Wife is a Lawyer novel Chapter 151

"No need."

Adriana shook her head, not wanting to do any more tests at all.

There are still stomach pills at home, go back and drink a little, why waste time here.

"Stand still!"

Seeing that she was about to leave, Peter chided, stepped forward and grabbed her hand, "Go with me when I tell you to, where's all the nonsense!"

"Who are you to control me?"

Adriana struggled.

"With me being your boss, how can you work properly when you are not well? Don't forget the dinner party tonight. Otherwise, you get the hell out of here!"

He reminded, Adriana immediately remembered, this evening seems to have a dinner party it.

Just the thought of continuing to be by Peter's side made her infinitely melancholy.

"Just check, what are you fierce about."

Adriana glared at him, furious.

In the end, it was an honest and docile checkup.

After the examination, the doctor advised her to rest regularly, eat more light food, don't order take-out, and exercise regularly.

Eventually, left the hospital carrying a bag of western medicine.

"Where to?"

In front of the hospital, Peter asked.

"No, I'll take my own taxi."

Wasn't the reason Peter came to the hospital with her to find out if she was pregnant?

Now that it is certain that they are not pregnant, their relationship should have been broken off long ago.

She stubbornly walked out of the hospital, stopped a cab on the side of the road, got in, and left.

Adriana took the morning off and spent the morning resting at home.

In the afternoon, I received a call from Theresa.

The moment Adriana saw the phone number, she instinctively resisted a bit and did not want to answer the phone.

Because she didn't know how to face Theresa.

After some hesitation and struggle, Adriana finally answered the phone.

Press the answer button, put the phone next to your ear, tug your lips, and want to say something.

For a while, I didn't know what to say.

"Adri, can you come out here? I want to talk to you." On the other end of the line, Theresa's tone was calm and unmistakable.

"Good."

With little hesitation, she agreed to her request straight away.

An hour later, the cafe.

Adriana sits by the window, stirring her coffee in silence, waiting for Theresa to arrive.

"Adri?"

Theresa came over and sat across from her, looking slightly pale and haggard.

"Coming? Can I get you something to drink?"

She asked.

"Feel free to do so."

"Waiter, a glass of Blue Mountain." Remembering Theresa's preference, she said to the waiter.

Despite the reunion of girlfriends, there was suddenly more than a little strangeness between the two, and yes the atmosphere was condensed and awkward.

The two looked at each other, Theresa looking at her while she just gazed down at the cup of coffee in front of her, gently stirring it.

"What's the matter, go ahead."

There was a silence between the two, and Adriana, feeling embarrassed, said.

Theresa frowned, slightly hesitant, hesitated for a moment, pursed her lips and said, "Adri, leave Peter. okay?"

The only topic of conversation with Theresa now is Peter.

Adriana gently put down her spoon and asked, "How did you meet him? I'd love to hear the story of your relationship."

Theresa: "......"

She suddenly asked this, causing Theresa some consternation, "Why do you want to know this?"

"Just interested and wanted to hear about it."

"That ...... we ...... just had a chance encounter, right? Many years ago an encounter, he fell in love with me, and then pursued me. Nothing special, and nothing to tell. "

Faced with Adriana's eyes staring straight at her, Theresa vainly lowered her eyebrows and hung her head, not daring to look directly at her.

"Like this?"

Adriana nodded, a ripple rippled through her otherwise calm heart.

At one time, she trusted Theresa in every way, without the slightest hint of doubt, but after all she had been through, she didn't feel so trustworthy anymore.

"You can let me go if you want. However, can you give me back the necklace I gave you back then?"

She asked tentatively.

"A necklace?"

Mentioning the necklace, Theresa's face sank abruptly, subconsciously raising her hand to touch her neck, and then smiled awkwardly, "Oh, you gave me the necklace, what do you want it back for now?"

This necklace was taken away by Peter a few days ago, she had a hard time getting it from Peter, and now Adriana is asking her for it, how can she give it to her!

"Back then, we were friends and girlfriends, so the necklace was given to you. But now, we are no longer BFFs, so naturally the necklace should be taken back."

She gazed straight at Theresa, sarcastic in her heart, was it really that hard to say a word of truth?

Can accept everything, but can not accept lies.

"I'll buy you one, give you a new necklace. I've been wearing this necklace for many years, I'm used to it."

"What if I insist?"

Adriana's tone was strong.

Theresa kept her hand over the necklace, clutching it tightly, as if she cared deeply about it.

"Adri, it's just a necklace, it's not that bad. Although our relationship is not as good as before, this necklace is still at least a testimony and a memory."

Theresa's cheeks were covered with sad emotions and she was immersed in grief.

Adriana looked at her and suddenly smiled.

"Just kidding, it's just a necklace, it's useless if I want it."

In fact, it is deliberately testing Theresa, and the result is obvious that Theresa is aware of the importance of that necklace to Peter.

The reason why Peter is with her is because of the necklace, and that's why he cares about the necklace.

Thinking about this, Adriana's heart gushed a burst of sourness, an inexplicable emotion rushed to the heart, some disappointment, hard, sadness.

She is just testing Theresa, even if she tells the truth, she will not compete with Theresa for a man.

But why hide it?

She couldn't help but begin to wonder what Theresa's purpose was when she repeatedly begged her to give her the necklace a few years ago.

If only she had known everything at the time ......

Think carefully.

She withdrew her thoughts, not wanting to think about them, because, more than anything, she wanted Theresa's purpose to be pure.

"Phew ......"

Theresa let out a long breath of relief and looked embarrassed, "You scared the hell out of me."

"A necklace, that important to you?"

"It's important, of course it's important."

Theresa nodded, suddenly realizing that she had spoken too much, and afraid of revealing something, she immediately explained, "After all, you gave it to me."

"Madam, your coffee, please enjoy."

The waiter brought the coffee over.

Theresa took the coffee and took a light sip without saying another word.

"Is that why you came to see me today, Peter?" volunteered Adriana.

"No, it's not just for him."

Theresa gripped the cup, gazing at Adriana, seemingly having some difficulty speaking, "I ...... I ......"

"Say what you have to say." Adriana didn't like her wheedling.

"I want you to get rid of the baby."

"Get rid of the baby?"

Adriana was a little surprised, and then suddenly remembered those things in the morning, and understood what was going on.
