Chapter 274 Mutually Beneficial Cooperation

Book:My Sweet Lawyer Wife Published:2024-5-1

Adriana smiled, looked up and couldn’t help but jaw drop, “Hayley?”
After Brenden left the country that day, Hayley looked for Brenden everywhere, and at one point went straight to the airport for Brenden, and was finally pulled back by Jenkins.
Who knew that she would come over anyway.
With all the company business these days, I’m sure Jenkins hasn’t paid much attention to Hayley.
Thelma is extremely indulgent towards Hayley, and if she helps to excuse Hayley, it will be a breeze for her to leave Waverly.
Hayley walked down from the second floor at a brisk pace and stood in front of the two men, her eyes snapping back and forth, her chest heaving with anger, her eyes looking at Adriana with a pair of eyes looking at her love interest, “What are you doing over here, having a Peter isn’t enough, now you want to steal Brenden from me?”
“Rob Brenden?”
Adriana glanced at Brenden and shook her head, “Sorry, you’re overthinking it.”
“So what are you doing over here?”
Hayley’s aggressive and arrogant attitude is like treating herself as Brenden’s woman, or even as the owner of the estate.
“Hayley, I told you not to leave the country, why didn’t you listen?”
Now that Hayley is in Brenden’s hands, it’s no wonder that Brenden didn’t show too much excitement the moment he saw himself, let alone trying to restrain her.
It must be because of Hayley.
Hayley came to Brenden, which was tantamount to throwing herself at Brenden and giving him an extra trump card.
This is a real head delivery from a thousand miles!
There is no cure.
“Gee whiz, who am I to listen to you?” Hayley gave her an arrogant white glance, walked to Brenden’s side, wrapped her arms around Brenden’s neck and gave him a kiss on the cheek, “Peter, where did you go last night, I really missed you.”
The two were flirting in front of Adriana and Beatrice, making Adriana even more confused about the relationship between the three of them.
Only Beatrice didn’t look so good.
Brenden, on the other hand, gave Hayley a kiss on the lips and wrapped his arms around her waist in an extremely prickly pose.
“If Brenden you don’t have time, then we’ll talk another time.”
“Yes, how come I don’t have time.”
Brenden immediately replied, then patted Hayley on the buttocks, “Good girl, go wait for me upstairs first, I have something to discuss with her.”
Hayley skimmed her lips, twisted her waist like a petulant girl, glared reluctantly at Adriana, and went upstairs.
The pace was slow as he walked up the spiral staircase, his eyes fixed straight over, unblinking.
I’m afraid that Adriana will take advantage of this gap and snatch Brenden away.
After Hayley went upstairs, Adriana sat down and asked directly, “I assume that Peter knew where you were all along?”
Someone of his incredible strength, she Adriana can guess Brenden’s whereabouts, Peter can’t possibly not know.
“Why do you say that?”
“No reason, intuition.”
“Well, you’ll have to ask him yourself, not me.” Brenden leaned back on the couch, legs folded, arms stretched across the couch lean.
Adriana frowned, not bothering to care about anything else for a while.
Immediately pulled out a photo from the bag and put it on the table, “This person, do you recognize?”
On the photo, it is a picture of Theresa and a strange man, the photo of the strange man black mask covering his face, so that people can not see his real face.
Wearing a duck-tongue cap on his head, pressed low, covered tightly, it is really difficult to distinguish.
Brenden shook his head.
With that, Adriana pulled out another photo, “What about this one?”
Another photo shows Steff rubbing shoulders with the man, while wearing a duck-tongue hat and mask, making it impossible to identify his real identity.
But no matter which photo it is, Adriana can clearly distinguish that the person is not Brenden.
“Good.”
Adriana nodded, “How about we make a deal?”
“All ears.”
“In Waverly, I stayed for a short time and have no power or ability, but I know you are not very powerful, so I want you to help me investigate this person.”
From the start of the business until now, although Adriana knows a lot of people, but in the end, they are some down-to-earth people, and not the triads.
In Waverly, she is not well established, and now she is in trouble on all sides.
Alvin, she didn’t want to go to the trouble.
Harlee, who suddenly appeared and was so close, made her wonder who he was.
After thinking about it, I came to St. Peter’s Manor, for one thing, to see Beatrice.
The figure she saw yesterday looked like Brenden, so she came to try her luck, but she didn’t expect Brenden to be here.
“That’s all?”
He sits sideways and surveys Adriana with a puzzled look, always feeling that there is something Adriana is not saying clearly.
“There’s something else that should interest you even more.”
Adriana then pulled out another photo, which also showed the man in the duck-tongue hat, but this time he was meeting with no one else but the boss of the Aclurg Group, who had a mysterious relationship with Brenden.
She placed the photo on the table and stared straight at Brenden, as if trying to penetrate something in his face.
As expected, Brenden’s eyes were slightly glazed, hesitating for a moment before reaching out and picking up a photo from the table, his eyes looking slightly grim, his hands shaking uncontrollably, his emotions somewhat broken.
“This man, I think you want to know his identity even more. So, why don’t we work together.” Adriana said.
Brenden narrowed his narrow, sharp eyes slightly at her and asked, “Cooperation? You’re not afraid I’ll get you killed?”
“Afraid, of course afraid. But you have Hayley in your hands now, where will you get me killed? You should know very well that if I die, Peter will not let you have a good time. But, wouldn’t it be better for us to cooperate for mutual benefit?”
She is now working with a tiger, but at the same time Adriana is confirming her suspicions.
That is what role Peter played in this matter.
Is it worth trusting.
That’s the real reason she’s here, otherwise she wouldn’t have been so excited after seeing Brenden in the square yesterday.
“Mutually beneficial? Kind of interesting.” Brenden was somewhat intrigued.
Adriana continued: “You are very close to the president of the Aclurg Group and may be more interested in the person in this photo. After this is done, I will pay you a good amount of money, and our past is written off. With Peter around, you can’t hurt Helen, and with Hayley by your side, you can control me. So, this thing is in your favor, isn’t it?”
This is the third reason why Adriana is here, she wants to discover the relationship between Brenden and the head of the Aclurg Group through him.
Want to know Brenden’s true face after he rips off his disguise.
“That sounds perfect and smart. But why should I trust you?” Brenden was quite suspicious and kept a defensive attitude towards anything.
“Believe it or not, it’s up to you.”
Adriana has a straightforward attitude.
