Wife is a Lawyer novel Chapter 153

Adriana took two hundred dollars out of her bag and put it on the table, got up and left.

Today was the day she reacquainted herself with Theresa, who really could do anything for money and power.

Its tactics are outrageous.

She never thought that Theresa would be able to figure out how to get her to donate her uterus to her so that Theresa could allow her to be with Peter, saying that it would be impossible for her to get pregnant and not jeopardize her position as the rightful wife.

Ridiculous, ridiculous!

"Adriana!"

She had just taken a few steps when Theresa's shout rang out behind her.

Adriana took a step and stood still, not turning around, "What else is going on?"

"You can think about it, I'm serious."

Theresa was afraid that Adriana would think that she was joking about what she said.

Adriana was silent for two seconds, turned around, and said in a cold voice, "No need to think about it."

"Really, are you saying yes?"

Theresa was ecstatic and immediately stood up, looking at her with a hopeful face, full of expectation.

"Never!"

Leaving five words behind, she left straight away.

Theresa's smile faltered and she gaped.

Originally thought, such conditions Adriana will certainly agree, did not expect the refusal so crisp.

"Is it because he likes you?"

She couldn't resist and asked.

Adriana, who had already walked away, heard Theresa's words and couldn't stop the corners of her lips from lifting, feeling sarcastic.

Is this still the Theresa she knew, loving so lowly, so lowly, without principle.

After leaving the cafe, Adriana walked alone on the road, her mind filled with the complex interplay of recent events, which was exhausting.

When we got back home, Brenda had also returned.

"Ms. Hale, you don't look well, are you sick?" Brenda was concerned.

"It's fine, okay."

Adriana leaned back on the couch, looked over at Brenda, and asked, "Is your dad better now? Has the perpetrator still not been found?"

"No."

"If we can't find the perpetrator, the case can't be accepted." The case was handed over to Vivian, and now the perpetrator cannot be found, so it is impossible to go through the legal process.

"I know."

Brenda drops her little face and hangs her head, "But there's nothing I can do about it now."

"You could get a crowdfunding campaign online that might ease your current situation." In the end, she is not related to Brenda.

Brenda has lived here for more than a month, but now she does not say anything about leaving, Adriana is also not good to talk.

Besides, her father is in the hospital and can't even pay his medical bills, so how can she bear to drive her away?

Adriana rested at home for a while and went to her new company in the afternoon.

Now, life is dark, like in the bottomless abyss, surrounded by a thick haze and miasma, so she can not see the day.

The only glimmer of hope is the new company.

"Hello, may I ask who you are looking for?"

When we arrived at the new company, the front desk beauty asked politely.

"I'm looking for Jenkins and Vivian, are they in, please?" Adriana said politely and courteously.

"Do you have an appointment?"

"I ......"

"I'm the one who should thank you. My brother is not good at business communication and cooperation, you will usually have to work a little harder than him, which you deserve, and I am very relieved to have you there."

With that, she put down the file and patted the sofa, "Come here, sit down, I have something to explain to you."

"Well, what is it?"

Adriana's sudden seriousness made Vivian a little nervous, and she sat next to her, waiting for her to speak.

"Recently, help me investigate a person, Brenden of The Alston family, and make sure to find honest, reliable and extremely competent private investigators, understand?"

"Brenden? is with you there ......" Vivian wanted to ask something, but knew there was something he shouldn't say, so he didn't continue.

"Investigate first, and I'll let you know afterwards."

"Okay, I got it."

Jingle Bell-

As the two were talking, the phone rang and Adriana took it out and looked at the caller ID on the screen, it was Peter's.

Then he sighed, "Okay, I still have some things to do, so I'll go first."

"Okay, Ms. Hale, I'll see you off."

"No, I happen to be taking a call."

Said Adriana, answering the phone, "Going to the office now?"

In the morning, Peter had already instructed that there was a dinner party this evening, and now, of course, she had to go.

"Come see me at the office."

"Got it."

Hanging up the phone, Adriana said hello to Jenkins and Vivian and left.

For the new company, she did not ask about the performance for the time being, not wanting to add pressure to Vivian and Jenkins.

Everything is a new beginning, a new start, and she certainly knows it's not easy.
