Wife is a Lawyer novel Chapter 1170

Peter would like to help Edward and knows that Edward is innocent, but the matter involves his dead child and the relationship between him and his adoptive father, if not handled properly, it will ruin the Henderson Family's reputation.

Edward will make his own decision on the trade-off.

"That makes sense."

Adriana sighed as she stood beside Peter.

Peter took her hand and obediently let her sit in his arms, "Everyday you worry about other people's affairs, have you ever thought about yourself? And what about the child in your belly?"

The man's large palm rested on Adriana's abdomen, tilting his head as his doting gaze fell on her body.

"Of course the children will stay, and when Luis and Helen grow up, I want to give them two more brothers or sisters, so that they won't be too lonely when we are old."

"Adriana?"

Peter looked serious, holding her hand, and said in a serious tone, "This child, can we not?"

Discussing with her, I always felt that the child was too much for Adriana's body.

"No."

Adriana shook her head and smoothly leaned on Peter's chest, reaching out to wrap her arms around his neck, "honey, we've been through so many trials and tribulations, and now to have two children is a blessing from God that we need to cherish."

"But you are not well. I know you've always wanted two children, but have you ever thought about one thing? You have a compulsion attack in your body, are you sure you won't pass it on to your children?"

Unable to convince Adriana, Peter could only persuade her from other angles.

"I don't think so."

Adriana thought for a moment and said, "Aren't Luis and Helen's two children quite healthy?"

"But at that time the compulsion in your body did not take effect, this time is different, you can not be 'selfish' only for yourself."

His deliberate emphasis on 'selfishness' is meant to irritate Adriana and make her understand the importance of the matter.

Sure enough, after hearing his words, Adriana fell into silence.

The hand can't help but cover the stomach, the small face gradually sank down, "I really want to leave them. But ...... you said the problem ......"

The words came to a stop, and just as Adriana was torn, she suddenly thought of something and said, "I'll call and ask Ruth."

She instantly reached for her cell phone to call Ruth.

Just before the phone was dialed, the phone was taken away by Peter, "It's lunch break time, it's not good to disturb them."

Adriana looked at the time, it was 1:30 p.m., the lunch break.

"I want to drink tea, can you go make me a cup of dragon well? It's been a long time since I've made tea for me." Peter pinched Adriana's nose, his tone gentle to the bone.

"Okay, I'll go now."

Adriana smiled faintly and got up to walk towards the outside.

It wasn't until the door to the study closed and he listened to the sound of her footsteps getting further away that Peter took his cell phone and made a callto Ruth.

"Mr. Alston, what's the call about?"

The attitude of the other side was cold.

Peter said directly, "Adriana is pregnant with twins, and she is too weak to keep the children. Later on Adriana will call you guys to ask about the situation, and I hope you will be smart."

The other side is not polite to him, and Peter naturally will not be polite either.

After saying that, just hang up the phone.

Not long after, Adriana brought a box of Longjing tea up from downstairs and helped Peter make tea in the study.

The tea was made before she took her cell phone and called Ruth.

On the phone, there was little to no emotion for each other, asking directly if leaving the child would be affected by the compulsion.

The answer, naturally, is that the child cannot stay.

After learning the results, Adriana was a bit depressed and didn't talk much for the rest of the afternoon.
