Wife is a Lawyer
Chapter 227 - Delusions of Grandeur

The words are full of disdain and contempt.

Theresa was instantly upset, "What, you're not happy to see that I've got The Alston family's ancestral jade bracelet?"

She raised her eyebrows and shrugged her shoulders as if she was a villain, "I can't help it, who made Mrs. Alston dislike you? Even though I may not be The Alston family's daughter-in-law in the future, I still have a place in her heart."

"Is that so? Then congratulations, as you wish."

Adriana's attitude was light, as if she didn't care at all about what Theresa had said, didn't care at all.

She showed off her jade bracelet and was so belittled by her, not to mention how angry Theresa was in her heart.

Raising her eyes, she looked around and upstairs to make sure Peter was in the study before she lowered her voice and said, "I'm telling you, you and Peter don't fit at all, and if it weren't for Luis and Helen, do you think Peter would really let you come back? Dream on!"

"That's a shame, because it just so happens that I'm having a baby."

Adriana slowly put down the cup in her hand, elegant demeanor, no anger, the look of calm and relaxed not to mention how angry.

"Theresa, I have a word of warning for you. Whatever you want to do, I'll be there, but don't touch my bottom line. luis and helen are my lifeblood, if you dare to touch them, don't blame me for being rude to you."

In the past, because they were girlfriends and friends, they tolerated each other in every way.

The mistake she made back then left Theresa without a uterus and unable to have children, so her heart has always been very guilty, but who knew that Theresa had gone even further and was really over the top.

It is intolerable.

"Heh, I can't understand what you mean."

Theresa was a little weak and turned her face away from Adriana's direct gaze, muttering in her heart, "Could it be that the group of losers did something that Adriana found out about?

Otherwise, why would she say that?

"Whether you understand or not, that's up to you. But Theresa, in the future I want us to each be well, and that's the best."

She said.

Just a kind reminder.

"What's wrong, Adriana, it's not just that Peter likes you and made the whole city know in order to replace you, and now the whole world knows that Peter likes you, and he and I are just a family marriage, so you are great? You think you are the final winner, right? Don't get too cocky in front of me, at least you haven't got Mrs. Alston to accept you yet. And really don't take out the posture of being the head of the family to talk about things in front of me, it's disgusting."

She looked disgusted and gave Adriana a contemptuous white look, hating her arrogant nature very much.

Unbeknownst to her, Adriana is not at all arrogant and domineering, but only warning Theresa.

After all, what happened yesterday left a serious psychological shadow on her, and Adriana was really a bit scared. "My word, point blank."

After saying that, she got up and walked towards the outside.

Now that I have promised Peter, I have to do my best to make a good relationship with Mrs. Alston.

Mother-in-law and daughter-in-law relationship?

Adriana thought about these four words and couldn't help but blush with red cheeks, really crazy? Isn't this still not married?

Do you really think of yourself as a member of The Alston family?

It's really going crazy.

"Stand still!"

Behind her, Theresa's voice suddenly rang out.

The man got up, took three steps forward and blocked Adriana's face, "Adriana, what do you mean? You want to leave after losing your face? I just want to ask you, didn't you say you didn't want to and wouldn't be with Peter at first? But now you are so close to him? Do you have no shame, no credit at all?"

Every time she thinks about it, Theresa has a sense of being tricked and teased by Adriana.

Adriana frowned, her good-looking eyebrows twisted into a twist, and sighed, "Theresa, I did, otherwise, I wouldn't have left. But unfortunately, some people's good deeds just made me whole. When Helen and I had a close call last night, Peter appeared out of nowhere, and at that moment, I decided to stay with him. Because that man was the only one in my desperation who went out of his way to save me. So, thank you, for making it happen. Speaking of which, I forgot to say thank you."

She snorted a laugh and nailed it.

Bypassed Theresa and walked out into the hall.

Theresa stood still, her mind reverberating with what Adriana had said, her fists clenched in anger and rage.

Damn it, how did this happen?

What a bunch of useless losers!

She never expected that she had invariably brought them together?

God knows how angry Theresa is at this moment.

At this moment, Peter stood in the doorway of the study on the second floor, looked down the hall at Theresa who was all angry, and called out, "Theresa, come up here for a minute."

The man suddenly called out to her, causing all the anger in Theresa's heart to dissipate instantly.

Cheeks overflowing with smiles, not to mention how happy the heart is, "Yes, Peter, I'll be right over."

A 'Peter' shout is extremely natural.

Theresa went upstairs with excitement, and all the way there, she wondered what Peter could be calling her for at this time.

Could it be that he heard what she said just now and was grateful to her?

Jogging upstairs and reaching the door of the study, she stopped, her hands clasped together in restraint, squirming for half a day before raising her hand and knocking on the door, "Peter?"

"Come in."

The man said in an indifferent tone.

Theresa immediately pushed the door open and stepped inside, closing it behind her with her hand.

Smiling like a flower walked to Peter's front, hands behind his back, like a blushing little girl, with a lovely appearance.

But fell in Peter's eyes, the indifferent eyes sank a few points, the eyebrows a few imperceptible frown.

"Peter, what did you call me for?" She asked.

Peter closed the papers on the table and leaned lazily against the executive chair, his arms around his chest, and raised his eyes to look at her, "What do you think about me being with Adri?"

"Hmm?"

The sudden question caught her off guard.

But I can't help but feel happy, secretly thinking, could it be that Peter wants to get back together with her?

Can't get in on the commotion?

She lowered her head and looked at the floor, her small face collected a smile and skimmed her lips, "Alas, Peter, you know my feelings for you. For so many years, I really like you so much, dreaming of being with you every moment, I love you. But...... I didn't expect you to fall in love with Adri so quickly. at first, I really couldn't accept it, but now, looking at you so well, so happy, I sincerely wish you. But, if one day, you change your mind, I will also be waiting for you in the same place.

Really, I don't give up easily when I love someone, yet I don't use all the tricks either. After all, Adri is also my bestie, fulfilling you is also considered to fulfill the bestie love between us." She said it with a straight face.
