Wife is a Lawyer novel Chapter 3

“What? A son?”

“Hey, stop!” Theresa gestured to hush, “stop yelling!”

“Theresa, what’s wrong with you? Are you gonna be a stepmom?” Adriana was shocked to hear that.

“Hey, listen, he knew I was infertile a few years ago. So he adopted a son.”

Hearing that, Adriana breathed a sigh of relief, “Come on, you are scaring me to death! But at least he is nice to you. Girl, you must be blessed!”

Adriana somehow felt a bit jealous.

“Hey, you look so happy. What are you talking about?”

A husky voice sounded at this moment.

“Peter, come over here. Let me introduce my best friend to you, Adriana Hale. I bet you’ve heard her name from me for a thousand times.” Theresa wrapped her arms around his and her face leaned against his shoulder, on which a smile appeared.

“Nice to meet you, Mr. Alston.”

Adriana raised her head to look at this man in sapphire tailor-made suit.

He stood upright, with a serious but charming-looking face. His blue eyes glowed with glamor.

Wherever he stood, he looked like a Prince Charming but also crowned to be the king of all, looking down from above with his proud face.

Peter frowned while looking at Adriana, “Ms. Alston, you seem a bit familiar to me.”

“Mr. Alston, you must be mistaken. I just return from LA.” Adriana smiled to reply.

“Well, perhaps it was because I always showed you her pictures before.” Theresa appeared a bit distraught. So she hurried to explained that Adriana had been staying abroad for all these years. It was impossible that they met before.

Adriana then stayed in the hotel till she finished dinner with Theresa.

“Mr. Alston, Theresa got really drunk. Please take her home.”

Actually, both Adriana and Theresa had been drinking during the dinner tonight. But Adriana had been accustomed to drinking after all these years of social experience. So she still stayed sober.

Peter walked over and put down the glass of wine. He held up Theresa into his arms, “Girl, you are so drunk…Ms. Hale, I am sorry I gotta go.”

Then he turned around to leave.

“Mr. Alston.” Adriana suddenly stopped him.

Peter looked back at her in silence.

Adriana walked over with her eyes fixed on Theresa. She uttered with a worried face, “Please be nice to her. Theresa is a good girl. She deserves your love.”

Peter nodded and left.

He walked out of the hotel and drove Theresa back to the villa.

He put her onto the bed, “Have a sleep. I will tell my servant to get you changed.”

“Peter…Peter…don’t leave me…” Theresa grabbed his hand. Peter stumbled down onto the bed because of that.

Driven by drunkenness, she took the chance to mount on him, “Peter…we are engaged…I…I wanna…” while speaking, she leaned forward to kiss him.

Frowning, Peter felt like struggling. But indeed, they had been engaged. He tried to convince himself to do as Theresa wished. So he stayed still.

However, when her lips were about to touch his, Peter suddenly struggled up and pinned her down, “Theresa, time to sleep.”

He stood up and left. As soon as he closed the door, he punched hard on the wall and pulled loose his tie. Restlessness was burning him all over.

During the past four years, he found that all women had been repellent to him.

He stayed away from ladies. Nor had he allowed any ladies to approach him. He even found it sick to get close to Theresa.

He had been wondering if he was a gay.
