Wife is a Lawyer novel Chapter 161

Adriana walked up to her, looked at her own cute little girl, liked it so much that she leaned down and gave her a kiss on the cheek, "Good morning, my dear little baby."

"Hee hee hee, good morning mommy oh."

Helen gave her a good morning kiss on the cheek, too.

"Well, hurry up and eat, you have to find school later."

It was time for the children to go to school, and Helen returned from abroad and had to hurry to find a school in order to do so.

"Okay, Mommy."

The two had a pleasant meal together and then set off to find a school.

The schools for children are not that easy to find, and the ones closer to her neighborhood have no more places, so Helen can't even enroll.

Farther away, she is also worried about the inconvenience of going to and from school.

Finally, I found a bilingual kindergarten with a lot of connections.

On the third day, Helen went to school and Adriana squared off to the office.

In the company, everything Rene is unharmed, which makes Adriana feel more relaxed.

But things didn't go as smoothly as expected ......

At noon, Theresa called her and the two of them arranged to have lunch together.

Western Restaurant.

Adriana packed up everything after work and arrived at the western restaurant when Theresa was waiting for her.

"Sorry, I was busy beforehand, so I kept you waiting."

She sat across from Theresa, keeping it polite and distant.

It seems that after a series of events, the relationship between the two has long since returned to the beginning.

It is also because there is no longer that intimacy that it is important to remain polite.

"What's the point of being so foreign to me, have a seat and see what you want to eat?"

Theresa is full of smiles, that affectionate look as if the two are back to the beginning, the relationship is too good to be true.

Adriana nodded and glanced at the menu and said directly to the waiter, "One rare steak, one pasta, and one tiramisu, please."

"You still have the same taste as before, it hasn't changed." Theresa said with a smile.

Adriana nodded, "Well, it's been that way for so many years."

For Western food, Adriana does not have much to settle for, and likes to eat just a little.

Theresa ordered some meals and the two sat together, sipping coffee and waiting quietly for lunch.

However, the atmosphere was invariably a little awkward.

The two don't look at each other, they just look down and hold their coffee.

"Go ahead, what do you want from me?"

Adriana doesn't like to be so abrasive, still prefer to be straightforward, see Theresa several times are wanting to say, but finally can't help but ask her.

"It's not much of a problem."

Theresa took a sip of her coffee, then stirred it with a spoon, pursed her lips, and glanced at Adriana from time to time out of the corner of her eye.

"Adri, I asked you to come here today because I actually have something to discuss with you."

She was quite polite and spoke quite politely.

"Go ahead, we're all friends, no need to talk so politely."

Adriana looked up at her, and for a moment, their eyes met, but Theresa immediately looked down and avoided her gaze, somewhat evasively.

In the end, I don't know what she's being vain about.

It was this feeling that made Adriana feel that Theresa was really up to something, and that it should be something important.

Otherwise, it is not so difficult to say.

"Let's talk about it later, dinner is here, let's eat first."

At that moment, the western food was delivered and the two started to eat.

Theresa and her chatted with each other about work matters, and the atmosphere was still lively and not so awkward.

Within a short time, the two finished eating.

Adriana saw that it was getting late and said, "Theresa, just say what you want, it's already one o'clock and it's not long before you have to go to work."

Work at two o'clock, it's still an hour before the start time.

Theresa raised her eyes and gave Adriana a meaningful glance before biting her lip with her teeth, something she could hardly say.

"If, however, you haven't figured out what to say, let's talk tonight."

After going through a lot of things, the emotions between the two are not as good as they used to be.

So with Theresa, Adriana doesn't have the patience she used to have.

The tone is slightly detached and cold.

"Don't, you wait, wait a minute."

Theresa took Adriana's hand and looked at her, frowning, "I said, I said."

The good thing is that the two of them are in a private room in a western restaurant, and some of their words will not be heard by outsiders.

Theresa bowed her head, as if she was simmering with emotion, and as if she was thinking carefully about what to say.

The two raised their eyes and looked at each other, and then Theresa finally spoke up and asked, "Adri, do you have someone you like now?"

She asked.

The sudden question is not expected by Adriana, but it is reasonable.

"No."

She answered directly.

"So you and Uncle?"

"Brenden likes me and is pursuing me, and I'm just trying to date."

There was no way out, Adriana could only answer this way, because she could not explain clearly the relationship between her and Brenden now.

Much less is it possible to tell Theresa everything as it is.

"So, huh?"

Theresa laughed awkwardly and for once fell into silence.

For a long time, they both looked down and drank their coffee, and for a moment, Adriana almost got up to leave before Theresa said, "Are you going to get married?"

"Still thinking about it."

"So are you planning to have children?"

She trailed off.

"Why do you ask that all of a sudden?" Adriana was a little curious about Theresa's question.

Theresa wrinkled her brow, her eyes flashing, "Adri, Peter he ...... wants to break off the engagement with me."

She said, she bowed her head, her face sad and melancholy, mixed with a forlorn and miserable look.

A mixture of five flavors.

"What do you mean by these words, when you tell me?"

Adriana's eyes looked straight at Theresa and questioned her openly, trying to understand what she meant.

Don't want to beat around the bush and bother your brain.

"I ......Adri, I know that Peter likes you. So for the past few days I've been thinking about why, and finally I realized that the reason he doesn't like me is ...... because I can't have children."

She said that she had red eyes, tears in the eyes, and then wept, and her pitiful appearance was heartbreaking.

But the relationship between the two has long since returned to the beginning, even Adriana saw her crying, but also not as heartbroken as before.

Handed her the napkin on the table with a cold and bland face, "Why do you say that? I don't think Peter should be that kind of person."

She wasn't very familiar with Peter either, and wasn't sure what kind of person Peter was.

However, Peter had said that the engagement with Theresa was solely because of the necklace, which made him mistakenly believe that Theresa was the person who had saved him.

So there is no reason why Peter would dislike Theresa, whether she would have children or not.

"Really, everything I said is true. adri, why don't you believe me?"

Theresa was a little emotional and took Adriana's hand and choked up, "These days, she's been avoiding me, not wanting to see me, not even ...... answering even my phone calls."

She said, while crying, that sad and desperate look let Adriana look and some ...... in the heart.
