Wife is a Lawyer novel Chapter 136

She only wanted to show her closeness to Brenden as a way to distance herself from Peter.

Brenden rubbed her head dotingly, "How hard it is to come down, I'll just go up myself. By the way, I brought you one thing."

Said, pulled open the door of the car, from inside to hold out a bouquet of delicate roses, "like it or not? Give you."

Ninety-nine red roses tied into a bouquet, dotted with white stars, wrapped in purple flower paper, sprayed with water, drops of dew drops rippling on the flowers, glistening, like a bit of starlight, beautiful.

She held the flowers, even though there was a moment when she wanted to turn around and immediately throw them into the trash.

But when he found Peter still standing at the corner of his eye, he leaned over and sniffed the flowers, nodding his head with a happy smile on his face, "It smells good, I like it. Thank you, Gaki."

"Silly girl, why are you polite with me."

Brenden deliberately glanced at Peter, the look of smugness, holding the back of Adriana's head, leaned down to her forehead a kiss, "Later, I will send you again."

"No need to break the bank so much."

"For my beloved Adri, without breaking the bank."

The two of them are immersed in 'sweet talk', but they are both making a show, each with their own agenda.

On one side, Peter stood quietly, his bitterly cold gaze glancing incessantly at the present.

Looking at her fondness for flowers, looking at her love for Brenden, and even feeling that she must have been self-absorbed to think that Adriana was threatened by Brenden.

She was clearly red-handed by Brenden, such an idiot, deserved to be cheated!

"Stupid!"

Peter dropped his hands in the pockets of his suit pant pockets clenched tightly together, holding back the anger in his heart to make himself so calm.

At the sound of her voice, Adriana looked back at Peter, "Mr. Alston, would you like to come up and sit with us?"

"Adri, stop it, Peter just happened to be passing by here and didn't have time to ......"

"Good, just a little thirsty, go up and drink some water."

Peter looked for a lame reason and actually nodded his head in agreement.

For a moment there, it currently felt like I must have tinnitus in my own ears to hear Peter answer like that.

Shouldn't he have refused?

As it turns out, Adriana didn't mishear.

Peter nodded in agreement and then walked directly into the neighborhood, not looking at the two people frozen in place.

Crazy crazy crazy, Adriana felt like she was really going crazy.

No, I should say Peter is crazy.

On that rainy night, he had already made it clear to Peter, so why could this man still be so brazen?

"What are you thinking about, Peter is already just going in, let's hurry in too." Brenden took Adriana's hand and walked in.

However, before he could move a step away, Adriana had already shrugged off his hand, "Brenden, there's no one here, you don't have to be playing games, no one will see."

She gave an angry rebuke.

Brenden stopped in his tracks, "What, not happy? No matter what, you are now my Brenden's fiancee, in the future, we will be together, you should get more used to adapt now."

This phrase heard Adriana almost did not die of nausea themselves.

"More acclimatization? We agreed on a year between us, so getting used to it won't be necessary."

Two months have passed since the initial agreement, and with ten months left, there is no need for any bonding and adaptation between them.

"Adriana, don't forget that Helen is still in my hands, talk to me politely or I don't know if I will do something unimaginable."

His face was hideous, and the way his teeth and claws looked made Adriana look like she wanted to kill him.

But there is one thing that is fatal.

That is Helen is in Brenden's control, even if he hates Brenden, now he can only hold back the anger in his heart, to ensure that he does not go to kill this bastard.

Dangerous by him once again, Adriana laughed mockingly, "Brenden, do you have any methods other than threats?"

"Threats work just fine, why go through all the trouble of finding other ways?" He moved closer to Adriana and raised his hand to pinch her cheek, "Adriana, don't ever try to struggle within my palm, you, are not good enough!"

"You ......!"

Adriana choked on her words and, holding back the anger in her heart, turned and walked into the neighborhood.

Yes, Brenden has a point. She's not in a position to turn over a new leaf yet, so why struggle unnecessarily?

However, she has to be stronger to be better, otherwise she will always be subjected to.

"Adri, wait for me. Why are you walking so fast?" The man's voice was extremely gentle and seductive, trying to play the role of a good man in front of Peter.

The three walked into the elevator lobby, waited for the elevator to come down, and walked in together.

Adriana stands in the middle and two men stand to the left and right.

The three are silent, the atmosphere is somewhat gloomy and depressing.

"Peter, have you dealt with the recent company gossip?"

First Brenden spoke up to break the silence in the elevator.

Peter eyed forward, "Is Uncle worried about Ms. Hale?"

"What are you talking about, Adri is my person, if I don't worry about her, who does?" Brenden reached out and wrapped his arms around Adriana's waist as he spoke, and brought her into his arms, "Adri, I heard you've been bullied recently, did you investigate who was behind the backstabbing?"

"Things have subsided, the past is the past, so why mention it again."

Adriana's face was expressionless, not wanting to dwell on these few things.

It's not going to satisfy Brenden, this thing, he wants to get involved, and she won't give Brenden a chance.

"You, you're always so silly. Didn't I already send you the results of the survey?"

As Brenden spoke, his eyes fell on Peter, "Peter, Theresa is Adri's best friend, how could she do something like that to Adri? People, know people, know people, be careful, don't look at the wrong person."

He kindly reminded.

His words made Peter's face look harder and harder, and the man forced himself to calm down and took a look at Adriana's face through the wall that was bright enough to reflect light.

Seeing her expressionless face, she was a bit puzzled by what she was thinking.

Then he said, "This matter is probably just a misunderstanding. What do you think, Ms. Hale?"

He's testing Adriana's lips.

Wondered if Adriana knew about it or not.

"Mr. Alston has a point, Theresa and I are BFFs and would not do something like this. I trust her."

Even though she had already met with Theresa, Adriana would not say it in front of Peter Mo.

Otherwise, it would have provoked Theresa's relationship with him, and that's really what she didn't want to see.

Theresa did wrong to her, although not forgiven, but she owes Theresa in the end, once this matter is over, the two grudges two love.
