Wife is a Lawyer novel Chapter 228

Adriana made a cup of tea for Mrs. Alston, brought it over and placed it in front of her, "Auntie, have some water."

"What are you doing here?" Mrs. Alston looked away and quickly dried the tears from her eyes, as if she didn't want Adriana to see her aggrieved side.

And then, pretending to be serious and cold.

Adriana sat across from her and said in a gentle tone: "Auntie, do you know? In fact, I have been without a father and mother since I was a child, and I especially long for fatherly and motherly love. When I was young, I was taken in by my foster mother, but ...... she was not very good-natured and was very mean to me, but even so, I was looking forward to her treating me like other mothers do to their own children and giving me a little more warmth. As a result, it didn't."

"That year, my brother had a terminal illness and needed a lot of money to cure it. My adoptive mother had no money, but saw that I was young and beautiful, so she ruthlessly sent me to sit in a bar. The stage. I did not go, she beat me, forcing me to go over. It is very coincidental that the bar I stayed for a few days did not have the courage to do that kind of thing, as a result, one day a person, see my good looks, asked me if I was interested in surrogacy, the pay is generous.

I needed the money badly, so I agreed.

Then there were twins, the day of delivery was difficult, after Luis was born, Helen never came out and finally died in the womb.

The men Peter sent over took Luis and left while I was in a coma in the hospital for a day and a night, and when I woke up the paramedics told me Helen had miraculously survived." Adriana sounded with a hint of gratitude.

"Since then, I took Helen abroad and wanted to go as far as I could. While taking care of my children, I started my own business to get to where I am today.

It's just that who would have known that Theresa's fiancé was the baby's father, and by coincidence, it led to the current situation."

She spread her hands with a helpless face, "I never wanted to take away someone's good, even after knowing Peter's feelings for me, I repeatedly evaded it. After that, it was Brenden who kept taking advantage of Helen. I had no idea of Helen's relationship with Peter, so for the sake of my daughter, I had to play along with him. When Peter went to catch Brenden, I took Helen with me and tried to leave, changing cars, not even daring to take the bus because I needed an ID card and I didn't want to be chased by Peter. But even so, he was still found.

The day I left, I felt my child's desperation and sadness, my own feelings for Peter, and his true feelings for me. So, I am willing to try once. If ...... if in the end, you still can't accept me, I just ask you to let me take Helen and leave. As long as you are willing to help me block Peter's pursuit, I am willing to never appear again."

Mrs. Alston listened to Adriana's words and was somewhat moved, looking at her with a puzzled expression, "Is it true what you say?"

Adriana smiled helplessly, "I love money, but now I'm perfectly capable of earning it, I have my own company, I can support myself and Helen, no problem at all. Why do I have to marry into The Alston family when my life has been so bad since I met Peter? But for his sake, I was willing to try and adapt.

Of course, if at the end of the day, it still doesn't fit in, then maybe it's true that we are destined for each other. But Helen is my lifeblood, no one can snatch it from me. Except, I die!"

Adriana's words, all from the bottom of her heart, are a precautionary shot to Mrs. Alston, telling her that if she ever had to leave, she would take Helen with her.

Mrs. Alston's brow wrinkled, tugged at her lips, seemed unsure of what to say, and closed her mouth again.

"I envy you and Peter and Sloane, your family together, happy and happy, unlike me, an orphan, never get these affection, that's why I envy. I also know that The Alston family is a large and powerful family, my existence may not bring you any benefits, but I will do my best to create benefits for you The Alston family." Adriana said seriously.

This, by and large, is the only thing Adriana can do.

From the time she chose to come back with Peter, she intended to come clean with Mrs. Alston and say everything without being misunderstood by Mrs. Alston.

"Heh, with you? You are too high on yourself."

She found Adriana's remark a bit glib and arrogant.

"Can I, that remains to be seen if you give me that chance, Auntie. Isn't it?" Adriana slowly hung her head, looked at the floor and sighed, "What I like is a simple, peaceful life. Once you enter a luxurious family, it's not what I want at all. You should know that some people like money, but it doesn't mean that everyone likes it. I, on the other hand, am the kind of person who is happy with what I have."

As a member of The Alston family, Mrs. Alston has been in and out of high society and has seen a lot of people, and she prides herself on being a good judge of people.
