Wife is a Lawyer novel Chapter 137

"Adri, you ...... are a silly girl." Brenden shook his head helplessly and raised his hand to poke her head, "So silly it hurts."

Adriana is disgusted with the way Brenden is making a show, but still her face shows a smile, "I know you care about me, but, you should trust Theresa. she is really a nice girl."

"OK, OK, OK, I believe you, I believe you."

Brenden did not continue to argue with Adriana.

Instead, Adriana looked ahead and could clearly see Peter watching her through the reflective wall of the elevator.

In that moment, her eyes flickered and she looked sideways to the other side, avoiding his hot gaze.

Ding--

The elevator stopped.

The trio exited the elevator and went directly into Adriana's home.

Adriana poured Peter a cup of hot water first, "Mr. Alston, didn't you say you were thirsty? Hurry up and drink some water."

Peter just sat on the sofa, the woman's attentiveness made his face sink.

Accepting the warm boiled water, he couldn't help but tease, "So anxious to send off your guests, aren't you afraid that I'll disturb the beauty of you two?"

Raised his eyebrows, smiled and hooked his lips, "You can pretend I don't exist."

Pretend he doesn't exist?

Adriana gave him a blank look, suddenly feeling that Peter was insulting her intelligence.

"Peter, you're a man and Adri's a girl, can't you see she's shy?" Brenden leaned lazily on the sofa and said deliberately.

At that, Adriana raised her hand and touched her cheek, frowning and retorting, "What nonsense, I'm not blushing."

What the hell does this bastard Brenden want, and what does it mean to talk nonsense in front of Peter?

Peter looked down and sipped his tea without squealing.

And then, Adriana sat aside and the three just stood there.

Adriana turned on the TV, holding the remote control, and kept switching channels, but whichever program she watched didn't feel like the right drama for the three of them.

Then, he asked, "What do you want to see?"

"As you wish."

"It's all good."

Both answered ...... almost exactly the same way.

Casual?

Eventually, she tuned the TV series to the cartoon channel, and I don't believe you won't be bored yet.

The corners of Peter's mouth twitched slightly, "You usually watch cartoons at home?"

"Uh-huh, a problem?"

She nodded her head in a serious manner, with a hint of impatience in her tone, "No one said that adults can't watch cartoons."

"Heh, you're chic."

Peter didn't say anything, bowed his head and drank his tea

"Adri, when are you planning to stay with me?"

Suddenly, Brenden, who was silent over there, spoke up.

But when these words came out, both Peter and Adriana froze.

"With you?"

Adriana frowned and looked at Brenden, but because Brenden was on Peter's side, she saw Peter's face when her eyes were slightly raised.

That one face with a red face, gloomy and terrible.

Adriana pulled her lips, half of the time did not know what to say good, lowered her head, politely refused, "I prefer to live alone, for the time being have not considered this matter."

Brenden!

Knowing that Peter is here, but also must be a strong in front of Peter to say some ambiguous topics, really is ...... amazing desire for performance!

In the end, I don't know what deep hatred there is between him and Peter that warrants such mutual torture.

"Adri, we're going to be together eventually, it's better to get used to it earlier now, isn't it. "

Brenden presses on, seemingly determined to get an accurate answer from Adriana today.

Adriana grips the remote control in her hand, her eyes, though fixed on the TV, are vacant and thoughtful.

"We'll talk about it later, I'm not in a hurry yet."

She looked sideways and wanted to look at Brenden to speak, but as soon as she turned her head she saw Peter's face, and she instantly looked away again, avoiding Peter's sharp gaze, "Grandpa also said that there is no hurry. You're pushing me step by step like this, it will make me ...... afraid of marriage."

I pulled a random excuse, not wanting to continue this conversation with Brenden, "It's getting late, I'm a little tired, so if you guys don't have anything to do, please leave."

Two big men sitting in her house like two big gods really don't feel safe at all.

Double the pressure.

"Uncle, come on, I happen to have something to talk to you about."

Peter took a sip of his tea, put the cup on the table, and got up to address Brenden.

"Then take your time and don't see me off."

Adriana seemed worried that Brenden would not leave, and immediately followed Peter's words, blocking Brenden's way back.

In that case, what else can Brenden say.

"Get some rest early, I'll take you to work tomorrow."

Brenden came around from the coffee table to Adriana and gave her a hug.

At that moment, Peter's face sank a few points and left the living room at once.

The anger in his heart could not be suppressed and was about to explode.

Not long after, Brenden also left.

After sending the two gods away, Adriana finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Simply wash up and lie down on the bed to rest.

However, just as the sleepiness hit, the phone rang again.

After glancing at the caller ID, it was an unfamiliar phone number, hesitated for a moment or answered it, "Hello, who is it?"

"Is this AdrianaMs. Hale, please?"

"Yes, what's wrong?"

"We are here Waverly Public Security Bureau, your friend Ms. Brenda is now in the police station, please come and collect the person."

A man on the other side said.

"What, Brenda? I ......"

She wanted to say that she didn't know Brenda well, but she thought that Brenda was now Vivian's client and she had had a difficult relationship before, so she couldn't ignore it.

"What's wrong with her, why is she at the police station, what's the crime?"

Followed up with questions, trying to figure out the specifics.

"She was on the street, bullied by a few punks, reported to the police, and now she's at the police station, crying and not daring to leave."

"Fine, fine, I know."

Adriana, a hundred times helpless, raised her hand and rubbed her hair, looking a little agitated.

This Vivian used to be a client of her brother Jenkins, just because of the grudge entanglement with Peter, so she took the initiative to accept Brenda's case, and so many things happened as a result.

Until now feel that those things are linked together at the beginning, suspicious.

But she didn't bother to think about it.

Changed clothes, left the neighborhood and went straight to the police station.

But as the car drove slowly down the road, she looked at the reflection every now and then and always felt that a black car behind her trailed all the way from the entrance to the neighborhood to Gapryae Road.

"Who the hell is it?"

Adriana was confused and a little intimidated, so she sped up and ran all the way directly towards the police station.

But she was fast, and that one sedan was even faster, tracking directly to the entrance of the police station and then stopping not far away.

Adriana was puzzled, but she didn't dare to look closely at who it was from a distance.

Then enter the police station, directly find a police officer in the police station for help, "Comrade police, just came all the way behind a person followed all the way to the police station outside, can you go to see?"
