Billionaire's Famous Lawyer Ex-Wife Chapter 13 Won't you invite me to have a seat?
Calvin looked at the advertisement expressionlessly.The sales girl took out two boxes and settled the bill together, “It’s a new model and very popular!”Calvin didn’t refuse and said, “Help me make a cup of ginger tea, thank you!”Adriana went to the bathroom to do the aftermath. When she looked at her pants, she frowned. It was ruined completely. Then, Calvin’s car would be also ruined, right?’Adriana's face darkened as she stood outside the car, feeling embarrassed to get in. “Well, I will take a taxi, you can go by yourself!”Calvin rolled down the passenger seat window and sneered coldly, “After dirtying mine car, you also want to dirty others.”Adriana wanted to laugh, but she couldn’t. He is worthy of the title of King of Hell. His words were always cold and ruthless.As soon as Adriana got in the car, Calvin handed her a cup of hot ginger tea, “Drink it!”Adriana looked at him suspiciously, thinking, ‘Where did he get it?’“What? You don’t want to drink? Then throw it away!

Adriana looked at him calmly and said, “In that case, please go ahead. I am not going to invite you in. Please excuse me.”Calvin said coldly, “Adriana, you have changed a lot.”Hearing his sarcastic remarks, she smiled back, “Really? By the way, you also have changed a lot. After all, with your temper before, I am afraid Carl’s brother-in-law would not have just lost an arm.”Calvin smiled coldly, looking at Adriana without blinking. He just opened his mouth slightly, showing his porcelain white teeth.Objectively speaking, Adriana is very beautiful. She had smooth white skin and with perfect and exquisite figure.The number had times Calvin had intimate contact with her body was not much, but he still remembered her dazzling body.However, it was a pity that her heart was even more poisonous than a snake and scorpion.Thinking about the betrayal she did to him, Calvin clenched his fists tightly and his face was filled with the coldness.“What? Are you feeling bad for him?”Adriana w

“Adriana?”The maid recognized her and greeted her.Looking at the person in front of her, Adriana breathed a sigh of relief and smiled, “Maria, long time no see!”Maria is a woman in her fifties. She is George’s nanny, in charge of his food and living. Maria is a clean and tidy lady. Even after so many years, she hadn’t changed much. She is still as gentle as before.Maria is the only person who treats Adriana well in this house.Maria looked around before taking a few steps forward. “Have you had a good time these past few years? Why did you lose so much weight?”Adriana and Calvin’s divorce was unknown to the outside world. Even the maids of the house didn’t know about it. They had inadvertently learned about it from their master’s conversation a few months later. Then things about the netting of the family and the sweeping of their reputations came to their ears one after the other.Other people discussed privately that Adriana was kicked out of her house, some say that the Clarke

Only when George stopped scolding, Calvin opened his mouth, “Grandpa!”The servant who had been scolded like an amnesty, stood at the door holding the tea tray. Looking at Calvin, he greeted, “President!”Seeing Adriana behind Calvin, he was dumbfounded.‘How did the president bring Adriana back?’George also didn’t expect to see Adriana again in this life. He narrowed his eyes and looked at Adriana coldly, “Outsiders are not welcome here?”Hearing this, Adriana was overjoyed. She couldn’t wait to go away.However, before she could move, Calvin pulled her wrist and said, “I am the one who asked her to come here.”George sat on the sofa angrily. His body was surrounded with a murderous aura, “Do you think you have a lot of money and asked her to spend for you? But let me tell you, even if you have a mountain of gold and silver, some people are still able to empty them!”Hearing his words, Adriana's ears turned red, feeling uncomfortable in her heart. Her eyes sank downward.Calvin said

“What do you mean by this?”“It’s simple, feelings will disappear, but assets can be always there. If she wants to marry into our Walker family, first I have to see how much money Karl can afford to put down. If we get married, Walker's family can give them the resources they can’t even imagine. So, I also want to know what can I get from them. To put it bluntly, I have what he has, and I also have what he doesn’t have. So, it is him who needs to flatter me, not me!”George appreciates Calvin’s wisdom and strategy, so he is the most valued among his many descendants. However, when he used this wisdom against him, he didn’t like it.Calvin added, “Anna's looks are also normal and she didn’t look like a fairy. I also don’t need their wealth to lead the Grand Empire as it had been already in the top for a hundred years and I don’t think anyone would be able to shake it. So, in this deal, no matter how you look, I am at a loss.”Adriana listened from the sideline and her outlook was const

“You… Shut up!” Naturally, George wouldn’t question his grandson in front of outsiders, so the one in the wrong could only be Adriana.“Have you forgotten how many benefits your family received from the Walker family? Even if you work for your lifetime, you still can’t repay them! And do you think you deserve to say that you owe us nothing!”Adriana laughed bitterly, “Good, good, very good! After being held back for so many years, you finally said it out! What, are you feeling bad?”At this moment, Adriana wanted to say that, what my family had taken from your family, I will return a single penny!But she knew that she didn’t have the strength to do so. Even if her father, brother, and everyone in our family sell their bones and meet to compensate, it will not be enough.“The day we got divorced, we made it clear that from now on there is no longer any relationship between us and we will not interfere in each other lives. If it weren’t for your grandson forcing me to be his lawyer, le

Adriana didn’t remember how she walked out of the Walker family villa and went to the hospital.Sitting on the hospital bed, Adriana tried her best not to shed tears.The nurse who was dressing her wound saw her painful expression and said softly, “The wound is too deep, so it must be painful. If you can’t endure it, you can cry out! It’s okay!”Adriana lowered her head as the tears rolled down from her eyes and fell on her pants. She didn’t make any sound, only her shoulders trembled.Yes, it hurt… the wound hurt.However, the pain in her shoulder was nothing compared to the pain in her heart.Calvin had made her his lawyer, just to take revenge on her. Adriana wanted to stay away from him, but because of the amount of breach of contract, she couldn’t do it. In short, right now she was like a mouse in Calvin’s hand, who could pinch her neck anytime.Calvin was the cruelest person Adriana had met in her life. She hated the day she fell in love with that heartless man.Adriana was rest

Getting a hit from George wasn't that bad, as after that day, Calvin didn’t come to look for her, and she had a few peaceful days.Adriana went to the law firm as usual, looked at the case file, set the date for court, and met the defendant’s lawyer.As expected, Calvin didn’t appear in court himself but sent the head of the technical department of Grand Empire. The man in front of her was in his forties, wearing gold-rimmed glasses and a formal suit, exuding a noble aura.It was probably the corporate culture of the Grand Empire, as even the few staff sitting in the audience had a noble temperament.According to Calvin’s request, the Grand Empire asked the other party to pay a compensation of $2 million. This figure was much higher than the previous similar lawsuits, so it was rejected.However, Adriana had expected that.After the court, Adriana and the executive briefly chatted. The main reason was that she wanted him to talk to Calvin. If the compensation claim were reduced to the

“Deputy Director Carson, you can be bold in choosing your rivals, but there’s no need to drag me into the vanguard.” Adriana wrenched her wrist, trying to push the man away.Carson overpowered her effortlessly, not budging. “What’s your relationship with Calvin? Judging by your reaction, it doesn’t seem like you’re in love. What is it? Does he have his eyes on you and want to possess you?”From his words, Adriana could at least be certain that he didn’t know about her past with Calvin. That was a relief.She forced a stubborn smile. “In what capacity is Deputy Director Carson inquiring about my private life?”Carson’s smile widened as if he had just received a long-awaited gift. “What identity would you like me to use? Or maybe you’d rather assign me a new one? Boyfriend would be nice.”People were all different from one another.Adriana clutched her bag in front of her, and for some reason, the image of sleeping in the car with Calvin last night surfaced in her mind. Her cheeks flush
Billionaire's Famous Lawyer Ex-Wife Chapter 169 This sorry, what it is for?
Adriana didn’t really want to talk to Jessica. She didn’t think there was anything worth discussing.“Go ahead.”However, the red veins in Jessica’s tired eyes and her overall haggard appearance stirred a bit of sympathy in Adriana, softening her heart.In the empty conference room, only the two of them remained—one with swollen, tear-filled eyes and the other still trying to sort out the mess in her head and heart. The atmosphere wavered between awkwardness and tension.Jessica sat down by the window, the light casting shadows over her face, making half of it bright while the other half remained dark. Tears welled up in her eyes.“Lawyer Clarke, I’m sorry.”Adriana sat diagonally across from her. The chair had been moved slightly out of place—she didn’t bother adjusting it, only tilting her head to the side as she observed Jessica.“This apology… what is it for?”Was it for talking behind my back? Or for ganging up on me at the firm to isolate me? Adriana wondered.She had already he

Adriana pulled up the neckline of her dress, trying to cover as much skin as possible. "Calvin, you don’t actually want to do something like this here, do you?"What was the point of all their conversations if they led to this?She had already brought up the biggest conflict between them to remind him to stop bothering her. Why didn’t he have any sense at all?Calvin suddenly looked as if he had lost his memory, completely forgetting the tense and somber atmosphere from just a few minutes ago. Instead, his expression darkened with something more dangerous, his gaze sweeping over her. "Wearing such a sexy dress… isn’t it just to attract a man’s attention? Physically speaking, I’d say you made the right choice."He rolled over, about to press down on her, but Adriana braced herself with her hands, pushing against him. Her neck tilted back as far as possible to avoid his mouth. "Calvin, if you do this, I will really have to sue you for harassment! Don’t touch me!"Calvin wasn’t truly try

Calvin’s mother, who had never been impressed with Adriana and looked down on the Clarke family, immediately demanded that the wedding be called off.Desperate, Adriana had begged her father to donate a large sum of money to the temple, hoping to persuade a senior monk to break the so-called curse.The old monk hesitated, his expression troubled, as if altering fate itself was an impossible task. He spoke in riddles, his words elusive and difficult to grasp. But in the end, he told her:"Girl, if you truly wish to marry him… it may lead to death. You must think carefully."He never revealed a way to break the curse.And what happened afterward proved his warning true.As Calvin secured the final wrap of the bandage, his gaze darkened with anger."Adriana, you’ve studied for so many years, even gone abroad for further education, and yet you still believe in this feudal superstition?"Adriana’s moist eyes shimmered, her lips curving into a fragile, almost mechanical smile."You still ho

Calvin bent down to step out of the car, then locked the door behind him.Adriana was flabbergasted. She slapped the car door furiously.“Calvin! What are you doing? Open the door for me!”She took two steps back, then returned, rolling the window down just a crack to let in some air. The door remained locked.“Stubborn, huh? Good. Keep being stubborn,” she muttered.A wave of fear crept in. She knew Calvin was perfectly capable of doing something this absurd—locking her in the car overnight to make her reflect.“Calvin! Come back! Do you hear me? This is illegal imprisonment! Calvin!”His footsteps remained steady, quick, until he disappeared into the lift entrance.Adriana was so angry she collapsed weakly against the passenger seat, frustration twisting inside her.He always had a way of humiliating people.****Meanwhile, the lift shot straight to the top floor.
Billionaire's Famous Lawyer Ex-Wife Chapter 165 Adriana, do you love me?
After the burst of extreme speed, the hostility in Calvin’s body eased slightly, allowing him to finally look calmly at the pale woman in the passenger seat.(To verify if you love her or not will only takes one move.)(How do you feel when she’s with another man? If you’re angry, anxious, and pissed off, then, my friend, congratulations—I am afraid, you’ve been in love with her for a long time.)Suddenly the method given by Henry came into his mind.Calvin hadn’t wanted to try it, but instead of endlessly guessing and dwelling on it, he felt that wasn’t it better to seek a definitive answer?Thus, once again, he lost himself in thought and allowed Kevin to inquire about Adriana’s whereabouts that night.As he drove, his mind replayed the past. His six-year feud with Adriana had long since swallowed up anything resembling love. That so-called love—already on the verge of extinction—
Billionaire's Famous Lawyer Ex-Wife Chapter 164 My people
Cold fronts, as sharp as blades, cut through the thick night, and beneath the moonlight, the man’s eyes were colder than steel.His face was clear and emotionless, revealing neither joy nor anger. Yet, the plummeting temperature around him silently warned that he was in no good mood.Adriana was momentarily stunned.How did Calvin end up here? she thought.Was he one of the guests tonight? No, if the head of Grand Empire had been invited, the news would have spread like wildfire at the law firm.Was it just a coincidence?True, this place was home to many powerful tycoons, and the environment was beautiful. But in the middle of the night, Calvin hardly seemed like someone who would be out for a leisurely stroll.Before she could think further, a firm grip wrapped around her arm.With ease, Calvin pulled her out of Carson’s hold, yanking her back. Yet, it wasn’t just an act of pulling her away—his own bod
Billionaire's Famous Lawyer Ex-Wife Chapter 163 Lawyer Clarke, are we meeting by chance?
At the end of the awards ceremony, Adriana held a delicate crystal trophy in her hands. “Aidan, thank you!”Aidan, looking like an old father marrying off his daughter, was on the verge of tears, his emotions overflowing. “You… you! Why pretend to be clueless when you were so well prepared?”Adriana tilted her head and pouted. “I wanted to surprise you too!”Aidan let out a defeated sigh. “Fine, fine. Whatever you say. You always have an excuse.”Mona’s starry eyes practically sparkled with admiration. “Master, I now officially announce that you and Lawyer Clarke are tied for first place!”Adriana playfully tapped the bridge of Mona’s nose. “Didn’t you say that Mark wasn’t a good person, that he was too calculating?”Mona cupped her small hands around her cheeks, blinking mischievously. “Well… when it comes to his promotion, a
Billionaire's Famous Lawyer Ex-Wife Chapter 162 Do you like her?
Yes, she could call herself his lover, but in truth, she was nothing more than a convenient, long-term bed companion. She had never truly entered Carson’s heart.Carson had made this painfully clear early on: “If you’re with me, I’ll give you whatever you want. But don’t expect me to be single-minded, and don’t even think about marrying into the Collen family.”Despite this, Jessica wasn’t willing to give up. She believed that with enough time, effort, and deeper feelings, she could eventually win Carson over and become irreplaceable.She had been careful and patient, biding her time and putting in painstaking effort. She thought she was finally close to achieving her goal…Snap!Jessica dropped her wine glass in frustration, her hand trembling uncontrollably.“Adriana’s heart is too deep,” she muttered bitterly. “She acts like she’s above everything, like she doesn’t fight for anything. But in reality, she’s secretly taking it all!”Selena gritted her teeth and cast a sharp glance to
