Chapter 79: Meeting the Attack Head-On
Suddenly realizing the seriousness of the matter, Alonso flung himself on his knees in front of her.
The sudden scene surprised and surprised everyone, who looked at Alonso, who was kneeling in front of Adriana, in disbelief.
"What's wrong with Alonso?"
"I don't know, did he cheat?"
"What's going on?"
"Suddenly it's a little hard to read."
Colleagues in the office were talking, exchanging words and talking non-stop.
The moment Peter saw Alonso on his knees, his brow wrinkled and he couldn't tell how angry he was.
"Waste!"
With an angry rebuke, he turned around and left the legal department.
"Mr. Alston, why did you leave all of a sudden?"
Adriana's lips held a triumphant smile as she gazed at the departing Peter, "The police comrades are all still there, how can you cooperate with the police investigation?"
"I cooperate, I cooperate."
When Peter replied, Alonso took the lead and said, "Comrade police, I have recruited everything. Yesterday Adriana came to the company, the minister asked us to make things difficult for Adriana and then deliberately kept Adriana in the company to work overtime, calculating to frame her, this way can force her to leave the company. So the minister planned to plant the evidence. I was just a cheap watch, but the watch was at home, not lost at all, all because the minister told me to say so. You have something to do with our minister, not me."
The police have not yet asked the cause and effect of the matter, Alonso already a brain to tell all the things, "Adriana, the 300,000 yuan I immediately returned to you, not only that, I also give you 50,000 yuan compensation costs. I'll give you 50,000 yuan in compensation. Don't forget about me, okay?"
Both practicing law, Alonso naturally knew the seriousness of the matter.
I thought this matter can either force Adriana away, or can blackmail a sum of money, but who knows Adriana is so tactful, all recorded.
He himself has no evidence to prove that he purchased an expensive watch, as long as the police comrades a little investigation will know everything.
At that time, ironclad evidence, he will face is a huge amount of extortion of 300,000, more than ten years of imprisonment.
Adriana has a saying that has merit, people, how many decades can there be in a lifetime.
"Surprisingly, Adriana is really innocent?"
"Oh my God, the amazing reversal."
"Is it true that Alonso did this with the minister? How come I didn't know?"
"Tsk......Adriana really has some tricks up her sleeve, and she's really not a simple person."
Colleagues who were talking about it had a change of heart about Adriana.
"Alonso, don't be ridiculous, what does this have to do with me?" Nelson how did not expect that he ended up in the hands of his own subordinates and would directly cut off his future. "Minister, you're the one who told me, I still have our call records on my phone, you can't let me take the blame alone. You're the mastermind, I'm an accessory at best."
Alonso is desperate to get rid of his responsibilities.
The two men got into an argument.
"All right, all right, stop arguing and come with me to the police station."
The police comrade listened to the two people making a lot of noise, some annoyance, a wave of the hand, with a few people left the company.
An hour later, outside the police station.
Adriana got back in one piece and got the $300,000 back without a hitch.
"I didn't see that coming, but you're a smart one." Brenden followed Adriana, looking at her with interest.
"It's just a matter of necessity."
Adriana was cold-faced and did not have a good attitude towards Brenden.
As early as the company knew that she was wronged, but if no one stood up for her, she wanted to argue for herself without a chance.
That's why the idea of getting Brenden to come to the company, which led to this scene today.
If Brenden doesn't come, she wants to complain, but there is no way to do so.
"It means I didn't misjudge the person."
Brenden walked towards his limo, "Come on, I'll give you a ride back to the office."
"No need."
Adriana was indifferent, pulled away from him, walked straight to the curb, stopped a cab and got in.
However, she had just gotten in the car and was about to close the door when Brenden followed her up.
Closed the door.
"Why are you up here too?"
What is wrong with this person's brain? Let the luxury cars do not do, but must follow the cab, how do you mean?
"Anyone knows about your relationship with me now, what would they say if you were left alone to do a cab to the office?"
Brenden gave her an evil smile, but there was a cold chill under his eyes, "I just want to avoid all unnecessary trouble."
So, after all, Brenden is not doing her a favor, but hopes that she will soon get a foothold in the Alston Group and become his right-hand man. "Heh, Mr. Alston is really a smart guy."
Adriana laughed sarcastically and said to the driver, "Alston Group, please."
More than ten minutes, Alston Group.
Adriana got out of the car and followed Brenden into the office.
This time, with Brenden following Adriana's side, everyone was sure of the relationship between Adriana and Brenden, and had scruples about Adriana.
After all, the person standing behind her was no other than the company's vice president.
When he returned to the company, he just arrived at the legal department and was taken by the secretary to the president's office.
She walked in just as Brenden came out of his office, and the moment they met, Brenden smiled at her, "Work well and talk to me if you have something to do." The tone was gentle to the extreme, and the secretary could feel Brenden's doting on her as she listened.
But only Adriana knows how much Brenden is doing, but she can't show it.
"Mr. Alston, Ms. Hale is coming over."
The secretary turned around and walked out after the briefing, closing the office door.
Peter, who was sitting at his desk, looked up at Adriana with a cold hum, "What a good tactic, I underestimated you before."
A battle with Adriana, the little woman won.
Alonso is facing a prison sentence and Minister Nelson Dean is involved in a lawsuit, but Adriana has no intention of sparing the two.
"Compared to Mr. Alston, no less."
Adriana had a formulaic smile on her lips, not wanting to say too much in his presence, "Is there anything else for Mr. Alston, if not I will go out first."
I don't think she was called over from the legal department just to say a few words, right?
"I called you here to inform you that as of today, you are officially joining the Legal Department. The premise is that the appeals against Alonso and Nelson Dean are withdrawn." That case, in the end, both people are innocent.
Peter is not one to implicate the innocent, even though he is a killer.
Moreover, Alonso and Nelson Dean are still available, now let them back to the legal department, only afraid that Adriana's future will not be easy.
I don't believe this woman won't know what to do.
"Mr. Alston's ploy to use a knife to kill someone is a good one."
Adriana saw right through Peter's calculations.
"Sometimes, it's not necessarily good for a woman to be too smart." Peter's voice was low, and the obscure eyes held a stern and murderous aura.
