Wife is a Lawyer novel Chapter 200

She was furious and pushed Mrs. Alston, shouting aggressively, "Mom, look, my brother is actually sending me to Africa for that woman, so why don't you take care of it?"

Mrs. Alston let out a sigh, "Peter, Sloane is right. She's a girl, she'll find a good family to marry, she doesn't need to be a big shot."

"Really, then you think, her fiery nature, which man will marry her? Rich, where can not find a gentle and virtuous? If you don't have money, what can she look for? You are coddling her, trying to ruin her future."

Peter analyzes them one by one.

Mrs. Alston listened for a moment, then nodded fervently, "Sloane, your brother has a point. "

"Mom, you're a wallflower who falls on both sides."

Sloane stomped his feet in anger, "Since you were a child, you have been patriarchal and loved my brother, and you still listen to him for everything now, so what am I?"

Faced with this situation, Adriana can only quietly accompany Luis and Helen to eat together, without speaking or taking a stand.

After all, it all started because of her.

The heart is still full of guilt and self-recrimination, only she is also helpless.

"Sloane, mom thinks your brother has a point, you ......"

"Hmph, eat it yourselves, I'm not eating it."

After saying that, Sloane moved out of his chair, gave Adriana a vicious glare, and went upstairs in a huff.

Theresa pursed her lips, "Auntie, don't be angry, I'll go up and see Sloane and bring her some food. She hasn't eaten much."

Mrs. Alston shook her head and sighed, "Alas, Sloane's temperament needs to be managed, Theresa, thank you for your hard work, you are such a kind child. "

"Auntie, what are you talking about? Sloane and I are good friends too, and I've always treated her like my sister. Then you guys eat, I'll go up first."

Joe up went to the kitchen, took the tray and picked up a few of Sloane's favorite dishes and brought them up.

A lunch was the first time a few people had eaten together and it just didn't go well.

After waiting for the two children to eat, Adriana took them aside to the playhouse to play.

Try to avoid being alone with people from The Alston family.

After everyone dispersed, Mrs. Alston put down her chopsticks, looked at Peter, and asked, "Are you really going to marry this woman?"

Peter held a glass of red wine in his hand, shook the liquid, raised the glass and took a light sip, "Is there a problem."

Already very obvious attitude, simply do not need to ask more.

"Peter, all along, you have been a very obedient child, and mom thought you were glorious. But, this time, you must listen to me."

"Since I was a child, you have interfered in everything. Preferring this matter, I can't listen to you."

He has his own choice and does not need to listen to anyone.

"You're fooling around!"

Seeing his firm attitude, Mrs. Alston was a bit angry and slapped the table, "This woman and your Uncle are not clear, and a while ago I heard from the clan that she and your Uncle were almost engaged. Now you are involved with you, you let us The Alston family's face where to put? Maybe you will lose your current position."

A look of hatred.

"I don't care what others think, I just believe in myself."

Peter's attitude is indifferent, quietly sipping wine, a calm and relaxed posture, Mrs. Alston almost did not breathe up.

"You ...... you ......! If Old Mr. Alston doesn't approve of you being with her, you're asking to be killed. Do you know that?"

Although Old Mr. Alston is now resting at home, he still holds the power, and if Peter rebels, the consequences are unthinkable.

"Aren't you just trying to tell me that it would jeopardize the current position?" He raised his eyes, his gaze faint.

"Good for you to know."

"At first, my father married you, also suffered from the clan's opposition, but did not still get married?"

"You ...... that, that's a matter between your father and me. Besides, your father didn't still lose the reins of the family."

Mrs. Alston feels a little guilty when she talks about the past.

"But at least he didn't regret it."

"Peter, you ......"

"All right, I don't need you to worry about my own affairs."

Peter didn't want to continue arguing with Mrs. Alston on this topic, it was pointless.

Got up and walked straight out.

Mrs. Alston was the only one left in the large dining room, sighing in despair.

"Daddy?"

"You're here?"

The playhouse is a room that Peter had vacated last night and deliberately cleaned up for the two children to play together.

He had just walked in when the two children pounced on him, overjoyed.

"Good boy, you guys play, your mommy and I will stay aside with you."

Peter touched the cheeks of the two children and smiled with a doting smile.

The two children nodded obediently and ran off to play.

Peter walked to the side and sat beside Adriana, seeing her face gloomy, the sadness between her eyebrows brushed away, some heartache.

"I'm sorry that I didn't handle it well and made you follow the commission."

He was talking about the relationship between Mrs. Alston, Sloane and Adriana.

Adriana shook her head, "I wasn't supposed to be here, it was a forced integration, and it was to be expected."

"What nonsense."

Peter smoothly wrapped his arms around her waist, "Give me some time, I'll take care of it."

He is familiar with Adriana's past experiences and knows what she has lost and what she cares about.

So, instead of taking Adriana to live somewhere else for a moment of peace and quiet, we should now try to find ways for the family to slowly try to accept Adriana.

In this way, when she gets married in the future, she can truly enjoy the warmth of home.

He always remembered what Adriana had said, 'An unblessed marriage is an unhappy one', and despite Peter's disagreement with this statement, he wanted her to fit in and become a family.

"Hmm."

Adriana did not resist his approach, forcing her mind to push him away and feigning closeness with him.

Everything, just to get what you want to get as soon as possible.

After this, she can take Helen far away and also get Vivian out of trouble as soon as possible.

Just Luis ......

She stared burningly at Luis, looking at the child's knitted brows and sunny appearance, her heart flooded with the slightest pain.

After the two children played for a while, Adriana took them back to their room, read them a story and put them to bed for a nap.

Until the kids are in bed.

Adriana had nothing to do, found no Peter in the bedroom, so until he was in the study, simply poured a cup of coffee and followed into the study.

"Why didn't you take a break at noon?"

Adriana walked in with a cup of coffee, concerned.

"There are still some things left to deal with in my hand. What about you, why aren't you resting?"

Took the coffee from her hand, took a light sip and put the cup down. Obediently pulled Adriana into his arms and made her sit on his lap.

"Peter, don't ...... don't do this ......"
