Why not?

Because of love. Because of faith. Because of the dilemma of being caught between the two. Because reason was festering and emotions were spiraling out of control. Because there was too much he couldn’t manage.

But these things, Calvin would never say. He didn’t care to reveal the soft underbelly of his heart to anyone.

He simply looked at her firmly, repeating over and over in his mind that this woman—he would never let go of her again.

“Whether you hate it or love it, you will never part from me.”

And you think you can be happy with someone else?

Dream on.

Adriana didn’t take Calvin’s car after all. He started the engine alone, the screeching tires kicking up dust and sending her long hair flying.

Watching the car disappear into the depths of the night, Adriana felt her heart turn cold.

The goodbye had long been overdue. Hesitation and procrastination had only deepened the wounds. It was she who hadn’t handled the relationship well—but not anymore. Not in the future.

    Aidan hadn’t contacted Adriana since partying the night before. He was worried she’d feel embarrassed, or that his reaching out might come across as reproach.To be honest, he’d tossed and turned for half the night, just wanting to confirm that her boss—Calvin—had gotten her home safely.After struggling with it all night, Aidan figured he’d call her first thing in the morning under the pretense of work. But before he could even dial, he got hit with unexpected news.Sebastian told him that Tony was dead—and that he was holding a will in which Adriana’s name was mentioned.Tony’s case had already drawn media attention, but his death caused an outright uproar. The will got leaked, and netizens seized on it, amplifying every word.The two words Adriana Clarke quickly became a trending topic—and a heavy one at that.Aidan started calling Adriana like mad, terrified that she’d see the news and spiral. But her phone rang and rang, unanswered. Same with Snow’s.He was nearly scared to death

    Each of Adriana’s words was like a needle, piercing Calvin one by one.He recalled the moments he'd spent with her and realized that Adriana had always resisted, rejected, and pushed him away. There had been too many misunderstandings between them, too many obstacles that couldn’t be resolved in a moment. But if her heart had been with him, all of it could have been overcome. Even mountains and seas could be crossed.What truly broke Calvin’s heart was the utter indifference in her eyes.Suddenly, he couldn’t feel the warmth of love anymore.That night, Calvin smoked two packs of cigarettes by the window, the dim, secretive glow in his eyes flickering like embers.“Wow!”With a swipe of his arm, he knocked a bottle of pills off the table.What’s the point of taking these anymore?His insomnia had worsened over the past three years, and his mood was deteriorating.As the eastern sky brightened, Calvin changed clothes and went for a ten-kilometer run. After returning and showering, his

    Aidan asked, “How about the specifics? What’s the first step?”Adriana had a rough idea. The detailed operational steps weren’t perfect yet, but the first step was clear.“Of course—it’s complaining, playing the victim, and creating the image of someone being bullied without the power to fight back.”Carson’s mouth twitched, and he shook his shoulders as if trying to shake off goosebumps. “Can you act it out?”Adriana replied, “I don’t have to show my face. Just post on Twitter—write something pathetic—then watch who engages the most and track the IP addresses.”Sebastian didn’t take a side, but he opened Twitter to see what was trending. Normally, he wouldn’t get involved in this kind of thing. But Tony was his client, and he couldn’t just sit back and do nothing.The moment he saw Twitter, his usually blank expression cracked wide open.“I suggest you take a look first.”One by one, the others checked—and saw Calvin’s news dominating the top five trending topics. Adriana’s small inc

    Unfortunately, Adriana couldn’t see Calvin’s dazzling smile—like a beautiful oil painting—and so the revulsion in her heart didn’t deepen. “Sorry, I’m not as idle as you are.”Calvin pressed his fingers to the tip of his nose, trying to hide the flicker of embarrassment no one could see. “Tell me, what are you planning to do? It’s not easy to set aside an unsolved case—especially one with no proof of death.”Yet deep down, he knew—if she just opened her mouth and asked, even with the softest of words—he would stir up all of New York, uncover the truth, and kneel before her in gratitude.But Adriana no longer pinned her hopes on her ex-husband. She knew full well how powerful Calvin was, but that didn’t matter now. “I’m sorry. I can’t tell you. And thanks to you disrupting the rhythm, I’m afraid I can’t solve it in the timeframe I promised.”“You mean... you’re breaking the agreement?”Adriana paused for two seconds before answering. “I’ll speed up the pace.”Calvin’s lips parted sligh

    Before Adriana arrived, Jessica and Carson’s quarrel had already shocked many people’s views, and the outrageous things that came out of Jessica’s mouth shocked them even more.Selena, who had always seen Adriana as a thorn in her side, naturally wasn’t going to miss the chance to stomp on her while she was down.Now that Adriana’s career was suffering and her emotions were exposed, it looked like she had hit rock bottom and would never recover. How could she still act arrogant and high-minded? In a few days, she might have to pack up her store and leave.Selena straightened her back and laughed coldly. “Lawyer Clarke, you’re not afraid of eating what’s in the bowl while eyeing what’s in the pot? Aren’t you afraid of choking to death? You’re not just secretly hooking up with your boss in the office because your boyfriend can’t see you—you’re also shamelessly digging your claws into Lawyer Carson even though you know he already has a girlfriend!

    Adriana decided not to be merciful anymore. She deliberately straightened her posture and said, “Sorry for what exactly?”Jessica was practically grinding her teeth. She had counted on stepping on Adriana when she was down—kicking her while she was going through a rough patch. But how had things turned out like this?“I was in a bad mood… I couldn’t quite remember, but we did talk about it. Just now, I thought about it… You did encourage me that day, saying you had no interest in Deputy Director Carson. I must have remembered it wrong.”Her voice was low, but Adriana heard it—and so did Carson, who was silently watching.The crowd collectively felt like they’d been doused in a bucket of cold, bloody water.Adriana said, “That’s it? I remember there was more.”Selena, seeing Jessica bow her head and admit fault, snapped, “You’re not in the wrong! Why are you apologizing? Are we not allowed to call out Adriana’s misconduct anymore?”Jessica sharply interrupted her, “Don’t say another wo

    Jessica wiped away her tears and bowed at a neat ninety degrees. “Thank you, Deputy Director, for your guidance. I will repay you with my performance.”Carson waved her off impatiently and pointed toward the door. “Get out.”When Jessica walked out, a dozen pairs of eyes were fixed on her.Having just experienced the most humiliating social defeat of her life, she still managed to keep her composure. “Sorry to disappoint everyone,” she said. “I haven’t been dismissed, and I will not be leaving. We’ll continue to be colleagues. I hope we can separate personal matters from work and carry on professionally.”With that, she walked back to her workstation in long, confident strides, as if she had just won a battle.Jenny was stunned. Selena’s jaw practically hit the floor.Should she curse her—Shameless!—or nod in admiration and say—Crouching bull, hidden shameless queen!?The people in the criminal division were thoroughly embarrassed.

    The refreshing mountain wind brushed against one side of her face—unusual mountains and fields, looking like an immortal.Avoidance was not an option; she had to go up and greet him. Adriana coughed. “Calvin…”Calvin turned his head just in time. As if that weren’t enough, he stood up. His long legs strode toward her, even with the wind pressing into his ribs. The scent of roses and mint mingled with the smell of mountain marshes.“Here it comes.”Hmm?What did he mean?Before Adriana could ask, a large hand landed on her waist. Calvin wrapped his arm around her, pulling her into him, forcing her to hold on.“This is what I told you. My wife, Adriana.”Adriana angled her head and glared. Two sharp daggers flew from her pupils and landed squarely on the man’s face.“What are you up to?”Calvin ruffled her hair with his other hand. “Looki

    A few moments later, Anna wiped her tears and walked out of the parlor—no one came to see her off.Leon spotted her first. “Brother, Anna’s here!”“Sit tight. I’m going out.”Peter got up quickly and followed her, gently offering a handkerchief.Anna kept her head down as she walked, not looking around. Suddenly, the appearance of a handkerchief and a dark figure startled her—she mistook it for Calvin and instinctively smiled,“Calv—”She stopped mid-word, realizing it wasn’t him.“Peter?”Peter stood there with his arms folded, his black suit crisp and sharp. A faint smile played on his lips; he looked like a knight in polished armor.“Did Calvin bully you? I’ll straighten him out if he did.”Anna clutched the handkerchief, shaking her head. “No…”“Oh? Then maybe Grandpa gave you a

    A knowing line officially opened the topic of the day.At that moment, both Peter and Leon fell silent—this was not a cold arrow they were prepared to receive.Peter’s peripheral gaze landed on Calvin, who calmly said, “Stocks go up and down all the time. Grandpa has been in the business world most of his life and understands the laws of the market better than I do.”“Don’t blame the market for a malignant result caused by individual behavior. Do you think I don’t watch the news? Or do you think I’m deaf?”The statement was serious, and instantly, the atmosphere in the garden dropped to freezing. Peter and Leon held their breath in unison, not daring to make a sound.Calvin remained calm and composed. “What did Grandpa hear?”George let out a cold grunt, his frowning brows folding into deep, angry lines. His sharp eyes seemed to carry blades.“I haven’t been

  • Billionaire's Famous Lawyer Ex-Wife   Chapter 302 It was a test

    If a man cheats on his wife during the marriage, it’s considered a serious breach of marital obligations. The woman can hold him legally accountable, and in the event of a divorce, she may not only receive financial compensation but also have an advantage in gaining custody of the children.Adriana said calmly, “Special circumstances can certainly turn things around.”Jessica curled the corner of her mouth into a smirk. “I’ll find out.”The marriages of successful men often carried the shadow of extramarital affairs. If the defendant’s private misconduct could be uncovered, it would be in the plaintiff’s best interest to investigate thoroughly.After thinking for a moment, Jessica softened her tone and smiled. “Lawyer Clarke, thank you for being willing to help. I thought you didn’t want to get involved.”Adriana replied, “Work and personal life shouldn’t be mixed. And I&

    “Thank you for the invitation, but today is obviously not suitable for a door-to-door visit. I’ll treat you to dinner another day as a thank-you for your frequent help over the past two days, whether it’s rare for you or not.”Adriana didn’t give Calvin a chance to respond. Today, she would not set foot in his house again—no matter what.A man and a woman in a closed space—it was easy to make irrational decisions, especially for a woman. The atmosphere could quickly lead to something impulsive. And besides, she wasn’t entirely immune to Calvin’s charm.Calvin stood calmly outside the car door, noting the resistance in her eyes.“Very well. I’ll wait for Lawyer Clarke’s thank-you banquet!”He was testing Adriana’s boundaries little by little, figuring out how to get along with her.The corner of Adriana’s mouth twitched into a polite smile. “Goodbye.”Turning the car around, Adriana gripped the steering wheel. The open window let in fresh air, and the sunlight warmed her face. The most

    “Huh?”Kevin thought he’d misheard. “Green Lake Village? The village you went to yesterday, President?”“Yes,” Calvin replied. “Especially the house on the hill—Tony’s place. Fix it up for the old woman. Send some furniture and get everything properly arranged. You can take care of the details.”Adriana glanced at his serious profile as he focused on driving. Her earlier embarrassment vanished in an instant, and her heart gave a subtle flutter.Kevin’s brain short-circuited for a second, then quickly caught up. “Understood, President. I’ll contact a construction team and arrange everything on site.”The call ended, and the car fell silent again.Adriana touched the bridge of her nose. “Um, I’ll thank you on their behalf.”Calvin chuckled. “Is the next thing you’re going to say, ‘You’re a good person’?”Well… that was almost exactly what she was about to say. But saying something like that now? With everything going on? It felt… a bit out of place.Calvin added, “You can say anything y

    Calvin looked at her as she instinctively reached out, her slender fingers curling with tension, knuckles protruding from the force.“Lawyer Clarke,” he said, “if you want something, just say it straight. There’s no need for adults to play games.”Adriana awkwardly lowered her head and cleared her throat. “Calvin, please watch your words. Can you not always say things that make people misunderstand? Like this morning, and just now—what exactly did you mean? Is there nothing else in your head besides that?”Calvin responded casually, “Which sentence did you misunderstand? Misunderstand what? Lawyer Clarke, please be specific. Maybe I’ll consider changing.”Adriana clenched her teeth and rolled her eyes at him, but couldn’t bring herself to explain further. “In short, it’s uncomfortable to hear.”When they found the car, Adriana was ready to hop into the driver’s seat, but Calvin pulled her toward the opposite side and shoved her gently into the passenger seat.“Be honest—sit. I’ll driv

    Calvin’s identity couldn’t be exposed. Once everyone knew he was the president of Grand Empire—the young master of the Walker family—wouldn’t that cause chaos?That was Adriana’s first reaction.Before she could speak, her body had already moved. She stepped in front of Calvin in a flash, blocking him protectively, and said calmly, “I am his personal lawyer. If there are any problems, I’ll handle them.”Calvin looked at Adriana. She was a bit disheveled, but still stunningly beautiful. This wasn’t something they had discussed in advance, and yet she had reacted purely on instinct. If he couldn’t see that she cared, then he wouldn’t be Calvin.A faint smile tugged at his lips, like the first rays of a new sun piercing through the morning mist—just enough to gently light up the dull earth around them.The local cops weren’t used to handling major cases. They hadn’t dealt with many lawyers before, so they didn’t question it much in the moment. Adriana skillfully shifted the focus, removi

    She shouldn’t have zoned out on such a special day. Adriana skipped over the topic and looked up at the round patch of sky above her head. “Why hasn’t anyone come yet?”Calvin replied, “The nearest police station is in town. With their efficiency, we’ll be lucky if they arrive before dawn.”Adriana sighed, "Yeah... there are just some things you have to know and accept."“Are you just going to stand there? Planning to turn into a statue?”She patted the dirt next to her, then thought better of it and pulled some hay over to make a rough cushion. “Don’t be shy, big brother. Sit down. Who knows how long we’ll be stuck here?”Scar chimed in, “Those guys are seriously unreliable. Might as well sit and wait.”Hearing a gangster complain about the police made Adriana laugh. “From the sound of it, you’ve had some experience?”Scar scratched his head, embarrassed. “Not too many times…”The cave wasn't big enough to tire Calvin, but sitting beside Adriana and gazing at the sky felt like a mome

  • Billionaire's Famous Lawyer Ex-Wife   Chapter 296 The so-called “520.”

    Calvin listened as Adriana half‑chatted, half‑joked, half‑bluffed—effortlessly weaving her way into Scar’s mind and pulling out all his secrets. He couldn’t help but be impressed again.Was the girl he used to know really Adriana?He spoke calmly. “Where’s the rope?”Adriana looked around carefully and had to admit the truth. “The rope was yanked away.”In the darkness, she couldn’t clearly see Calvin’s expression—but she didn’t need to. He was probably frowning. That was one of his little habits. Maybe he hadn’t noticed it himself, but whenever he was annoyed or in a bad mood, he always squeezed his eyebrows together—and the depth of that crease depended on the seriousness of the situation.Scar cursed under his breath. “Son of a bitch! Bunch of assholes!”Adriana glanced up at the cave’s entrance, eyeballing its height, then turned to Calvin.“Can you fly up there?”Scar stared in disbelief. “You… can fly?”Calvin frowned. “No.”Adriana pursed her lips. Her body was exhausted—there
