My Sweet Lawyer Wife

“It’s hard to say in a nutshell.”

Adriana looked up and said, “It’s been four years. What a pity.”

Although the three hundred million dollars really meant a lot, Adriana didn’t want it. She would rather keep her firm.

But Peter had done too much this time.

Even if the company was restored, it would definitely take a long recovery period to get back to the company’s previous state after two serious cases of mass loss of customers in a short period of time.

“Was it that man in the bar?” Vivian vaguely knew that Adriana had offended someone, but it was settled after she went to the bar. It was probably that man in the bar.

Peter Alston, a man who calls the shots in Waverly.

Knowing that she couldn’t hide it, Adriana nodded helplessly, “Sort of.”

“What’s your plan afterwards?”

“I don’t know. Maybe I will start again.” Adriana didn’t want to give up.

“Really? Vivian was happy so she held Adriana’s hands, “Miss. Hale, can you take me? I like to work with you.”

She had been used to following Adriana for many years.

Adriana was serious, “Are you sure? You might suffer a lot.”

But Vivian did make her moved.

“Of course! I will run a company with you this time. I believe you can make it again since you are capable!”

Vivian definitely believed Adriana, or she wouldn’t had followed her these years.

Hearing Vivian’s words, Adriana was very happy.

She was lucky to have such a partner.

“Okay, I won’t let you down if you truly believe me.”

They drank and talked late that night.

Adriana could only say something to Vivian, because she truly believes Vivian.

After returning home, Adriana washed up briefly and then went to bed.

Early the next morning, she contacted Brenda by phone and scheduled to meet.

She was intended to fight against Peter.

An hour later, when Adriana arrived, Brenda was already waiting for her.

She was wearing a long dress, looking pale and haggard.

“Hello, Miss, are you Brenda?” Adriana walked to her and asked with a smile.

Brenda nodded and looked at her without facial expression, “Are you Miss. Hale?”

“Yes.”Published by Nôv'elD/rama.Org.

Adriana introduced herself briefly, “There was something Wrong with Mr. Hale, and I will handle it from now on. I am his sister so you can talk with me.”

Brenda was a little nervous, “Did he … get revenge from that man?”

Her voice was sweet, but full of timid.

How could Peter hurt her?

“No, he didn’t.”

In order to dispel the fears and concerns in Brenda’s mind about Peter’s powerful background and identity, she decided to hide the situation of Jenkins, “You can tell me about the situation in detail.”

“Okay.”

Brenda pondered for a few seconds and nodded her head in agreement, “I … I met Mr. Alston in a a party. Both of us drank a lot. I sent him to his room after the party, and he… he ravished me. I fell asleep that night, and he was gone when I woke up. I didn’t want to bother him afterwards, but I was pregnant. My families asked me and I told them the truth. My mom went to ask Mr. Alston, but… but…”

Brenda was a little emotional as she was speaking, almost crying, “They drove my mother away. My mother was very angry so she went there again. But she didn’t go back this time. My mother was lost for many days. And when she was found in the suburbs, she had died for two days…”

Brenda burst into tears.

Adriana handed her a few pieces of tissues, “Don’t worry. I will help you. What did the police say?”

“I…”

Brenda stopped crying and shook her head, “I called the police, but there wasn’t enough evidence. They can’t arrest Mr. Alston.”

Then she started to cry again, “Is a rich man that powerful? Can’t we seek justice for ourselves?”

Brenda was in great grief.

“Is your kid…”

Adriana was concerned about that. It could be an evidence.

Brenda shook her head, “My mother’s death was a strike for me and I had a miscarriage. I asked for a lot of lawyers these days, but none of them dare to take this suit hearing that ot was about Alston. I found Mr. Hale by coincidence. However, Alston kept threatening him. I was afraid that he would refuse to take the case.”

“Don’t worry, I will help you.”

Although the case is a bit tricky, Peter was too ruthless.

As a lawyer, she would never take money against her conscience.

She could make it known to the public.

“There isn’t completely without a solution. Take care of yourself recently and someone will interview you days later. We can win if it was known to the public.”
