Wife is a Lawyer novel Chapter 193

The journalists, who were suddenly enlightened, were impressed by Peter's deep emotions.

"Adri did not say yes to my advances only because of the business alliance between Theresa and I. And she and Theresa are BFFs, so maybe such love is not acceptable to her. But, I won't give up."

When he finished, the reporters were still asking questions, but Peter raised his hand, "This concludes today's press conference, thank you all."

Having said all he wanted to say, Peter turned to leave.

In this regard, it is also considered to give Adriana an explanation, plugging the yo-yo and minimizing the damage to her.

Meanwhile, the apartment.

Bang Bang Bang -

There was a hard knock on the living room door and Theresa's voice came from the door.

Adriana rubbed her brow with a double headache, not knowing how to react.

"Do you want ...... you to go into your room and take shelter?" Jenkins asked.

"No, what's coming will come sooner or later."

Adriana got up, walked to the living room door and pulled it open.

However, the door had just opened when a hot mouth landed on her cheek.

With a strong jerk from Theresa, Adriana's head hit the corner of the door and was instantly bruised.

"Adriana, you are shameless, didn't you say you would stay away from Peter? Is that what you promised me?"

Theresa, shaped like a shrew, jumped in anger, pointed at her face and cursed.

Adriana did not say a word, just raised a hand to rub the bumped dizzy head, dizzy and uncomfortable.

"Thanks to me treating you like a good sister, this is how you treat me?"

She was in tears, "You should know that I really love Peter, but what about you, I asked you to come back for our wedding and you broke us up in life."

"Are you done?"

Adriana looked slightly cold, "If you have time to talk nonsense with me, why don't you go and fawn over your Peter, maybe there is still some room for redemption. You can't even watch your own fiancé, what qualifications do you have to accuse me here?"

With a bang, the door was closed.

Leaning against the door panel, Adriana closed her eyes in a frenzy of exhaustion.

From the time she returned to China until now, she is clearly the most innocent one, constantly receiving harm, how come no one feels for her?

And that bastard Peter was so shameless to say that in front of the media.

Theresa was kicked out and took a taxi back to Peter's house, only to find her things already packed up by the maid.

"Miss Lindsay, this is your luggage, the young master asked us to send it back to you."

The maid saw Theresa and whispered.

"Where's Peter?"

Theresa looked at the boxes of luggage, leaving only sarcasm and ridicule in her eyes.

"I don't know."

The maid shook her head, saying she knew nothing.

Unbeknownst to her, Peter appeared outside Adriana's living room door at that moment, holding a bouquet of flowers and looking at Adriana.

"I have made my love for you public to the world and have officially begun to pursue you."

He handed Adriana the flowers in his arms, "I know it may seem tacky to send flowers, but my feelings for you are sincere."

Yes very sincere and serious.

Adriana looked pale, glanced at the flowers and pulled her lips, "You ......!"

The words came to her lips, but she swallowed them back.

"Helen misses Luis, can we have both kids play together?" She asked.

"Sure."

Peter nodded readily, "You should come along, Luis misses you."

Adriana hesitated for a moment, "Okay."

After that, Peter came into the living room, Jenkins sat for a while knowing that he was not interested and could feel Peter's love for Adriana.

Naturally there is nothing to be uneasy about.

Then he got up and left.

The two sat in the living room, quietly waiting for Helen to wake up from her nap.

"What happened to your face?"

He raised his hand to brush the hair away from her cheek, only to find another swollen lump on her forehead, "Who did that?"

"It has nothing to do with you."

Adriana waved her hand, not wanting to explain.

Cold attitude, deep resentment.

"Is it Theresa?"

Peter really can't think of anyone else but Theresa.

With so many bodyguards standing at the door, if it was Brenden who showed up, they would have blocked and informed.

Adriana brushed his hand away and said with some annoyance, "I said, it's okay. It's not that pretentious."

"You wait for me a moment."

Peter got up, pulled the door open and walked out the door.

Adriana was a little confused and sat in the living room unsure.

Not long after, the door opened and the man returned, with an extra medicine box in his hand.

Placed the medicine box on the table, opened it, took a bottle of medicine and wiped the red marks on her cheeks and the swollen patch on her forehead.

Then asked, "Is there any ice in the fridge?"

He spoke softly, wiping her cheeks with a delicate blowing, as if afraid of hurting her.

"Hmm."

She responded.

Peter got up, took a towel wrapped in ice and came over and put it on her face, moving with extreme care.

"I'll do it myself."

Perhaps Adriana was uncomfortable with the excessive closeness of the two, so she took the wrapped ice from Peter's hand and put it on her cheek herself.

I thought, just rubbed the medicine, and now the ice, is not equal to the tossing?

"Adri?"

He sat beside Adriana, his gaze burning into her.

"Hmm?"

"I know that I've caused you a lot of trouble, give me some time and I can fix it all. Now that the gossip out there has died down, can you give me a chance?"

He's making a confession.

Sitting so close together and feeling his breath, Adriana couldn't stop her heart from racing and feeling nervous.

But on the surface, it was an indifferent gesture, "Mr. Alston, I think, I have made it very clear that it is unlikely between us."

"What about Luis, the missing fatherly love of Helen who enjoys the pampering of a mother by your side? And Luis, although he has me as a father, does not have the pampering you have as a mother. He ......"

"Daddy? So you're Helen's daddy?"

Before Peter could finish his words, Helen came out of the bedroom, with a pair of nice big eyes glowing, and pounced towards Peter with her short legs, "You're Luis' daddy, no wonder Helen feels so close to you every time she sees you."

"Helen?"

Adriana never expected Helen to hear their conversation, and now when she saw her jump into Peter's arms, she felt her heartstrings tighten, fearing that she would follow Peter and never return.

"Mommy, so she is Helen's daddy, Helen knew it, daddy must be the most handsome and handsome man in the world oh."

Helen was beaming, wrapping her arms around Peter's neck, overjoyed.

Faced with Helen's initiative to approach, Peter's heart warmed up, and his depressed mood improved a little.

Held her sitting on his lap, a face flooded with fatherly love, "Good boy, it's daddy's bad, let you drift outside with your mother for many years. In the future, would you like to live with daddy?"

The original wanted to tell the child, and now since the child already knows, he simply will not hide it anymore.
