t love them? I just love Brenden being bad. I like his immodesty, I like his money, I like everything about him. Is there anything wrong with that?”

Hearing his words, Alvin’s face was white and blue for a while, so ugly!

The hand clutching the phone whitened a few points, frowning tightly, quite a bit disappointed, “Adriana, you’ve changed, become strange.”

She laughed, her voice as crisp as a silver bell, “Senior, doesn’t that sound childish to you? Born in the world of pomp and circumstance, fame and fortune are so fierce that it is impossible to remain unchanged.”

“Fame and fortune? After all, you covet The Alston family’s money?”

“Seniors, you …”

The corners of Adriana’s mouth twitched and she tried to explain something, but she heard Alvin say, “Okay, I’ll give you whatever you want! Give me time and I will prove everything!”

After saying that, Alvin turned around and left.

The moment he pulled open the door, but suddenly found a person standing outside the door.

That person was no other than Peter.

“Brother, why are you here?”

Alvin asked, the words came out of his mouth but felt a little redundant.

Glancing sideways at Adriana in the living room, she sighed, “You guys talk, I’ll go first.”

Peter did not say a word, his eyes were on Adriana from the beginning to the end.

The words Adriana just said echoed in her mind, saying she liked Brenden and how bad he was.

Adriana was equally unprepared for Peter to show up outside her house at this time.

Get up and walk to the door.

A flickering gaze met his icy eyes, “How are you … wound?”

Peter pursed his lips without saying anything.Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

“Not talking means you can’t die. I’m going to rest, so I won’t keep you.”

She took a step back and closed the door directly.

Don’t want to cross paths with Peter too much.

Yesterday, at Gisselle’s chase off meeting, she had clearly seen Peter’s attitude towards her.

Although not 100 percent sure, but at least 80 percent can be sure.

For Theresa’s sake, she must keep a distance between them and cut off all possibilities.

However, before she could close the door, a foot came in and blocked the door.

“Don’t you have anything to explain to me?”

The man stood outside the door and asked through the crack.

Adriana pressed down, trying to hurry Peter away, but the man pushed the door open and walked in.

“Peter, what are you doing?”

Adriana is a little helpless, and can not compete with Peter has the strength, can only let him barge in.

“Are you really going to marry Brenden?”

Peter looked down at Adriana, his dark pupils flashed with starbursts, his face slightly cold.

Adriana bites her lips with her teeth and looks away sideways, seemingly not daring to look him in the eye, “I just called Theresa, she’ll be right over.”

Ever since she knew what Peter thought of her, all she wanted to do was avoid him.

“Who are you kidding? I just dropped her off at the office.”

He stepped in front of her, clutching her wrist and bringing it into his arms, “Adriana, what the hell do you think? Brenden has a deep mind and is not for you to play with.”

“Good. Thanks for the reminder.”

Adriana held her breath and distanced herself from him, “I’ve got a few things to do, I’ve got to get out of here. if Mr. Alston wants to rest here for a while, you can do so, and remember to close the door for me when you leave.”

Perhaps because he did not exert too much force, so Adriana easily broke free from his restraint, retreated from his arms and hurriedly grabbed her bag and walked towards the outside.

“Wearing flip-flops when you go out to do business?”

Adriana had just walked up to him and he warned.

“Oh, that … forgot.”

She blushed slightly embarrassed and changed her shoes by the shoe cabinet.

As the person walked out the door, Peter added, “Sure you don’t need to bring your keys?” The eyes fixed on the hooks on the wall, where the car keys and the house keys were hanging.

Adriana’s pace stopped abruptly and she stood still, her back to Peter and closed her eyes, taking a deep breath and cursing herself for her foolishness.

What are you nervous about?
