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

Snapped, the gun crashed to the ground, her entire body had been stunned, stiffened her neck and slowly inclined her head, looked at Brenden and cried.
Howling lying beside him reaching out and shaking his body, “No, you can’t die, ah, ooh … Gaki, I’m sorry, I’m sorry …”
When she pointed the gun at Peter, Peter also pointed the gun at Anne, but Brenden did not know that she was holding a gun, but heard her yell ‘Peter, I’m going to kill you’, and at that moment, Brenden knew that Peter would definitely shoot Anne, so he did not spare any effort to lunge towards her. The first thing you need to do is to go towards her and try to block the gun for Anne and protect her and the baby in her womb.
But never thought that a move he made, not only for Anne blocked a shot, but also for Peter blocked a shot, although that shot hit Peter’s chances are not very good, but Brenden and Anne’s distance is extremely close, so close that only thirty centimeters away.
Even if Anne is a bad shot, she will hit him.
So much so that eventually two bullets, one after the other, penetrated Brenden’s chest.
The sound of dueling gunshots to one side gradually weakened, but Anne’s cries in front of her were that sad and miserable.
Peter flawless estimate them, but a hand to hold the woman who suddenly appeared beside him.
“Adriana, what brings you here?”
Just now it was her sudden appearance, trying to stop him from shooting, but in the end, it was a step too late.
Adriana looked at the scene in front of her, looking at the best friend with whom she had spent several years, and her heart ached until she could not breathe.
Having been betrayed by Theresa, she feels that she is not too unfortunate, at least she has Anne as her best friend.
But it wasn’t until two hours ago that one person found Adriana and gave her a letter stating that Anne had returned and been taken by Peter and that Anne was pregnant with twins.
Meanwhile, Anne’s own letter says that it’s not that she doesn’t have a date, but that her date has always been Brenden.
She said ‘Adri, of course I deserve to die, but I still have two children in my womb, they are innocent, I beg you on my knees to spare the two children.’
Because Peter and his brothers were fighting a bloody battle, in order not to reveal the target, the phones were put on silent, and could not hear Adriana’s call.
In the hospital, a frail Adriana was immersed in a great shock and could not calm down for a long time.
She hates and hurts, but in the end she can’t resist ‘kindness’!
Anne knows her too well and knows that she likes children, so she takes advantage of her soft spot.
Adriana really can’t bear to die with Anne’s child in her womb, so she still rushed over.
“Honey!”
What a bloody, tragic scene in front of her, but Adriana felt her heart ache even more, “Why, why is it like this? Oooh …”
From before to now, Adriana has experienced too much, betrayal, use, calculation, life and death …
It can be described as an ill-fated fate, Naive she never thought she would actually be miserable to this extent.
A girlfriends calculate, two girlfriends or calculate, even around are covered with many many false and false people and wear a false mask of the hunter.
Apart from Peter, Adriana really didn’t know who to trust.
The repeated betrayal, coupled with Anne’s betrayal, seemed to be the last straw that broke Adriana’s back, causing her to become so angry that she eventually blacked out and passed out again.
“Adriana? Adriana? Damn!”
Peter took Adriana by the hand and leaned down to hold her across his arms, then instructed the man beside him, “Aftercare.”
“Yes, boss.”
Peter did not care about anything else, immediately carried Adriana into the car and drove back to the hospital.
After a series of tests at the hospital, the doctor couldn’t find out what was causing the fainting spell, and finally only told Peter that Adriana might be anemic and suffering from chronic malnutrition.
Even though the man was angry in his heart and wanted to scold them for being a group of quacks, he held back his anger and said nothing, “Go out.”
He waved his hand, signaling the doctors to all go out.
Peter sat in the escort chair, holding Adriana’s hand in silent companionship the whole time.
After a long time, the ward door suddenly opened and Harlee burst in, “Adriana? Adriana, what’s wrong with her, what’s going on?”
Harlee couldn’t reach Adriana this afternoon and thought she just had something going on and didn’t think much of it, just stayed home with Eliza.
It wasn’t until someone called him in the night about the sensational shootout that took place along the coast that Harlee sensed something was wrong, and after investigating, he learned that Adriana was in the hospital.
Peter gave her a sideways glance, “Do you know where Ruth is? Or, how to find her?”
He asked instead of answering.
A distraught Harlee glanced at Adriana, who was sleeping heavily in the hospital bed, and then looked at Peter, and with a twist of her brow, she knew what she meant.
His meaning is very clear in saying that Adriana’s current fainting has something to do with the compulsion in her body, and if she wants to solve the problem of the compulsion, she must find Ruth.
“Ugh~”
Harlee sat on the end of the bed with her hand on the bed and let out a long-winded sigh, “How would I know where Ruth is if I haven’t seen her until now?”
It was just an afternoon without seeing each other, and Harlee never expected that so much would happen.
A quick glance at Peter’s bloodstained body is enough to know the severity and gruesomeness of today’s vicious battle.
He asked worriedly, “She, isn’t hurt, is she?”
Peter, shook his head and did not speak.
Two people, it seems, do not have a common language, and perhaps the two are preoccupied, no one wants to talk, just want to be quiet for a while.
Knock Knock-
A good while later, there was a knock on the door of the ward.
Peter turned around and saw Siena standing outside waving at him.
He got up, walked out, and closed the door.
“How’s it going over there?”
“One brother was seriously injured. But the other side was miserable, after Brenden left, the whole was a routed army, dead, wounded, fleeing. brenden’s men all fled, Tatum sent over the people naturally also left. But Brenden’s subordinate, Hamza, wounded Raylan.”
Siena told Peter the truth.
At that, Peter’s eyebrows knitted, “He can hurt Raylan?”
Siena reached up and touched her nose, a little unnaturalness flashed across her face, “He was trying to save me.”
Said, completely do not give Peter the opportunity to speak, immediately changed the subject, “By the way, Brenden … is not dead, resuscitated. And that Anne, let me out of the blue, in order to keep the child in the abdomen, actually do surgery without anesthesia, really … is a ruthless person.”
“But it’s a hard life.”
Peter raised an eyebrow, “It’s good not to die, keep him alive and send him to the base.”
“Yes.”
Siena jawed slightly.
“After you’re done you go back to take a break … to spend some time with Raylan and take me to say ‘thank you’ and that I owe him.”
Now when he remembers what happened before, Peter feels sorry for Raylan.
