Wife is a Lawyer novel Chapter 192

After that, they sent Adriana and Helen back and had eight bodyguards guarding the entrance of the apartment to keep Adriana safe.

"From now on, no one is allowed to enter Adriana's house. Except for the people Adri wants to meet."

Peter stood in the doorway and instructed.

"Yes."

"Listen carefully, no one from The Alston family will be let in except me!"

He was afraid that the bodyguards would ignore it and warned again.

After that, it left.

At noon, someone brought in a special lunch, which Peter had ordered to be carefully prepared.

"Wow, Mommy, the food is so scrumptious."

Helen was overjoyed.

"Are you hungry? Good boy, come on, let's eat."

Adriana said hello to Jenkins again and the three sat down to eat together.

After the meal, Adriana played with Helen for a while and then tucked her in for a nap.

Not long after, stepping out, Jenkins stared at her with a serious face, "What the hell is going on?"

He is now curious to know.

Adriana pondered that there were still Peter's people at the door, and fearing that she might hear something from her mouth that she shouldn't hear, she turned on the TV, found a random TV channel, and turned up the sound.

The two sat on the couch, Adriana pursed her lips and sighed, "Brother, ask whatever you want to ask."

"Is Helen really Peter's child?"

"Yes."

"Is it because I caused all this in the first place?"

The question was asked, but without waiting for Adriana to answer, Jenkins said, "I'm sorry, if it wasn't for me, it wouldn't have put you in this situation, I'm the asshole."

Snap--

Snap--

As he spoke, Jenkins raised his hand to his face and slapped it a few times, "It's my waste, it's my uselessness, I'm sorry."

"Brother, what are you doing!"

Adriana took his hand, "It has nothing to do with you, I ...... I had no money in my hand at the time and wanted it. It just so happens that he paid well."

To keep Jenkins from feeling guilty, Adriana had to place the blame on herself.

Jenkins shook his head, "Since childhood, you have been more understanding. I know, although you do not admit it, but still because I waste. adri, is you gave me a life, in the future, whenever you need my help, I will do everything possible. "

He had a complicated look in his eyes.

"Brother, I'm doing very well now. Living all the life I want, even though it's not very rich, it's a lot better than ordinary people. So I still have your mother to thank for that, without her, I wouldn't be who I am today."

Adriana tells it like it is.

Two million in fees, one million to Jenkins, and one million after that for her own start-up capital. Without that million, how could she have become who she is today?

"Adri, you ...... really don't hate me?"

Adriana smiled, "Brother, you are the only family I have in this world besides Helen. How can I hate you?"

No, not at all.

Jenkins, a seven-foot man, heard Adriana's words and instantly got red-eyed, seemingly with more emotion than Adriana.

The two men looked at each other, looked at each other and both laughed.

"This afternoon, Alston GroupPeterMr. Alston held a press conference at the Vienna Hotel, but the Alston Group is relatively confidential, as of now, we do not know exactly what the theme of the meeting is."

Suddenly, a news message was shown on the TV.

Adriana and Jenkins both looked over.

On TV, the large conference hall was filled with reporters. Peter, dressed in a silver-grey suit and looking cool, entered the conference hall led by Hank.

Reporters flocked to the event, but were stopped by security guards.

Stepping into the speaker's platform, Peter did not sit down, said directly: "Today, I invited all the media reporters, is to tell you that I, Peter and Theresa's wedding is cancelled."

"Mr. Alston, did you suddenly call off your engagement because of that woman named Adriana?"

"Was the annulment unilateral and did Miss Lindsay agree to it?"

"May I ask Mr. Alston, after the annulment of your engagement to Miss Lindsay, will you marry Ms. Hale?"

"I heard Ms. Hale already has a child, you can accept a married woman?"

"Is the cancellation of today's engagement the result of your discussion with Miss Lindsay?"

"Aren't Ms. Hale and Brenden together?"

......

Such a powerful news let all the reporters have sat down, immediately stood out a variety of questions.

Inside the living room, Adriana and Jenkins both had their eyes fixed on the TV channel.

Eventually, Adriana closed her eyes, rather desperately.

On TV, Peter faced the reporter's Q&A and said in a flat tone, "To clarify, the reason Ms. Hale is with me, Uncle, is because Uncle and she are friends. And she, in order to reject my pursuit, only to do a play. She, being a simple-minded girl, likes her because of my wishful thinking and has nothing to do with her. So, here, I take a stand, all those who are tit-for-tat with Ms. Hale are my Peter's enemies.

I also hope that the netizens can be merciful, after all, online violence is really cruel, especially for a girl.

As for Theresa, I'm the one who did her wrong, so if anyone has a problem with that, come at me. Don't hurt the innocent."

In Waverly, Peter is known to be a ruthless man who never bends over backwards for anyone or anything.

And now, for the first time in front of the media for Adriana's matter, Peter showed endless tenderness and heartache for Adriana, and even asked the netizens to be merciful when the tone of voice is even a little begging.

This action has surprised all the media reporters.

"Mr. Alston, everyone who knows you knows that you are violent, is this change of style because of Ms. Hale?"

"You're still married to Miss Lindsay, is that cheating on you?"

"I heard that Miss Lindsay and Ms. Hale are best friends, is it true that Ms. Hale is not interested in you?"  "What does Miss Lindsay think about this?"

......

Peter's attitude is calm, today's his nature is surprisingly good, patiently returned: "marriage contract, I am the fault party, will try to make up for Theresa. feelings, sometimes is so delicate, love can not help, but fortunately now found not too late. Besides, the engagement with Theresa is just a business marriage. Now that I am fortunate enough to meet the love of my life, if I were to marry Theresa at this time, I would be doing her a disservice because I cannot give her my complete love alone."

To the media, Peter looked serious and said: "Adriana, here, in front of all the media, I just want to tell you. Since I was a child, all I valued was my family's interests, and I told myself countless times not to have true feelings. However, after you appeared completely disrupted everything, so that I have a new perception of feelings, the rest of my life is long, I only want to spend with you."

Peter described the marriage between him and Theresa as a business alliance, which is a good way to tell everyone that he has no feelings for Theresa.

"So that's how it is, so Mr. Alston is still an infatuated man."

"So why didn't Ms. Hale say yes to your advances?"

"The man and the woman are still a good match."
