Wife is a Lawyer novel Chapter 2

She had no choice but to keep struggling.

“Hang in there! Where is your husband? Why doesn’t he stay by your side? It’s twins! He doesn’t even care about it?” the doctor asked anxiously.

Helpless tear went down her cheek. Clenching her own fists, she gritted her teeth and kept on struggling.

Husband?

She didn’t even know his name. Nor had she seen his face. She had no idea where he was at this moment. So ridiculous!

“Ahh, doc, I can’t hang on…” exhausted, Adriana straightened up her body a bit. But soon, she flopped on the bed weakly.

The ten-hour delivery even disabled her voice.

“Keep on! We can see the baby’s head. Come on!” the doctor urged anxiously.

Her face went ghastly pale at this moment. Soon, she passed out.

The doctor rushed out of the room and asked a man standing outside, “Sir, are you her husband?”

Adriana’s delivery lasted till midnight. So she was the only one left inside the delivery room.

“Yes.” Peter frowned and nodded to answer.

“What’s wrong with you? She has been suffering a tough labor but you still insist on eutocia? The baby got stuck midway! Both your wife and the baby were struggling to breathe smoothly. Now you need to make a choice between her and the baby.”

Peter cast a cold glimpse at Ben to question, “Why don’t you tell me about it?”

“It’s the request of Ms. Adriana.” Ben replied.

Peter put on a serious expression. He soon signed his name on the paper, “Save her!”

Though it was just a deal, he deemed it unfair to risk her life.

“Got it!” the doctor rushed into the room.

Standing still, Peter continued after a short pause, “Ben, give her two million when she wakes up. And let her go.”

After that, Peter turned around to leave.

Half an hour later, the door was opened.

Doctor ran over with a smile, “Congratulation! Adriana is fine…but…we lost the first baby. It’s a girl. She got choked after being stuck for hours and then she died. But lucky enough, we save the other one. It’s a boy.”

Ben looked quite excited. He immediately dialed Peter’s number.

“Sir, your son is saved!”

…

Four years later, an airplane from LA to Waverly landed.

Inside the plane, Adriana looked outside the window, with mixed feelings surging up in her heart.

Now she was back again!

Among a group of business elites, Adriana, in white chiffon blouse, black loose pants and slinky suit jacket decorated with stripes, was striding forward on her high heels with curly long hair draping over her shoulders.

Ａ pair of silver sunglasses hung on her pretty face. Her red lips seemed to be burning with charm. She appeared alluring among the crowd.

Everyone around couldn’t help looking at her. Some of them started to snap some pictures of this eye-catching lady with their phones.

“The engagement ceremony between Theresa Lindsay and Perter Alston, the president of Alston Group, is now running close to us in Hilton Hotel…” a hostess was broadcasting news on TV.

At this moment, Adriana’s phone started buzzing.
