It appeared that it had not been withdrawn.Adriana said truthfully, “I… It’s…”Before she could finish, Calvin interrupted her, “A man’s head. Can you just touch it casually?”It was originally just a virtual operation, not to mention that it had been a simple misclick on her part. But somehow, Calvin’s explanation made it seem more serious than it actually was.To prove that it was just a harmless joke within the small program, Adriana went back to the living room to grab her phone. She then returned to the doorway, blocking Calvin, who had just stepped one foot inside. “You probably haven’t played with it yet, right? You seem to have misunderstood that the ‘pat a pat’ function doesn’t necessarily mean patting someone’s head. You can use it freely.”She tapped on the feature and earnestly demonstrated it to him, as if forcibly proving he was making a big deal out of nothing. “This is Snow.”Then, she opened the emoji function and sent an icon of a bag full of money to herself. A mes

Last night, Calvin moved closer to her ear with a tingling touch. Could it have been a kiss? She didn’t notice anything unusual when she washed up in the morning, nothing behind her ears, just in the blind spot of her vision.“You’re looking at it all wrong. It could just be allergies.”Jenny’s workstation was also in the hall. Now and then, she didn’t listen to Selena’s discussion, but Aidan had strictly reminded everyone not to engage in gossip in the law firm. As the senior member of the firm and Aidan’s most capable assistant, she had always followed his rules. Today, seeing the evidence of the crime on Adriana's body, she only dared to ask a few questions.“Lawyer Clarke, don’t be embarrassed. Your boyfriend sent you a bouquet of flowers a few days ago. He seems to be quite attentive. You’re not living together, are you?”Adriana coughed, “Secretary Jenny, Director Aiden is looking for you.”A slender figure in black walked outside the door, but it wasn’t Aidan. The low, furious

Including Marshal, they all expected Adriana to lose control when she heard the news—or at the very least, for her expression to turn ugly. However, she simply smiled graciously, as if she didn’t take it seriously at all.“It seems that the president has a private jet, so why doesn’t he fly there directly? How is this related to our itinerary?”For an ordinary woman, shouldn’t her first reaction be to question the relationship between Calvin and Anna? Why was she focused on the means of transportation instead?Marshal’s gaze shifted before he chuckled. “Oh, that? We’re not sure about the president’s arrangements. Perhaps he has his own reasons.”Adriana didn’t press for details and maintained her composed smile. “That’s right. How could a subordinate possibly guess the leader’s intentions? Minister Marshal, let’s head to the meeting.”Marshal’s smile remained unreadable. “Okay, let’s go to the meeting.”Walking beside them, Anderson struggled to suppress his irritation. Was Adriana me

There was only one person in the office—Calvin—and no sign of Anna.One gone, and the next summoned. Who could beat Calvin in shamelessness?Adriana couldn't help but sneer. “President, what are your instructions?”Calvin had no idea what was going through her mind. He only noticed the impatience in her expression. Leaning back in his chair, he met her gaze with a distant look. “Lawyer Clarke, are you in a bad mood?”Adriana remained standing across from him, unwilling to sit. The less time she spent here, the better. “Personal emotions shouldn’t interfere with work. I remember your reminder well. President, you might as well get straight to the point.”Calvin frowned slightly, noticing the exhaustion beneath her eyes. His tone was neutral as he spoke. “Did my words from yesterday push you to burn the midnight oil, striving for excellence? Geniuses aren’t made overnight.”Adriana couldn’t tell what he meant—was it concern, mockery, or a lecture?“There’s a lot of information in the ca

Calvin’s private jet has direct flights to London, so why is he taking a commercial flight?Seeing him appear across the cabin—even in the luxurious interior of first class—Adriana still found it incredulous. “I remember you never traveled on a civilian flight before.”Do you want me to repeat Calvin’s original words?'(I don’t have time to check in, and I’m not in the mood to fight for a mouthful of oxygen with a bunch of good and bad people crammed into a confined space.)Calvin crossed one leg over the other, his entire demeanor effortlessly blending with the seat, exuding just the right amount of elegance. “Charlie Munger never took private planes for work travel. First, because big planes are safer. Second, because you meet all kinds of people and get a better understanding of social dynamics.”Heh! Whether horizontally or vertically, it’s still just him being him.Adrian

For the rest of the ten-hour long-haul flight, Calvin sat next to Anna. The two of them either spoke in hushed voices, occasionally writing and sketching on documents, or exchanged light smiles.Even during meals, they continued chatting, creating an atmosphere of perfect harmony.Their voices were so low that Adriana couldn’t make out what they were discussing. She tried to focus on her papers, determined not to let irrelevant thoughts distract her.Eventually, she drifted off to sleep, still clutching her documents. When she woke, the cabin was unusually quiet. Most passengers were asleep, the reading lights dimmed by the flight attendants, leaving only a soft, hazy glow in the first-class section.It was then that she noticed Anna leaning against the back of her chair, her head tilted slightly toward Calvin. At first glance, it almost looked as if they were nestled together, sleeping.The seats were adjusted to the perfect recline for rest

Adriana was confused.Adriana, what?In those six years, it was the first time she had heard Calvin not call her by her full name or surname. His tone, alluring and suggestive, was enough to make anyone's heart waver.It was just a pity that the occasion was wrong, the purpose impure, and there was no tenderness or love—only endless disgust.Was he even a man?Soon to be married to someone else, yet here he was, treating her as if she were nothing but a past amusement. From time to time, he would tease her when he was in a good mood—offering a fleeting moment of sweetness, only to discard her without a second thought.He treated her as if she had no dignity, no pride.Secretly gritting her teeth and taking a shallow breath, Adriana turned her head to look at Calvin, a flawless smile gracing her lips—one worthy of an award-winning actress."Mr. Calvin, haven’t I told you before? Our relationship is now as

Anna slowly stretched out her hand, wanting to grab that broad, slender hand. "Falling in love is a matter between two people, but marriage involves two families—especially a prestigious family like the Walkers. Without enough strength to stand shoulder to shoulder with you, sooner or later, one has to leave. Adriana will never enter the Walker family in this lifetime. Grandpa specifically told me that as long as he lives, she will never step foot inside, not even half a step."This was her bottom line, and because of it, she was never afraid of Adriana dangling in front of Calvin’s eyes.Calvin withdrew his hand, avoiding her touch. "And what makes you think you have what it takes to enter the Walker family?"Anna's expression froze in horror.She had thought that as long as her father and the Walker family reached an agreement, nothing could change the marriage. But she had underestimated Calvin’s iron will. Would he really go against

Before Adriana entered the conference room, she overheard Anderson, who was sitting near the door, say, "I have heard that the Blake family has been interacting with George very frequently these days, and he has even loosely offered a lot of facilities to the Phantom Group."Over the past two days, Adriana had also picked up some inside information indirectly.Alex messaged her from time to time, chatting about random things and occasionally asking if she had time to go out for a walk. In the process, he would inadvertently mention Anna and Calvin:"Calvin is with Anna. How could he have time to hang out with me? If you're not busy, why don't we meet in Manchester?""Calvin and Anna make a great couple. They’re exactly what people mean when they talk about a talented man and a beautiful woman together.""So boring—Calvin is with Anna again. Oh, and by the way, Anna’s parents are in London. Now I can’t even see Calvin’s

Adriana calmly stepped out of the car and said, “Hard work.” to Lewis before walking into the hotel lobby.Lewis wasn’t sure what was wrong with her.She had been silent and withdrawn ever since watching the man they had been following. On the way back, she hadn’t said a single word.Having never been in love, Lewis didn’t understand a woman’s heart and wasn’t sure if Adriana’s reaction counted as heartbreak.Adriana moved like a ghost through the elevator exit, pulled out her room card, and swiped it.“Lawyer Clarke…”Miley had been waiting for her for a long time. The moment she heard movement next door, she called out just in time.Adriana’s expression remained unreadable, but the red in her eyes betrayed her exhaustion. “What’s wrong?”Miley had been about to say something, but upon seeing Adriana’s face, she swallowed her words
Billionaire's Famous Lawyer Ex-Wife Chapter 250 Deep regret and self-reproach
Miles away in New York City, Calvin sat in his office. In front of him, a high-definition computer screen displayed a live video feed from Manchester.The brightest spot in the frame was Henry’s villa, where a silent orgy was unfolding.Across the road, by the woods, Adriana sat on the ground, trembling, curled into herself like a fragile rag doll that might break at the slightest touch.Calvin’s heart clenched, a sharp pain tearing through him, so deep it left him numb.“Adriana, listen to me.”Adriana slowly lifted her head, her gaze fixed on the villa.“Mr. Calvin, we have only an employment relationship,” she said, her voice distant. “So please, call me Lawyer Clarke.”She stared straight into the camera, as if forcing her cold, pained eyes into Calvin’s field of vision, making sure he saw the bitterness, the accusation in them.Calvin had never felt such deep regret and self-reproach.How had he even thought of letting Adriana take this case in the first place?Back then, she had
Billionaire's Famous Lawyer Ex-Wife Chapter 249 You knew all along, didn’t you?
The man was holding a glass of red wine, his dark hair standing out.He had his back to the window and was talking to someone, looking subdued yet at ease.“Bring me the picture you take.”Lewis flipped through a few photos, some close-ups and some taken from afar. “Here.”Adriana held the binoculars and focused her gaze on the photo. In terms of body type and overall presence, the two were exactly the same person.When she looked at the photo alone, Adriana hadn’t felt anything off, but now, facing the three-dimensional, living person, an overwhelming wave of oppression crashed over her. It was as if an invisible hand was squeezing her throat, suffocating her.She was stunned for half a second before speaking. “Are you sure it’s him?”Lewis didn’t understand the dazed look in her eyes and answered carefully, “These past few days, while I was tracking him, this was the only person Henry met with mysteriously. Every time they met, they were extra cautious and chose a highly secretive l
Billionaire's Famous Lawyer Ex-Wife Chapter 248 Wanted to look her more.
Calvin smiled but didn’t laugh. “It was a matter of expediency. Miss Clarke, you said so yourself. What? Were you planning to lecture me about the law in that moment? Sue me for indecent assault?” He leaned back slightly, his tone casual. “Go ahead. I’ll wait for your lawyer’s letter.”Adriana was furious, shooting him a vicious glare.Calvin glanced at the time. He had to leave for London soon, and Karl’s plane was scheduled to arrive at the airport in a few hours. “Consider it a medical expense. I didn’t do anything else. You didn’t lose out.”Adriana’s hands trembled as she pressed her fingers to her temples. She was seriously afraid she wouldn’t be able to resist punching Calvin’s handsome face.“When it comes to being a shameless rogue, you’re at a textbook level,” she snapped. “If you ever wrote a book called How to Train a Hooligan, it would be a bestseller worldwide.”Calvin smirked. “How can an exclusive skill like mine be outsourced?”Adriana’s mouth twitched. She had alread
Billionaire's Famous Lawyer Ex-Wife Chapter 247 Hot breath
Tonight, Adriana walked slowly to the bedroom by herself without asking Calvin for help, but as she lay on the bed, she felt immense pressure and shame.Calvin went to take a bath. He would certainly see the dirty clothes inside. And his question—if someone had come and she said no—was no different from saying, No, I am wearing nothing inside.As a divorced woman, what hadn’t she experienced? What hadn’t she seen?She shouldn’t have been shy, shouldn’t have acted with such delicate posturing, but the word ex-husband was there, easily breaking down her defenses.Adriana pulled the covers up, wrapping herself tightly from head to toe.Not long after, a freshly washed Calvin walked in. He blow-dried his hair, and his body radiated heat from the bath, raising the temperature of the room.Adriana pretended to be asleep, but her toes were already tense, curling one by one, her arches about to straighten out.Last night, she had been so exhausted and hurt that she slept soundly until morning
Billionaire's Famous Lawyer Ex-Wife Chapter 246 Why are you here?
Whether Marshal was being an alarmist or simply preparing for the worst, Calvin considered his words carefully. But deep down, he knew Adriana was not that kind of person.Was she really lying in wait, plotting to bring down Grand Empire to avenge her family and Clarke Group?That soft, stubborn woman—was she really capable of such a grand scheme?Calvin shook his head. No. Adriana wouldn’t do that.“Do your job. The rest is out of your hands.”Marshal knew better than to push any further. He had already said enough to warn his boss without overstepping. “Understood, President. I will cooperate with Lawyer Clarke on the lawsuit.”After hanging up the phone, Calvin found himself unable to settle. Marshal’s words—scandal and debt—kept echoing in his mind.At first, when he had finally cut ties with that “scheming woman,” he had felt an overwhelming sense of relief. But now, when he recalled her reddened eyes and unsteady footsteps as she left his office that day, something within him st

The attending physician nodded. “Mr. Calvin, the patient has awakened. Would you like to see her?”Calvin gave a slight nod and stepped forward.In the ICU, Anna slowly opened her eyes. Blood loss had left her face pale, her lips devoid of color. Her pupils were unfocused at first, taking a long moment to adjust. When she finally saw the group of doctors in white coats standing beside a familiar figure, the pain in her body seemed to momentarily fade. A faint smile appeared on her lips.“Calvin…”Before she could say more, Calvin interrupted her. “The doctor said you’re still weak and shouldn’t exert yourself. If you have something to say, save it for later.”Anna’s eyes welled up with tears, touched by his concern.To be able to trade an injury for Calvin’s care and affection—it was worth it.“Alright, I’ll do as you say.”She was obedient, soft, like a submissive woman in the throes of deep love.Calvin frowned slightly before turning to speak with the doctor.The doctor explained A
Billionaire's Famous Lawyer Ex-Wife Chapter 244 True love
Before the Blake family arrived in London, Calvin had someone watch Anna closely at the hospital and instructed them to contact the doctor immediately if there was any change in her condition.Even the usually straightforward Alex sensed his resistance this time. After dinner, he considered heading to the hospital’s VIP room. Knocking on the door, he called out, “Calvin?”Calvin, reading a document, glanced slightly toward the door. “Something wrong?”Alex gently closed the door, not daring to get too close. He sat on the farthest couch, yet even from there, he could still feel the icy air surrounding Calvin. “Anna hasn’t woken up yet. You’re worried about her, aren’t you?”Calvin shot him an icy look.It clearly meant: Which one of your eyes saw me worrying?“And?”Alex continued, “Anna likes you a lot and cares about your feelings. She almost died trying to save you today. Aren’t you two engaged? She’s your fiancée, right? That means she truly loves you.”What Alex called true love,
