Wife is a Lawyer novel Chapter 190

"Okay, I got it, something's going on right now."

On the phone, just told Jenkins that she had something going on, but didn't say anything else.

Hanging up the phone, Adriana returned to the living room, "Tell me, what is it that you came over here today? What's it going to take to get Vivian released?"

Vivian is a person who has followed her all the way, suffered a lot, and is a girl who is hardworking and motivated.

Now it is because of her, how can we turn a blind eye to this?

"It's easy to save Vivian."

Brenden leaned lazily on the sofa, hands on the sofa backrest, a pair of eyes flirtatious look at Adriana.

"Say."

Adriana doesn't have time to talk to her.

Ding--

At that moment, a text message came from Brenden's phone.

He tapped the screen with his phone and then looked meaningfully at Adriana, "So eager to get Helen out of Waverly, what, afraid I'll eat her? Or are you afraid that The Alston family will make a move on her?"

Brenden is well-informed.

To be precise, keeping an eye on Adriana at all times.

Like a fish on a chopping board, at the mercy of others.

is how Adriana feels right now.

"Planning to supervise me for the rest of my life? I'm curious, if you covet The Alston family property, how come you didn't take on Peter openly and honestly, instead of using side channels?

Wouldn't you feel mean.

"Bright and square? A contest?"

Brenden's face changed and his pupils glared, "I'd like to, but have the people of The Alston family ever given me a chance? If I had that chance, I wouldn't be so unscrupulous."

He let out a sigh, with all the emotion of helplessness.

"I don't want to get involved in what's going on between you guys, let alone interfere. But, you have to let Vivian go now, or else, don't blame me for being unkind to you."

After saying that, Adriana added, "I can be your hostage, Helen and Vivian are innocent, you shouldn't do it to a child and an innocent person."

She really thinks Brenden is a very mean and shameless man, but now she has no ability to fight back.

"Talking to me on terms, do you have that qualification."

His lips curled up in an arc, smiling contemptuously and sarcastically.

"I'm not that qualified. But Brenden, don't you forget, if you push me hard enough, I can just say yes to Peter's advances and be with him, and then, do you think there's still a chance for you?"

This is Adriana's last ace in the hole.

Other than that, she really doesn't have any qualifications to fight against Brenden.

"That's a good idea."

He nodded, his fingers on the sofa tapping once or twice, thoughtfully, "I'm not going to claim back the 30 million I gave you. You only need to help me with one thing now."

"I can promise you things, but I also need your help to get Helen out of Waverly without any problems, and, I need to video-confirm with Vivian that she's safe."

Now, the people of The Alston family are divided into three factions.

Brenden is using her relationship with Peter to plot secrets; Peter wants to marry her; The Alston family, the old man, doesn't want her to have any dealings with Brenden and Peter, but wants to take the baby away from her.

At the same time, she broke up with Theresa completely.

Survival on all sides, only in the cracks.

"Deal."

Brenden readily agreed and waved to Adriana, "Come here."

Adriana hesitated for a moment, moved to sit next to him, listened with his ear, he whispered his plans and arrangements, Adriana's eyebrows gradually wrinkled.

"Really ...... really want to do this?"

"What do you say?"

"I ......"

Adriana wanted to say something but had absolutely no reason to object to what he said. "You might as well let me take a video with Vivian first, I want to make sure she's physically safe."

There is no way to be sure of Vivian's personal safety at this time, and certainly not all of it can be left to Brenden's discretion.

Brenden saw that she had a good attitude, so he took his phone and clicked on the What's App and dialed a video call, and when the video came through, he said, "Give Vivian the phone."

"Yes, boss."

After one responded, he immediately handed the phone to Vivian while Brenden handed it to Adriana.

Adriana took her phone and watched the video.

The door to the room opened and inside the cramped and messy room, Vivian's feet were chained in shackles and she sat miserably and miserably on the bed.

"Vivian? Vivian, are you okay?"

Adriana was so worried that she looked at her wretched appearance, red-eyed and pained.

This matter clearly has nothing to do with Vivian, he was pulled in hard, involved in the vortex, unable to extricate themselves.

"Ms. Hale? Ms. Hale come and help me, Ms. Hale, I'm so scared here."

As soon as she saw Adriana in the video, Vivian seemed to see her family members, tears came to her eyes and she couldn't stop sobbing and choking.

"Vivian, I will get you out, I will save you. Did they bully you? Beat you up? Did they have food to eat every day?"

"Well, there, they didn't hit me, they just trapped me here."

"Sorry Vivian, I ......"

Adriana was so worried about Vivian's situation that she apologized to her and felt extremely guilty about Vivian.

It was stupid that people disappeared for a day and a night and she only found out the next day.

"Where is all that nonsense."

Brenden snatched up the phone as soon as he could and hung up straight away.

"Adriana, mark my words, do as I say, and I'll make sure VivianRene is okay."

With that sentence, Brenden got up and left without looking back.

Adriana was the only one sitting in the large room, the living room was silent, and it was this silence that made her restless and uneasy.

An inexplicable sense of fear rushed to her heart, and her thoughts were so mixed up that she didn't know what to do.

It wasn't until Jenkins' phone call came again that she thought to deliver the passports.

Take your passport and go straight to the airport.

Inside the airport, Jenkins and Helen had been waiting for a long time.

Adriana was carrying a small trolley case containing Helen's clothes.

"Mommy?"

From a long distance, Helen saw Adriana and ran towards her with her short legs, "Mommy, you're here?"

Adriana leaned over and hugged Helen, watching her smile like a flower, innocent, her heart melted by her smile as bright as the warm sun.

"Good boy."

Holding her tightly, her palms clasped around her head, letting her lean on her shoulders, Adriana closed her eyes and smelled Helen's scent, so familiar that it tugged at her heartstrings.

The familiarity of the scent that could not be familiar made her cling.

Daughter, mommy is sorry for you.

She silently apologized to Helen in her mind.

"Mommy, what's wrong with you?"

Helen seemed to sense that Adriana was unhappy and straightened up to look at her mommy, only to see her eyes red, "Mommy, are you crying."

"What nonsense, mommy has grown up, where is the crying, only children will cry."

Adriana forced a smile and pinched her pink cheeks, "Helen, go to Los Angeles with your uncle, your godmother Anne is waiting for you there."

"Mummy, why do you want me to go back again when I have just returned to China?"
