Wife is a Lawyer

Chapter 1154 Alvin's mother

"Phew ......"

Adriana breathed a long sigh of relief, her heart overwhelmed with complications.

Today, if she didn't have something to do, she probably wouldn't have met with Alvin and the two of

them in private at all.

Adriana, who was originally very calm inside, sat in the box for a while because her whole mood

seemed a bit depressed after meeting with Alvin.

Just as she was getting up to leave, a person appeared at the door of the box.

It's ...... a woman dressed in a luxurious way.

This person she had met was none other than Alvin's mother, Emma.

Adriana has not talked with Mrs. Grant, but has seen her a few times and occasionally on the news.

"You're ......Adriana, Ms. Hale, right?"

The woman was dressed in a black cheongsam, a gray cloak draped over her shoulders, her long hair

was polished and coiled behind her head, a few fine lines could be seen on her extremely well-kept

face, even so, it did not affect her beauty in any way.

Surrounded by beads, the charm remains.

It's easy to see that she must have been a beauty in her youth.

Adriana stood up, "Mrs. Grant wants to see me, what can I do for you?"

Alvin left on the first foot, Mrs. Grant followed, obviously she must have seen Alvin leave before she

came.

Mrs. Grant closed the door of the compartment and went to sit down opposite Adriana, "It is a bit abrupt

to look for you, but I hope Ms. Hale must be understanding of my heart as a mother."

Listening to her words, Adriana was a bit confused, "I don't understand what Mrs. Grant means.

However, Alvin and I are friends, and he and honey are good brothers, so Mrs. Grant might as well say

what she has to say."

After knowing Alvin for so many years, this was a real meeting with Mrs. Grant.

Mrs. Grant clasped her hands somewhat nervously, her eyes flashed, and shook her head with a sigh,

"Alas ...... me, I actually shouldn't have come to beg you, but I really had no choice."

She lamented.

Without speaking, Adriana sat across from her, shuffling her ears.

"You know Alvin's idle nature, he never liked to work in the company since he was a kid, and he didn't

want to take over The Grant Family Company. A few years ago, he was suddenly willing to return to

work at the company, at that time, although some confusion, but later realized that the silly boy is all

because of you. Alas ......"

Another long sigh, Mrs. Grant continued: "But anyway, Alvin the boy at least went to the company for a

few years, but last year he suddenly resigned from the company, and then a few days at home alone,

then packed his bags and went to the mountains.

As you know, we only have two brothers, Alvin and Spencer, and Spencer is weak, so how can he

carry the company's big responsibility? But Alvin has always refused to take over the burden of the

company. Now that his father and I are old, how many more days can we have? Not to mention that the

two children have not yet started a family, but also worry about the company's affairs.

How much effort and hard work has gone into making The Grant Family what it is today? If no one can

hold up the company, then it won't be long before they take over and the company will change its

name."

It is not uncommon for a joint-stock company to change ownership if it is not run well.

Mrs. Grant's consideration is indeed that.

"I heard that The Grant Family's eldest son has recovered, take some days to recuperate and get

familiar with the company, he will definitely be able to take up a big role."

Adriana paid a smile and responded.

"Oh, that's what outsiders say. what's Spencer's situation, others don't know, but I, as a mother, still

don't know?"

"Does Alvin know?"

"I know, but he just does not want to stay at home, stubbornly want to leave. That nature, and his father

a child."

Adriana had never talked to Mrs. Grant before, but when she met her today, she found her to be quite

friendly and a very good person to get along with.

"Yes, Alvin is really a stubborn person." Adriana and Mrs. Grant agree on Alvin's comments.

"In fact,...... I know Alvin that child has always liked you, so many years I have arranged blind dates for

him, but also helped him find a lot of girls with good qualifications, but he either did not see, or directly

told people that he has a favorite object.

And now that you've married Peter's kid, I shouldn't have come looking for you. But I really have no

choice, I'm really desperate. I hope you can persuade Alvin together with Peter to stay and not to go

away."

The Grant Family in Waverly is a big family, how many people meet Mrs. Grant are flattering humble

attitude, but this time Mrs. Grant in front of Adriana but put down the high posture, even low voice to

ask for help from her.

Seeing this scene, Adriana's heart was very unhappy.

"Mrs. Grant ......"

She shook her head, crossed her fingers and placed them on the table, tilted her head to look out the

window, with some difficulty. "Alvin was born to be free, to follow his heart and not to be constrained.

He yearns for the outside world and does not like to take care of the company. Although Mrs. Grant has

a point, but if he is forced to do things he does not like, he may not be happy."

"What about Spencer's weakness, his dad's health is getting worse by the day, so I can't just go sit in

the office?"

Mrs. Grant was so anxious that she couldn't help but raise her voice a few notches.

I'm sorry, I'm just too anxious, Alvin is leaving in a few days, if you don't help me, I can't do anything."

The matter has come to this, Adriana can no longer politely refuse, nodded, agreed.

"Okay, I'll try it. But success or failure, I ......"

She wanted to say something but didn't need to say anything else, Mrs. Grant understood. A smile

immediately spread across her sad face, "Yes, yes, Ms. Hale, thank you very much."

Adriana was not used to having her hand held intimately, so she silently drew back her hand and

smiled politely, "I'll leave you to it then."

She got up, put on her scarf, and left with her bag.

Who knows that just a few steps away, Mrs. Grant's voice sounded again behind him, "Ms. Hale, if

there was no Peter, would you consider Alvin?"

The abrupt question made Adriana's pace slow and incredulous.

She slowly turned around, her complex eyes fell on Mrs. Grant's body, wooden for a few seconds.

In a moment, Adriana's flawless face lifted into a polite smile, "Mrs. Grant, where in the world is the

'what if'?"

With these words, Adriana said no more, went downstairs and drove back.

Asnana villa.

When Adriana returns home, Peter is sitting on the couch in the living room, waiting for Adriana.

"Honey?"

Entering the living room, Adriana changed into a pair of pink plush slippers in the foyer, walked over to

Peter and sat down, leaning on his shoulder, "Do you know who came back to me just now after Alvin

left?"

"Who?"

Peter asked as he closed the laptop in his lap and placed it on the table, raising his arm around her

shoulders.

"Emma." Content is © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

Peter's brow furrowed, "You mean Alvin's mother?"

"Hmm."

"Is she asking you to step in and retain Alvin?"
