Wife is a Lawyer novel Chapter 96

"What's so loud? It's really noisy."

With one hand over her mouth and Adriana's hand in the other, Brenden ruthlessly and mercilessly removed the oxygen mask from Gisselle's mouth, cutting off her breathing.

Even though she kept struggling, reaching for Brenden's arm and sinking her nails hard into his skin, Brenden didn't struggle or resist.

It was as if the pain could not be felt.

But Adriana kept resisting and struggling, but her strength was no match for Brenden's, and Han couldn't move a bit.

On the hospital bed, Gisselle was without oxygen mask, she was not breathing enough, her chest was rising and falling more and more, her nostrils were emitting basic breathing, and even her immobile fingers were slowly moving.

Subsequently, the body began to twitch, struggle, and finally ...... the struggle became weaker and weaker, until finally lying limp-like on the bed, completely out of breath.

"How was it? Was it exciting? Exciting?"

Brenden let go of Adriana.

Adriana immediately turned around and shouted, "Come on, someone, kill someone, quickly ......"

"Shout, shout. The oxygen mask has your fingerprints and mine on it, and the rumor is that you and I are about to get married, but now Gisselle is suddenly dead. Who do you think is the most suspicious?"

The man stood at the edge of the inner bed, looking down at Gisselle, and addressed Adriana.

"Brenden, you crazy, you are crazy!"

Adriana was weak, her hands propped up on the nightstand, her eyes closed, on the verge of collapse.

"Crazy? Yes, I'm a lunatic."

He sat on the edge of the bed, put the oxygen mask on Gisselle's mouth and murmured, "Have a good trip, and be a good human being in your next life."

The two stood and sat in silence for a while without any words.

Adriana was deep in fear, feeling that the recent events, one by one, one by one, were almost destroying her, ruthlessly wreaking havoc and destroying.

"Why would it be me? Why?"

Adriana crouched helplessly on the ground, her hands covering her face, in pain.

"Because, you're Theresa's BFF."

It's the woman Peter has his eye on, it's Luis' mommy, it's Helen's mommy!

But these words, he never told Adriana.

Brenden turned and sat down on a chair with Adriana in his arms and gently patted her cheek, "So timid, are you trying to tell everyone that you killed Gisselle?"

"It's not me, it's you! Brenden, you're a demon, don't you go back to your midnight dreams haunted by nightmares?"

She yelled hysterically.

He shrugged and smiled, "I, Brenden, am a man who walks on the edge of death, what nightmares are I afraid of? Are you kidding me."

"Crazy!"

Adriana didn't know how to continue to spend time with him, and all that remained was her fear of Brenden.

The eyes looked at the innocent Gisselle, and his heart was full of mixed feelings.

An innocent life was ended, and she really did not know how she should feel about it.

There is only guilt, self-recrimination.

Not long after, the doctor came over, checked Gisselle's condition and informed the result directly that Gisselle was dead.

In the aftermath, The Alston family arrived one after another.

Meanwhile, Peter came over.

Seeing The Alston family coming, Adriana, who was sitting on a bench in the hallway, got up to leave, but just as she stood up, she was grabbed by the collar and led to the stairway.

"Adriana, tell me, does this matter have anything to do with you?"

Peter clasped her shoulders with both hands and questioned her sternly.

Adriana, who was weak and unsettled, slowly raised her eyes to look at the man in front of her, her lax gaze gradually coalescing, and shook her head, without saying a word.

Nothing to do with her?

No, about.

But, she was really forced to do nothing.

Adriana is caught up in guilt and self-blame, feeling that she is already the one with blood on her hands.

"It's okay?"

Peter didn't believe it at all, "Who are you kidding, once Gisselle is dead, you'll have a rightful home into The Alston family, won't you?"

Coming back from abroad, Adriana has heard most about The Alston family, The Alston family, The Alston family.

It seems that everything is inextricably linked to The Alston family.

She gradually regained consciousness and pushed Peter away, growling hysterically, "Peter, can you stay away from me? What do I have to do with you? If it wasn't for you, how could so many things happen?"

Recalling what Brenden said at that time, Peter was a calculator at the age of 19, and he was able to plan everything and win a thousand miles.

I think The Alston family is horrible.

Once she enters the luxurious family, she is also involved in strife and becomes a pawn.

"Because of me?"

Peter couldn't understand her words.

Adriana didn't bother to explain and pushed Peter away, saying feebly, " Get out of my way, I'm tired, so tired, so tired."

A few days before the shock has not recovered, the original poor health of Adriana is now more weak.

Like a flower that has been ravaged by a gale, it is devoid of life and may fall under any circumstances.

Her sudden emaciation, weakness, fell into Peter's eyes, seemingly invisible tugging at her heartstrings, but some of the heart can not bear.

Adriana, with her heels on, took one step towards the stairs.

Peter stood tall and found the little woman stumbling and floating step by step before her body fell backwards.

"Adriana!?"

Seeing this, the man stepped forward, from behind to catch, smoothly embraced in the arms, "Adriana, what happened to you?"

Falling into his arms, the familiar scent from his nose, Adriana tried to open her eyes, but her eyelids seemed to be filled with lead, simply can not open.

Clutching his arm with both hands, she murmured, "I didn't hurt Gisselle, no, really ......"

"Okay, I believe you."

Somehow, hearing her words, Peter was convinced.

Hold her and go to the doctor.

Settled in the ward, Adriana was hooked up to a drip and woke up in no time.

"Awake?"

Peter sat beside her and said with concern, "You were told to come to the hospital yesterday for a checkup and you didn't?"

"The doctor said the shock was too much and that it would be fine after a while of conditioning."

"Then how come you fainted again?" He questioned.

Adriana's mind reverberated with the events of noon, and Gisselle's death came to mind, and she couldn't help but close her eyes, "I don't know."

She didn't know what to say except that she was tired.

That way she was as weak and emaciated as Peter had ever seen her, "Did something happen? You tell ......"

"Peter, is there anything between me and you? My affairs have nothing to do with you. You sent me to the doctor, I thank you. In the future, please stay away from me."

Adriana is not an idiot.

At that moment, she asked Brenden why he chose her as a pawn, and Brenden said that it was because she was Theresa's best friend.

Actually, it is not.

That may be just one of the reasons.

The other part of the reason is because she is too close to Peter to be of use.

But no matter what, the war between them has nothing to do with her.
