Wife is a Lawyer novel Chapter 109

With her back to Peter, she stood in place, her hand hanging at her side unconsciously tightened, her gaze flattened as she looked ahead, a little gloom and sadness flowing from her eyes, and more, heartache for Theresa.

Froze for a moment to calm the shock.

Yuran turned around and looked faintly at Peter, "Not in love? If you don't love him, why did you make such a big deal of the engagement ceremony? If you don't love him, why do you want to spend so much time with him?" Peter, you are a bastard!

Adriana's heart was so angry that if it weren't for the fact that she was no match for Peter, she would have struck out and taught this self-proclaimed noble man a hard lesson.

"Perhaps, you're right."

Peter does not retort, but rather a mild mood, can not see a trace of anger.

It was such a gesture that angered Adriana, and she was so angry that she clenched her red lips with her teeth, "You ...... you ......"

The long, slender finger pointed at him, angry and could not say a word.

Finally, she took a deep breath to calm her emotions before saying, "Remember what you said today. If you don't love, then please give her back her freedom."

"Good."

The man answered without thinking.

The words came out of his mouth, not only shocked Adriana, even Peter himself felt unbelievable.

But he was clear that the answer he just gave was from the heart.

"You won't accept her because Theresa can't have children?" A man, unable to accept a woman, was all the reason she could think of.

Peter frowned, unable to answer Adriana's question.

He was silent, but in Adriana's mind, it was by default.

Adriana stared straight at Peter and watched him for a while before suddenly turning away.

"Where are you going?"

Peter pursued the question.

But Adriana left without a backward glance, and this night, no one knows where she went.

In the early morning, Adriana returned to the hotel and just entered the room, she received a text message from Peter: [The client had a temporary problem today, the interview will be rescheduled to tomorrow.

Seeing his message, Adriana did not have any expression.

Went to the bathroom, took a shower, stood in front of the suite window in a bathrobe, looked out the window, and fell into a deep complication inside.

She had thought of many reasons, but did not think that this was the reason why Peter did not accept Theresa.

In the morning, after sleeping in the hotel, she got up and walked out of her room in her casual pajamas and knocked on Peter's door.

A short while later, the man opened the door to the room and saw Adriana standing in the doorway, the knife-like handsome face surfaced a little obscure and deep.

"Can I talk to you for a minute?" She wrapped her arms around her chest and kept her head down without looking at him.

"Enter."

Peter pulled the door open and let her in.

Adriana stood in the doorway for a few seconds and walked in, but kept her head down and didn't look directly at Peter.

"I came over here today to talk to you about Theresa." She had been up all night last night thinking about it.

"Say."

The man's tone was indifferent.

Turned around and walked to the sofa, sat down leisurely, the reserved and cold face, so she could not figure out his emotions.

Adriana pursed her lips, looked down at her toes, hesitated for a long time, then sighed, went to the window and looked out of the window.

The only way to stay calm is to not look directly at Peter.

"You must be wondering why Theresa can't have children, right?" She asked rhetorically.

The only thing that answered her was silence. As her voice fell, there was only silence in the room, so quiet that even the breathing of the two seemed audible.

"She is my good girlfriend, we had a very good relationship as a child. Just that one time, I took her out for a drive, who knows ......"

Knock-knock-

At that moment, the room door knocked once more.

Interrupting Adriana's words.

She turned back and approached the glass window, and suddenly there was a tension, the kind of emotion that comes very inexplicably.

The eyelid of the right eye fluttered without warning.

Peter glanced at Adriana and got up to open the door.

Walked to the door and pulled away from the room, but suddenly one person wrapped his arms around his neck, "Hey Peter, SURPRISE!"

Theresa wrapped her arms around Peter, perhaps because she suddenly jumped on Peter's body, Peter was not expected, did not stand still, his body took a few steps back and crashed open the door of the room.

The moment the room door opened, Theresa's eyes fell on Adriana's body length, and the smile on her cheeks froze instantly.

First elation, then astonishment, dismay, disbelief, to anger!

In just a few seconds, Theresa's emotions changed dramatically, and her arms around Peter slowly loosened.

Looking at Adriana incredulously, "How did you ...... you get here?" She reached out and pointed to Adriana and then to Peter, "Peter, why are you together?"

Her exquisitely made up face showed sadness and pain, her eyes welled up with a faint red, tearful and dense.

"Theresa, let me explain."

Adriana does not know if Peter is nervous or not, but at this moment Adriana's heart is almost out of her throat, and the whole person is in a mess.

Like a flat boat floating in the middle of the ocean, suffering from the ravages of the storm, shivering with fear.

She keeps saying that she wants to maintain a relationship with Peter, but today Theresa found the two of them in a room with her own eyes.

She, on the other hand, was wearing a nightgown and her hair was draped over her shoulders and hanging, without careful care, looking a little messy.

How can such a scene not make people think about it?

"You shut up!"

Theresa roared hysterically, and tears, came to her eyes.

Adriana, even though I treat you like a good sister, a good girlfriend, is this how you treat me? Why? You've hooked up with Brenden and that's not enough? Now even Peter wants to steal from me?"

She was so deep in pain that she couldn't help herself, her near-roaring grimace resembling a greatly stimulated lunatic.

Adriana shook her head like a rattle, "Theresa, I didn't. I really didn't. Believe me, nothing happened between me and Mr. Alston, I just came here today to discuss some things with him. I ......"

"You what you? You told me yourself yesterday that you weren't with Peter and that was a lie too?Adriana, you are so disappointing to me."

She sobbed and choked, crying harder and harder.

That look caused Adriana's heart to ache, and her eyes also followed the red.

"I ......"

Adriana still wanted to explain something, but saw Peter pull Theresa over, "Calm down, Adriana lives next door, she just came over to discuss with me about work matters. The reason why she hid it from you is because she was worried that you would misunderstand."

Peter, who has never been good at explaining, today broke the record and patiently explained to Theresa.

A mere phrase that perhaps he himself did not care much about.

But in Theresa's heart, it has changed.
