Wife is a Lawyer novel Chapter 64

"Waste, the district can't even find a manager."

Peter chided.

Suddenly, his eyes narrowed slightly, stunned a smooth, but the corners of his lips could not help but raise an arc, smiling strangely.

"Okay, it's getting late, get off work."

Raising his wrist to look at the time, it was after six o'clock, just after closing time.

Hank was in a fog, "Such a big thing happened in the company, the outside news is brewing fermentation, boss really don't care, Night KTV manager is the key figure in the incident, can't find him what to do?"

"Why don't you have this time to investigate who got those people in custody killed."

Peter is almost certain that Adriana must be responsible for the disappearance of the Night KTV manager.

From the beginning, he didn't care about Brenda and didn't bother to investigate.

Brenda, on the other hand, was the only person he investigated, but came up empty-handed.

"So should we interrogate Brenda? That woman is also very suspicious." Hank said.

"No need, put a long line to catch a big fish. I'd like to know who is laying the groundwork, deliberately exposing so many suspicions and loopholes, how can their purpose be as simple as appearances?"

"Is this the boss's plan to put a plan in place?"

......

Meanwhile, the fifth floor of an abandoned building.

"Uhhhhhhh ......"

The man tied to the post struggled and howled, but with a cloth in his mouth and blindfolded, he could not see anything.

Adriana stood aside and said to her bodyguard, "Let him talk and take off the blindfold."

Suited and well-trained bodyguards removed the cloth from the man's mouth as well as the blindfold.

"Who are you and what do you want?"

Finally able to speak, the man glared angrily at Adriana, "Why are you, Ms. Hale, kidnapping is against the law, you know the law, believe me to sue you?"

The man in front of him is Van, the manager of Night KTV, the key to this case.

Adriana wrapped her arms around her chest, "Brenda said you saw Peter enter Brenda's room with your own eyes that day?"

"Yeah, what's the matter, is it wrong to see too?" Van had an arrogant attitude.

"Oh."

Adriana nodded fervently, "The surveillance didn't catch anything that day?" She asked again.

"Didn't I tell you, the monitoring is broken, how to see!"

"Got it."

Adriana said, picked up her cell phone and took a call.

It was Vivian's assistant who called, "How's the investigation going?"

"Ms. Hale, I asked the line maintenance man at the KTV and he said that there has been no problem with the KTV line for the last two months and there is no line failure at all. But the video of that day was deleted more than half a month ago."

"Deleted?" Adriana was a little sorry, wouldn't that be no proof.

"Don't worry, Ms. Hale, you're still not sure about my work. I've got a professional to do the restoration, the video has been recovered, send it to you later."

"Yes, I'm sending it to you now."

After hanging up the phone, Adriana's What's App message rang, and when I opened it, it was a video sent over by Adriana.

Fast forward to the video, which shows Brenda entering the room, followed by another man entering her room.

But that person turned out to be ......Van?!

With the phone in her hand, she raised an eyebrow at Van and walked up to him, "Say, how do you explain this one?"

Van took a look at the video and his face immediately sank.

Lowering his head, his eyes dripping, after a while, he sighed, "It's just that, since you know everything, I won't hide it. You untie me, I'll tell you everything."

"I'll let you go when you're done."

"Ouch, Ms. Hale, what can I do to you with so many of you around?" Van was helpless.

Seeing his sincere attitude, Adriana waved her hand, "Let him go."

"Yes."

The bouncer walked over and let go of Vanstraight away.

Van moved his shins and walked towards Adriana, "Actually, I'm innocent too ......"

Adriana listened carefully and waited for the following.

However, who expected him to just take three steps towards the front and then take advantage of everyone being caught off guard just running towards the right.

On the right is a floor-to-ceiling window, but the house construction is not completed and there is no protection at all.

"Get him!" Adriana exclaimed.

However, the distance was too close and without waiting for the bodyguards to react, Van jumped straight up.

Bang--

A muffled grunt came from the bottom of the building, Adriana rushed over, although a very high distance, but clearly saw the other side of the tragic death look.

Adriana's hand brushed against the wall, and she was shocked repeatedly and passed out immediately.

When she woke up again, she was in Peter's car.

Was awakened by a nightmare, sat up with a scream, and duly found himself in Peter's car.

"Why are you here?" Adriana's voice was wispy, her hand raised to wipe the sweat stains from her forehead, her small face pale and colorless.

"After the accident you were unconscious, several brothers called me and I came over." For some reason, Peter saw her haggard appearance, but actually grew a sense of heartache.

In the end, she was also implicated in his affairs.

"This matter has nothing to do with you, and you should not be involved in the future." Peter did not want Adriana to be involved in this matter so as not to be implicated.

Adriana leaned back in her car seat and let out a long breath, "I'm sorry, I owe you an apology. This really has nothing to do with you."

Before Brenda said so sure, she really thought Brenda saw Peter with her own eyes, and only after careful cross-examination did she realize that this was the case.

"But there are so many suspicions in this matter. The strange deaths of several people in custody, Van's suicide, and why Van lied to frame you."

Adriana's mind is hard, remembering that time Van's death, she could not let go.

"I don't want to get involved in your affairs, but please don't drag Theresa into it, she is innocent. You are covered with blood, but she is a simple and clean girl, I hope you can guard a pure land for her."

At the end of the sentence, Adriana said to Hank, "Stop the car."

Hank glanced at his boss through the rearview mirror, and when he didn't stop, he stopped the car at the side of the road.

"I'll send you the video right away, and I'll give you an explanation on Brenda's side."

She got out of the car and closed the door.

The car slowly left.

Adriana stood alone in the busy street, as the walking dead found a bench and sat on the curb to rest.

But even with how she regulated her mind, she could not come out in the shadow of the bloodshed.

She sent the video to Peter and Brenda on that phone and called Brenda personally, "Did you see the video? You and Peter did not have any relationship, it was Van who was lying to you all along. Your mother's death was really just an accident. And Van is just using your mother's death to make a big deal out of it and plant it on Peter."

"How did this happen? What about the people who ...... kidnapped me and threatened me, was it all Van's doing?"

"Yes, he admitted it himself."
