My Sweet Lawyer Wife

“Invite me to dinner? What’s so nice, you’re not planning to do anything wrong, right? I see that I am super fond of all those things you just ordered. Do you know me?”

Adriana picked up the kettle and poured water for Raylan as she spoke.

She handed Raylana glass of plain water, but saw Raylan staring at her blankly, Adriana covered her lips and smiled, “Just kidding, don’t take it seriously.”

“Huh.” Raylan breathed a sigh of relief and smiled awkwardly.

Raylan, whose heartstrings were tense, heard Adriana’s words, and a glimmer of hope flared up in his heart.

Thought Adriana had remembered him.

Who knew it was in jest.

But the food he ordered was indeed what Adriana liked to eat.

When the two had a good relationship, it was Adriana who first took him to a big stall, and then fell in love with the barbecue in a flash.

“By the way, do you work nearby too?”

Adriana asked.

“Nope. I …” Raylan avoided Adriana’s gaze and looked down to take a sip from the glass of plain water, “just came over on business.”

“Oh, I said. So where are you from back home?”

“Floedan.”

Floedan is indeed Raylan’s old home.

When I first took Adriana to my grandmother’s quadrangle, it was in the countryside of Floedan.

“How many days are you planning to stay on this trip?”

“I … may have to leave later.”

“You’re going back at this late hour? Why don’t you leave tomorrow.”

Raylan returned a polite smile, “Get used to it. By the way, I haven’t asked what your name is. ”

“Me? My name is Adriana. and you?”

“Raylan.”

“Raylan?” A very nice name.” Adriana propped her elbows on the tabletop, resting her chin and tilting her head at him, “Must be missing your girlfriend in such a hurry to get back so late, huh?”

Girlfriend?

Facing the memory loss of Adriana, this question asked him, in turn, Raylan heart more than a few heartache.

Coincidentally, the boss brought some skewers at this time, “Here, the crispy bones, palm trees, and hesitation are ready to grill. Enjoy your meal.”

“Come on, eat.”

Raylan picked up the skewer, wiped the charcoal black off the head of the iron skewer with a paper towel, and handed it to Adriana, “It’s cleaner to eat this way.”

“Thanks.”

Adriana took a skewer and said thank you.

“What do you … you do for a living?”

The two ate and were silent for a few moments. The atmosphere was slightly awkward, so Raylan changed the subject.

“I work for the Fryer Group, in the secretarial department.”

“Oh, yeah? Pretty good.”

“This barbecue tastes pretty good.” Adriana pointed to the skewers, “First time I’ve eaten here, I didn’t expect it to taste really good.”

First time?

Raylan smiled, “It’s okay.”

Is it really the first time?

I remember the day that Adriana dragged him here to eat kebabs.

That was the first time Adriana came over.

Just did not expect her memory loss, or with his first time to eat kebabs.

Two people ‘strangers’ just chatted for a while in the sky.

Finally Raylan took the time to go to the bathroom to check out, walked up to Adriana and said, “Shallow … Ms. Hale, I’m leaving. Bye.”

He stood in front of Adriana and held out his hand.

Adriana got up, looked at his outstretched hand and shook it, “Nice to meet you, see you next time, it’s on me.”

Next time?

There won’t be a next time.

Raylan pursed his lips as a reply, withdrew his hand, full of reluctance and heartfelt gaze at Adriana, a moment later, softly said: “Let’s go.”NôvelDrama.Org holds © this.

Just two words, but a strong air of sadness flowed.

“Good luck, have a good trip.”

Adriana said.

“Hmm.”

Raylan nodded and turned around, just a few steps away, he stopped, hiding his heart’s unbearable emotions, and turned back, only to find Adriana still looking at him.

That look almost made Raylan think that Adriana had remembered him.

How is it possible?

If he could really remember him, Adri would have said so.

Adri?

Adriana?

Carrying the memories of both, Raylan didn’t even know whether he should call her ‘Adri’ or ‘Adriana’.

“Is there anything else?”

Seeing him turn around, Adriana asked again.

“Go back early, it’s dangerous for girls to be out there alone.”

“Yes, I will.”

Waiting for Adriana’s answer, Raylan walks away.

Adriana stood there, watching as Raylan got into his car, started it up, and left.

It was a long time before she slowly sat down, and the cell phone that had been placed backwards on the table was picked up by her.

Adriana lights up the screen and the What’s App chat interface is displayed on the phone screen.

The interface is exactly the same as the ‘Raylan’ dialog.

Instead, the chat log on the interface is from a year ago.

Raylan.

Adriana, I will protect you no matter what.

If you want, I will always be behind you when you turn around.

I like you, you really don’t want to think about it?

I know Lynn hurt you and I will take care of this.

…

The chat is a transcript of Raylan’s What’s App chat with Adriana during the early stages of his schizophrenia.

Then Siena came along, and under Siena’s treatment, Raylan’s schizophrenia did not worsen, but quickly improved.

Adriana initially took a new phone and did not see these chats.

It wasn’t until I returned to Asnana villa and found the old phone that I loaded the card into the old phone and found a lot of chat logs.

Then just keep using the old phone.

Only changed the phone case, all no one noticed her phone.

The reason Adriana didn’t go straight back from work today was that she saw Raylan sitting in his car the moment she walked out of the company building.

She naturally knew that Raylan had deliberately come to her before deliberately finding a large stall to give Raylan the opportunity to come to her.

But it was this time that Adriana had the illusion of parting with him.

“Boss, a few beers.”

Looking at the remaining dishes on the table, Adriana ordered a few beers and drank them by herself.

Drinking until her head was a little groggy, she called Harlee and asked him to come pick her up.

She had something to ask Harlee.

An hour later, a very drunk Adriana leftwithout waiting for Harlee.

On the road, she stumbled, so wretched, and finally tired of walking, she sat down on a bench at the side of the road, holding her hand on the seat, and threw up on the side of the road.

At this moment, a car appeared in the dark.

Raylan looked at the drunken Adriana, unbuckled his seat belt and prepared to get out of the car to take her back.

But not waiting for his limo door to open, a silver gray car pulled up next to Adriana.

The man in the car stepped out.

The man was none other than Peter, who took three steps forward and picked up Adriana, who was lying on the bench, and turned around and got into the car.

Bang–

The door of the car closed, the car slowly started and went away in the dust.

Raylan sat in the limo and watched the car move further and further away until it disappeared from view.

He took out a cigarette and smoked it silently.

Until the cigarette burned out, he tossed the butt out, “Adriana, let’s say goodbye. I hope that for the rest of your life, you will be happy and prosperous.”
