Wife is a Lawyer
Chapter 42 Advance on purpose

"The last person who dared to be so arrogant to our boss had been thrown into the sea." Hank stood in front of Thelma and reminded her kindly.

"You...you can do whatever you want just because you have money?"

Thelma was so frightened that she trembled and took Adriana's hand, "Adriana, we are living under the rule of law. He is threatening me. You cannot let him go easily."

Seeing that Thelma was suddenly changing, Adriana snorted.

Then she said, "I'm sorry. I'm just a bitch. Your social state is much higher than me. I cannot help you."

Adriana glanced at Peter, thinking that he was helping her.

But that was definitely not true.

Then the two guards took Thelma out and closed the door.

There was an atmosphere of awkward among the three of them.

"I have investigated who hurt you, Mr. Hale. And here is the result. You can read it at first." said Peter, "As for the lawsuit you were handling with, you'd better not interfere. I believe that you are a wise man." He was saying to Jenkins, but he was looking at Adriana.

"Impossible! I will handle it. I have never been afraid of anyone since I started my career. I'll see you in court." Adriana took the file bag up and gave it to Peter, "My brother's injury has nothing to do with you, and I will investigate it myself. I don't need this."

He gave it to Jenkins on purpose. Maybe he wanted to threaten Jenkins.

Even if he didn't, he was so capable that a falsified statement would be easy for him.

Peter looked at her and smiled, "What? You really like me so much."

Seeing Adriana like that, Peter was interested. He really wanted to conquer her.

"I don't want you to do whatever you want just because you are rich." said Adriana in a cold tone.

Then she neglected him and said, "Take care of yourself, Jenkins. I..." She pursed her lips and said, "I won't come these days."

"Adriana, I apologize for my mother's behavior. We are different. I don't want you to be estranged from me because of her."

He had always been very fond of her. Besides, she had really sacrificed a lot for curing him. Therefore, he thought he owed her a lot.

"I won't." Adriana frowned, "See you."

Peter looked at them and didn't say a word.

After leaving the hospital, Adriana breathed a long sigh of relief and stood by the roadside to wait for the bus.

She felt terrible because of Thelma's presence.

But the bus didn't come for a long time.

Then a luxury car stopped in front of her. It was Peter.

"Get on." He said.

Adriana subconsciously looked at the surroundings. Seeing that there was no one beside her, she was sure he was talking to her.

"No, thanks." said Adriana.

"What, are you afraid at me?" Peter said with a wicked and charming smile, full of playfulness.

Unwilling to look at him, Adriana looked afar, "No, it's because you are disgusting."

"Aren't you dying to know how your brother got hurt? Aren't you dying to know about the girl who was forced to miscarry while pregnant? Get in." Peter was not that patient. Hearing his words, she was confused, so she got into the car.

Peter looked at Adriana, "Why are you being so occupied with a case that has nothing to do with you? Are you doing it on purpose?"

"I'm just pursuing justice." Adriana looked outside and said coldly.

"Justice?"

Peter folded his legs and crossed his fingers, snorting, "Are you stupid or naive? There is no justice in the world. You are just a lawyer, not the embodiment of justice. The lawsuit of Brenda is not that easy as you think. You'd better be wise."

The Brenda was the litigant of the suit.

"You don't want me to handle it, aren't you? You ravished Brenda and she was pregnant. And you even killed her mother. You are really a horrible man, Peter."

Remembering what Theresa said today, she was thrilled.

Theresa was a naive women. However, Peter had a bad influence on her.

"I ravished you yesterday, why didn't you prosecute me? You betrayed your best friend and you are pretending to be innocent in front of her. We are the same, Adriana." The car suddenly stopped, and Adriana accidentally fell into Peter's arms.

In her panic, her hand subconsciously sought a grip and grabbed the collar of his suit. They were so close.

Hank saw the scene and was nervous, "Sorry, boss. Someone was running a red light ahead."

He found a excuse at random to make a perfunctory.

Actually, he was greatly confused. Boss, when did you sleep with the best friend of your fiancee? How dare you?

"Wow, you can't bear it anymore?" Peter smelt the scent of her body, which was familiar and great. For a moment, he really wanted to kiss her and do something with her.
