Wife is a Lawyer novel Chapter 48

Edward squinted at Adriana with an unpredictable look.

His eyes seemed to be able to read her mind.

Adriana was rendered quite uncomfortable She hurried to say to Alvin, “Alvin, why don’t you invite them to my apartment for a talk?”

While speaking, she turned to look at Flora and Edward, “Would you like to join us for dinner?”

Edward looked at Flora, waiting for her answer. While Flora nodded to agree, “Great! I’d love to!”

Then she said to Edward, “Edward, just go with Alvin. I will go with Adriana to the supermarket.”

“Okay.” Edward nodded and laid his hand on Alvin’s shoulder, “Come on, let’s go. I haven’t met Peter for a long time.”

Alvin appeared a bit hesitant while looking at the two ladies. After some consideration, he walked away with Edward.

Adriana felt like being stuffed with mixed feelings when looking at them walking into the apartment building.

“Hey, are you gonna hook up with my man?”

As Adriana turned around, she saw Flora posturing with both arms crossed in front of her chest. At this moment, she was staring at Adriana with sharp eyes, in which there hidden great hostility.

Apparently, she wasn’t an innocent and simple girl at all.

She was literally a proud lady raised in a privilege family.

As Adriana had expected, Flora was good at disguising herself.

“Miss Henderson, I believe you hold bias against me.” Said Adriana in cold voice. Then she added, “Alvin is just a friend of mine. There is nothing between us but friendship. I suggest you drop your hostility against me.”

Adriana was a bit annoyed when noticing that this girl deemed her a rival at the first time they met each other.

“Really?” Flora still appeared suspicious, “but Alvin doesn’t seem to think so.”

“Oh, really? You’d better keep your eyes on your man…” Adriana replied.

Then she shrugged, “Okay, let’s stop. Would you like to get to the apartment or go with me to get some food in the supermarket?”

“Of course I am gonna go with you. As I said to Alvin just now, I won’t simply change my decision.”

Flora soon dropped her hostility against Adriana. At this moment, she naturally walked over to wrap around Adriana’s arms as if they had been friends for years.

Adriana felt a bit awkward for her sudden move, “That’s who you really are, being a social butterfly to anyone else?”

“Of course not!” she refuted and then smiled at Adriana. At this moment, she appeared totally friendly, “I love to stay with people with pretty face. You look pretty. That’s why you get my favor. Come on, let’s be friends.”

Adriana was rendered speechless by her unusual personality.

She had no idea how to communicate with this special girl.

“But I don’t wanna be your friend in case you accuse me of flirting with your man.”

“Let’s make it a fair rivalry. Both you and I have the right to struggle for his love. If you win, I can quit.”

“Miss Henderson, are you making a proposal or simply just to feel me out?”

While talking to this brilliant girl, Adriana had to stay highly alert.
