Billionaire's Famous Lawyer Ex-Wife Chapter 181 I will take care of it
Seeing Calvin and Carson angrily facing each other, it seemed like they were about to start fighting again. Adriana put down what she was holding and sat down with a stern face.“You two can bandage each other up. Since you're both so capable of fighting, you can handle the aftermath just as well.”“No way.”“Never happening.”Surprisingly, they were at least consistent on this point.“Well then, since neither of you wants to do it, bear with it. After this, go home — to whoever you like.”Not wanting to get entangled with either of them any further, Adriana just wanted to leave with a clean slate.Carson tugged at her wrist, his red, swollen face filled with helplessness. “You’re not really going to leave, are you?”Adriana looked down at his hand, then forced him to let go. “I made myself very clear already. No matter what you do, I won’t appreciate it. Whether I’m desperate, heartless, or however you want to see me — it doesn’t matter. You can think of me as a scummy girl if you wa

The next day, Adriana packed her things and left for work.When she went downstairs, she saw a familiar car.The neighbourhood she rented in was only mid-range to high-end, and it was rare to see such a luxurious car.The high-profile Aston Martin in front of her certainly didn’t fit in with the overall atmosphere.Adriana instinctively knew there was a familiar face inside, so she turned around to leave.Drip!The horn blared, the driver’s window rolled down, and a head peeked out.“I’ve seen it all. Where are you planning to hide?”Adriana knew dodging was pointless, so she switched to a standard, polite smile — the kind an employee would show when greeting their superior.“Deputy Director Carson showing up at his subordinate’s doorstep first thing in the morning — that can’t be a coincidence, right?”The injury on Carson’s face, after a night of settling in, looked even worse. The swelling had intensified, and the bruise had deepened in color. His left eye, the one that had taken t

Adriana sat in her office chair with her eyes closed.She seemed to be having a nightmare. Her snow-white face was creased with frowns, and cold sweat trickled down her temples."No... Don't take my brother away... He's not guilty...""Mom, Dad, I'm sorry, it was my fault... Please forgive me..."Adriana mumbled, her voice barely audible."Mom..."Suddenly, she cried out, jerking awake. Her breathing was uneven as she opened her eyes.'That nightmare again... No matter how much I try to run from my past, it seems the past isn't going to leave me alone!' she thought.Adriana poured herself a glass of water when suddenly, someone knocked at the door.Knock! Knock! Knock!"Come in!" she called out.The door to her office opened, and Mona, Adriana's assistant, walked in holding some files. Mona looked at Adriana's pale face and asked with concern, "Ma'am, are you alright? You look pale!"Adriana took a sip of water to calm herself and replied, "Don't worry, I'm fine. I just didn't sleep w

Adriana stared at him for a long time, but no words came out. It had been three years since she last saw him, yet he hadn't changed a bit. He was still as handsome as ever."Adriana, don't tell me you've fallen in love with me again?" Calvin's low, deep voice broke the silence.Adriana snapped out of her daze. As her eyes met his, she saw traces of disgust and mockery in them.She clenched her fists and replied, "I'm not blind anymore."With that, she turned to leave. But before she could take a step, Calvin spoke again."Where are you going?"Adriana paused but didn't turn around. "I don't think it has anything to do with you, Sir," she said coldly."Of course, it has everything to do with me," he replied, a smug smile forming on his lips.Adriana's heart skipped a beat. "What do you mean?" she asked, a bad feeling creeping over her."Oh, I forgot to introduce myself. I'm the client you're waiting for, Calvin Walker," Calvin said, pulling out a chair and sitting down.Adriana froze.

“YOU ARE THE ONE who betrayed our marriage.”The biting reproach brought back the painful memories, Adriana had desperately tried to forgot, which rushed back to her mind like a flood.(FLASHBACK)Three years earlier, Adriana had been the daughter of the Clarke family and the wife of the wealthiest man in the country, Calvin Walker, CEO of Grand Empire. People had envied her for having him as her husband, but Adriana was the only one who truly knew the reality of their relationship.Despite knowing that Calvin didn’t love her, she had married him, believing that as long as she loved him, he would eventually fall in love with her.But Adriana’s belief had been nothing more than wishful thinking. In their three years of marriage, the number of times she had seen him could be counted on one hand.Although Calvin treated her coldly, Adriana, like a stubborn fool, had tried to warm his heart.Then, that rainy night changed everything.Adriana opened her eyes and felt her head spinning. She

Seeing Adriana squatting down like this, Calvin couldn't help but frown. He thought that she was just pretending to be weak to gain his sympathy."Adriana, you don't have to pretend in front of me, I know you well! Just get the hell out of here! I can't stand your hypocrisy. It made me feel disgusted!" Calvin said coldly.Hearing his words, Adriana felt as if someone had stabbed a knife in her heart. She wanted to stand up and leave, but the weight of those memories was too much for her to bear.Adriana felt that as if her legs got weak, and all her energy of her body had been drained out. No matter how hard she tried to stand up, she couldn't."Calvin?"Just then a sweet woman's voice came, breaking the tension.Adriana looked up, only to see a beautiful woman walking towards them.The woman was wearing a white shirt and black skirt, with delicate, fair skin. Her long black hair cascaded down her back, making her look even more beautiful."Rose! What are you doing here?" Calvin asked

Adriana had just got into the car, took a few deep breaths to calm herself down, and the phone in her bag rang –Beep, beep, beep…Adrianalooked at her phone. It was a call from her assistant, Mona."Hello?" she answered the phone."Ma'am, where are you? It's already one o'clock, why haven't you arrived at the court yet?"Only then did Adriana remember that today was the final hearing of the White family case in court. Because of Calvin, she almost forgot about it."Mona, prepare all the documents related to the case and wait there for me. I will be there in twenty minutes," she said.The case wasn't very complicated. It was an appeal case on behalf of a victim of school violence.By the time the trial ended, it was already five o'clock.The defense lawyer had tried to use the minor protection law to help his client get off, but Adriana had presented twenty cases to testify. As a result, the judge sentenced the defendant to ten years in prison and one year of probation.Adriana was ab

Early the next morning, hospital, office.Henry Charles, Calvin's private doctor and longtime friend, examined the wound on Calvin's thigh with a dark expression. "Calvin, you can't leave today too. The injury on your thigh needs proper care. If it isn't treated correctly, it'll leave a scar."Calvin shrugged indifferently. "It's on my thigh. Who's going to see it?""Your wife! The one lying on the 14th floor who just out of danger," Henry retorted sharply.Calvin, who had been buttoning his shirt, paused for a moment. His expression hardened. "Stop talking nonsense. We've been divorced for a long time."Henry sighed, pinching the bridge of his nose. Their circle of friends and family was well aware of Calvin and Adriana's story, from its beginnings to its bitter end."Is that so? Then why did you risk your life to charge into the explosion site yesterday? I saw the surveillance footage. You screamed like a desperate Romeo losing his Juliet."When the explosion happened, most onlooker

Calvin spoke out in shock. Adriana was afraid he would say something else, so she hurriedly advised, “Calvin, let’s just come together and part peacefully. At least let’s leave each other with some dignity. Let’s not make a mess of things until there’s nothing left.”There was a warning in her eyes, and her stance made it clear she was drawing a line with him.Calvin cooperated by lowering his head slightly, and likewise lowered his voice, whispering, “Do you like that playboy so much? Do you even know what kind of person Carson really is?”Adriana glanced at Carson out of the corner of her eye. He appeared calm and composed, not at all embarrassed by being left out, standing there like a clear stream.“What kind of person he is — time will tell,” she replied. “I’ll also keep my eyes wide open to see it for myself. Instead of listening to your version, I’d rather experience it firsthand.”Calvin was thoroughly exasperated by her. “It seems you’re determined to go against me.”“Calvin,

New York is known as one of the most beautiful cities in the country and has been ranked as a highly livable place for several years in a row. Facing the sea and stretching northward, its late spring and early summer evenings are filled with a gentle breeze and bustling traffic—a perfect blend of vibrant life and the relentless struggles of young dreamers.Strolling through the college campus, where students gathered in groups, one could see couples walking arm in arm, hear playful bickering, and catch fleeting glimpses of youthful romance. It was enough to rekindle even the most faded sparks of sentiment.Carson pulled a cigarette case and lighter from his trouser pocket, but just as he was about to light one, he hesitated and put them back. “There’s an observation deck nearby. Want to check it out?”Adriana refused without hesitation. She wasn’t here for a date. Why would she follow the same route as young lovers?“I’m not going.”Carson glanced at a couple embracing in front of the

Looking at the smelly rice noodles bubbling on the table, Adriana wrinkled her eyebrows into two tight knots. “This is refreshing?”Carson, his long fingers stirring the noodles and auxiliary ingredients in the large bowl, looked completely at ease—clearly, he had eaten this many times before. “These rice noodles are made from the shop owner’s authentic recipe. Only his family knows it. Have a try!”Adriana’s expression darkened as she pushed her bowl away. “Deputy Director Carson, you should eat more.”She found it hard to believe that someone like Carson, born with a silver spoon in his mouth, would be good at this.Actually, it was more than just being grounded—it was practically underground.Carson noticed her reluctance and frowned. “Didn’t you used to love this?”Adriana hesitated. “Before? How do you know what I used to eat?”Had their paths ever crossed? Searching her memory, Adriana couldn’t recall.Carson smirked mysteriously. “Eat three bites, and I’ll tell you.”Back in co

Adriana ignored the message alert and pretended not to see it.At the dinner table, Anderson both explicitly and implicitly mentioned that Calvin’s plan for the night was to attend Karl’s birthday party. He even emphasized, “Our president—when has he ever given anyone such an honor? He rarely attends private parties in a year.”The implication was clear: the relationship between the Walker family and the Blake family was extraordinary.His remark was directed at Adriana, who simply smiled.Anderson might have intended to provoke her, but her lack of response left him disinterested, and he didn’t bring it up again.A house call and a banquet—it seemed that things between Anna and Calvin were progressing well.Pretty good.Drip!The sound of a car horn suddenly interrupted her thoughts. Adriana turned toward the road, and her expression darkened instantly.Carson rolled down the window and leaned out, his elbow resting on the window frame as he smiled at her. “What a coincidence!”At tw

Calvin said, “Whether we are falling out or not, Chairman Blake, there’s no need for you to know too much. I didn’t see Albert.”No one could force a word out of him if he didn’t want to speak.Karl, understanding Calvin’s style, knew better than to press the matter. Truth be told, there was no need to ask—Carson had likely crossed a line that Calvin, who couldn’t tolerate even a speck of sand in his eyes, found unforgivable. Perhaps even Albert himself was not worth seeing in Calvin’s view.This is tricky.Karl kept a smile on his face and said, “Carson—that boy lacks determination. Albert has mentioned many times that… well, never mind. Even raising his own son hasn’t been easy for him. It’s clear that mistakes are inevitable in other areas as well. But let’s not dwell on it.”Despite his lighthearted tone, Karl was struggling internally.With his current cash flow issues, he had planned for Albert to meet Calvin tonight, hoping to reinforce his confidence and secure financial suppo

In the evening, the Grand Empire lawyers dined at Savory Spice Heaven.Adriana kept her thoughts to herself—after all, her last traumatic experience had taken place here, and revisiting the same place felt like an emotional wipeout.As they entered the private dining room, Marshal smiled and said, “Lawyer Clarke, this way, please.”Marshal, holding the highest position, rightfully should have taken the seat across from the door. However, he reached out to invite Adriana instead, even offering her the most honorable chair.Wasn’t that cynicism?Adriana politely declined, took a seat on the left side, and pulled out a chair. “Minister Marshal, you are too polite. You are the host, and I am the guest. Where is the reasoning in competing with the host for a seat?”Lawyer Miller smiled. “Lawyer Clarke, with your relationship with the president, why be so modest? Not to mention just a single seat—this entire restaurant must look up to you!”Adriana didn’t show even a hint of anger. She simp

Carson wasn’t blind, nor was he stupid. The lingering redness at the corner of Adriana’s mouth wasn’t from accidentally scraping it while drinking water.“You left too quickly at lunch. I hadn’t finished what I was saying. Busy now?” he asked.Adriana replied calmly, “Just finished work. I was about to head down.”Carson nodded, finally turning his attention to Calvin, who was practically radiating hostility. “Calvin, I’ll be taking my person with me. I wouldn’t want to disturb your office. See you later.”Calvin’s fingers casually brushed over the corner of his mouth. Then, as if savoring the moment, he deliberately glanced at the faint traces left on Adriana’s lips—his traces.“Miss Clarke, seven o’clock—don’t be late.”Adriana’s head buzzed for a moment. Can’t you phrase it more clearly? Now it sounded like they had some private rendezvous.She quickly corrected him. “Of course, Mr. Calvin. The Grand Empire Legal Department is full of industry elites. I’ll be sure to learn from the
