Wife is a Lawyer novel Chapter 122

"When did you meet?"

"More than a decade ago."

"Known from school?"

"Yes."

"Were you at the engagement party when she was engaged?"

"Attended."

"And was it you who revealed important trade secrets of the Hetrua Firm?"

The old man asked a lot of boring questions, just to attract Adriana's attention, so that she can disrupt her thinking and try to ask questions unexpectedly, so as to get real and valid answers from Adriana.

But he, neglected Adriana's profession.

She is a lawyer by profession, responsive and intelligent, how could she be fainted by three or two questions?

"No."

That day, Theresa had said that Peter had covered up for her and took all the blame.

She certainly couldn't admit it.

First, if she admits it, it will make everyone in The Alston family feel that Peter is taking sides with her and thus suspect Peter's relationship with her.

This makes things even more complicated.

Second, Peter is both partiality to her, it means that his feelings for her unchanged. Then at this point, only dead not admit to betray him, will let Peter completely disappointed, to her this liar, traitor completely is to go confidence.

The purpose of putting distance between the two has been achieved.

"Really not?" Old Mr. Alston asked once again

Adriana nodded, "Old Mr. Alston is suspecting me?" She smiled and said airily, "I'm curious, why did Old Mr. Alston think it would be me who betrayed the Alston Group?"

She asked a bold and direct question.

Old Mr. Alston's hand spinning the bead string paused, eyes narrowed, the body emits a stern aura, the aura is forced, "Ms. Hale, I hate people who lie in this life. I can give you a chance, if you admit it, I will spare you, otherwise, if the police get involved, you will face is a prison sentence. You are young, you won't cut your own throat."

Old Mr. Alston attacked people and took great pains to threaten.

However, Adriana is not afraid.

"No."

She held her head high and was dead set against it.

"You lie!"

At this time, a sliding door was pulled open and a familiar figure came out of it, Theresa.

She looked straight at Adriana, walked to the center of the hall, looked at Adriana, and said, "Adriana, although you and I are BFF friends, Peter is my fiancé, and I can't take your side and let Peter take the blame just because we're BFFs."

Her sudden appearance took Adriana by surprise, but also pushed things into complications.

What has clearly settled is now winding down again.

Only, Adriana didn't expect Theresa to report her to The Alston family.

"That day, the three of us were in a hotel in Los Angeles, and I saw Peter hand that important piece of information to you with my own eyes. That piece of information that only Peter and you knew about. If you didn't leak it, could it still be Peter?"

Theresa's rhetoric is sharp and she doesn't give Adriana a second thought.

It seems that today she must show her true face to be good.

The company's business was destroyed by Peter, and you deliberately took revenge by leaking important secrets on the Hetrua Firm's cooperation materials. But what about Uncle, Auntie's car accident was caused by your sister, after hospitalization, the doctor said Auntie is in good condition and may revive. Will why after you and Uncle passed, Auntie suddenly died? You ...... you ...... Adri, think carefully, what do you really want to do?"

Adriana stood across from her, quietly listening to her words, her heart, fell to the bottom.

Sometimes this is the case, your heart wants to be good to a person, but found that she took a knife towards your heart stabbed hard, painful.

It seems that you can feel the heart dripping blood.

Her bland expression gradually had a hint of cracking.

"So, you just think I'm the one who leaked the company's secrets?"

Adriana asked a rhetorical question.

"Of course. Because, I have proof."

Theresa was quite confident, then looked back at Old Mr. Alston, "Grandpa, I have proof that it was really Adri who leaked the secrets."

"Oh, yeah?"

Old Mr. Alston looked meaningfully at Theresa, and then his eyes fell on Adriana, "Don't you admit it yet?"

"I just want to see the evidence."

Yes, it is the evidence.

She would like to know exactly what kind of evidence Theresa had taken.

"Here, is a recording, Adri, which I believe, you will be familiar with."

With that, Theresa turned her phone on and tapped on a recording and let the recording play, with Adriana's voice coming from inside.

"Why can't I betray? You should go back and ask Peter, not me! Hale Cobb Law Firm was founded by me with great effort, and now it is ruined by his hands, why can't I betray him?"

The complete paragraph is exactly what Adriana said when Theresa broke into her house a few days ago and confronted her with some questions.

It's just that Adriana didn't expect that paragraph to become evidence in court now, but it was still reported by Theresa.

Adriana's eyes are indifferent, like a pool of stagnant water, without half a ripple, the wind passed without a trace.

"Adri, I'm sorry."

Theresa phone clutched the phone along her lips, apologizing to her, desperately acting out the emotions of guilt and hurt.

Only those eyes betrayed her false face.

A flash of smugness and cunning, not missed by Adriana.

"Now that you have the evidence, what can I say? Let Old Mr. Alston do as he pleases."

Previously Peter took the fall for her and all her plans were disrupted, and now Theresa is pushing everything back into the trajectory of her budget.

I don't know if it is sad or happy.

"Theresa, have you made enough noise yet?"

At this moment, sitting aside silent Peter coldly called her name , good-looking features but flooded with cold chill.

"Peter ......"

Theresa looked at Peter with affection, her lips pursed together, and slowly shook her head, "Peter, I know you remember that Adri is my BFF and don't want to ruin my friendship with Adri. But ......"

She glanced at Adriana again, "Adriana has changed and is no longer the same person she was. You took 300 million to buy her company, but she didn't appreciate you."

Acquisition?

A word fell into Adriana's ears, but as if a sharp dagger ruthlessly stabbed in her heart nest, the pain almost choked, as if you can feel the blood spilling out.

It is clear that Peter took the means to ruin her company and insult her, so he gave 300 million as the price to get her out of Waverly.

But when it comes to Theresa here, it becomes ...... her insensitive and does not appreciate Peter's good intentions.

Adriana is heartbroken and doesn't know how to describe her feelings at this moment.

The heart that endured the ups and downs, the stormy weather, shaking.
