Wife is a Lawyer -
Chapter 259 You only have two ways to choose
Adriana stood still, carrying her duffel bag, looking up, looking up at Peter, "See? It should be clear to you that we are not right together. the presence of Theresa, the obstruction of The Alston family, the opposition of your mother and your sister, will all be a hindrance between us. As I said, a marriage without a blessing cannot be happy."
Every time The Alston family got in the way, it left a shadow in Adriana's heart.
Even though countless times I told myself that I could try to get together.
But she really tried, tried hard to take the first step, only the results were very unpromising.
"Are you okay? Did you hurt anywhere?"
Peter took her hand with a look of concern.
The big palm just touched Adriana's hand, she retracted and took a step back, distancing herself from him.
"Peter, there's no need to avoid the topic, some things can't be solved without you thinking about them. The matter of the child is a misunderstanding, but it is not a shackle between us." Once again, she asserts her position.
Peter's face was chilly, and his thick eyebrows, which were dyed like ink, wrinkled, "What, want to take Helen away and get out of my sight once again?"
"I gave birth to the child, why not?" She didn't give an inch.
"Is that so?"
The man's face was gloomy, "You seem to forget that at first it was just a deal between you and me. I gave you money, the child is my Peter, even though you raised her to adulthood, you can not ignore the contents of the contract. I can pay you, but the child cannot be taken away."
It was Peter's decision.
After saying that, he added, "You only have two choices to make. One, leave on your own, or two, stay and be the mother of two children, my Peter's wife."
The hegemonic dictatorship is not negotiable in any way.
That word by word, it was like a sharp dagger, stabbed deep in Adriana's heart, painful to the core, almost can feel the taste of dripping blood.
But she has tasted countless pain over the years, even if how hard it is in the heart, but also can not look happy.
A formulaic smile spreads across his cheeks, making it impossible to tell what he is thinking.
But through the pair of clear and thinly misted eyes, but can feel the taste of her suppressed pain.
"Are you done? When I'm done, I'll go to work."
Adriana walked to the curb, reached out to stop a cab, got in, and left straight away.
In the rearview mirror, the figure of Peter on the roadside turned out to be further and further away until it disappeared in front of Adriana.
She squarely withdrew her gaze and stared ahead, letting her tears well up in her eyes and not daring to let them drip out of them.
Tears, is the most worthless thing, even crying into tears can not solve any problems.
When she arrived at the office, the morning meeting was a routine one, with Vivian talking about the morning meeting and her sitting on the sidelines listening quietly. When she returned to her office after the meeting, Flora brought her a cup of tea and placed it in front of her, "Ms. Hale, have some water."
Adriana's face is cold, as if plated with a layer of frost.
"You came to the company because Peter told you to come over. Now, you're given a choice, either leave the company now or go help Vivian or Jenkins, one of two." She doesn't hate Flora, but...... every time she sees her, she can think of Peter planting Flora on her side.
This is called trust?
It's simply not worth a dime.
"What? Aigoo, Adriana, what's wrong with you?" Flora dressed in a professional outfit, long hair tied a ponytail, put on a light makeup, although said a shopping mall elite model, but as soon as she opened her mouth to speak there is a natural milk voice, kawaii, very whiny kind.
I know that the hotel was my fault, but can you give me a chance? Adriana, if you kick me out now, Peter will definitely not let my brother go, and then my brother will definitely abuse me. If you send me to work in Africa for a few years, I will come back black as coal, and by then you may not even recognize me even if I stand in front of you."
Adriana was unmoved and continued to look down at the paper.
Flora persistently begged, "Adriana, don't be so indifferent. If you send me back now, how can I break off my engagement with Alvin? All my hopes are on Peter's body, but if you drive me back, Peter will definitely not speak in front of my parents, and then there is really no way to break the engagement."
She wanted to cry and felt that she was the most humble and pathetic one.
"And I'm not saying you have to leave. But, you could go work with Vivian or Jenkins, couldn't you?"
Adriana finally couldn't stand Flora's pestering, like an abrasive goblin, bitterly pestering, making her feel a little suffocated even to breathe.
"It has to be like this?"
"You still have the option of packing up and leaving now." She grimaced, not giving a single good look.
"You......"
Flora skimmed her lips, "Adriana, you are really too cold in nature."
She stood up, and its frustration.
I'd rather go with Jenkins, Vivian is the same as you, the queen of the high and mighty, for God's sake, it's worse than death to think of working with her. It's better to follow Jenkins, the man is not so bullying girls, especially a cute little girl like me."
She held her face narcissistically, with a look of innocence that left Adriana speechless in a hundred ways.
The heart also has a little bit of envy, when, she can live with Flora this kind of relaxed, unrestrained, how good it should be.
"Go ahead."
"Okay."
Flora sighed, "I'll report to Jenkins, but don't reveal my situation to Peter, or I'll lose my happiness for the rest of my life. adriana, you can't be so cruel as to want to see me tangled up with Alvin, can you? He doesn't like me. And besides, I'm such a pretty, pretty, pretty girl, I'm not worried about replaceing a boyfriend, right? Why hang yourself from a tree? I ......"
Before she could say a whole lot of words, Adriana jerked her eyes up, "Finished? When you're done, go to work."
Previously not much contact with Flora, only know that she is lively nature, but really did not replace her is so ...... rambling, nagging unlike words.
It is simply...... chatterbox!
"Okay, I'm off to work. Remember my words oh, make sure not to reveal my situation to Peter. I will also reply to Peter in time on my side, but you have to trust my professionalism, I won't expose you, we will just live in peace, I think that's the best, don't you think so, Adriana?"
Adriana: "
"
Faced with such a nagging Flora, she just reached out and pointed to the office door, "Take care, no see you off, and remember to close the door."
