All Chapters of Billionaire's Famous Lawyer Ex-Wife: Chapter 261 - Chapter 270

Henry was rubbing the side of his arm, cold and furiously breaking out in goosebumps.Anna smiled and responded carefully, “I was thinking that since you’re familiar with Dr. Henry, you could help me find the best doctor. Also, I’m afraid of going to the hospital alone—probably because of the post-traumatic stress. Seeing a doctor makes me so scared.”Calvin turned on the speakerphone. “Henry is here with me. Talk to him if you have any doubts.”Henry gave a thumbs-up and mouthed, Count on you. “Miss Blake, hello. I’m Dr. Henry!”Anna froze for a moment. “Ah… Dr. Henry! What a coincidence….”Over the next few minutes, Henry briefly explained a few things to her, including who to contact at the hospital the next day.After hanging up the phone, Henry accidentally brushed against the photo album. The first photo showed Adriana in profile, with an English-style building in the background, a black coffee on the table, and a despondent look on her face.“Hey don’t say you stole the picture

Stunned, but her eyes had already adapted to the darkness, Adriana slowly raised her head and saw Calvin’s cold, hard jawline. He was dressed in black—only his face, paler than usual, stood out against the night.Adriana’s voice was hoarse, her heartbeat completely out of rhythm. In this situation, she didn’t have the mental space to analyze causes and consequences. She simply whispered, “They have knives.”When Maria was being held down on the ground, the man had a knife in his hand. The sharp, cold blade could stab through her belly at any moment. That was why Adriana hesitated to move.Calvin took off his jacket and put it over her. His large hand gently covered her eyes, his broad chest shielding her, as he said, “Don’t look!”Adriana slowed her breathing. The most terrifying moment had passed, and now, surprisingly calm, her small, trembling hand grasped his. “I’m not afraid. I’ll help you.”The man who had crashed into the tree spat to the side, rubbing his back and cursing. “He

Maybe it was a coincidence—or maybe a deliberate arrangement—but today, Calvin booked the same room as last time.The setup was exactly the same, as if no other guest had ever stayed there since.Adriana had the strange illusion that this room was permanently reserved by Calvin.And perhaps, it truly was.Calvin kicked off his slippers and tossed his dirty leather shoes into the trash can. Then, he took out another pair from the shoe cabinet and threw them at Adriana’s feet.“Change into these.”Adriana hesitated.Calvin walked to the liquor cabinet, reached for a bottle of whiskey, but after a moment’s pause, decided to pour a glass of water instead.“You wanted to bail Bruce out, didn’t you? Without my permission, no matter how many trips you make, you won’t be able to get the paperwork done.”Adriana felt a wave of sadness wash over her—so bitter, so heavy, it numbed her.She changed her shoes and stood beneath the chandelier in the living room.“What do you want?” she asked quietl

Maria didn’t dare tell her brother the whole truth. She tried to cover it up with an explanation.“She’s the reason Dad went to jail, and our family ended up like this! Life used to be so good. Now there’s nothing left. I… I just couldn’t help getting angry. I only wanted to scare her a little, to punish her. I didn’t mean to really hurt her.”In James’s heart, although he knew his sister could be a little willful and loved to play around, she hadn’t complained much even though life had become harder in recent years. Given her timid nature, he doubted she would go too far in acting against Adriana. So he tried to comfort her.“Since she wasn’t hurt and was rescued in time, there’s no reason she’d come back to retaliate against you. Besides, our dad’s imprisonment was because of her. She probably feels guilty about what happened to our family.”Hearing her brother explain it that way, Maria’s fragile state of mind began to rebuild itself.Right. Adriana was the guilty one. She had no r

Calvin pulled out the empty chair beside Adriana and settled into it with graceful ease. “You guys chat,” he said.The casual posture was so natural, it made both Adriana and David choke at the same time.From a man’s perspective, the most eye-catching thing was undoubtedly Calvin’s aggressively handsome face—striking no matter the setting. Next was his clothing: unbranded, yet clearly expensive and elegant. When the ten-million-pound watch on his wrist caught the light, David’s pupils shrank slightly in surprise.Even living in the prestigious legal circle, David had never seen a man with such an aura of pride.He tugged at the corner of his mouth awkwardly. “Who is this?”Adriana had just mentioned her friend wasn’t in the UK, and now Calvin had abruptly disrupted that narrative. How could she explain this?“He’s—”Calvin suddenly leaned in close to Adriana. A hint of gentleness shimmered in his reef-like eyes. His lips brushed close to her ear, his breath warm against her skin. “Wh
