Wife is a Lawyer novel Chapter 1222

Adriana snorted lightly, just thinking that Chaya's words were too sarcastic and ridiculous.

"Thinking about it?"

She raised her eyes and shot her harsh gaze straight at Chaya, questioning her nonchalantly.

That attitude is not at all like the deference that a junior should have for an elder.

Perhaps Adriana hates them, and to sit down and have a good chat with them is already the biggest concession and tolerance, so why talk about respect?

"I talked it overwith Ruth and Archie. Promised you."

Chaya had no choice but to agree to Adriana's request after thinking about it.

But ......

"I also have a condition."

She added.

"Go ahead."

Adriana knew Chaya wouldn't say yes to her that easily.

"It is not easy to completely remove the compulsion poison from Peter's body, and you are needed to help as well. As long as you are willing to help, we can immediately help him with the poison."

Chaya said to Adriana.

Listening to her words, Adriana did not answer immediately, but inclined her head to look at Peter.

The two of you look at me and I look at you with a slight flash in their eyes.

As a couple, the two have a very tacit understanding of each other, just a look will be able to understand each other's meaning.

"What, bullying me, a junior, who doesn't know anything?"

Adriana raised an eyebrow and laughed, a smile that was full of irony, like twitter or mockery. "I don't want to beat around the bush with you guys. Either we cure honey or we leave Obren. there is no other room for negotiation. Don't tell me you want my help, I'm not a three-year-old child, not something you can cajole with just a few words."

"Adri."

Archie found Adriana firm attitude, immediately came forward to persuade, "I know you hold a grudge against us. But now we really have no choice. The reason why we asked you to help is that your grandmother's health is no longer able to support her."

"Does it matter to me."

Adriana bowed her head and played with her fingernails, and after she spoke, she raised her eyelids leisurely and said in a cold voice: "Also, I have not had a grandmother since I was a child. I am an orphan, raised by my foster mother."

She was everywhere clearing herself from the few people in front of her.

Suddenly she felt that, compared to her adoptive mother Thelma, the people in front of her, one was more ruthless than the other.

Thelma is vicious and malicious on the surface, but no matter what, she won't have the heart to kill her.

"I know you hate me and your grandmother."

Ruth hand over the chest, full of sadness to Adriana said: "these years you have suffered a lot, your grandmother and I have seen in the eyes, pain in the heart. We are sorry for you, but you should also understand a little. A lot of times, it is out of their own hands. If not, how could I, Ruth, tolerate the separation of my two children, and how could I bear to see you hurt?"

In the end, Ruth is unable to convince Adriana.

But nothing she said could shake Adriana in the slightest.

"Talking to me about pity?"

Adriana leaned back on the sofa, her arms around her chest, and took on a high-spirited stance, "Do I look like someone who would pity others."

She waved her hand, "Don't delay, say yes or no, please leave immediately."

"You ......"

Ruth never expected Adriana to be so adamant.

He wrinkled his eyebrows, looked helplessly straight at her, and looked at her in a daze for several seconds, before looking sideways at Chaya and shaking his head towards her, as if gesturing at something.

"Okay, I promise you. But you have to go back to Asco village to do it."

Eventually, they lost the battle and had to take a step back.

"I hope not to play any more tricks with me."

Adriana expressionless warning, then said: "You guys go down and wait for a while, honey and I pack and pack things."

"You now pack not on the line, must let us go down and wait for you, wait is a good half day."

Celine muttered discontentedly.
