Wife is a Lawyer novel Chapter 177

Adriana laughs and doesn't say anything.

Brenden immediately took out his cell phone, called one person, and sent Adriana's cell phone account number.

While waiting for the meal to be served, Adriana's cell phone rang.

30 million, as promised!

"It's here."

Adriana said while taking out a contract from her handbag and placing it in front of Brenden, "Sign it."

"What is this?"

Brenden put down his knife and fork, picked up the contract and scanned it, snickering unexpectedly, "What bars? I don't want to read it."

He dropped the contract directly in front of Adriana's heels with a look of contempt.

Adriana did not show any anger, once again pushed the contract in front of Brenden, "Yesterday it has been agreed with you, Uncle is going to change his mind?"

"What, the money is here and you want to turn the other cheek with me?"

Brenden's bony hands like jade glass of red wine, tasting a sip, the evil eye drifted to Adriana eyes hidden under the anger.

"Turning the other cheek? Are you talking about yourself? Making a deal with you is like seeking skin with a tiger. You give me 30 million, but you can take more from me, otherwise, why bother to play games with me?"

Adriana leaned on the card seat, looking sideways out the window, sighed, "You see nothing but profit, and I'm just a pawn for you. What I'm doing now is to ensure my own rights, otherwise, maybe one day I'll be like your ex-wife and die without even knowing how I died. Isn't it?"

One day husband and wife.

Until now, Adriana can't understand how Brenden killed his wife with his own hands in the hospital that day.

Suddenly, Adriana had an idea that she must take time to practice Taekwondo for self-defense recently.

Otherwise, it is really too dangerous.

"Heh."

The man smiled, his eyes unfathomable as he looked at her, then picked up the contract and signed his name in a dragon's flight.

"Adriana, I admire you. Not afraid in the face of danger, not surprised when things go wrong, a rare woman."

He shook his head, "Unfortunately, it's not the one I like, otherwise, I would have you for myself."

"Is that so?"

Adriana smiled lightly and raised her glass to clink with his, "To you, thank you for your unloving, I can't thank you enough."

The heart is secretly glad.

Although Brenden was ruthless, at least he was not the type of man who was flirtatious and did not lay hands on her.

......

Three days later, Adriana took the time to go to the hospital and get the paternity test report.

The report shows that she is not related to Luis by blood.

This is the second time that there is no relationship with Luis, Adriana's hanging heart finally fell.

But the emotions are somewhat but somewhat complicated.

I vaguely hope that Luis will be the child born in October, but I don't.

She was still relieved to see the results of the report.

That afternoon, Adriana picked Helen up from school and took her with her to the YA Law Firm.

"Adri, what brings you here?"

Jenkins, who was looking over the case, saw Adriana and was in an excellent mood. Looking at Helen, he walked over and picked her up, "Good girl, call an uncle."

Helen grinned and shouted in a milky voice, "Uncle."

"That's good."

Jenkins couldn't help but compliment, "Much better than your mother. Let's go, uncle will take you out to buy something."

Said hello to Adriana and left with Helen in her arms straight away.

Adriana then went to Vivian's office and pushed in the door.

"Get out, who gave you permission to come in without knocking?"

In the office, a chortle suddenly burst out.

Adriana raised her eyebrows, pursed her lips, and raised her hand to knock on the door, "Miss Vivian."

A familiar voice fell into her ears, Vivian immediately looked up, only to find that the person who came in was Adriana.

"Yah, Ms. Hale, why didn't you call when you got here?"

"If you are given notice, how else can you check your post?"

Adriana flirted.

Walked up to her and gave a thumbs up, "Not bad, more and more domineering president model."

"Gee, Ms. Hale you don't make fun of me."

After being teased by her, Vivian blushed and went to pour her a cup of coffee.

Having been with Adriana for many years, she has long been familiar with Adriana's appetite.

"How's it going, how is the company operating now?"

Since the company was founded, she has barely bothered with it.

Today I had something to do with Vivian, so I just had to ask.

"It's okay. But the scale is not as good as before, also gone a group of competent people, took away a lot of customer resources, the performance is also the previous one-third of the bar."

Vivian scratched his head, "Ms. Hale, I'm sorry it didn't meet your expectations. I'll get the performance sheet for you to see."

"No no no."

Adriana waved her hand, "That's good enough, you're really great, shows I have a good eye. Actually, I came over today to ask about Brenden."

"Oh, I already found out, I forgot to tell you."

She turned to her desk and took out a file and handed it to Adriana, "Look, this guy, well-known food blogger, mixed race but a native, now immigrating to Los Angeles, named ......"

"Named Beatrice, Chinese name Juliana."

Without waiting for Vivian to finish her sentence, Adriana said directly.

Vivian was shocked, "Ms. Hale, how did you know?"

"I know her!"

Adriana's pupils were slightly open and she looked incredulously at the photo of the woman she knew in Los Angeles.

It is the hostess of an estate in Los Angeles, a well-known food blogger, with whom she has a very good relationship.

The last time she went to Los Angeles with Peter, Peter met with distinguished guests, and she arranged the meeting place at Beatrice's estate.

As a result, that day from the Beatrice estate to leave the rainstorm, and in that day Peter a valuable car non-trapped in the pothole.

"Ms. Hale? Ms. Hale?"

Vivian sat beside her and, noticing that she was lost in thought, called out a few times.

"Hmm?"

Adriana returned to her senses and immediately looked through the information, but there was no more specific and detailed information, "That's all there is?"

"Sorry, I really did my best. Investigating into her specific information, I have used almost all my contacts."

Vivian was helpless.

"It's okay, that's a lot of information already."

Adriana patted her on the shoulder, followed by a look at the man on the Tibetan side who was in close contact with Brenden.

The photo shows just an extraordinarily young girl named: Simeon Vega.

"Why is the photo so blurry?"

Blurred to the point that only the five features are visible and in black and white.

"Only this one photo was found."

"Keep checking!"

Adriana has a vague feeling that Brenden must be hiding some big conspiracy behind the scenes.

Then put the information away, "It's been hard on you lately, rest for a while when you're done."

Afterwards, several people had dinner together.

Adriana said to Jenkins, "Brother, I'm a bit busy in the last few days, could you please take Helen for me, please?"

Originally, shewanted Vivian to help her with the children, but for the last while, Vivian needed to investigate Brenden.

There is also the matter of dealing with the company, she can not cope with it alone.
