Billionaire's Famous Lawyer Ex-Wife Chapter 402 Acupuncture
Mr. Teng laughed bitterly. “Are you afraid of pain?”“I just don’t want to suffer unnecessarily.”“Don’t worry, you’ll be able to sleep well tonight. But if you want to completely cure your insomnia, you’ll need two full courses of acupuncture treatment.”Adriana asked on Calvin’s behalf, “How long is one course? Do we need to keep coming back here?”It wasn’t convenient for them to visit M City regularly—they certainly couldn’t come every day.Mr. Teng replied, “One course lasts three months. The first course involves acupuncture every other day. The second course requires treatment once every three days. As for how effective it will be, that depends on the patient himself.”Six months?Adriana couldn’t bring herself to laugh. “Calvin?”Calvin had already closed his eyes, waiting for the first needle. “Let’s see how effective it is first.”If it really worked, he had plenty of ways to get Mr. Teng to New York City.Adriana had witnessed her father undergo acupuncture before—he was mo

Adriana’s face unconsciously lowered even further, her eyes suddenly red and burning. If she hadn’t been trying her best to hold it back, the tears would have certainly fallen.Much of it was like a patch of chicken feathers hidden under a gorgeous blanket—something that couldn’t be lifted or moved.She did, and he did.Mr. Teng nodded and didn’t ask any more questions. “I understand… wait here for a moment, I’ll go prepare a few things.”He walked out of the room. The only sound left was the soft breathing. Adriana didn’t speak, and Calvin didn’t open his mouth either.Time passed slowly, little by little.Calvin finally spoke. “Your cervical spine—does it still hurt?”Adriana looked up, a half beat too slow. “What?”Only through this direct gaze did Calvin notice her reddened eyes, filled with a watery confusion—a look that seemed painfully out of place on her face.Calvin wanted to reach out and touch her, to brush away the sorrow that didn’t belong to her. But reason prevailed. Le
Billionaire's Famous Lawyer Ex-Wife Chapter 400 Family scandal
It was a long time before Adriana learned the full story—told to her by Master Sunyata’s own son.More than sixty years ago, Sunyata and his wife, Han Lan, were married. In that era of arranged marriages—based on parental word and matchmakers’ agreements—young people had little say. The two had no time to develop feelings, let alone love. But shortly after the wedding, they gave birth to a son named Teng Zhifang, meaning “inheritor of medicine,” one destined to prescribe cures and heal illness. Later, he chose to take his mother’s surname, becoming Han Zhifang—the overseas Chinese doctor who had once cured Adriana’s parents.When his son was not yet five years old, Sunyata mistakenly entered the army and went to the battlefield, becoming a war doctor and traveling through many countries.He and his family were separated for seven or eight years…It was during that time that Mr. Teng took on the role of caring for the orphaned and widowed. After spending so much time together, the two
Billionaire's Famous Lawyer Ex-Wife Chapter 399 Death is the shortcut for cowards
The atmosphere was quiet and oppressive. Adriana could hear her own heartbeat.What kind of grudge do these two brothers hold that the very air feels like it's about to weep before they even meet?Mr. Teng shuffled forward on heavy steps. At the sight of the pale visitor, his eyes clouded over. Tears crawled out from the depths of his sockets and slid down the rugged lines of his face.“Big… Brother.”Puff.He dropped to both knees without any cushion.Adriana instinctively moved forward to help—the old man’s bones were too brittle to withstand such kneeling—but Calvin pulled her back just in time, holding her in place, his heart shaking at the sight.Sunyata looked at his brother, whose hair was now silver-white. His usually calm face finally cracked under the weight of sorrow woven through the years. He lifted a hand, trying to help him up, but his hand trembled and failed.“You… get up.”Mr. Teng raised both hands and held the gleaming steel nails high above his head.“Big Brother,
Billionaire's Famous Lawyer Ex-Wife Chapter 398 What must be faced has to be faced
Adriana thought that Calvin must not have heard of the word “human difficulty.”Calvin had always been lonely and arrogant, but not to the extent that he would disrespect his elders. So what was the reason for his strong prejudice against Sunyata?With doubts in her mind, Adriana lowered her head and messaged Calvin: (When you get off the plane later, please control your temper. Whether Mr. Teng can cure you depends on the outcome of their exchange. Didn’t you say you don’t want to go home empty-handed? Then please restrain yourself.)Now, it wasn’t just that he didn’t want to waste time—Adriana didn’t either. She had come all this way, climbed the mountain, and worked so hard. Was it all going to end in failure?After receiving her message, Calvin looked over lazily.Up in the sky, the light struck Adriana’s snowy-bright skin. Her pupils appeared a light brown under the strong sunlight. Her long, rooted lashes cast gentle shadows. Her ears looked almost translucent from the light, an
Billionaire's Famous Lawyer Ex-Wife Chapter 397 The helicopter at the top of the hill
The coldness at the corner of Calvin’s mouth carried a clear hint of disdain.If just a few words could determine my future, he thought, then what do I need my own hands for?“I’ve always believed that fate is in my own hands,” he said firmly. “I won’t trouble the Master.”Sunyata sighed, his eyes resting on Calvin’s unwavering gaze—so full of defiance and resilience, unwilling to back down from his final struggle.“Young man,” he said, “there’s no need to be so arrogant. While people can indeed reach certain realms through their own effort, sometimes Heaven’s will is heavy—so heavy that it cannot be disobeyed.”What destiny in his life could he possibly not defy?Aside from Adriana, Calvin didn’t think there was anything in the world that could shake his resolve, make him feel lost, or cause him suffering.But if the one thing that could do all that was Adriana—then he would fight for her, no matter the cost.He didn’t need anyone telling him what path to take.That’s why Calvin repl
