Wife is a Lawyer novel Chapter 156

Alvin pulled out a slender black and red brocade box from his briefcase.

"I don't know what you like, so I bought you a simple necklace, see if you like it?"

Alvin opened the brocade box inside the box quietly lies a platinum four-leaf clover necklace, in the sunlight, the emerald four-leaf clover pendant crystal translucent, reflecting the silk luster, beautiful.

"Wow, that's beautiful."

Adriana immediately spotted the necklace and liked it very much.

"Cough cough ......"

Peter, who was standing on the side, finally couldn't help himself, raised his hand and made a fist in front of his nose and coughed gently, as if to remind them that there was still him in it.

"It's not good for a girl to casually accept things from people, right?" Peter reminded.

When she said that, Adriana's face changed instantly.

The long, slender fingers flicked the four-leaf clover pendant, and then slowly retracted her hand, "Senior, thank you for your kindness. This gift is too expensive, I really can't accept it."

Although the words came out of Peter's mouth with some unkindness, I have to say that what he said is still very reasonable, and it is really not good to take things from others casually.

Alvin's good-looking eyebrows knitted slightly, subconsciously raised his eyes to look at Peter, his gaze between him and Adriana back and forth between the two.

Then added: "Adri, this stuff is cheap, bought from a roadside stall, but it's only a few hundred dollars, I also gave Flora, you all have it."

He confessed.

"So, really?"

"When did I ever tell a lie?"

"Okay then, I'll take it, thanks." She really likes this necklace Alvin bought, but ......

She has never liked to accept things from people casually.

"No credit, I like it a lot, but it's not appropriate to accept it. So, how much, I'll transfer you."

She raised her phone and opened the What's App.

"This is a green gemstone from Burma, which is worth a lot of money. If I'm not wrong, this craft should be a one-of-a-kind necklace handcrafted by a top Burmese master, right? Hmm? Alvin."

This is clear to Peter at a glance.

In any case, in terms of experience, he is not at the same level compared to Alvin.

Alvin never lies, but for the sake of Adriana, he would rather lie and hope that Adriana will accept the necklace.

For a while, Peter's heart slightly angry, this damn woman is really a rotten peach blossom, everywhere to provoke, everywhere to stay.

An inexplicable sour taste haunts Peter, indescribably depressed and irritable.

"Sh...... what? Senior, is it true what he said?"

The smile on Adriana's cheeks instantly tightened, thinking that what Peter said should not be false.

"Don't you listen to him ......"

"I bullshit?"

Peter took a big step to Adriana's face and pointed to the black brocade box in her hand, "This is the box that Hunter from Burma used to pack after he created the gem. Do you know how much this box is worth? For this box, Hunter offered it for at least six figures."

Adriana looked at Peter, then at Alvin, and then down at the brocade box she was holding, exquisitely crafted and carved with reliefs that were lifelike and very beautiful.

Take a closer look, those workmanship treatment is very fine, and is purely handmade.

Now, she finally believed Peter's words.

"Senior ...... this, this is too expensive."

She slipped the necklace to Alvin, "It's too expensive, I don't have money, I can't afford it, I'd rather not take it."

Alvin looked down at the brocade box of necklaces she had shoved back in his hand, and his sad eyes fell on Peter's body.

"Big brother, I just love Adri, can you leave me alone."

He was quite helpless.

At the moment, the lovers meet, the situation is unusually ...... bizarre.

Adriana was confessed by Peter in the morning and by Alvin in the afternoon.

Just feel the suppression of years of peach blossom luck in this year all find back, pile up together.

It's really ...... flattering.

"That ...... you guys talk, you guys talk, I'll go in first." She beat a retreat and nimbly left the place of right and wrong.

Alvin and Peter were the only ones left in the parking lot, and the two of them watched the fleeing little woman, and only when she disappeared around the corner did they withdraw their gaze.

"Alvin."

Peter called his name, "Do you know why I've always refused to let you guys be together?"

"You like her too?"

This was obvious to Alvin, "But what about Theresa? She's your fiancée, Adri's best friend, where are you putting her?"

"You should know about Luis, I never told you, in fact ...... Luis' mommy is Adriana."

To this day, Peter finally could not resist and told Alvin the truth.

He felt that if he didn't say anything now, it would definitely trigger a misunderstanding between the two brothers and would also put him in an awkward situation.

"What? You said ......"

"Keep your voice down."

Peter glanced around and gestured for him to calm down.

Alvin's eyes were wide with disbelief and amazement.

"I also found out about it after Adriana returned home."

"How do you know?"

"I had a DNA test done and it established her relationship with Luis." Peter told truthfully, "I'm sorry for hiding it from you for a long time, I'm just telling you now ...... Well ......"

He has not finished a sentence, Alvin a heavy fist smashed on Peter's chest, "you beast, why did not say earlier?Adri is my first love, the result ...... actually ...... was spoiled by you! "

"Huh."

Peter smiled, a smile from the heart, extraordinarily straightforward.

"As compensation, I'll give 10% profit for this cooperation." He patted Alvin's shoulder.

"What ten percent? At the very least, fifty percent!"

Alvin was angry and helpless.

But he knew that Peter would never joke about it.

"Thirty percent."

"No, at least 40% of the profit must be conceded as compensation. Otherwise, if I rise to the occasion, you will be finished."

Alvin raised his eyebrows badly and threatened.

"Deal."

Peter readily agreed.

It was Alvin who was desperate to the point of heartache, looked down at the necklace in his hand and sighed, "I went to a lot of trouble to find the master to make the necklace, now well, the effort is all for nothing. I don't care, this money, you have to compensate me!"

Peter snatched the necklace from his hand, "Contact Hank later and pay the original price."

"That's more like it."

He let out a sigh.

"Come on, go inside, a few company bosses are still waiting." Peter patted him on the shoulder.

"No go no go."

This sudden shift was acceptable to him, but it required a transition period.

A heart likes the woman, crush for many years, see again, he finally mustered up the courage to confess, but not this love has long since died.
