Wife is a Lawyer novel Chapter 43

His arm went around her waist and looked down at her.

It turned out that he had misunderstood her.

He thought that Adriana was a greedy woman, but actually she was forced to do everything for saving her brother.

And she was not appreciated.

Was she really naive?

But he found it not bad.

“Let go of me.”

Adriana tried to struggle, but Peter didn’t let her go.

Then she took out a Swiss Army knife and placed it against Peter's neck, “Don’t blame me if you dare to touch me.”

She was obviously furious.

It might be a shame for Peter to be threatened by a woman.

He snorted, “You are the first one who dares to threaten me, Adriana. Are you seducing me?”

“Let go of me!”

Adriana glared at Peter, but he didn’t do anything.

Adriana was angry, “Theresa is my best friend, Peter. She is like my sister. I wouldn’t do that if I hadn’t been schemed against. However, you ravished me in such situation. What an ASSHOLE!”

Although she had lived a bad life, but she needn’t to apologize to anyone.

But she didn’t know how she was schemed against, and why she would sleep with Peter.

She slept with her best friend’s fiance, which was unable for her to forget.

And Peter was driving her crazy!

“Well, it’s just a joke.” Seeing that she was angry, Peter let go of her.

He didn’t want to see her feeling sad.

Holding the knife, Adriana was trembling.

She looked at Peter and said, “Stay away from me later. Stop the car.”

Hank stopped the car and Adriana left.

Sitting in the car, Peter saw her walking away. He frowned, “Find out who did that to her on Alvin’s birthday party.”

He thought she wanted to seduce Alvin, so she did it herself.

However, seeing her shivering in the cold water, he couldn’t bring himself to neglect her.

Although he saved her, he thought she did it on purpose.

But it turned out that she was the most innocent person.

When he saw Adriana was so guilty that she was almost crying because of that day, he was filled with indefinable emotions, which made him a little irritable.

“Yes, boss. I will do it right now.” said Hank.

“And find out who is behind Brenda.”

“Miss. Hale is also investigating about this. Should we stop her?” Hank asked.

“No.” said Peter, “Do something proper if she was blocked, and don’t let her know.”

“Proper?”

Hank wasn’t sure about the degree. After all, Adriana was friend of Theresa.

“To let her fracture?”

Bang--

Peter kicked Hank’s seat, “I will kill you if you dare to hurt her. Are you too much at ease recently? Should I send you to the Laotian chemical factory?

Hearing Peter’s words, Hank found that he had misunderstood what his boss meant.

Perter wanted to help Adriana.

“Haha, sorry, boss. Laos is so far away. I’m good here.” Hank was nervous.

He didn’t want to go to Laos at all.

Peter rubbed his temples, "Go back."

Seeing that it was early, Adriana wen to her Law Firm.

She was too bust to go these days.

Actually, not that busy. But the company had gone bankruptcy, so she didn’t go.

After all, it was set up by her. She was really sad.

“Miss. Hale, why are you here?”

Staffs left one by one after the bankruptcy. But Vivian was not willing to.

She was there alone.

“Why are you still here, Vivian?” Adriana walked toward Vivian and said with a sad, bitter smile.

They hugged each other and sat on the chair.

Seeing the messy company, Adriana sighed, “It’s been four years, and nothing left.”

“Sorry, Miss. Hale. The staff had taken away everything they could, for you can’t pay them salaries.”

Vivian called Adriana that day, but Adriana didn’t answer.

Then Vivian sent her a text message but didn’t get any replies.

“It’s okay.” Adriana frowned, “I come over for you. I will give you three million dollars and you can pay the salaries for our staffs. You can take it the rest. I was intended to give the company to you at first, but I never thought it would end up like this."

Adriana patted Vivian, “Sorry for your sufferings.”

“I don’t want money, Miss Hale. I only want to work with you no matter what happens. But did you offend someone? Obviously someone made our company go bankruptcy.” asked Vivian.
