Wife is a Lawyer novel Chapter 201

His sudden intimate gesture overwhelmed Adriana, who reflexively bounced up and took a few steps backward.

"What's wrong?" Peter frowned.

"Sorry, I ...... probably wasn't ready for it."

In fact, is simply not any mental preparation, and there is no way to accept his intimate actions like that.

Peter stood up, walked over to her and took her hand, "I'm sorry, I didn't think about your feelings."

Adriana hangs her head and shakes her head in silence.

He lifted his arms and hugged her gently, "I know it's hard for you, and I know you're trying to adjust. Whether you're doing it for the baby or something else, as long as you're by my side, it's the best."

Whether it's for the kids or otherwise?

Adriana's jaw dropped, couldn't ...... he know everything?

"You get busy, I'm going to take a break."

Adriana left the study in a hurry, unable to accept being with both Peter, or not being able to adapt in a short time.

The moment she closed the door, she glanced at Peter sitting in the executive chair through that one gap, and frowned with a deep frown.

What would it take for her, exactly, to get her hands on that?

When she returned to the bedroom, she took advantage of Peter's absence to shine a light on the cabinets in the room, and rummaged around without finding it.

Knock-knock-

Suddenly, there was a knock on the door from outside, which scared Adriana's face and immediately closed the locker, "Who?"

This is Peter's room. If Peter comes in, he must not knock on the door.

Therefore, it should be someone else.

She went to the door and pulled it open, only to see that the person standing in the doorway was actually Theresa.

"What are you ...... doing here?"

She asked.

Theresa glanced at Adriana as she walked around her and walked straight away from the bedroom.

"Tsk, tsk, tsk ...... managed to get to the top so quickly and live with Peter?" She was shady and spoke very badly, "And you said you wouldn't stay with Peter. adriana, you are so hypocritical."

She glanced around the bedroom and sighed, "Even I haven't shared a room with Peter for as long as I've lived in Orchard House, and you've gotten there first. "

Theresa finally walked over to the bed and sat down in a leisurely manner, her arms around her chest in an arrogant posture.

This Theresa makes Adriana feel strange.

"What are you trying to say?" Adriana asked.

"What am I trying to say that you wouldn't know? What are you pretending to be innocent in front of me?" Theresa got up, walked to her, and said, "Peter had a temporary matter at the company, and has gone to the office. Now, no one at Orchard House can protect you."

"So, you might as well say what you have to say."

Adriana did not care to listen to Theresa's nonsense, all she could think about was the task Brenden had ordered.

Trying to find something in the study while Peter is not at home.

"Okay, then I'll get right to the point."

Theresa stood in front of her, her eyes narrowed slightly, "Adriana, I told you, I love Peter and I must be with him. And you, there is no way you can be an obstacle between us. If it is, then ...... don't blame me for being ruthless. This, is my last advice to you as a best friend."

That's all I have to say, it's a complete break with Adriana.

Adriana was not surprised and snorted, "I didn't find you so hostile before. For Peter, you want to kill me? Do you want to get rid of Luis and Helen as well?"

Although this thought in her mind, but when these words came out from Theresa's mouth, she still couldn't stop the shock.

Is it really worth turning yourself into an executioner for love?

"You shut up!"

She got angry and roared, "If it wasn't for you, I would have been on very good terms with Luis by now, seeing as Luis has slowly accepted me. But at this time, you just appeared, why?"

She is furious and feels that Adriana is the bane of her existence and has ruined everything for her.

Adriana is tired of explaining, not to mention not knowing how to solve the situation in front of her, there is no way to speak.

We can't tell Theresa the truth about our true purpose, can we?

If that's the case, she's going to expose herself in front of Peter, and it's going to be more than worth it.

"Can I say it was just an accident? I didn't know Luis would be my child either. This matter, I ask myself that I have not wronged you. theresa, now you are also living in the manor, so let's play fair, as long as you can make Peter like you, I will definitely give in."

Adriana is stalling for time.

Want to give peace with Theresa in the meantime, then after getting the confidential documents she wants, rescue Vivian and take them away from Waverly together and never, ever come back.

"Do you think I'll ever trust you again?"

Theresa got emotional, "You know that Peter likes you, what do you mean by that? A handout, or pity?"

"So what do you want me to do?"

"To get you out of the estate now, out of Waverly, and never to return!" She yelled hysterically, "This family doesn't fit in with you, Mrs. Alston doesn't like you, Sloane doesn't like you, and no one welcomes you except Luis and Peter!"

Adriana's eyes burned as she stared at her in front of her, her eyebrows knitted slightly, shaking her head with a sigh, "Theresa, look what you've become now? For Peter, was it worth it?"

Really love him is not the fault, the fault in you know that he does not love you, you are still obsessed.

"Of course it's worth it. How do you know if it's worth it when you haven't really loved?" Theresa all kinds of envy and jealousy, want can not get, Adriana does not want, Peter prefer to stick to the front.

How can she not be jealous?

"Okay, we won't argue. There's no point."

Adriana pulled open the door and walked out, going to the two children's rooms.

Theresa huffed and puffed, and when she heard the voices go away, Adriana got up and walked out of the room, and seeing that the hall was deserted, she went to the study and closed the door.

There are several cabinets in front of the desk in the study, as well as encrypted safes.

Adriana touched it, but found that she could not open the cabinet at all, let alone the safe.

There is a password!

"What's the password?"

She thought carefully and entered the date of Peter's birthday, which showed incorrectly, and suddenly, she thought of Luis' birthday.

So I entered the password and the result ...... is still incorrect.

"What the hell is it?"

She was quite chagrined and got up with a huff, rummaging through several cabinets that could be opened, but found nothing.

Therefore, important information must be in the safe as well as locked cabinets.

"The key Peter must not carry with him, so ...... it is highly likely that the key to the cabinet is also in the combination box yet."

She murmured, her mind guilty of worrying.

Can't get the password, you can't get anything, isn't it ...... a waste of effort?

Finally, her eyes fell in front of the computer, "Will ......"

Computer with important information saved inside?

With that thought, she pulled open the executive chair, sat on it, and turned on the computer.

Half time, the computer screen shows ...... [Please enter the password]
