Wife is a Lawyer
Chapter 28 The Company Went Out Of Business
After this call, Adriana knew what Anne felt about this and she didn’t say anything more.
Then she just FaceTimed with Helen but at that time Helen was sound asleep and she didn’t want to wake her up.
After she hung up the phone, Adriana left the company and went to a bar to have a drink.
She felt sort of dizzy and didn’t dare to keep on drinking. She was afraid that if she drank too much, her stomach would hurt.
She grabbed her purse and walked to the front door. Then she saw a crowd of people were gathering not far away.
“Geez, that man hurt really bad. I feel bad for him.”
“Yeah, who did this to him? This is so cruel.”
“I don’t know.”
…
Hearing their words, Adriana walked up out of curiosity. Through the crowds, she saw a man was lying on the street. His face was covered with blood and somehow looked familiar.
This was…?
“Jenkins?!”
She tilted her head and took a look at that man and suddenly found out that this was her foster mother’s son, her brother, Jenkins Hale!
“Brother, are you alright?”
Adriana went sober all of a sudden. She pushed those people who were blocking the way aside and dashed towards him, “Brother, wake up!”
She squatted down and held Jenkins up. She patted his face but he didn’t seem to wake up for a while.
She took out her phone and wanted to call 911, only to find out that her phone died. She hurriedly asked the people around for help, “Could you please dial 911? My phone died. Please, help us.”
“That’s your brother?”
“Don’t panic, we’ve already called 911 and they’re on the way.”
“Yeah, we called minutes ago. Wait for a sec. Don’t worry.”
