Wife is a Lawyer novel Chapter 46

“Chasing after you?” Peter sneered, “Adriana, don’t ever try to change the subject!”

His voice sounded tough while he was grabbing her wrist, “You wanna turn a deaf ear to my warning, huh?”

Adriana still looked composed while facing his threatening look, “Mr. Alston, stop being domineering. I ain’t your staff. You have no right to interfere my personal issue!”

Adriana squinted and continued in a mocking tone, “Both Alvin and I have been single. He has the right to propose to me and I have the right to say yes.”

Adriana was getting so annoyed. She couldn’t figure out how much Peter seemed to hate her.

He had no right to judge her relationship with Alvin.

Though starting a relationship with Alvin had never been taken into consideration by Adriana, nor had she expected herself to accept his love confession, she still found it greatly disgusting whenever Peter was pushing her into another decision.

“You can be with anybody else except for Alvin!”

Alvin had been his best friend while Adriana was the mother of his son. If Alvin married her, Peter would be rendered horribly embarrassed when facing them in the future.

Besides, he had to take Luis’s feeling into consideration.

“You gotta be crazy!” Adriana pushed him away.

Suddenly, someone knocked the door.

Adriana took a look at it and walked pass Peter to open the door.

“Hey, Adriana, see what I’ve got.” Theresa was standing at the door while holding a basket filled with lobsters, “I know lobster is your favorite.”

But then she frowned, “Hey, what’s going on? You don’t look good.”

Adriana couldn’t help clenching her fists, overwhelmed with nervousness.

Peter was now right inside her apartment while Theresa suddenly showed up unexpectedly. What if Theresa noticed that Peter was just staying with her alone?

It was gonna be a tricky misunderstanding.

“Hey, Theresa! Peter has just arrived before I could notice you.” Adriana took a few steps backward to open the door.

Standing still, Theresa fixed her eyes on Peter while he was standing in the living room. As their eyes contacted, her face went pale with her eyes being stunned.

“Peter, why are you here?”

Theresa started looking around between Peter and Adriana. Then she trailed through the door to enter. As she reached the front of Peter, she raised her head to look at him, expecting an explanation.

Embarrassed as well, Adriana was overwhelmed with nervousness.

She clenched her fists, in the middle of which sweated. She found it hard to breath.

“Theresa, Alvin just confessed his love to me today…Peter was there with him. Do you still remember the case of Brenda that I took over? So I asked him to stay and showed him so files about the case.”

A storm seemed to be brewing at this moment.

Adriana struggled to calm down while mentioning about Alvin’s confession to her so as to dissolve Theresa’s suspicion.

“Is that so, Peter?” Theresa frowned while looking at him, waiting for his answer.

Obviously, she inclined to Peter’s answer rather than Adriana’s at this moment.
