Wife is a Lawyer novel Chapter 53

"Okay, I got it, Ms. Hale, go ahead and go out, don't worry about me." Brenda said with a slight smile.

"Well, then I'll go out first and call if I need anything."

"Good."

Leaving the neighborhood, Adriana drove straight to the hospital.

When she winded up in the inpatient building and entered Jenkins' ward, she realized that in addition to Jenkins and Thelma, there was a familiar and somewhat unfamiliar girl in the ward.

Hayley!

Thelma's daughter.

Four years have not seen, Hayley has also grown up pavilion, look pure and lovely, fair skin, a pair of narrow fox eyes, but also add a few titillating posture.

Although the looks are not stunning, but it is also considered a beauty.

She was wearing a chiffon shirt with high-waisted wide-legged pants, sitting on the edge of the bed with a ponytail, topped with a pair of red eyes, dense with tears, and seemed to be crying.

The gesture ......

It was really unexpected for Adriana.

"Brother, what do you want to see me about?"

Eyes on Thelma and Hayley two swept around, and then looked at Jenkins, for those two ignored.

At one time, Thelma was as over the top as Hayley was to her.

It is still fresh in my mind, and I can't stop thinking about it.

"Adri, don't you recognize me?"

Hayley choked on a few sobs, biting her lips with her teeth, and asked with an unhappy face.

"Adriana, what's wrong with you? Can't you see me and your sister? Can't even say a word?"

Being deliberately ignored by Adriana, Thelma was extremely upset, pointing at her and shouting, "I raised you for nothing, you white-eyed wolf."

"Mom, how can you talk to Adri like that, she didn't mean it."

Hayley took Thelma's hand and pouted, "Anyway, Adri is also my sister, you can't be so mean to her."

Adriana was flattered by the sudden tenderness.

But, there is always a demon when things go wrong.

Hayley has never liked her.

When I was young, I either thought she looked prettier than she was or I thought she studied much better than she did, so I soaked in the jar of vinegar every day, and every day all kinds of schemes and calculations, so Adriana was incredibly tired.

I thought I hadn't seen her for years, and Hayley would still be yelling at her, but I didn't know that her temperament had rotated 360 degrees and she really couldn't lose weight.

"OK, you guys are the ones with the right reasons, you're the good guys."

Thelma waved her hand with some disappointment, "I'm too old to control you guys."

"Mom, that's not what I meant."

Hayley bristled, "It's just ...... just this time I want Adri to do me a favor, how else am I supposed to ask when you're like this."

She frowned and glared hard at Thelma, thinking that this mother was not good enough to make it.

Thelma suddenly realized, then collected her emotions and immediately moved a stool and handed it to her, "Come, Adri, sit down for a while. Mom was too impulsive just now, and you got angry with it."

A flattering smile, a face of flattery.

Adriana was sarcastic, but felt that Hayley was straightforward and dared to say this to her face, without any regard for her presence.

It is frank.

"No need."

Adriana didn't have a good attitude and her eyes fell on Jenkins who was lying on the hospital bed, "Brother, what do you want from me, just say it."

She likes to be straightforward and doesn't like to bend the rules and make people struggle to guess, which really hurts the brain.

"Adri......"

Jenkins, whose forehead was wrapped in gauze, leaned on the bed, gazed languidly at Adriana, frowned slightly, and sighed, "This thing, this thing ...... alas, Hayley, it's better if you talk to Adri yourself."

There were some things that she really had trouble saying, and she simply didn't know how to say them to Adriana.

Both before and now, Jenkins always felt that The Hale family owed Adriana a lot, so much so that he, the older brother, was forever embarrassed to ask for it in front of Adriana.

The reason why he felt embarrassed will be because his life is Adriana sold in exchange for, for this reason, he felt guilty for several years, has been haunted by it can not be released.

"Brother, how can I say that."

Hayley clutched her hands on her sleeves, embarrassed to speak to Adriana.

"What's so embarrassing to say? Adriana is no one else. "

Thelma grunted and gave Hayley a blank look, thinking that her own girl was too thin-skinned.

"It's like this, your sister she ...... she drove into someone, and now the other side is tracing your sister, to be held responsible, look, can you help solve this thing?"

Anything is trivial in Thelma's eyes, and she seems to think that Adriana is capable of solving it.

"Sorry, I can't help. Hit-and-runs are legally responsible, and I won't report you, but there's no way to help you either."

The hit-and-run is a very bad incident, not only shows Hayley's character problem, but also has a huge problem with literacy.

How is it possible to want to be irresponsible for the mistakes you make?

Wouldn't the victim be innocent?

"Hey, how do you talk? Your sister she didn't do it on purpose either? Isn't it because she's timid, otherwise how could she get like this?"

In front of Adriana, Thelma always looks like a boss, always feel superior, or rather, in her subconscious feel that she gave Adriana a life, Adriana must obey orders.

"Cowardice is the reason? She's an adult and should take responsibility for her actions."

No wonder Thelma begged her like that yesterday, so it was this matter.

But even so, Adriana is not willing to help Hayley, "you better hurry to the police station to turn yourself in, confess to be lenient, can strive for leniency."

"No, I don't want to go to the police station, no."

The first time I heard that she had to be sent to the police station, Hayley's face turned white with fear and she shook her head like a rattle, her eyes red with aggression, "I really didn't mean to do it, no. Adri, the person who hit me this time was not a simple person, it was The Alston family. If you send me to the police, I'm afraid I'll be in the police station for the rest of my life."

She wept with sadness.

If it was someone else, everything can be solved with money, but the problem is that the person who hit and injured is The Alston family, if sent to the police, I'm afraid she will have to stay in the police station for the rest of her life.

"The Alston family?"

For a moment, Adriana felt that time can be really small and such a small chance can happen?

"Yeah, Adri, if Hayley had been hurt by someone else, we could have worked something out. But The Alston family ......"

leaning against the bed Jenkins face difficult look, "I think so, or you and Hayley to The Hale family to talk to someone. If The Alston family is willing to let Hayley go, I am not responsible for my injuries with The Alston family, a concept, what do you think?"

Apparently, Jenkins had an idea when she called Adriana.

Hearing his words, Adriana was inevitably a little disappointed.

The eyes stared blankly at Jenkins, eyes slightly flickering, actually did not know what to say.
