Wife is a Lawyer novel Chapter 132

Hank spoke very cautiously, out of the corner of his eye from time to time to observe the face of his boss, afraid that a wrong word will have to be sent to the guillotine.

Then, he said: "Recently, the company has circulated a new saying. It says ......Adriana is bent on climbing the ladder of luxury, and quite a few people in The Alston family are having affairs, and others say they saw Adriana introduced in a bar a few years ago, a ......"

The latter words, Hank did not continue.

Because he obviously felt the boss body stiffened, the cigarette in his hand was hard to pinch deformation, surrounded by cold air.

"Immediately go and find out who is behind the rumors and create trouble, once found out, punish severely." Peter coldly dropped a sentence.

Hank led the order and immediately went down to investigate at this time.

The next day, Adriana entered the company and found that all the finger-pointing was gone, and even the whispering was gone.

At first it was not clear what was going on, but finally it was discovered that there was a notice in the department group that employees were not allowed to talk about their supervisors in the company, otherwise, they would be transferred to the judicial authorities for defamation.

With such a shock, who would dare to say anything?

After the calm, Adriana's life has become a lot more peaceful and relaxed.

That night, a miracle followed, and Nelson Dean wouldn't let her work late either.

Adriana felt like she had finally walked out of hell.

On the same day, a phone call was made to Theresa for an appointment.

An hour later, the cafe.

Adriana sat in the cafe for a while, ordered a glass of Blue Mountain, and not long after, Theresa, dressed in a white professional dress, appeared in front of her.

"Hi Adri, long time no see. How come you gave up asking me out?" Theresa looked natural and waved to the waiter on the side, "A mocha."

"Is your project department busy?"

Adriana took a sip of her coffee and looked at Theresa, who has been looking rosy lately, with a few starbursts in her eyes.

Long time no see?

Every day at the office, you can often run into Theresa, but every time she is talking and laughing with her colleagues, pretending to be invisible.

She even met her gaze a few times, but she continued to pretend not to see.

Everything is clear to her, she just doesn't say it.

"Alas, don't mention it, the project department has a lot of things to do every day, and it's really exhausting to work overtime. If I had known, I might as well be a broad wife at home and be comfortable."

Theresa propped her elbows on the desk with both hands and looked out the window, grumbling.

"That's true, it's naturally harder in the company than The Alston family." Adriana nodded her head in agreement.

And then, with a turn of phrase, she asked, "Do you know about the recent rumors in the company?"

"Huh? Rumors? What rumors?"

Theresa pretended to be unaware of the situation, but she was stared down by Adriana's stern, burning gaze that made her sweat stand up.

I can only smile sarcastically and say with some difficulty: "Adri, actually ...... I actually heard about it all long ago. It's just that ...... I'm sorry, I really tried very hard to explain these things to them, but no one believed me. We are all good girlfriends, how could you rob Peter, not to mention that you and Uncle are together."

Adriana leaned against the card table, hands on the table, coffee cup in hand, looking directly at her, "Theresa, how many years have we known each other?"

"What are you ...... suddenly asking this for?"

Being called over by her inexplicably and talking about some inexplicable topic, Theresa looked uneasy.

Adriana sighed and withdrew her gaze to look out the window, "We have known each other for more than ten years, middle school, high school, college, we are good girlfriends without words, including Anne. we all know each other's little secrets deeply. Naturally, that also includes ......"

She paused in her words and turned back to look at Theresa once more, "The subtle change in expression that everyone has when they lie."

"And I, the person I know best, the person I know best, the person I trust the most, is also you."

The tone grew serious and Adriana sighed deeply, "But all things cannot withstand the polish of time and suspicion. I know you've been suspicious of me and Mr. Alston, but ...... we really don't have anything."

When she said this, Adriana's eyes obviously dodged a bit, not daring to look directly at Theresa.

Because, she lied.

Then, added: "Peter is your fiancé, you will be together for life, and I, will not disturb your life. I thought, we are girlfriends, so you have enough trust in me, but ...... I did not expect, The Alston family, you will accuse me in public. Of course, that is your love for Mr. Alston, I have nothing to say. But why did you ...... put out that kind of news in the company?"

"What? What?"

Theresa laughed awkwardly as if she didn't understand what Adriana was saying, "Adri, stop it, I didn't even understand what you were saying."

At that moment, the coffee was delivered.

She held her coffee and looked down and took a sip, it burned her mouth a little, but at the moment she was more concerned with what Adriana had said that left her groundless.

"Theresa, I called you over today, just to tell you. In the future, if you have any grievances, you can just come over and question me, even if you talk about me, scold me, and doubt me, I accept it all. But I can't accept backstabbing trivialities and false accusations."

"Adriana ......"

"Don't ask me for evidence. Do you think that it's not easy for me to find evidence?"

Adriana looked astonished, "Since returning to China, we have been estranged, I just didn't expect everything to come so quickly. In fact, I still cherish our relationship very much, only unfortunately, things have come to an end today, we, fate."

"Adriana, you are simply talking nonsense. How can you say that about me when you have no evidence? Do you want to accuse me in front of Peter?"

Theresa instantly changed her face and retorted with a red face.

"Evidence?"

Adriana looked straight at her, half a minute, the corners of her lips raised a light smile, "If you were given the evidence, what would it change?"

"At least, right now, the lack of evidence means you're framing me!"

She was furious, "You are a lawyer, don't forget the day you said that a false accusation without evidence is slander. This sentence is now for you."

The atmosphere is heavy, the swords are drawn, and the two men are facing each other with four eyes, each unconvinced.

"Okay, proof is it? I'll give it to you."

Adriana took out her phone, opened her email, and sent an email message inside to Theresa, "There are some things that I don't need to investigate, someone will tell me. You underestimate Brenden's ability."

That piece of information was sent to her by Brenden, saying it was evidence that Theresa had set her up, all of it.

But Adriana never opened it to see it.

These days, she held back because she wanted to give Theresa a chance to admit her mistakes, hoping that she would one day be able to find her with guilt and remorse to admit her mistakes.

However, she was so wrong.

Adriana raises her phone, which shows the email she sent to Theresa.

Theresa opened it and looked at the well-organized evidence and couldn't help but blush and be shocked.
