My Sweet Lawyer Wife

Brenden got up and followed Adriana out.

Seeing the two of him leave, Peter felt his appetite was gone and got up to leave, “You take your time eating, I suddenly remembered there was an urgent document that had not been processed.”

“Peter?”

Theresa shouted, but Peter didn’t turn around.

Angry, she gripped her chopsticks tightly, her face showing anger, “Adriana!”

A woman’s sixth sense intuition is very strong, if Adriana may not have a relationship with Peter, but at this moment, a strong intuition makes it clear to her that Peter’s feelings for Adriana are very unusual.

…

“Mr. Alston, are you free to go now that it’s okay?”

As the two men exited the restaurant, Adriana pulled away from him and said in a deep voice.

“Come on, I’ll take you to meet someone. ”

Brenden pulled Adriana straight downstairs without a word.

“Hey, where are you taking me? I’m not going!”

She was subconsciously very resistant, and wherever she was going, Adriana didn’t want to go with Brenden.

The two are only in a transactional relationship and have not yet reached that level of intimacy.

“Don’t move.”

Brenden instantly collected his expression, his face serious and gloomy.

Brenden was like nothing she had ever seen before and seemed really angry.

“But I’m supposed to be at work in a little over an hour.”

“With me around, what are you afraid of?”

Now that Brenden has said it, what can Adriana say?

Alston Group is all about him and Peter.

Struggling in vain, I could only follow Brenden down to the negative floor and drive out.

The two were silent on the way and arrived at Waverly First People’s Hospital twenty minutes later.

“What did you bring me here for?”

Adriana was not sure, but the words came out of her mouth and she remembered something and asked, “You’re not going to show me your wife, are you?”

Brenden glanced at her with a deep gaze and did not speak, as a tacit acknowledgement.

“Get out of the car.”

Brenden got out, went around to the passenger side, pulled open the door, and ordered.

“No go.”

“What, what have you done to her that you don’t even have the courage to see her?”

“I …”

“Don’t give me that crap!”

Brenden chortled and pulled Adriana’s hand under the car, slamming the door shut with a bang.

Adriana stumbled after him at an unsteady pace, entered the lobby of the inpatient unit, got on the elevator and went straight to Brenden’s wife’s inpatient room.

“What did you bring me here for?” Adriana didn’t understand what he was trying to do.

But Brenden had a sullen face and didn’t answer at all.

It wasn’t until he entered a VIP room that he let go of Adriana’s hand and closed the door.

Inside the warmly decorated hospital room, Brenden’s wife lies in a hospital bed, wearing an oxygen mask, with no life to speak of.

Adriana slowly walked in and carefully observed the woman lying on the bed, only to find that Brenden’s wife has a mediocre posture, although sleeping peacefully, it is not difficult to see that this person’s face is a bit fierce.

“She is my wife, Gisselle.”

Brenden stood at the bedside and took a look at Gisselle, with a cold look in his eyes, without any hint of pity.

And then, turning around and walking to the window, looking out of the window, then said, “Ten years ago, I married her, but for fifteen years, we did not have any sex life between us. Do you believe me when I say this?”

“What? Ten … fifteen years you haven’t had sex?”

The news was so shocking that Adriana couldn’t believe it.

Brenden smiled to himself, “Yes, no one else would believe it. But it’s true that we don’t have any emotions between us, let alone any life as a couple. But we still acted together for ten years. Sometimes, I feel like I could be an actor.”

Adriana listened quietly, without interrupting.

“When she married me, Gisselle had a boyfriend, and even on her wedding night she secretly had a fling with him at my house. She thought that I was drunk, but I wasn’t. That time, I killed the adulterer in a fit of rage, and from then on the two of us were in harmony as husband and wife, but in private we were bitter enemies.

I held in my hand the video of her tangling with the adulterer, who did not dare to divorce. But within the marriage, she betrayed me countless times and leaked various important documents of mine to others. Among them, that includes Peter.”

At this point, Brenden spoke, and suddenly turned toward Adriana.

With a smile on his face, with that smile but no reason to make Adriana tremble with fear.

One step, two steps, one step closer, Adriana couldn’t stop backing up, and finally hit the headboard, unable to retreat.

Eyes baffled, “What do you want?”

Brenden raised his hand, cupped her chin between his fingers, and leaned down, “By the way, do you know why Gisselle wants to marry me?”

Adriana shook her head, saying she knew nothing about it.

“Hahahaha …”

Asked about this, he suddenly threw back his head a wild laugh, “Gisselle is the Atkins family people, when the Atkins family in Waverly has a certain status. And Gisselle to me, I coveted her family’s power, so I agreed to marry. But later learned that Gisselle is willing to marry me because Peter saved her life, in return for saving her life, she gave up her life to marry me, and become Peter’s mole.

Did you know that ten years ago, Peter was only nineteen years old?

He was so calculating back then! Otherwise, how could he be the president of Alston Group now?”

Adriana swallowed, perhaps because of too much fear, only to feel the lip interference, so licked his lips, his voice trembled, “You … you tell me this for what?”

“To do what? To tell you, of course, that Peter and I have a mortal grudge against each other. With him without me, with me without him. Understand?”

He didn’t hide it and told her everything directly.

Adriana was even more confused, “You know that Theresa is my BFF, why did you tell me these things? Aren’t you afraid I’ll tell Peter?”

He rubbed his fingers over her lips, smiling, “As long as you are not afraid of Helen’s death of innocence, let it be. And that brother of yours, and Hayley, who is as stupid as no one else, will be the price for your betrayal of me!”

Suddenly, he let go of Adriana and turned to walk beside the hospital bed.

“Come here.”

Turned back to Adriana and waved.

Adriana shook her head, somewhat resistant.

The next moment, Brenden walked directly to Adriana’s side, pulling her to her side and embracing her into her arms, with her back pressed against Brenden’s arms.

Brenden leaned down close to her ear and whispered to her, “Are you doubting the truth of what I’m saying?”

“No, no.”

Once again, Adriana shook her head like a rattle.

For the first time, I felt that Brenden was a bit scary.

Especially with such a gloomy look like a late night ghost, it gives her the creeps.

“Little Adri, have you ever witnessed the fall of life?”Exclusive © content by N(ô)ve/l/Drama.Org.

“What do you … you mean?”

Adriana had a bad feeling about this.

The next moment, Brenden grabbed her hand, “Here, let you feel the death and sin.”

He held her hand tightly in his palm, leaned down, approached Gisselle’s oxygen mask and tried to pull it off.

“Brenden, what are you doing? You let go of me!”
