Wife is a Lawyer novel Chapter 143

Besides, now that there is absolutely no contact with Theresa, naturally, I don't want to meet her again to avoid embarrassment.

"Can I not go?" He asked.

"Uncle, you've said it's a family dinner. She, Adriana, isn't qualified to go yet, is she?"

It was at this point that Peter walked up next to the two and sarcastically spoke.

"Peter, what brings you here?"

Brenden did not answer his question positively and asked him rhetorically.

Peter held a document in his hand, his eyes glanced at Adriana, but saw the woman's small face parted, looking the other way, a look not willing to look at him.

"I came over to see Adriana!"

"What do you want with Adri?" Brenden's eyes lit up with interest.

Peter waved the papers in his hand, "Some work stuff."

"Since it's a work-related matter, just go directly to her minister."

Between the two conversations, the atmosphere is gloomy, only a few moments of time is already the smoke and war is diffuse, wafting a strong smell of gunpowder, as if the next moment is a killing.

"Adriana is the one you put in, I can only go to her for her work mistakes, not the minister. Besides, her relationship with Uncle is known to everyone, what do you think the minister can do to her?"

Peter's words were so eloquent that Brenden was speechless in a few words.

"Uncle, is there anything else? Make yourself at home if there's nothing."

His attitude was icy and he was unfazedby Brenden.

"You have something to say directly, I'm listening." The man shrugged his shoulders and raised his eyebrows, just like a breezy posture.

Peter was silent for a moment, sort of acquiescing.

Throwing the documents in her hand directly into Adriana's arms, "How do you work? There are obvious holes in all these documents and you can't see them?"

The document was suddenly thrown over to Adriana, and in her panic, she didn't catch it, and it slipped from her hands, but Brenden was faster and caught it and handed it to her.

He smiled and his tone carried a slight taste of spoiling, "Still so stupid and fussy, I can't help you."

Adriana was disgusted but didn't show it, "Thank you."

Faintly said a thank you, looking down at the document in his hand, "No problem ah, I all ......"

She said as she flipped through the pages, looking at the places marked with a black marker that did have omissions.

After all, it is the law, many documents are biting, that is, a mistake is likely to cause great impact.

She went through three documents in a row, and sure enough, there were problems with all of them.

"Mr. Alston, I am sorry, I ...... may be my oversight, I will ...... later"

Adriana apologized repeatedly and explained.

However, Peter did not give her face at all, "What's the use of apologizing? I seriously doubt your professional standards, as a lawyer, you can also make such low-level mistakes?"

His words were sharp and his tone slightly sullen.

The commotion startled colleagues in the office, many of whom poked their heads in and looked over.

"I'm sorry."

She looked down at the floor and ran out of excuses to retort.

These days, because of Peter's last impact on her caused a great psychological shadow, even at work are not well adjusted to the emotions.

And it is for this reason that the work is negligent.

But wrong is wrong, there is no reason or need to explain.

"You've caused serious property damage to the company, and if it weren't for you and Uncle, I'd have told you to get lost! Now, you are given two choices. One, make up for your transgressions, or two, resign and get out!"

Peter was gloomy from front to back with an angular handsome face, without a trace of a good face, let alone a gentle tone.

Adriana does not know how cold the polar ice is, but can clearly feel how cold Peter is at this time!

"Peter, Adri ......"

"Uncle, this is a company, if she's wrong, she's wrong, and you can't be tolerant of everything just because you have a relationship with her. The company forbids nepotism, and it would be the greatest mercy for me to give her the opportunity to make amends."

Even to Brenden, Peter still did not give him any face.

This matter, Adriana is at fault party, let Brenden more reasons, now can not be said.

"Okay, I'll make up for my mistakes myself."

Adriana clutched the file and raised her eyes to gaze at Peter, "What should I do?"

Peter gave a cold eye sweep and dropped a sentence, "Come to my office." After saying that, he directly turned around and left.

The moment he turned around, Peter caught a glimpse of those colleagues standing at the entrance of the Legal Department, just an ice-cold look shot past, and all of them were scared and scattered in panic.

In a moment, only Brenden and Adriana were left in the hallway.

"What's wrong with you? As a professional lawyer, you can make such a low-level mistake?"

Brenden put away his playful smile and his serious face had a somber air, as if a storm was brewing, "Don't forget what you have to do, if you get kicked out because of your job, I can't protect you. But, there's no guarantee for Helen's safety either!"

This time, Brenden was completely enraged.

After a serious warning, he walked away.

Adriana stood still, took a deep breath, and closed her eyes, raw.

Faced with Brenden's uncertainty, just like the summer weather, sometimes sunny, sometimes stormy, unpredictable, so that people can not catch his real thoughts.

By and large, this is Adriana's true realization of what it means to have a shifty personality.

After calming down in place for a while, she went upstairs with the documents in her arms and headed straight for Peter's office.

Knock Knock-

Knocked on the door and Peter's voice came from inside, "Enter."

She pushed the door open and walked in.

"Close the door."

The man raised his eyes and barked a warning.

Adriana frowned, hesitated a little, but finally closed the office door.

Subconsciously, she resisted the opportunity to spend time alone with Peter and was even a little afraid.

"Mr. Alston, may I ask what I should do?" She asked as she walked up to the desk, keeping a safe distance from him.

"The business cooperation with Vashon Firm caused the company a direct loss of 20 million dollars because of your oversight, as well as Xinlian, Yuzhong, a total of three companies, all because of your oversight on the contract issue, resulting in a direct loss. What qualifications do you think you have to continue to work in the company? I seriously doubt that you are not bought by the other company."

With a Parker pen in his hand, he tapped the desk heavily with a furious look on his face.

Adriana lowered her eyebrows and hung her head, well aware of her mistake, "I'm sorry, I didn't expect this kind of thing to happen either. It was my sloppy work, and I am willing to take the result. Just, what should I do to recover the company's loss?"

She asked.

"As a lawyer, your professionalism is a certain amount of meticulousness and focus, and you can't afford any slip-ups. You have several years of professional experience yourself and you will still have such problems, please give me a reason."

The man dropped his pen on the table, leaned back, wrapped his arms around his chest, leaned lazily in the executive chair, and waited for her answer.
