Chapter 322 Dating Again

Author: Cora Smith
It appeared that Lucian, who had once been tight-lipped, had found his voice. He jumped at every opportunity to make amends for his past.

Calista had taken notice of Lucian's transformation and his sincere efforts during this time.

Therefore, she had agreed to be intimate with him last night as a means of reciprocation, wanting to avoid feeling indebted to him. Lucian didn't desire material possessions and seemed content with his life.

His only regret appeared to be his performance in bed, prompting Calista to address his sexual issues impulsively.

Last night, Calista had already let her suggestion slip out of her mouth before she had fully regained her senses. What followed allowed no room for second thoughts or regrets.

Yet, Calista knew she wouldn't have extended such an offer to anyone else.

Lucian occupied a special place in her heart. She couldn't quite discern whether this distinction stemmed from affection, his status as her first love and ex-husband, or the regrettable w

    Calista caught a whiff of the fresh pine scent – it was Paul. She froze for a moment and quickly pulled away from his embrace."Thank you. I think I stumbled over something just now."She lowered her head to examine the perfectly smooth ground. There was nothing there. What had she tripped over?Paul noticed her staring at the ground and asked, "Is everything okay?"Calista shook her head and replied, "It's nothing. Let's keep going."Perhaps she had simply been mistaken. Meanwhile, Lucian's gaze stayed fixed on Calista throughout the entire sequence of events from the passenger seat.Despite their considerable distance, Lucian's focus remained unwaveringly set on Calista.Though he couldn't discern the precise cause of Calista's stumble, the very notion that she had tripped on such a level surface left him contemplating whether Paul might have orchestrated it.Lucian silently cursed Paul, regarding him as a cunning man. Despite having witnessed Calista arrive with Lucian's car

    Lucian comfortably sat in the booth next to Calista, positioned near the window with two couches facing each other.Paul, who had trailed Lucian into the restaurant, shot him an irritated look before settling in beside Agnes."Mrs. Baker."Lucian greeted Agnes with courtesy. Agnes smiled and stood up, heading for the exit."Some friends invited me for a hangout, and I'll pass on joining you guys today. So, I'll need to excuse myself. You guys go ahead and enjoy."She rubbed her stomach and chuckled, "As you get older, digestion becomes a bit of a challenge. Beef steak and such are more suitable for you young folks."With Agnes gone, the atmosphere at the table grew tense, leaving only the three of them. Lucian leaned closer to Calista, his expression filled with disgust as his gaze fell upon the dishes before him.He remarked, "I'm not a fan of Palaiseau cuisine. Care to join me for some Calaiselle cuisine?"Calista, her stomach rumbling from hunger since she had only had a sma

    Lucian's expression turned completely grim at this point."Last night was supposed to be your safe period, and I didn't finish much inside," he admitted.Lucian didn't allow himself to become too confident, mindful of his lack of experience and three years of abstinence.He found it challenging to restrain himself in the heat of the moment and ejaculated. Calista shot him an exasperated look."A safe period is never a hundred percent guarantee. Do you even get that?"Lucian huffed."I'm not exactly an expert on women's stuff, unlike someone.""Who are you directing your sarcasm at? Paul held a different view. He frequently praises you, and yet you respond with sarcasm."Lucian was surprised. Had Paul complimented him? It was unusual, as rival encounters typically sparked jealousy, not praise."What did he say about me?" Lucian inquired."He said you're good-looking and, well, popular with women ..." Calista muttered."I'm being generous by befriending him. He can't even be h

    As Calista arrived at the museum the next day, a colleague approached her urgently."Claude, have you heard the news? Madam White has confessed. They say she's going to be sentenced next month.""Amelia confessed?"Calista had orchestrated the dramatic incident at the manor in front of Hugo. With Amelia's confession, it appeared that the Jacquez family prioritized their interests above all else."What do you reckon Madam White was aiming for? She was nearing retirement. Yet now, her reputation and career are in ruins," her colleague commented.Calista smiled faintly and replied, "Who knows? Maybe people just stop giving a damn about many things as they get older."Amelia's confession didn't have a significant impact on Calista. What did it signify when Vivian could stir up so much chaos yet still escape it? However, Calista didn't expect Hugo to come looking for her."Ms. Everhart, do you have a moment to talk?" Hugo asked.He was dressed in a relaxed manner but radiated an air

    Out of nowhere, a black sedan sped directly toward Calista. Attention fixed on her phone call, Calista had no chance to react.The car approached so rapidly that debris from the collision grazed her skin. Escape was impossible. Their eyes locked through the windshield as screams and the loud impact filled the air.All other sounds faded away at that moment, leaving only the image of the unfamiliar, manic face growing more significant before Calista.Abruptly, she felt a powerful force from behind, causing her to stumble forward, tripping over debris and tumbling on the ground.Bang!The car collided with an object, and Calista was thrown to the ground, feeling pain in her elbows and knees.Oddly, the physical discomfort helped her snap out of the fear and shock she had just experienced. As she lay on the ground, the noises around her began to make sense.People were shouting, "Call 911 immediately! Look at all that blood. It doesn't look like the chances of survival are high."

    What a heartwarming display of friendship! Genuine bonds like this were touching in a world where superficiality often overshadowed human connections.Reporters promptly pointed their microphones and cameras in Calista's direction."Ms. Everhart, Ms. Jacquez put her safety on the line to rescue you during that crucial moment. How does that make you feel?" one reporter inquired.Vivian locked eyes with Calista and raised an eyebrow ever so slightly, signaling that she was playing a role intentionally.She didn't mind letting Calista in on her plan. She almost wished Calista would lose her composure in public, revealing her ingratitude to the world.But even if Calista didn't react that way, it didn't matter to Vivian. Her motive for orchestrating this incident wasn't solely to tarnish Calista's reputation. Calista responded with a gracious smile."I'm genuinely touched, deeply moved indeed. Vivian and I have only recently become acquainted. Aside from work, we haven't had many int

    Vivian was recording Calista under the blanket with her phone. She had discreetly positioned her phone earlier, tucking most of the device beneath the blanket and exposing only the camera lens.Moreover, she had covered the phone with a white decorative case to conceal it. Calista paused the recording and casually wiped some blood stains from Vivian's clothes with her fingers."Are you using public pressure to pressure me into allowing you to stay in Capeton, Ms. Jacquez? You don't need to resort to such tactics. If you want to stay, just stay. Capeton isn't mine, and I can't exactly evict you, can I?"Vivian stayed quiet, deep in thought about the circumstances. Hugo had a soft spot for Vivian, and if it weren't for Lucian's reputation, he wouldn't have been so insistent on sending her back to Apthon.Vivian's injury and her selfless act to rescue Calista could potentially garner public support, which might persuade Hugo to have a change of heart.However, despite achieving her g

    In that split second, Vivian quickly averted her gaze as if repulsed by him when their eyes met."If you don't do as I've told you, don't bother to show up in front of me again."She absently touched the stiff cast on her leg, the anesthesia still numbing the pain. A trace of determination flickered in Vivian's eyes as she clutched the bedsheet tightly.With a broken leg, she decided to make the most of her situation. The man remained tight-lipped, lowered his gaze, and fixed on her emotionlessly. "Do you want to marry him?" he asked."Yes, I do. Or would you rather I marry you? Get out of here right now, or I won't think twice about letting my father know what you've been up to behind his back."On the other hand, Calista was hanging out in Yara's shop."Is Vivian completely out of her mind? You weren't the one responsible for her injury. What's with her attitude? Just because she saved you, does that mean you must play nursemaid in the hospital, doing all her chores?" Yara ex

    Fabian said, "Mr. Ackerman was taken away by the Office of Inspector General this morning. Madam Cameron and the Bark family are reportedly the ones responsible."The Carter Group hadn't broken any laws, nor had they been financially entangled with the Ackermans for over a decade. Still, the long-standing ties between the two families ran deep. If Victor Ackerman had skeletons in his closet, Cade would have a hard time avoiding the fallout.Cade propped his hand against his cheek. "What about my wife?""Madam Cameron…" Fabian had to steel himself to answer Cade. "Madam Cameron left the country. She applied for a long-term visa."Even with reporters hounding him, that sentence rang loud and clear in Cade's ears.A long silence stretched before he let out a quiet, bitter laugh.He had never realized how much Cameron had orchestrated behind his back. The Ackermans or the media could trip him up for now, but her betrayal cut deeper. Every move had been calculated.And the most absur

    Cade crossed the room as Cameron, already seated, leaned her cheek against her hand, skimming the menu. "Want a drink?" she asked casually.His heart skipped a beat.Cameron's appearance radiated deliberate perfection. From her flawlessly styled hair and expertly applied makeup to her impeccable outfit and carefully chosen accessories, every detail was considered. Even her expensive "Allure" perfume hinted at a desire to captivate.A private dining room meant for couples with only spouses in each other's company…Given the setup, sharing a drink seemed like an implicit invitation.Cade pressed his lips into a line, trying to ignore the rising curve of a smile. "Sure," he replied, his tone deceptively even. "We'll start with two bottles of Magnolia's Pulpit," Cameron said.Cade choked on his water, coughing as he asked, "Seriously?"Who would start a date with such a strong distilled spirit? With two bottles, no less.Cameron propped up her chin and raised an eyebrow. "Is that

    Cameron stared at her screen, where Gale had just sent a single word. "Ready." Her lips curled up involuntarily.Cade noticed the smile. He didn't know who she was messaging, but it irritated him for some reason. After a long pause, he exhaled slowly and asked, "What if the Ackermans refuse to settle?"Cameron didn't bother to answer. She knew Violet and Victor would soon be in hot water, so she hadn't considered the aftermath. However, to Cade, her silence only confirmed his assumptions—she was reckless, unprepared, and acting purely on emotion. He clenched his jaw and finally stopped holding his breath. Then, suddenly, he pulled the car over with a sharp twist of the wheel. "Did you think it through before turning yourself in? What if the psych evaluation comes back clean, and the Ackermans insist on pressing charges? What then? You hurt Mirabelle badly. You think you'll have it easy in prison with the way they dote on her?" In contrast to Cade's exasperation, Cameron remaine

    With Cade covering Cameron's mouth, there was no chance for her pointed words to offend anyone in the room. His palm was cool to the touch. It was a sensation she disliked. So, she couldn't help but tilt her head.When Cade noticed her movements, he gently stroked her cheek as if he were calming a child who was throwing a tantrum.Victor spent years in a position of authority, giving him an air of unspoken authority. His gaze hardened, and his lips pressed into a firm line as he watched Cade. "Cade, don't jeopardize the long-standing relationship between our families over a woman.""If that's how you see it." Cade glanced at the door. "Aren't you doing the same for a woman?"Victor snorted contemptuously. "How can a cheap girl who was merely adopted be worth anything compared to Mirabelle?""How is my daughter, a Yorksworth, worth any less than yours?" Blaire stood at the doorway as she took in the occupants of the home with her sharp gaze. She had been feeling restless ever sin

    Mirabelle frowned. "Excuse me?"As soon as she finished speaking, Cameron walked up to her, grabbed her by her hair, and forcefully bent her over.Cameron held up the guest list Monica had sent her and shoved it in Mirabelle's face. "Call them. Tell them to be there by 3:00 p.m., or else…"She tightened her grip threateningly. "You can kiss this head of hair goodbye."Mirabelle pressed down on her scalp where it had been pulled, her voice distorted with pain when she spoke."Let go, Cameron! Are you out of your mind?""Didn't I tell you not to involve anyone else in our feud?""Can't take it anymore?"Mirabelle endured the pain of turning her head to flash a disdainful sneer at Cameron."This is just the appetizer. If you go against me, you'll eventually crawl out of Capeton with your tail between your legs. I'll call your business partner right now and pin the catastrophic failure of this event on you…"Seeing Mirabelle's condescending expression brought Cameron back to the

    The kiss lifted the dark cloud that hung over Cade's mood over the past few days.The next day, as Fabian brought in documents for him to sign, Cade asked, "When is Cameron's show?"Fabian was taken aback for a split second but quickly replied. Fortunately, he was well-prepared and kept track of Cameron's events for the year in advance."Has the invitation been delivered?"Fabian swallowed, almost wanting to laugh to mock Cade. Given Cade's strained relationship with his wife, Cameron would sooner invite a dog than have him around. However, all Fabian could do was revel in Cade's misery in his mind while keeping a businesslike facade."It was probably already delivered. The front desk brought in a stack of mail yesterday. I haven't sorted it out yet."He had already sorted out the mail this morning. Everything had gone straight to the trash."Clear my schedule for the day. Make reservations at a restaurant for a celebratory dinner.""Yes, sir."On the day of the show, Monica

    That was obviously an excuse to get Cade out of the picture. Knowing what Mirabelle had done to Cameron in the past, leaving the two of them alone was out of the question. Besides, it wasn't convenient for him to move the car, so he refused without a second thought."Get the attendant—"However, Cameron cut him off before he could finish."Ms. Ackerman is a guest. You should fulfill her requests if she has any."Cade cast her a cold glance. "Shut up." Why should he dance to Mirabelle's tune?Cameron stared at him. "Run along."He gritted his teeth as rage crossed his face. After a brief pause, he sneered and turned to leave. As soon as the door shut behind him, Mirabelle's calm expression slipped. "Did you make me come here just to show off how much you two love each other?""You call that love? I think we have different definitions of what 'love' is then. He's nothing more than…" Cameron's fingers lightly traced the cup's rim as she smirked and said, "A lap dog.""You fu

    Cameron crossed her arms over her chest and gave the bouquet in Cade's hands a nonchalant glance."What are you trying to pull, Mr. Carter?""Fabian said it was Women's Day today.""So what?"There was silence all around. The sound of soothing music could be heard through the door. Cade was silent for a while. "We're not getting a divorce, Cameron."It was the same old topic that Cameron had grown too weary of. She turned around and felt for the cigarette box on the table. There was already a layer of cigarette butts in the ashtray next to it. Judging by the color of the lipstick marks, more than half of them were hers.Cade frowned. He clearly disapproved of her smoking but kept himself from stopping her.Smoke curled from between her lips. The flickering embers of the cigarette reflected in her eyes, softening her indifferent gaze. Through the thin haze, Cameron's lips curled into a wide, unrestrained smile. Every time she smiled in this way, it always filled Cade with a

    Cade began unbuckling his belt as he spoke. When it came to this sort of thing, men often had a strong sense of competition, especially in the presence of a woman they were interested in."Such a dark atmosphere isn't right for our situation."Cameron didn't like him to begin. In such a dark atmosphere, there was no telling what kind of grotesque creature she might imagine him to be. It would be strange if she felt attraction for him.She leveled a steady stare at him. Cade's shirt was half undone, showing his tense muscles underneath. Under the influence of alcohol, his skin took on a faint reddish hue. There was a heart-pounding tension in the air as if something was about to ignite. Occasionally, his slightly heavy breaths could be heard."You haven't been working out recently, have you?" Cameron asked.Cade was confused.Cameron pressed her hand against his chest, right below his ribs, and gave it a little push. After a moment, she commented, "Your muscles are a little soft
