Chapter 61 You still have to deal with them

Adriana clutched the silicone case of her phone, her temples flaring with anger.Why am I so unlucky? Just as she thought she had finally put the past behind her, the defendant reappeared, seemingly bent on causing trouble.He probably doesn’t know what he’s doing—so messed up, she thought. Her bad luck was one thing, but for the defendant, this could very well be the end of the line.Given Calvin’s stingy and calculating nature, jail time seemed inevitable for him.With a heavy heart, Adriana returned to the dining table and mechanically took a few bites of food.“Hey!”Eria, feasting enthusiastically, asked with her mouth full, “What’s wrong? Who dared to give our Lawyer Clarke a hard time this early in the morning?”Adriana took a sip of soup, barely tasting it. “Party A,” she replied flatly.“Cough! Cough! Cough!” Eria choked on her food. “That person... again.” Considering Aidan’s presence at the table and wanting to avoid exposing Adriana’s connection to Calvin, she chose her wo

Chapter 62 Go, write there

“Making a face?”She resisted the urge to kick him in the face and settled for being facetious instead.Adriana closed her eyes slightly and exhaled a breath, forcing herself to raise the corner of her mouth into the fakest smile she could muster. “Mr. Calvin, may I begin?”Calvin’s hand shook, and his coffee nearly spilled. At that moment, he seemed to grasp the meaning behind his grandfather's words, laughing harder than he cried.After a pause, he spoke. “Tell me, what are you going to do about the two cases?”Adriana’s forced smile faded. “First of all, if the compensation cannot be paid within the agreed time frame, the court will seize the defendant's assets and auction them. The proceeds from the auction will be used to compensate the plaintiff.”Calvin asked, “What assets are in the defendant’s name?”Adriana, temporarily caught without the printed documents, took out her phone and scrolled through the dossier. “A house that’s still under a monthly mortgage, located on the out

Chapter 63 She is hungry

Adriana didn’t know that Calvin had secretly detained the perpetrator. Frustrated, she said, “Even if he damaged your personal belongings, he is free until the court decides otherwise. Either that, or you can hand him over to the police for arrest. Detaining someone like this is illegal.”Calvin, appearing somewhat indifferent and lacking understanding of the legal implications, replied nonchalantly, “Since he’s already illegally detained, let’s keep him for two more days to reflect on his actions.”Adriana’s gaze sharpened with determination as she said sternly, “Calvin, illegal detention will create a bad impression on the judge. Jurors often sympathize with the underdog, and we can’t afford to lose their favor. In my opinion, you should report this to the police and let them handle the detention. Then, we can proceed step by step through the court process.”Kevin admired Adriana’s composure. He found it impressive that she could maintain such a clear head while dealing with Calvin,

Chapter 64 Love lunch

The fork he had used had a damp star on its tip. Adriana couldn’t tell if it was grease or spit, though spit seemed unlikely. She knew his table manners too well to think he’d let them slip so publicly.Suddenly, a wave of nausea overtook her—the kind born of humiliation, her dignity trampled beneath someone else's arrogance.Adriana resisted the growing pressure in her stomach, her clenched fist showing veins on the back of her hand. She forced her face to remain calm, concealing the anger boiling inside. “Mr. Walker, your imperial meal is not for an outsider like me to disturb. Please, enjoy it at your leisure. If there’s nothing else, I’ll take my leave so I don’t interrupt your meal.”Calvin raised his eyebrows slightly. He hadn’t expected Adriana to hold her composure so well. She neither cursed nor lost control, and her words were deliberate and precise.Was her submissiveness in the past just an act?As Adriana moved to retrieve her bag, Calvin spoke, his voice firm and unhurri

Chapter 65 Are you jealous

Anna was complimented with peach blossoms, “When I was young, my parents educated my big brother and me that no one is guaranteed a lifetime of great wealth and prosperity and that we have to prepare for a hard life. A lot of things are done by our own hands, I also know how to do handicrafts. I will embroider a flower decoration on your tie someday.”The man’s tie is something that can only be touched by his beloved. Anna is observing the attitude of Calvin.“Calvin said, “Okay.”Anna’s heart snapped, “How is it? Is it good?”“Not bad,” Calvin gestured to Kevin, “Anna specially made the dish. Count yourself lucky today, come over and try it.”Kevin was stunned, “I…”Calvin said, “Didn’t you skip lunch too?”The president gave an order, but Kevin didn’t dare to disobey. He smiled slightly at Anna, “Miss Blake…”Anna generously said, “Please sit! There are too many dishes and we two can’t able to finish it. What’s more, it’s not good to waste food. So, please come and eat.”Kevin was l

Chapter 66 All pride came at a high price

Adriana was now down and out, but back then, she had been twenty-three years old and at the peak of her life. From childhood to adulthood, she had been raised as a princess, her personality steeped in arrogance. Since the age of three, she had received an elite education, learning self-esteem, self-love, and self-improvement. No one had ever taught her how to please others. So now, even though she was at the mercy of others at every turn, she could not abandon the pride embedded in her bones.Calvin sneered. “Far away in the United Kingdom, your parents live precariously, waiting for you to return and earn money for their old age. And what are you doing? Can you eat your dignity? For Miss Clarke, half a million dollars is a mere trifle—the cost of a bag. But for Lawyer Clarke, it’s a year’s worth of food for the family. So, dignity or survival—think carefully before you speak.”Adriana's breathing grew heavy and labored.All pride comes at a high price.Calvin tore away the protective

Chapter 67 Games between couple

She was gambling!All roads lead to Rome. Who doesn’t want a piece of Rome?As soon as Calvin tightened his grip on the back of her head, he pressed her delicate face against the glass, forcing her to look at the world outside the window. “You complain about your family’s decline. Why don’t you spend some time thinking about how to build a new city-state on the ruins? Living in the past and feeling sorry for yourself will deprive you of even this pitiful capital in your hands.”Wow!Adriana lifted her leg and kicked Calvin down. She herself was stunned by the angle—how did she even do it?No matter what, she finally shook off Calvin’s grip. “What qualifications do you have to educate me? You have no idea what I’ve been through, what my parents have been through! Have you ever cared about me? Have you ever asked me about my past? Have you ever had the slightest hint of wanting to understand me?”Adriana looked at the man whose face was darkened by the kick to his leg and moved a little

Chapter 68 What did that jerk do this time?

The moment Adriana grabbed the door and walked out, Calvin was filled with irritation. He wanted to yank her back, kick the glass window, and throw her out.He wanted to ask Adriana, if he hadn’t have enough patience and tolerance towards her. In the past, her family had exploited his connections and taken away so much money. His so-called father-in-law and great-uncle had borrowed his reputation everywhere to pull loans and seek recourse. Calvin thought, if he ever faced Adriana again, he should split her head with a knife, forcing her to take responsibility for her father's debts.Several times, Calvin suspected he was not acting of his own free will but was manipulated by Adriana. Yet, despite his anger, he surprisingly never laid a cruel hand on her. When she yelled and screamed, her words carried an undertone of pride that irked him to his core.This woman made him so angry that his teeth itched with frustration.(Some people use all their stre

Chapter 69 Do something for me

She has this in her heart, and that’s enough. Even if it’s just to spit out some harsh words, where can she really fight with people? Even though she went to fight with him, it was as if hitting a stone with an egg.“The man who hurt me will have to be dealt with sooner or later, but he can’t be so adventurous as to fall on his sword instead.”Eria glared. “Adria, you say you… are so tolerant. Who wouldn’t be heartbroken?”Adriana smiled bitterly, “However, I’m kind of at the end of this lawsuit. Ridiculous, right? I’ve spent so much time thinking I could make a buck.”She had thought that she had practiced enough to be mature and stable. However, as soon as she was involved with Calvin, she was out of control, and cranky for no reason.Eria, so windy and fiery, made Adriana both cry and laugh, almost to the point of tears.“Adria, don’t be afraid.

Chapter 70 Chance encounter

Eria held Adriana’s hand as the two of them walked out of the mall, their high heels clicking against the tiled floor. “Hermès or Chanel, which one should we go for?” Eria asked.“Buying this or that, they’re practically the same models. It’s no fun,” Adriana replied. “Why don’t we check out some niche designer brands? Their styles and originality are less likely to clash with others.”A single outfit from Chanel cost more than ten thousand dollars, and Adriana didn’t want to spend Eria’s money so frivolously.Eria tugged her toward a store. “Can a niche brand even compare to a top one? Besides, you’re a lawyer. Who would take you seriously if you’re wearing something from a no-name brand?”Adriana resisted. “You just told me I look beautiful no matter what I wear. And now you want me to rely on clothes to make an impression? My dear Snow, can you
