Wife is a Lawyer

Chapter 1323 - Ruth Bleeds Out

In the face of Peter's question, Adriana looked up at the man close at hand, red lips pursed, eyes

shimmering.

Should I say?

Adriana thought about it for a moment and finally decided not to tell Peter.

The compulsion is not said to be solved, if Peter knows it will stimulate him, maybe he will go directly to

Chaya, in case it angers Chaya, the consequences are unimaginable.

"What can I have to hide from you? It's just that you acted too impulsively today."

She pushed Peter away, in order not to reveal the horse, Adriana still put on an angry look, "You know

that the poison in my body has not been lifted, and there are still two children in my belly, but you

angered Chaya, is not to put us at risk."

Peter's dark ink-like eyes gazed at Adriana, a deep flash under his eyes.

Although he sensed that Adriana was not telling the truth, Peter did not expose her lies.

Instead, he went along with her words and said, rather writing guiltily, "I'm sorry, it was my poor

consideration. But I think that things should not be as complicated as imagined."

"You think of everything!"

Adriana scolded him lightly and brushed him away.

Peter took her hand in his, "Where to?"

"I want to go out for a walk."

"The doctor said you need to stay in bed and recuperate."

"I'm just taking a walk, it's not that pretentious."

Adriana shrugged off his hand and walked slowly down the stairs.

This time, Peter did not follow Adriana, but simply stood at the stairway and watched her descend the

stairs.

Walking out from Qingfeng Yuan, Adriana was always followed by people behind her, those were the

people Peter sent to protect her.

Adriana is not exclusive.

Strolling alone on Betawell Mount, blowing in the warm breeze, immersed in the picturesque scenery,

she could not appreciate the scenery, but felt preoccupied and depressed.

Chaya put a parasite on the two children, which was Adriana's worst fear, but it happened.

After wandering outside for a while, just as Adriana was about to return to Qingfeng Yuan, a person

suddenly appeared and called out her name.

"Adri?"

At the sound of the voice, Adriana turned around and looked at the voice, only to see a man standing

under a tree not far away.

It's Ruth.

She remembered that Ruth had been badly injured in the morning, so how could she be here?

Although Adriana did not want to see Ruth, she was injured because of herself, and nearly lost her life.

After thinking about it, Adriana still stood still and didn't leave.

Ruth, holding her frail, sickly body, walked slowly to Adriana. "You, how are you?"

Obren has four seasons, the weather is not too cold and not too hot, very comfortable.

Now it is already evening, the wind is slightly cool, there will not be any hint of heat, but she is already

sweating profusely, her face is pale.

"Injured still out skulking, something Archie still must find me to settle accounts."

She teased.

She said so, but Adriana was really worried about Ruth.

"Peter hurt Bethany, Jonathan and Chaya will never let him off lightly, and probably will drag you down

with them. You ......"

Dressed in a loose black casual jacket, Ruth speaks in a low, mosquito-like voice that Adriana would

barely be able to hear if they weren't so close.

She paused in mid-sentence to catch her breath.

Mostly because of her injuries, she braced herself to walk as fast as she could to Adriana before she

was tired enough to take a break from talking.

"You and Peter must be careful."

Ruth went on to say.

"Interesting."

Adriana's moth brows furrowed lightly and she tilted her head to the side, silent for a moment before

looking back at Ruth, her fair and delicate face filled with coldness, "Please don't keep pretending to be

compassionate in front of me, okay?"

"I ......"

"You what you? You are the one who brought me into Obren, and now you are the one who told me to

be careful."

"I just want you to get out of Obren safely."

"If you really want me to leave Obren in peace, find a way to get the parasite and help me detoxify it.

Instead of hanging on to these words every time!"

Adriana couldn't hold back her anger.

God knows how angry she was to see Ruth.

As soon as she thought of the great danger to Helen and Luis, the two children still in Waverly, she

hated Ruth more and more and felt that she had caused her to be in such a situation.

"I ...... will, it just takes a little time, as long as you give me some time, I ......"

"That's enough, I don't want to listen to your bullshit!"

Adriana was in a bad mood and did not have a good attitude towards Ruth.

Coldly put down a sentence, turned around and walked away. © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

"Adri?Ad......"

Behind her, Ruth called her name, only to collapse before she could finish her sentence.

Adriana sensed something was wrong and when she turned around, Ruth was already lying on the

ground.

She hesitated for a moment, then turned and ran over, reached out and patted her on the arm, "Wake

up? Wake up?"

After a few shakes, Ruth showed no signs of waking up at all, and Adriana was ready to call out for

someone when Archie appeared from nowhere.

Seeing Ruth on the floor, he took three steps forward, "What's wrong with Ruth?"

"It should be fainting."

Adriana frowned and questioned Archie, "How could you let her out alone when you knew she was a

sick person?"

Archie leaned down and held Ruth across his arms, looked at Adriana, and said, "She wanted to see

you but Peter refused, and just now she learned that you had left Qingfeng Court and rushed over to

find you."

After the words, he did not dare to stay for a moment and ran away directly with Ruth in his arms.

And it was only then that Adriana saw a bloodstain remaining on the spot where Ruth had been lying.

Because Ruth was wearing black casual clothes, the blood on her body was not visible at all.

But after falling down, the wound tore, only to aggravate the bleeding and spill blood all over the floor.
