Wife is a Lawyer novel Chapter 114

Theresa shook her head, "I'm waiting for you guys to come back."

"Well, just in time, let's go down to dinner together." It was getting late, just about time for dinner.

"Mr. Alston, Theresa, you guys go ahead and eat. I'm a little tired and want to go back and rest."

Adriana imperceptibly brushes Theresa's hand away and walks toward the room.

Peter glanced at Adriana and then said to Theresa, "Let's go."

"So ...... hasn't Adri had her meal yet?" Theresa's face showed concern, and there was not the slightest trace of acting, which would not make people suspect that her concern for Adriana would be fake.

"It's okay, I'm not hungry."

Adriana came back into the room and was about to close the door when she said, "Enjoy your meal."

The door, closed, isolated the three from view.

Theresa had no choice but to follow Peter downstairs.

Adriana returned to her room and sat helplessly, not without some anger.

Damn Peter, who clearly could have given her a vacation, but wouldn't.

Now, well, it is easy to want to meet with the girl, but only for an hour only.

But even so, she was in a much better mood.

Later that night.

Adriana was called out by Peter, "Tomorrow, to meet Reka, the president of Hetrua Firm, have you decided on the time and place?"

"It's the same request as last time is it?"

The environment should be a good private restaurant, Chinese restaurant.

"Yes."

"Okay, I'll arrange it."

Adriana nods her head.

Peter handed Adriana another important piece of information, "Go back and take a good look at this information, you'll need it tomorrow."

Adriana's eyes flashed slightly, her vermilion lips opened, but she wanted to say something.

Beside her, Theresa asked, "Peter, then can I come along tomorrow?" With a look of anticipation, she wanted to go along.

"Hmm."

Peter obliged.

Rumble-

Suddenly the sky a sound, through the window at the end of the corridor, the dark and borderless black night lightning and thunder, a storm is brewing.

Adriana glanced out the window and didn't care.

"Can you give me the car keys? I need to see the place in advance." Being in a foreign country, it was inconvenient not to have a car. For the sake of work, Adriana naturally would not be polite with Peter.

Peter gave the car keys to Adriana and the three of them went to their respective rooms.

During the night, Adriana made several phone calls in a row to determine the location, choose the staff, busy, even late at night to step on the spot.

It was a very hot and muggy day, and Adriana had to visit the place she had chosen in the evening for fear that something might go wrong tomorrow.

Who knows, she just drove out, outside is a violent storm, the rain fell with a clatter, not long, the rain turned steeply, is a rainstorm poured down.

Although the rain is very strong, visibility is low, but the good thing is that slow driving can still see the road ahead.

Adriana thought about going back, but Peter had said that tomorrow's meeting was very important and she had to make sure everything went well.

Jingle Bell-

Was driving when suddenly the phone rang.

Adriana pressed the Bluetooth and answered directly, "Who is it?"

"Where are you?"

On the other side of the phone, there was Peter's low, questioning, somewhat harsh attitude.

"Is something wrong?" Adriana asked instead of answering.

"Where are you driving to in all this rain?"

"Isn't it very important to have business cooperation tomorrow? I'm going to step in."

"Come back to me!"

The man ordered directly, not giving any good looks at all.

"Tomorrow's negotiation is cancelled?"

"No."

"That's not it. I'm driving, I'm not talking to you."

Adriana hung up the phone directly, without much nonsense with him, in any case, must go over today.

But the rain, it seems, is much heavier than Adriana expected.

By the time she drove slowly all the way and arrived at one of the estates where she was, it was already late at night.

Parked the car, just push open the door, there is someone with an umbrella came over, "Quickly, quickly, come over, too much rain."

"Well, thank you, Beatrice."

Adriana got out of the car, wrapped her arms around the woman's waist, and the two of them trotted all the way up the steps.

Standing in the corridor, suddenly a gust of wind, whistling harshly.

Beatrice pulls Adriana into the hall and closes the door.

"How come it's raining so hard?"

Adriana was a little confused because she had read the weather forecast this afternoon to prepare for tomorrow, but the weather app on her phone showed that there was no rain today or tomorrow.

Beatrice, in a long floral dress, is a Swoywana, now settled in Los Angeles, she and Adriana also met in a lawsuit, and since then there has been an inseparable relationship.

Beatrice and Adriana two years older, is a mixed-race girl, deep three-dimensional features, fair skin, simply like a Barbie doll, the beauty of excessive.

"Do you still not know? Just now the Meteorological Bureau officially issued a notice that there is a big storm tonight, and also a strong storm that came suddenly."

Beatrice explained.

Adriana stood in the hall, listening to the wind howling outside, anxious.

"By the way, what are you doing over here at this late hour?"

Beatrice asked.

Adriana sat on the sofa and took the cup of hot water she handed over, "Thank you." Sip a sip of tea, continued, "tomorrow is not the company has an important business cooperation, I want to talk about cooperation in your estate, and then ...... will have to work hard you the little cook cooking."

Although Beatrice is abroad, but she is a small holiday discipline, especially like to cook their own cooking, is a foreign very red food blogger.

Cooking, that's a ...... great!

"Yes, business at your door, please."

Beatrice smiles beautifully and plainly.

Adriana shook her head helplessly, "You're a food blogger, and there are countless people who invite you to cook or want to come to your estate every day."

She cupped her hands on Adriana's cheeks, "That's not even our Adri face is bigger."

The two men looked at each other and laughed.

Adriana spoke briefly about the next day's trip planning and collaboration, and then left.

Despite Beatrice's repeated attempts to stay, Adriana couldn't possibly delay the important meeting tomorrow.

On the way home, the storm was even worse and Adriana was struggling to drive.

Late at night, the highway is empty, the rain is pouring, she drove the car are feeling a little shaky.

But looking at the time is not early, or have to hurry back as soon as possible.

Speeding up a bit, who knows, ahead of her was a puddle, she couldn't see the road and drove in.

Bang--

With a loud bang, the front of the car sank hard, the rear buckled and planted into the pit.

Adriana only then found that the original out of the ground sinking, a sign fell aside with a hint, but because the wind was too strong and blew, she did not see.

"I should have known better than to go this way."

In the past, Adriana liked to take this shortcut, but she didn't expect the pit that awaited her!

Sitting in the car, she felt doubly overwhelmed.

Looking at the rain outside, if you do not exit as soon as possible, this rainstorm seeped into the deep pit, will only make this pit bigger and bigger.

Her car, on the other hand, is likely to get stuck in it and pull it all out.

And at this point, the rear of the car hanging in the air, and the ground pulled away from no less than ten centimeters, she simply can not move a centimeter.
