Wife is a Lawyer

Chapter 176 Peter's late-night visit

Adriana put down the paper in her hand, got up and walked to the hall door and opened it.

Surprised to find that the person standing at the door is Peter?

"What brings you here?"

Hasn't she moved from next door to here, how can Peter still find her?

I think Hayley told him.

"Auntie, hehehe, Luis missed you and sister Helen so much that he came over to play with you oh."

Luis grinned, let go of Peter's hand and flung himself directly in front of her, hugging her thighs and

spooning.

"Luis wants to play with Helen and is crying to come over."

Peter said with an expressionless face.

"Really, Luis?"

She kept a certain distance from Peter, but she liked Luis from the bottom of her heart and was happy

to see him come over.

"Well, of course it's true, Luis misses you."

"That ......"

Adriana took Luis' hand and raised her eyes, glancing meaningfully at Peter, "If it's just Luis who wants

to come over and play, then you can leave him here, and I'll call you if he's done and you can come

back to pick him up."

The implication was that there was no intention of letting Peter into the house.

How could Peter, as smart as he was, not understand her words?

Immediately nodded, "It's okay, I'll just wait outside."

Mind you, she wouldn't let him actually be at the door, would she?

Adriana nodded without thinking, "Okay, then I'll work hard for Mr. Alston."

She pulled Luis into the house and closed the door directly.

The moment the door closed, her hand tightly gripped the door handle, and a sourness rushed to her

heart.

"Auntie, why don't you let Daddy in?"

Luis beamed, some heartache for his own daddy.

"Your daddy is busy with business and has to go to the office later. Be good, you play with Helen."

"Okay."

Luis nodded and took a reluctant glance at the living room door with mixed feelings.

"Hey, little brother, what brings you here?"

Helen sat on the couch, her eyes slightly cold as she glanced at Luis, somewhat surprised.

"Sister Helen, I've come to play with you."

Luis was particularly fond of her and trotted towards her, leaving Peter standing at the door behind for a Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.

moment.

"Call sister!"

Helen commanded.

"No way, you're the sister."

"Okay, okay, you two don't argue, let's play together."

Adriana had no choice, the two children looked exactly alike, but she really didn't know what month or

day Luis was born, and she couldn't be bothered to ask.

So even she doesn't know which of the two children is older.

Returning to the table, with the information in hand, he continued to look through it.

But for some reason, this time no matter how attentive she was, she couldn't look into the case.

The eyes flicked towards the direction of the door from time to time, and in his mind he seemed to be

able to imagine Peter's gloomy face like ink.

She didn't know if she was doing the right thing, but really didn't want to create too many opportunities

for Peter.

Jingle Bell-

While Adriana was deep in thought, she suddenly received a call from Vivian.

"Vivian?"

"Ms. Hale, there's been progress on the matter you asked me to investigate."

Vivian's voice was serious, probably because he had found out something significant.

Adriana collected her eyebrows and immediately got up, walked to the bedroom and asked, "What's

the situation?"

"According to what I investigated, Brenden was in close contact with Matias Greene, the chairman of

the Aclurg Group, and made trips abroad to Los Angeles and Tibet at specific times of the year. I used

special connections and found out that he had a sum of money diverted to Los Angeles and Tibet

respectively once a year, about once every three months. The point is that Aclurg Group and Alston

Group have always been two rival companies and have never done any business together.

During the investigation found that he and a secret organization care very close, estimated behind the

power amazing."

Vivian briefly told Adriana about the situation and then asked curiously, "Ms. Hale, what are you doing

investigating Brenden? Aren't you guys quite close?"

To the outside world, everyone thought she and Brenden were very close.

Not waiting for Adriana to answer, but then heard Vivian added: "Alston Group, which includes the

cosmetics industry, has recently developed a new project, and I found out that Aclurg Group is also

secretly developing this project over there, so I don't know if it's a coincidence. However, the specific

still need time."

"Okay, I got it, hard work."

Adriana was already relieved to get so much information in a very short time. Another said: "Help me

find out the name and address of Brenden's frequent remittance account people. Follow up the

investigation with some care, do not be found, of course, the faster the better."

"Got it, Ms. Hale."

"Okay, it's late, you rest early, I have some things to do on my side."

After hanging up the phone, Adriana sat in her room, carefully mulling over the situation.

But to think about it, but can not think of a reason.

Now she can only wait for Vivian to do some research on the names and addresses of the two money

senders before she can learn more about Brenden.

But Vivian mentioned in the phone call that Brenden has a connection with a powerful background

address, so ......

You can imagine how miserable it would be if she really pissed off Brenden.

"Auntie?"

"Mommy?"

Suddenly, two children entered the room and ran to her with smiles, intimately burrowing into her arms,

"Play with us, okay?"

At that moment, Adriana looked at the two children and was amazed that the two children's features

were simply too similar.

Exactly the same, simply carved out of a mold.

Even though Adriana knew that a paternity test had already been done, but that time she coincidentally

met Peter in the hospital, she once again doubted that the test report could be false.

Held the two children and played with them for a while.

It wasn't until 8:30 that Adriana said to Luis, "Little boy, it's getting late, so you should go back to bed."

Luis beamed unhappily and bristled, "Okay, so can I still come over tomorrow?"

"Sure thing."

Adriana gave Luis a hug, took his hand, and pulled open the door, only to find that Peter had been

waiting for Luis in the hallway.

"Daddy, I'm done playing."

Luis walked up to Peter, took his hand and walked to Adriana's side, looked at Adriana with big round

eyes and asked, "Auntie, when Luis comes tomorrow, can you let Daddy go in with him?Luis feels so

sorry for Daddy."

The milk voice, listening to Adriana's heart a soft, raised his eyes to look at Peter, the two eyes

collided.

Adriana's eyes flashed with a little complexity.

"Okay, Auntie promises you."

"Really? Auntie is so nice."

Luis wrapped his arms around Adriana and hooked his fingers at her, Adriana leaned over and he

barks a kiss to her cheek.

"Luis is leaving, auntie don't miss me too much. helen, bye~"

Luis gave Helen and Adriana a quick hello and led Peter away.
