Wife is a Lawyer novel Chapter 204

"Adri?"

Peter called out, but Adriana's head did not return, simply ignored.

He looked back, his sword eyebrows wrinkled, his gaze swept over the two, and said in a cold voice: "Mom, I say again, Adri is Luis' mother. For this reason, I will not let anyone bully her. If you are willing to accept it, then it is best. If you are not willing, you can leave Orchard House."

Peter does not hate his mother, but over the many years she has become more snobbish under the influence of her family and sees only money in her eyes.

Power to the top!

So how could a Cinderella like Adriana be accepted into The Alston family?

In the past, he also struggled for the family to prosper, until he met Adriana, he realized that there is one more beautiful thing beyond money and power ...... love!

"You ...... you kid say it again!"

Mrs. Alston slammed the table, "I gave birth to you, and now you're turning against me for an outsider? Don't forget who gave you what you have now!"

"Auntie, don't get angry, don't get angry."

It was Theresa's real sense of Mrs. Alston's anger, and she immediately reassured her, "Peter is also lost in the moment, don't be angry. Maybe it will be fine after this excitement has passed."

"Hmph, don't you speak for him! He, a heartless thing, has dumped you, and you're still worried about him? To say the least, you're a fool."

Mrs. Alston poked Theresa's head with the meaning of a rotten wood that cannot be carved, "Grow a heart. Can't you keep an eye on Peter for me?"

"Auntie, I ...... try my best." Theresa beamed, a face of aggression on the surface, the heart does not know how happy.

Peter grunted coldly and turned to walk out of the bedroom.

Downstairs, Adriana found a band-aid and dressed the wound, then ordered the maids to bring Mrs. Alston a lunch, and instructed them to bring one to Sloane as well.

I wanted to do it myself, but Mrs. Alston and Sloane had too much prejudice against her, so it was useless to make a show of goodwill even now.

Instead of forbidding a good intention to be questioned, it makes them loathe her presence even more.

"Let's see."

Adriana was sitting alone in the living room staring when Peter came over and grabbed her hand, "Does it hurt?"

He unraveled the band-aid and looked at the foot-long scratch on it, which was one centimeter long and deep.

I can't help but mutter, "Why aren't you careful at all?"

"Gee, not so much na, it's okay."

His cold face suddenly wrinkled bar, all a look of heartache to the extreme, fell in the eyes of Adriana, both funny and touched.

Since childhood, she has not enjoyed much care and affection from others, in addition to her brother Jenkins care for her, no one cares so much about her feelings.

So much so that Peter's nervousness went so far that Adriana got red eyes.

The man raised his eyes and bumped into her eyes that were red with tears, a little anxious, "Does it hurt?"

"It doesn't hurt!"

Adriana turned her head away, not daring to look directly at Peter.

It's so humiliating, when did it get so emotional?

A small gesture just, actually let her so moved, really ...... convinced.

"So what's going on with you?"

Peter asked so, suddenly understood what, for her to close the band-aid, smoothly took her in the arms, "I know let you suffer. So, let's go to Rootpaw villa, it's very clean there."

"No, no. It's fine here."

Adriana stayed for a purpose, and if she leaves Orchard House now, what's the point of staying.

"But ......"

"Nothing but, I'm really fine. But school starts tomorrow for Helen and Luis, so I'd better get to work."

After the children go to school, Peter must also go to the company busy, she stays at home to face Sloane, Mrs. Alston and Theresa three women, I am afraid that really will fight.
