Wife is a Lawyer novel Chapter 189

Adriana felt that if there were some more things weighing on her shoulders, she would really break down and die.

Suddenly, she thought of something and immediately called Jenkins.

"Brother, where are you now?" She asked.

"It's at the hospital for your discharge."

"Brother, now can you do me a favor and buy a ticket to Los Angeles immediately and immediately, and take Helen with you, please?"

Vivian is nowhere to be found, and The Alston family is thinking of Helen.

The only person she can trust is Jenkins, and she herself has to stay behind to continue the search for Vivian's whereabouts.

Jenkins was silent for a while, and Adriana knew he must have questions to ask.

However, a few seconds later, he said, "Okay, I'll get right on it."

"That's fine, call me when you get to the airport and I'll have someone send Helen's passport over. Someone will pick you up when you get over to Los Angeles."

"Got it."

Out of 100 percent trust in Adriana, Jenkins knew more or less what was going on at Hayley's place.

Although overwhelmed by shock, Jenkins did not have the courage to ask questions.

The reason for this is naturally because he is the one who started it all.

How could Adriana have gone down that path of no return if he hadn't been stricken with cancer five years ago and needed money urgently for treatment?

And now that she is in such a situation, Jenkins, in addition to guilt, only wants to make up for this sister who is like his own sister.

Here, Adriana had just hung up a phone call when a person came knocking on the door.

She went to open the door and the person standing outside was Brenden.

Adriana, not surprised, turned and walked in, sat on the couch and couldn't help but smile, "Today, you're the third one to come to me. Let's be straightforward about what you want."

I really don't want to keep dealing with it.

Something had happened and no one was there to care for her except Jenkins.

Adriana felt sorry for herself for a while, but when she thought about it, it wasn't without reason.

The reason is because she has no home, no mother and father care and love, no closest elders in the world, to give her a little more warmth.

It is a technical job to be reborn, she probably sinned too much in her last life, God let her come to be punished.

Brenden's face was not good, glanced at Adriana, went around and sat down on the sofa, poured himself a cup of tea, took a sip and asked, "The old man came to see you?"

Adriana's head rested on the sofa backrest, staring at the ceiling, expressionless: "This is not thanks to you? Then I went to stimulate Peter, did not expect Peter this time will do things so aggressive, do not care about The Alston family face? Watching you miscalculate, I really feel sad for you ....... All the plans collapsed, the effort was in vain."

"Adriana!"

In a fit of rage, the man got up and walked over to Adriana, jamming her neck, "Do you want to die?"

Brenden was frustrated by the plan's failure, and now being stimulated by Adriana, it ignited a small fire in his heart, which started a blazing fire.

"Is it that you don't even dare to kill me if you want to die. After all, you haven't achieved your goal, have you?"

Adriana's eyes were contemptuous as she brushed his hand away, "The Alston family has one eye on you and me right now, and you're doing it now to tell The Alston family what you're really up to? If anything happens to me, you won't end up any better."

She was very sure of it.

"It's not good to be smug and too smart."

The mouth said so, but Brenden finally let go of Adriana.

Adriana's hanging heart fell, secretly relieved.

Having seen Brenden's ruthlessness, how could he not be afraid?

Brenden sat for a long time without speaking, Adriana watched the time pass little by little, some anxiety in her heart, later to send Helen's passport, if Brenden has been here, it is difficult for her to get out.

What's more, Brenden must not know about it.

"Planning to have dinner here? Say what you want, I don't have the patience for it."

Now that the partnership with Brenden is over, she doesn't have to work for Alston Group.

The most fortunate thing is that the new YY Law Firm was established in Vivian's name, which gives her some peace of mind.

"Peter proposed to you, did you say yes?"

Brenden asked.

"Do you expect me to say yes, or no?"

Adriana asked instead of answering.

"Huh."

He suddenly smiled, a wicked smile, so that people can not understand his mind.

Seeing his attitude like that, Adriana was silent, wanting to hear what Brenden really wanted to say, and even once wanted to ask him if Vivian was the one he took.

But he was afraid that if Brenden hadn't kidnapped the man, he would have angered Brenden and inflicted revenge.

The two fell into silence once again, eyes measuring each other, rather like a psychological protracted battle.

After a while, Adriana took the lead and asked, "Now that you have no more leverage in your hands, you wouldn't still want to threaten me to work for you, would you?"

She side-stepped the question to test whether Brenden had kidnapped Vivian or not.

"The handle?"

The man rubbed his chin with his long fingers, "Vivian, is that enough?"

"Brenden!"

Adriana stood up in a flash, flaming, "Did you really take her?"

Originally only in doubt Brenden, now he really said it, Adriana doubly incredulous.

Immediately picked up a cup of tea in front of him towards Brenden's face and splashed it over, "You bastard, I'm telling you, I've called the police, not afraid to die, you just wait for the police to come and arrest you."

People have a bottom line, and Adriana's bottom line is repeatedly provoked by Brenden.

Before he caught Helen as a handle, and now Vivian as a handle.

Even so, there was no way she would have been able to publicize the lie that they were getting engaged to the public.

Already knowing that she was Luis' biological parents, Adriana couldn't imagine how things would turn out if she was engaged to Brenden.

I don't know what Luis would call her if that day ever came.

"Calling the police?"

Brenden smiled instead of being angry and spread his hands, "Where's the proof?"

If you want to call the police without evidence, then you have to be believed by the police to do so.

"Evidence ......"

Adriana froze, wanting evidence she simply did not have, just now had been thinking about Helen, and did not come to be ready to record.

"I said how could you be so obedient to cooperate with me, dare I say you are secretly investigating me behind my back? Adriana, you have a lot of guts, huh?"

The man's eyes are slightly narrowed, a pair of shady eyes harboring a stern and murderous aura.

"What's wrong with investigating you, you're investigating me less?"

It is really a bastard, only allow the state officials to set fire to the people not to light a lamp.

Brenden's eyes were deep as he gazed at Adriana, and did not speak for a long time, the pair of eyes seemed like an invisible weapon, shocking Adriana's body chills.

Jingle Bell-

Suddenly, a cell phone ringing broke the stalemate.

Adriana glanced down at her phone's display, and there it was, Jenkins!

"Excuse me, I'm going out to take a call."

Picked up the phone and walked to the balcony, turning back every now and then, looking defensively at Brenden sitting on the couch, very alert.
