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

“I asked you to come over today simply because I wanted to have a chat with you.”
Raylan changed the subject, not wanting to see Adriana’s heavy and hurt look, he said, “By the way, Alvin is coming back tomorrow.”
“Senior will be back tomorrow?”
Adriana’s eyes lit up with some excitement.
“I thought he wouldn’t come back this year, but I didn’t expect to come back.”
She leaned on the card seat, looked ahead and sighed, “Back then, because of Brenda’s matter, the senior was also very hurt, I wonder if the six months have healed the wound in his heart.”
For more than half a year, it has been so busy with Peter’s affairs and the company that it has no time to care about anything else.
Among all of them, except Peter, the person she is most at ease with is Alvin.
” Alvin is a strong person, you don’t have to worry about that. Besides, it’s better for you to worry about yourself now.”
Raylan pursed his lips, pulled out something from his suit pocket and placed it in front of Adriana, “For you.”
“What?”
A delicate gold velvet box.
Adriana, not knowing what was inside, picked up the rectangular box and opened it to reveal a beautiful and delicate necklace lying inside.
Under the illumination of the dim light of the box, the necklace shone with starbursts, very bright and dazzling.
Something that beautiful is worth a lot of money at first glance.
Adriana closed the box and placed the item in front of Raylan, “It’s too valuable for me to take.”
“Are you sure you can’t take it?”
Raylan raised an eyebrow, the corners of his lips held a little playful, “Peter knows that you came out with me, and knows about our ‘unpleasant’ past, if you don’t take the necklace back, you think, he won’t be suspicious?”
A smart man with a fearsome mind.
Adriana froze, glanced at Raylan and then at the one brocade box, pursed her lips, “Raylan, you’ve done too much, what do I have to do to pay off my debt?”
By and large, it really is a lifetime of not being able to pay back.
“I don’t need you to pay it back, because the only way you can remember to owe me a favor is if you can’t pay it back, and at least, you have me in your heart.”
“You …”
“Hahahahaha … teasing you.”
Raylan met her face to face and smiled, “Okay, order your food, eat early and get back early.”
“Hmm.”
The two then ordered some Western food and chatted while they dined.
At 9 p. m., the two left the Western restaurant and went their separate ways.
And just after Adriana’s car and Raylan’s car left, a Land Rover that was hidden in a hidden place slowly pulled out.
Hank drove and followed Raylan’s car until Raylan’s car separated from Adriana’s car, then he accelerated to pass and then blocked directly in front of Raylan.
Snort–
A car appeared in front of him, Raylan braked hard, the whole person inertia leaned forward, and was dragged back by the seat belt.
The door of the car in front opened and a person stepped out from inside.
It’s Peter.
Raylan was not surprised, unbuckled his seat belt and stepped out of the car.
He just knew that as soon as he met with Adriana, Peter would show up.
As expected, I guessed correctly.
Cold wind hunting, two people standing in front of the car, because of the backlight, looking at each other are some blinding, unclear.
The two walked to the curb and stood side by side.
Peter took out a cigarette, held it in his lips, lit it, and took a deep drag.
“Leave her.”
Three concise words, without any unnecessary nonsense.
Perhaps Peter didn’t want to talk to Raylan at all.
The company’s main business is to provide a wide range of products and services to its customers. You can’t give Adri happiness, but I can give her, and between me and her is not visible. And you guys, you’re together every day in the open, isn’t that enough? ”
Peter’s lips were pursed, biting the butt of his cigarette, his eyes slightly narrowed, and a little chill flashed under his eyes.
“I say again, leave … Adriana!”
He and Raylan also initially did not fight with each other because of Adriana, now, after all, did not get rid of the shadow of the past.
“No way!”
Raylan said in a breezy voice.
“You’re provoking me?”
Peter slowly turned around and looked at him.
The wind whips through, the cigarette ashes scattered with the wind, cigarette starbursts brightly, reflecting Peter’s deep three-dimensional face more cold and appalling.
“If you were provoked, Adri would not be by your side right now. Peter, you are nothing but an invalid, who are you to compete with me? Can you give Adri happiness? If you can’t give it, what you should do is let go of it, not confine Adriana to your side and be a widow!”
As a man, hearing Raylan’s last words is undoubtedly provoking his bottom line.
Peter’s right hand swirled, a sharp dagger appeared within his palm at some point, and with a fierce lift of his hand, a dagger was placed directly against Raylan’s neck, “What, you think I won’t kill you?”
“Boss, don’t be impulsive!”
Hank stood by, he knew exactly what was going on in his heart, but now that he saw Peter take on Raylan, he didn’t know what to do.
Both Adriana and Raylan, both of whom were silently helping Peter, and now Peter is holding a dagger to Raylan.
Hank is worried that Raylan will reveal the truth, but he is also worried that Peter will hurt Raylan by mistake!
“Get out!”
Peter chortled.
Hank was instantly silenced and stood aside, not speaking.
On the contrary, Raylan indifferently swept a glance at the cold dagger clamped on the neck, very calm, “If you dare to make a move on me today, I guess, not tomorrow, Adri will break up with you. She’s the woman you’ve loved all your life, so you’re not going to lose her because of me, right? The first thing you should do is to take a look at the situation.
Raylan’s words are true, but word for word, they are heartbreaking.
I don’t know if the cold night is too cold, or Raylan’s words are too solid, Peter just feels shivering with cold, making his body a little unstable.
“Honey, stop it!”
At that moment, a car came at great speed, Adriana got out and ran straight over to see Peter with a dagger in his hand to Raylan’s neck.
She was so frightened that she immediately rushed over, grabbed the blade with her bare hands, snatched the dagger from Peter’s hand, and threw it to the ground with a clang, glaring angrily at Peter, “Are you crazy? Do you know what you are doing?”
Adriana was already feeling guilty about Raylan, but God knows how nervous she was when she saw Peter holding a dagger at Raylan.
On the way back, Adriana made a phone call to Peter, only to be answered by the maid.
The maid said she left on the first foot and Peter left on the second.
It was at that moment that Adriana realized that Peter had followed her.
But on the way, she didn’t spot Peter’s car through the rearview mirror, so guessed that Peter must havecome over to look for Raylan.
