Chapter 782 Puppet on a String

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

Alvin lay on the hospital bed and looked at her sideways, “It’s too suffocating in the room, can you push me out for a walk?”
Pointed to the wheelchair that was sent over by the medical staff at that moment.
“Er … that’s fine, OK.”
Brenda didn’t expect Alvin to actually not hate her, or even forgive her for everything.
At this moment, she really found herself and Alvin is the difference between clouds and mud, can not match, more can not afford to climb.
He is as holy as the snow lotus in the Tianshan Mountains, out of the silt.
She, however, is a duckweed in the gutter, the surface is shiny, the inside is dirty.
At this moment she felt deeply guilty and blamed herself.
If she knew that, why did she do that to Alvin in the first place?
Walked up to Alvin, escorted him to get up, moved the man a little to the wheelchair, panting with exhaustion.
“Isn’t it heavy?”
The man smiled warmly, and his spring-like attitude made people comfortable.
“No, it’s fine.”
Brenda smiled, “Come on, I’ll push you out to see.”
Pushing him, he walked out of the ward and took the elevator downstairs.
Private hospitals have back gardens for inpatients to take a walk to rest and relieve their mood.
The two walked in the back garden, feeling the warmth of the afternoon sun, the beauty of spring, the blooming flowers, the birds crying softly, everything was so beautiful.
Brenda suddenly felt that every moment now is so precious, making her feel good and then with a little sadness.
“My brother, recovered.”
Alvin initiated the conversation.
“Hmm? …”
Brenda, whose mind wandered, responded half-heartedly, “Oh, that’s nice. Your brother, nice guy, good people get good rewards.”
That’s why she, the scum, ended up like this.
“My mom said to let you come home for dinner when you’re healed.”
“No, no, no, no, no need to go. When I get out of the hospital the crew has to shoot a scene, just over in Dali, Yunnan, I guess there is no time.”
She pulled a random excuse.
Unbeknownst to her, because her agent couldn’t contact her recently, she was directly warned by ringing alarm bells in many ways.
Because of taking various announcements, some of which have been contracted, if they are not fulfilled, they have to pay for breach of contract.
She is now in the hospital and has gotten sick again.
The money and fame that I once cared about has long since become less important, and instead I feel I should make it easier on myself.
“Really not going?”
Alvin asked again.
“I’m really busy and don’t have time, so take a message to your aunt and tell her not to be angry.”
Brenda smiled bitterly and blinked her eyes.
I do not know if the sunset afterglow stings the eyes or eyes into the sand, actually sore eyes, swirling with a layer of water mist.
She cursed her own stupidity in her heart, once there was such a beautiful and happy life in front of her eyes, she actually did not know to cherish, and now it is too late to regret.
“By the way, I’m planning to teach in the deep mountains, do you want to go with me?” Alvin asked.
This question, Brenda half a day did not say anything.
Instead, he parked his wheelchair on the curb and wondered what he was thinking.
“Do you know anything about HIV? It’s not as scary as you think it is. I let you down today to tell you that I have a friend who is very capable in this field of HIV, and if you let her help you with the disease, although you can’t be cured, you can at least extend your life span by more than ten years.”
“No, no need.”
Brenda refused outright.
Recalling in her mind what Tatum had had sent over at that moment, she suddenly understood a lot.
Instead of being a puppet on a string, it is better to live the life you want.
So, she refuses.

It was already six o’clock when Adriana finished working in the office for a while.
It’s time to leave work.
“Adriana?”
She had just leaned back in her chair to rest for a while when Harlee came rushing in, looking like she was coming over to ask for help.
“Is something wrong?”
Adriana lazily opened her eyes and looked at him, knowingly.
The man stood in front of her, hands propped up on his desk, sharp eyes glaring at her, “Eliza’s here?”
“Uh-huh. What’s going on?”
As early as a month or so ago, Eliza said she would come over to see her, and then there was a delay due to various circumstances, so Eliza only came over a few days ago.
At home, she was always accompanied by Vivian.
“She … she …”
Harlee stammered for a long time but couldn’t get a word in edgewise.
This made Adriana a bit more interested.
Straightening up, propping her elbows on the desk and resting her chin, she winked and smiled mischievously, “I’ve always been curious, what exactly is your relationship with Eliza?”
From the initial accidental wiretapping at Motril with Raylan and the two of them, to the present.
Adriana had not investigated the relationship between Harlee and Eliza, but was curious.
Harlee’s eyes flickered, reached out and scratched his head, skimmed his lips, and didn’t say anything.
“Okay, forget it if you don’t say it, then you don’t have to see Eliza.”
When Harlee was with Eliza, it was clear that Eliza was deliberately playing dumb and avoiding Harlee.
What is the history between them?
“Adri, what I do with Eliza has nothing to do with you, so just stay out of it and mind your own business, okay.”
Harlee tapped her slightly curled fingers on the table, a little anxious.
“Well, good. Then take your time and don’t bother me at work.”
Adriana doesn’t care about that. Since Harlee won’t say anything, she won’t let him get close to Eliza.
At that time in Motril with Raylan eavesdropping, heard Eliza said that know Harlee what secret, but will not say it.
This brother, what other secrets are hidden in his body?
“Adriana, you … you don’t go overboard.”
For Adriana, Harlee spoiled in the heart is not enough, now she is threatened by her, is really helpless.
Pointing at him, he threatened in a pretentious manner, “I’m telling you, if you don’t call Eliza out, don’t blame me for getting someone to break down your door.”
“Don’t you dare try!”
“I … you see I dare not!”
“Harlee, I’m telling you, if you dare to take Eliza from me, then I don’t have you as a brother.”
This time, it was Adriana who took the initiative to acknowledge the fact that he was the ‘brother’ without Harlee asking for it.
It really made his heart happy.
The serious face instantly swept up in a smile, grinning, “Hey hey hey, sister, brother’s good sister, you just give me Eliza. Otherwise, you still do not want sister-in-law?”
Sister-in-law?
So Harlee is into her.
“If you want to drag someone to be your wife, you have to see if they agree. harlee, Eliza is pregnant.”
Adriana told Harlee the situation in a very serious manner.
Hearing her words, Harlee was stunned, pupils wide, full of incredulity.
“What did you say? Pregnant with …? When did that happen?”
“Heh, you ask a funny ah, when you when the matter, you will not be clear in your own heart?”
Glancing at Harlee, you can be a really irresponsible man.
In one sentence, Harlee blushed.
Adriana couldn’t resist asking, “The boy, do you want it or not?”
“Yes, of course.”
“Want it? Have you thought about it? Are you so afraid of the old man that he will let you marry a woman who is ordinary and mentally ill.”
