Chapter 141 Where are you?

After taking a shower and coming out of the bathroom, Calvin looked at the opposite building again. It was still dark, and it didn’t seem like anyone had returned.Over the past two days, he had been sleeping a little better than before. Last night, Calvin slept for more than five hours, which was already a huge improvement compared to the past. Determined to maintain this good habit, Calvin decided on the mantra: out of sight, out of mind.After adjusting the telescope to a different direction, he lay down to brew some sleep.Calvin tried to close his eyes and rest his mind. He attempted to empty his brain and meditate, cycling through all the hypnotic techniques Rose had taught him.But by two or three in the morning, his eyes snapped open again.His mind was so clear that he could recite fifty digits of pi. If he were to take the college entrance exam right now, he thought, a perfect math score wouldn’t be an issue.Getting ou

Chapter 142 Show me driving licence

That’s not the point. The point is, digging into this won’t be far from Calvin, Adriana thought. Not to mention, Kevin doesn’t even match the guy in the photo.Calvin trusted Kevin completely.After a moment of consideration, Adriana said, “Public opinion hasn’t fully erupted yet. First, handle the public relations to minimize the impact. Then have the PR and legal teams contact the woman. There’s likely someone supporting her from behind the scenes—she doesn’t seem bold enough to pull this off alone.”Kevin wanted to tell her that the president had already given these orders and they were being carried out, but instead, he simply replied, “Understood. Also, since you’re a key witness, may I trouble you to come to Grand Empire? Our legal department would like to discuss the situation with you in detail and decide on the best approach.”Adriana had no reason to refuse. “Okay, I’ll head over as soon as possible.”Snow appeared from her room, rubbing her head. She saw Adriana hurriedly w

Chapter 143 Chauffeur him around

Calvin’s face was dark, a storm cloud hovering over him, ready to erupt at any moment. “At your age, you should have graduated from kindergarten long ago. So, why do you still think like a naïve five- or six-year-old child? Do you really think you can resolve this matter by writing a simple text statement? If it were that easy, wouldn’t lawyers be out of a job?”Adriana felt frustrated and disheartened. She had offered her opinion from a professional perspective, yet not only did Calvin dismiss it, but he also hit back with biting sarcasm. Thankfully, there were no outsiders in the office to witness the scene. She refused to back down. “You’re questioning my professionalism, which means you must have a better plan. So, what’s your solution?”Kevin stood stiffly by the door, like a soldier bracing for a storm. He feared being caught in the crossfire, the fallout enough to ruin his day.Calvin pulled out a document and slammed it onto the table. “This is the indictment prepared by the l

Chapter 144 Have you been eating in the car?

Adriana’s eyes widened as she let out a soulful question. “Why are you holding my driver’s license?”Did you actually steal my driver’s license? she thought suspiciously.Calvin didn’t bother to explain. “I picked it up.”Adriana laughed coldly, the humor not reaching her eyes. “That’s just awesome.”“Not as awesome as you. Someone had to throw it away for me to pick it up.”****At noon, Adriana reluctantly acted as Calvin’s chauffeur. After driving him to the Star Tower, he got out of the car and said curtly, “Wait for me here.”Before Adriana could protest, he turned around and walked away in large strides.It was a long wait—two hours. Once again, Adriana missed her lunch. However, she’d learned her lesson from before. Midway through the wait, she stopped by a convenience store to grab a sandwich and a coffee.“Yogurt for you, pretty lady? And if you buy a second cup, it will be a half price,” the clerk offered.She paused. It was her favorite brand—low fat and low sugar—and the s

Chapter 145 If I get diarrhea after this, you’ll have to take responsibility.

Adriana wanted to glance back over her shoulder and laugh, but she held herself back. “What can I do? I’m poor, so I have to be careful with my money,” she said with a small shrug.She was telling the truth—though it was slightly exaggerated.“Saying the word ‘poor’ makes it all make sense, huh?” Calvin replied skeptically.He had never tried food from a convenience store before. Picking up the cold sandwich in his hand, he stared at it for a moment, unsure whether to eat it or not.Seeing Calvin frowning at the sandwich, Adriana deliberately added, “The discounted food is usually close to expiring. So if you’re going to eat it, eat it quickly. It’ll taste even worse if you let it sit for too long.”Calvin’s face darkened further. “You bought me this cheap food on purpose, didn’t you?”Adriana kept her eyes on the road as she drove. She opened the yogurt bottle with her right hand and handed it to him. “This one’s new! I already drunk the one that was about to expire. And yogurt doesn

Chapter 146 Are you not sleeping well?

The person in charge of the engineering department noticed Calvin’s face, and his face paled slightly. Striding over to greet him, the man quickly instructed his assistant to fetch a helmet.Calvin took the helmet and put it on, glancing at the construction scene. “The outer wall tiles will be laid this afternoon. Have the workers come down for now.”The person in charge nodded with a polite smile. “Indeed, indeed. It’s too hot today, and I’ve been worried about the workers getting heatstroke. I’ll send them to work indoors for now.”Adriana, who had also donned a helmet, walked inside alongside Calvin. “I didn’t expect you to actually think about the workers,” she remarked.Calvin checked the site as he walked, his gaze steady and calculating. “The safety of the workers is directly tied to the progress of the project. Rather than taking risks to rush the timeline, it’s better to move steadily. This isn’t kindness; it’s just common sense.”Adriana trailed behind him, catching probing

Chapter 147 False alarm

The person in charge of engineering was too nervous to sleep properly—let alone the person at the helm.The weight of responsibility on Calvin’s shoulders was heavier than anyone else’s. Adriana thought.“Not so much,” he said coldly, offering only three clipped words.His personality was like this, and Adriana had long since grown used to it. “You could try improving your sleep with breathing techniques, adjusting your diet, or practicing yoga and meditation. Those things are helpful for better sleep,” she suggested.Calvin’s phone rang. He answered it quickly, responding with a few curt words: “Good.” “Can.” “Um.” The call lasted less than a minute before he hung up.“You are speaking like as if you are an expert in treating sleep disorders,” he remarked, his tone laced with cold sarcasm.Adriana wasn’t angry at his words or his tone. She was used to his ability to make even the most neutral content sound upsetting. “After Clarke’s accident, my parents struggled with insomnia for a

Chapter 148 How about I let you sleep with me instead?

Henry spent half the day indulging in self-importance, only to uncover the key point at the very end.Could it be that Adriana invited him for coffee because she had something important to ask? he wondered.Does she also have insomnia, like Calvin?Adriana took a sip of her coffee and said casually, without giving it much weight, "It's not me; I slept quite well. It's my friend. He seems to have had sleep problems for quite a long time."Henry didn't think too much of it. After all, these days, insomnia was a common symptom for city dwellers. High-rise buildings were full of late-night wanderers. So, he said, "If it's mild, try melatonin or something to calm the mind. But if it's serious, proper treatment is necessary."Thinking about the medicine Calvin was already taking, Adriana added, "It's serious, and he's also a little depressed."Although, truth be told, she couldn’t quite see where Calvin’s depression lay. Aren’t his subordinates under far more stress than he is? she thought

Chapter 149 Adriana, please help me.

After some cheeky banter, Adriana asked Snow about her plans for the evening. Snow replied that she would go home and celebrate with a beer."Okay, I’ll call Aidan too," Adriana said.She then headed to the supermarket to buy ingredients for a hot pot at Snow’s place.Meanwhile, Aidan was in agony. “No hot pot, save me! I’ve been kidnapped by my parents for a blind date!”Adriana tossed a pack of hot pot meatballs into her shopping cart. “You’re a grown man, and you’re still afraid of blind dates? It’s just dinner and exchanging numbers. If you both don't hit off, just let it go.”“No. no, this time is different!” Aidan groaned. “The other party’s family is a business partner of mine. To put it bluntly, I’m being sold—practically auctioned off by my parents. Adria, my dear classmate, come save me! You are the only one who can save me!”Aidan sounded as if he were on the verge of tears.Adriana couldn’t help but ask, “Where is it?”Aidan hurriedly gave her the address. “The Red String

Chapter 150 Have you seen a ghost

The girl bit her pink lips, her eyes flickering with annoyance as she paced around Adriana, clearly unconvinced but reluctantly admitting that Adriana was indeed beautiful. “Are you really his girlfriend?”Adriana wrapped her arm snugly around Aidan’s waist, pulling him closer in an intimate gesture. Just as she was about to respond, her face froze.Mark, who had gone but returned unexpectedly, was now walking side by side with a woman wearing a mask.From across the corridor, their unobstructed gazes met.Mark’s eyes lingered on her for a fleeting moment before his expression faded into indifference, as though he didn’t recognize her. Without a pause, he continued on his way.“Speak up!” the girl demanded, snapping Adriana’s attention back. “You’re not some actress he hired to fake it, are you? This kind of setup happens all the time on TV! It’s so cliché.”The girl pointed accusingly, her hands on her hips, looking every bit like a “proper wife” crusading against a third party.Adri
