Wife is a Lawyer novel Chapter 47

“Hey, Theresa, stop it!” Peter huffed, seemingly displeased when hearing that.

“A nice relationship requires love from both sides. If Alvin and Adriana love each other, that would be the perfect choice for both of them. Besides, that girl from the Hendersons has been staying abroad till now. Perhaps she has got herself a boyfriend.” Theresa smiled and continued, “Oops, I gotta handle the lobster first. Just wait for the feast.”

While speaking, she walked into the kitchen.

Now only Adriana and Peter were left alone in the living room.

“You told Theresa to come here?” Peter frowned with alert.

“Don’t you ever judge me like that. Theresa is my best friend. She has the right to drop by at any time.”

But her sudden arrival indeed stunned Adriana, which had gone far beyond her expectation.

Fortunately, she managed to come up with a convincing excuse to dissolve Theresa’s suspicion.

At the thought of that, she breathed a sigh of relief.

“What an excellent liar! You didn’t seem nervous at all while lying.” Peter sneered in low voice.

“But thanks to you, Mr. Alston. You did a good job as well.” Adriana refuted in mocking tone.

“Adriana, just call Alvin here to have dinner with us tonight.” Theresa walked out of the kitchen while talking to Adriana, “I am the chef tonight. I bet you miss the dishes I cook.”

“Oh, Alvin?” Adriana felt like getting stiff all over. She found it hard to figure out an excuse to say no.

She had just turned down the love confession from Alvin. If he showed up tonight, Theresa would definitely notice that she was just lying.

While she was hesitating, Peter suddenly uttered, “Well, Alvin…”

Before he could finish, someone knocked the door.

The three of them all paused, looking confused.

“Let me open the door.” Theresa walked over to open the door.

It was Alvin.

Seeing that, she got a bit thrilled, “Oh, Alvin! I was about to invite you here for dinner. I didn’t expect you actually showed up so soon.”

Then she turned to look at Adriana, “Hey, Adriana, Alvin is here!”

Meanwhile, Adriana raised her head to look at Peter, frowning.

How came Alvin suddenly arrived?

But she still stood up and greeted, “Hi, Alvin, please come in.”

“Oh, Theresa, Peter? You both have come?” while he was looking at them, a trace of awkwardness flashed across his eyes.

“Adriana, I need to talk to you.” But he showed no intention to enter.

“Alvin, would you like to join us for dinner tonight? Oh, I almost forget that we need more food. Come on, let’s go to the supermarket.” Adriana took her phone and walked over to him.

It seemed that she could tell what Alvin wanted to talk about.

“Theresa, I will be back soon.” Then she closed the door and walked into the elevator with Alvin.

Both of them remained silent during the following minutes.
