Wife is a Lawyer novel Chapter 188

"Ms. Hale, are you trying to get the old man to stand in the doorway and talk to you?"

The maid on the side spoke up at the right time.

Adriana came to her senses and nodded, "Oh, oh, come on in."

Open the door of the room and make a gesture of invitation for the two to go in first.

The two men entered the room where Old Mr. Alston was sitting on the sofa while Old Mr. Alston's personal maid was standing by.

Adriana made a cup of tea for Old Mr. Alston, "I only have West Lake Longjing at home, so Old Mr. Alston will have to settle for it."

Old Mr. Alston pestled his cane, resting his hands on the handle, glanced at the cup of tea, and then at her foot, "You hurt your foot badly?"

"Fine, fine." She smiled sardonically, "I wonder what Old Mr. Alston's visit today is about?"

Old Mr. Alston's eyebrows wrinkled, holding a tealight and taking a sip of tea, the calm and relaxed look seems to deliberately oppress Adriana with its own aura.

However, Adriana, who had been through the storm, was able to cope with him despite her fears.

"Old Mr. Alston has something to say."

Adriana stood across from him with a nonchalant, unassuming attitude

But as the head of the family, she was standing and Old Mr. Alston was sitting, to the point where she was a bit embarrassed by the way she was taking over.

Old Mr. Alston's hand holding the tealight stalled slightly and slowly put down the cup, his gaze glanced around the living room and asked, "Where is Yan girl?"

So, Old Mr. Alston is here to ask for her?

Suddenly, Adriana's heart plummeted and a bad feeling came over her.

"She's not here. old Mr. Alston is here for Helen today?" Adriana asked bluntly.

What comes around always comes around.

Today in the hospital, she considered this matter.

How could someone from The Alston family let their heir wander off when Peter had spoken in public about her relationship with him?

But, this time, no matter what, she had to keep Helen.

And, at all costs.

"Girl, I don't care how things work out between you and Peter, but Helen is my The Hale family's child ......"

Without waiting for Old Mr. Alston to say anything, Adriana said directly, "But she is also my child, her last name is Mu, and her name is Helen."

The attitude is firm and slightly emotional.

It was as if they were worried about Old Mr. Alston coming over and grabbing someone.

Old Mr. Alston raised one eyebrow and looked at her with deep eyes, "You are right. Only, if there was no Peter, where did you get the child? As far as I know, Peter paid you two million dollars for your services back then, did you break the contract?"

"Old Mr. Alston, you're not making sense when you say that. Even though he owes the contract, the contract only says to have the children, it doesn't say that the twins have to be both his. Not to mention that Helen suffocated after birth and it was you The Alston family who abandoned her, not me. So to come over here now and say this isn't ...... quite heartbreaking."

Adriana tried to control her emotions and tried to avoid a head-on confrontation between herself and Old Mr. Alston.

At the same time, I deeply sympathize with myself, why is she the one who suffers whenever something happens?

God is still so unfair.

"Hmm."

Old Mr. Alston nodded, his expression changed slightly, and continued to drink his tea with his head down.

See his tea bottom, Adriana again obediently for him to refill the tea, elegant demeanor, respectful attitude, so people can not be faulted.

"I know it's indeed hard for you to bring up a child by yourself as a woman. Tell me, how much pay do you want?"
