Wife is a Lawyer novel Chapter 117

The heart beats uncontrollably faster, almost leaping out of the throat.

The tension that almost suffocated her was not because a slap had angered Peter, but because her heart was racing from his sudden and dominant kiss.

That clear emotion sprang up, causing her to panic.

But only with this method to push him far away, the farther the better.

Just because, he is the fiancé of his best friend.

"Adriana, do you want to die?!"

The man's pupils are slightly narrowed, the narrow Danfeng eyes contain a stormy and furious breath, the momentum is forced.

Adriana's body was leaning tightly against the car seat, trying to back up, but there was no room to back up.

"I ...... I'm just trying to keep you awake."

She tilted her head to look out the window with mixed feelings.

The man's angry fist slammed hard on the steering wheel, touching the horn and emitting a beep-beep-beep sound, especially clear in the silent compartment.

The two leaned back in the car seat, staring ahead, the windshield, the wipers kept turning, but still could not stop the trickle of rain on the glass.

After an unknown amount of time, Peter started the sedan and turned on the heat.

Drive, towards the direction of the hotel.

On the way, the two were silent.

It seems that ever since they met Peter, both of them were in the middle of an argument, not at all as quiet as this moment.

It is such a quiet and embarrassing situation.

"That ...... sedan I will contact someone to take care of it tomorrow." The first person to break the awkward situation was Adriana, who took the initiative to say.

"No, I'll arrange for someone to take care of it."

The man replied coldly.

"Oh."

Adriana responded, and then didn't know what to say again.

When she got back to the hotel, Adriana was the first to get out of the car and was about to close the door when suddenly something hit her and she subconsciously caught it and fixed her eyes on a folding umbrella.

"Close the door."

The man said in an indifferent tone.

Adriana mechanically closed the car door and looked at Peter through the glass window, and an indefinable feeling arose inside.

The car parked, Peter got out, heavily threw the door shut and left without looking back.

He walked quickly, taking three steps up the steps and entering the hotel lobby.

Looking at his back, Adriana followed in silently, holding her umbrella.

Back at the hotel, Adriana took a shower, changed into clean clothes, and lay down on the bed tiredly.

Not long after, a knock sounded on the door outside the room.

At this point, Adriana looked at the time and it was 2:00 am.

Who knocks on the door?

She walked to the door, pulled it open and found that the person standing in the doorway was actually Theresa, "Theresa? What's wrong, still up so late?"

Theresa stood in the doorway, but her eyes subconsciously looked toward her suite, as if looking for something.

"Come on in."

Adriana is as smart as she is, how could she not see her intentions?

So pulled open the door and frankly let Theresa in, "Come here, I happen to have something to discuss with you."

Theresa looked around the room and found no clues, then a smile surfaced on her cheeks, "Sorry to disturb you late at night. Do you know where Peter is? He came back for a visit at that moment, and never came back after he left."

Adriana shook her head and said she knew nothing, "You'll know if you give him a call."

"Can't get through."

Theresa looked dull and somewhat lost, "Peter, he doesn't seem to like me anymore."
