Lahat ng Kabanata ng Billionaire's Famous Lawyer Ex-Wife: Kabanata 541 - Kabanata 550

Mark stood on the stage, the strong light shining directly into his eyes, making it difficult to see the audience below.When he heard a familiar voice, he instinctively stepped toward a slightly dimmer spot—and that was when he finally saw the woman holding the microphone.It really was Adriana.In an instant, a surge of emotions rushed wildly through his heart. From the moment he had stepped onto the podium, he had been composed and at ease—but now, for the first time, he felt a flicker of nervousness.For a moment, he almost lost his train of thought and forgot what he was supposed to say. Slowing down, he finally managed, “Hello. Please give a brief analysis of this case.”Anaya tugged on the sleeve of Calvin’s suit. Looking at the beautiful face now projected on the big screen, she let out an unrestrained cry.“Brother! Adriana—it’s Adriana!”Calvin frowned and swept her hand away. “Let go.”Long before Adriana’s face appeared on the screen, Calvin had already recognized her voic

Mark’s brows carried a faint trace of pleasure, even though he knew Adriana was only joking.“I have sincerely invited Lawyer Clarke before, but she refused. Lawyer Clarke’s heart is set on Justice — I won’t force anyone. But if there’s ever a chance to work with her, I would naturally be very happy.”Jessica’s eyes widened again. What? Mark had invited Adriana?So it wasn’t Adriana who applied for the job — she was invited?(Do you see me having this kind of honor?)Meanwhile, Calvin had sent Anaya to the car, then casually found an excuse to turn back, drifting silently toward the same place.He didn’t expect that the moment he came within earshot, he would hear Adriana say those words.She wanted to work at S&S?To give Mark a hand in his work?To get close and personal with him?Once the thought took root, it swelled like a monstrous torrent, breaking down the defenses of his heart layer by layer.And to think he had even made a special effort to come back and find her — truly mak

Adriana stood in front of the closet, hesitating between several sets of home clothes. A big hand suddenly reached in and pulled one off the hanger.“Is it hard to choose? This one’s quite suitable.”Heh. Of course—suitable because it had the least fabric and was made of the thinnest material.Two minutes later, Adriana stepped out of the bedroom. Her long hair was swept back, revealing her slender collarbones and bare shoulders. She wore a black silk sheath dress, the off-shoulder cut exposing the vivid red mark on her skin.Calvin’s throat bobbed, his fingertips curling unconsciously.Damn. Was he trying to fix her—or himself?“Sit down.”When the iodine touched her wound, Adriana sucked in a sharp breath. “Be gentle.”Calvin leaned sideways toward her. The sofa was too small, squeezing her into the corner like a lamb waiting for slaughter, while the big bad wolf frowned, his expression carrying a trace of disgust.“Bear with it. It won’t kill you.”“Why did you bite so deeply?”“If

Calvin said in a cold voice, “I am more familiar with the content than anyone else, as well as the other party’s cards, claims, and expectations. After comprehensive consideration, everything aligns with the requirements of my merger and acquisition.”Adriana was flabbergasted on the spot. She really hadn’t expected Calvin to be willing to lend a helping hand to Snow’s father—and he even called it an acquisition. Wasn’t that the same as taking over a mess?“But… does Grand Empire even have digital technology under its banner? I thought you didn’t have a department that develops cameras.”Calvin savored the dish one bite at a time, eating with ease and clear enjoyment. “It’s precisely because there isn’t one that there’s a need to develop it.”Adriana couldn’t help but wonder somewhat narcissistically—was it possible that Calvin was specifically trying to help her?But forming a research and development department… the start-up capital was only the first knock on the door. After that,

Calvin had received the information from his subordinates in Portugal. He hadn’t had the time or the heart to investigate further, so he had flown directly to Lisbon that very day. He never imagined he would see Eleanor again in his lifetime—let alone that she was still alive.In the first five days after arriving in Lisbon, Calvin relentlessly sought out any relevant information. But every time he searched, he either came up empty-handed or mistakenly identified someone else.This led him to think that perhaps the clues his subordinate had provided were a misunderstanding, and that the girl who had died in the fire was truly gone.How could a dead person come back to life?It had to be his emotions getting the better of him.On the sixth day, disheartened and preparing to return home, Calvin was suddenly ambushed at the airport.In the midst of life and death, she suddenly ran out and took the bullet meant for him.By the time Calvin realized who the person was—the one lying in the p
