Billionaire's Famous Lawyer Ex-Wife Chapter 152 What kind of man are you bringing into your home?
Sure enough, in less than ten minutes, Calvin was standing in her living room. His body carried the faint scent of alcohol, mixed with the chill of the outdoor night breeze, invading the cozy warmth of her space.He stood there like a storm ready to erupt, his piercing gaze making it seem as though he could devour her alive.Adriana, still munching on a shrimp ball, turned her head from the kitchen to glance at him. “What are you doing here? Coming to eat with me?”Calvin’s bandaged hand caught her attention. The bandages were neatly wrapped, done with care, and didn’t diminish his usual air of sophistication. However, his movements seemed somewhat restricted.He removed his suit jacket with one hand, struggled with the buttons, and then tossed it onto the sofa.Picking up a pair of chopsticks, he attempted to serve himself, but the task wasn’t going smoothly. He raised his eyes, and even through the steamy mist of the hot pot, his gaze remained as cold and sharp as ever.“Are you bli

The living room was strewn with furniture fittings, more cluttered than it had been an hour ago.The two stood in silence amidst the chaos, the room resembling a disaster zone after an earthquake.Adriana patted the dust off her hands. “You’re brilliant and make decisions that take my breath away. Not bad. Really good. I might even have to redefine the word genius.”Born stupid. he thought.Calvin dropped the knife, his gaze shifting to the disassembled shelf parts—boards, nails, glass panels, and a poorly folded instruction sheet buried at the bottom of the box.“IKEA? Oh, really? Of all places. Why didn’t you just buy something cheaper?”“You could’ve said that earlier. I still have Poundland on my phone,” Adriana shot back. “Next time, I’ll buy something cheap and come to you with a knife for help. Don’t argue.”Calvin groaned, rubbing his temple. A headache was brewing.Despite the mess, Adriana had to admit Calvin’s carpentry skills were impressive. With just one hand, he had eff

Finally, the bookcase was assembled and stood neatly under the lamp.A sense of accomplishment arose as Adriana rubbed her aching waist and said excitedly, “Calvin, you’re great.”Perhaps it was the atmosphere that made her forget she had been angry with him just over an hour ago.Calvin dropped the screwdriver and patted the side of the sturdy cabinet, completely unapologetic. “I know,” he replied with a smirk.Adriana snorted and laughed. For once, she didn’t instinctively dislike his cocky attitude. Instead, she sincerely gave him a thumbs up. But then her gaze fell on the bandage on his right hand, which was now oozing blood. “It looks like your wound has reopened,” she said with concern.Calvin looked more than a little disheveled. His once clean, white shirt was now wrinkled and smeared with oil stains. A few strands of hair had escaped his typically meticulous hairstyle, and his bandage was loose, with blood seeping through. His left hand, now bare, showed raw, reddened skin wh

She thought about Snow’s advice—to use him, please him, avoid falling in love or getting too attached—but her heart couldn’t draw such clear boundaries. This was a man she had loved deeply. Despite her resolve to let go completely, her feelings always seemed to pull her back. Certain moments still made her heart race, tempting her to make mistakes she knew she shouldn’t.She feared she would end up burning herself rather than merely playing with fire.She was just an ordinary person, not a Hollywood Nemesis with an unshakable core of toughness. Her mind raced, cycling through a thousand thoughts, but in the end, there was nothing she could say. Finally, she looked at him with a defeated expression and said, “Calvin, do you know what I hate most about myself? I hate that I still can’t bring myself to completely hate you.”****That night, neither of them could sleep.Calvin lay awake, staring at the ceiling, watching as the morning light crept into the room and the sun poured across th

"From whom?" Adriana asked."There’s a little card on it, but it doesn’t have a name or any contact information. So, Lawyer Clarke, see for yourself!"The receptionist's gossipy eyes could have written to the sixteenth episode of her Korean drama, but there wasn’t the faintest ripple in Adriana’s heart.The large bouquet contained roughly ninety-nine flowers—a standard number meant to convey a particular meaning. Yet it didn’t meet any of Adriana’s expectations.The card's generic stationery, provided by the florist, had only one line written on it: “The weather is nice.”Just four words.Outside the window, the sunlight spilled like shattered silver, illuminating the glossy leaves of the sycamore tree. The turquoise-blue sky was dotted with a few white clouds. It wasn’t yet summer, just the twilight of the spring season, with the daylight lingering sweetly. It really was, as the card said, a nice day.Adriana thought for a while, trying to figure out who could have sent the flowers.

After living there for only a month and gradually adding things one after another, Adriana now found herself leaving with just a suitcase and two punching bags stuffed to the brim. The light winds of parting tugged at her heart. “Let’s go,” she said calmly.Aidan felt sorry for her. “What’s wrong with the house? The type, the floor, the decoration—it didn’t cost two or three billion a month, right? Calvin’s been mooching off you for years. If there’s free wool to grab, why not grab it?”Adriana patted him on the shoulder, her voice steady. “Aidan, there’s no such thing as a free lunch.”Compared to the spacious luxury of the Green Wick apartment, the one-bedroom house seemed extraordinarily cramped and narrow. Aidan’s heart ached for her, and he couldn’t hold back his words. “Didn’t you take over Calvin’s case? Technically, you’re still his party B, aren’t you? Why move out?”Adriana carefully arranged her personal belongings and gestured for Aidan to help her set the quilt cover. The

Adriana was like his discarded, shoddy shoes—once thrown away, and now, just a passerby. So why was he so drawn to her again? Why did it hurt so much?Was he crazy?Just then, Calvin’s phone rang. He picked it up with a dark expression. “Speak!”On the other end, Henry, sounding cheerful as always, said, “Whoa, why so fiery? I didn’t provoke you. Still brooding over that thing from this morning?”“Cut the crap and bring a medical kit over here,” Calvin snapped.Henry’s voice shot up in mock alarm. “What? Self-harm? Did you cut your wrist?”“If you keep talking nonsense, believe it or not, I’ll come over and deal with you myself.”Henry wisely decided to stop teasing but couldn’t suppress a chuckle. “Alright, alright. Where are you? At home?”“Building eight, top floor!”Henry, always eager for excitement, arrived in no time, carrying a medical kit, a few bottles of beer, and some snacks. It was clear he wasn’t just here to help but also to enjoy the drama.As soon as he stepped in, he

Smiling slightly, Adriana said, “Is there something wrong?”She distanced herself from the drama in the office—if the fight didn’t concern her, she wouldn’t get involved. With matters unrelated to her, she chose indifference; when they did involve her, she handled them without argument. She believed in keeping her own integrity intact, knowing that saying less was often more effective.But not speaking didn’t mean she was unaware.Selena, known as “Jessica’s best friend,” approached her with an air of faux friendliness that felt more like a veiled provocation.“Tonight, Lawyer Clarke is the main character. I hear the reunion is just a pretense—the main event is presenting you with an award. Didn’t you earn half a million dollars for winning the Grand Empire lawsuit last time? That’s the biggest payout our firm has ever seen.”The sour tone in Selena’s voice barely masked her envy. Adriana replied calmly, “Then I must thank Lawyer Jessica for organizing such a grand occasion. I’m truly

“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
Billionaire's Famous Lawyer Ex-Wife Chapter 167 You were at fault, so was I
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
Billionaire's Famous Lawyer Ex-Wife Chapter 166 He was in love with Adriana
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
