Wife is a Lawyer novel Chapter 45

“Okay, thank you, Miss. Hale.” Brenda nodded, “Can I say everything in the interview?”

“Of course.”

“Well. I see.”

Then Adriana went to her neighborhood.

She saw Alvin as she walked into the entrance.

“Hello, Adriana.” Alvin was waiting for her.

“Why are you here?” Adriana was confused, “You can call me at first.”

“I want to talk to you in person.” Alvin clenched his fists and said seriously, “I love you, Adriana. I want to spend the rest of my life with you.”

Walking to Adriana, he held her hands and said gently, “I know I’m engaged with the Henderson Family, but I just want to invite you to my home. I want my parents to see you, and they will definitely like you. Then I will cancel the engagement myself.”

He was absolutely serious.

“Stop joking, Alvin.” Adriana shook her head, drew back her hands and took a step back, distancing herself from him.

“You are a perfect man, Alvin.” Adriana sighed, “You deserve a better woman.”

“Adriana, as you know, I am a simple man who doesn’t like money or power, but a simple life. I don’t want to get involved in a business war. That’s not what I want.”

Adriana knew he was true.

However, she couldn’t approach such a wonderful man.

“Alvin, you know what I want to say...” Adriana pursed her lips and looked up at him, not willing to hurt hum. “Please don’t...”

Then she walked away.

But Alvin stopped her, “Adriana...”

He walked in front of her and took out a white brocade box from his suit pocket. Then he slowly opened it, it was a diamond ring.

“It was designed by me. I didn’t take the chance when you left without a word four years ago. I won’t let you go this time.”

Alvin always knew what he wanted in love.

“Don’t reject me, okay? I heard about your company, it was because of me. I would like to take the responsibility, and I can give you everything you want. Can you give me a chance?”

Alvin knelt down on one knee and held up the diamond ring, with a devout look on his face.

“Wow, propose? Fantastic!”

“What a handsome man!”

“Is that Alvin Grant?”

“The woman is beautiful!”

Passers-by noticed the two. Some of them were looking, and some were taking a photo while whispering.

Adriana was a little embarrassed and helpless. Seeing the people around them, her face turned red, “Stand up, please, Alvin. Let’s go home at first, okay?”

“Okay.”

Alvin realized that she was embarrassed. Not willing to put her in the crosshairs, so he stood up and followed her back.

In the elevator, Adriana said, “Alvin, I have always treated you as my brother, and I will continue doing it.”

They could only be friends, which would never change.

“You really want to reject me?” clutching the ring box, Alvin was sad.

“It is impossible for us to get married. I told you at first.”

The lift had arrived at the floor where Adriana lived and the doors opened.

She walked out, “You deserve a better woman.”

Then she walked away without looking back, for she didn’t want to give him hope.

In the Alston Group, something happened.

Hank knocked the door and walked inside, “Did you see the mews, boss?”

Peter was sitting in front of the computer and watching the news.

Mr. Alvin Grant Proposed to an Ordinary Woman, Mr. Alvin Grant Successfully Proposed...

The video of Alvin and Adriana had been widely spread in a few hours.

Peter was extremely angry, then he pushed the computer away.

The computer fell down on the floor and was broken.

Hank was confused.

His boss was always a tolerant man, but he was in such anger today.

Hank couldn’t understand.

“Are you okay, boss?” asked Hank.

Peter frowned, and was furious.

Why can’t the woman settle down for just one day?

He had warned her not to approach Alvin, and she was neglecting bhim.

Well done!

He left the office in great anger.

Hank still didn’t know why his boss was angry like that.

Peter drove to where Adriana lived in twenty minutes.

And he knocked at her door.

Adriana was working on the case of Brenda. Hearing someone knocking, she went to open the door.

But when she saw it was Peter, her face turned pale and she immediately closed the door.

However, Peter was faster than her so he walked into the living room.

“You are trespassing. I will call the police if you don’t leave.” What an asshole! Did he think here is his home?

He could come and go whenever he wanted?

It was unbearable.

Bang--

Peter closed the door heavily and looked at Adriana angrily, “You said ‘yes’ when Alvin proposed to you?”

Without any superfluous words, Peter asked her directly.

“Well, Why should I tell you? Is the marriage investigation your new business?”

Adriana snorted, “You rushed to my house for that? I thought you wanted to propose.”
