A Lifetime With You

A Lifetime With You Chapter 151

Chapter 151

“Mind your own business.” He said coldly and left the room. He didn’t even greet his own parents on the way out of the house. The two photos were clearly taken today. Ava, Selden, and Jean were all at the event in the park. It seemed that they had a good time. As he looked at their smiles and how they stood so close to each other, it seemed that they were the real family! No wonder Ava did not want him to follow them this morning. It turned out that she had already found a companion! Damien’s fists had already tightened unconsciously and his eyes were so dark at this point as if it was a bottomless dark abyss.

At night. After Ava left the park with Jean, they went to have a delicious meal and it was already late when they got home.

The two of them walked into the house talking and laughing all the way but they did not see Damien anywhere. The butler told her, “Mr. Radbury said that he needed to meet some clients and he’ll be back a little later tonight.” Ava thought to herself, what kind of clients did he need to meet on a weekend? However, she had no right to fuss about Damien’s schedule at all. She continued to chat with Jean until late at night, but Damien had still not come home. “Mommy, why hasn’t daddy come back yet?” Jean asked.

“Let’s not care about that and get you ready for bed okay? You have class tomorrow!” After coaxing her son to bed, Ava went back to her own bed and fell asleep.

The next morning when she got up, there was still no sign of Damien. It seemed that he didn’t even come back last night. Then, she glanced at the door of the guest room, but she said nothing. During breakfast, the butler said, “It’s been a long time since Mr. Radbury left home all night like this without a phone call. Something must be wrong.” However, Ava lowered her head and finished the porridge in her bowl as she needed to go to work soon. Just as she was about to leave the house, she bumped

into Damien. She wanted to say hello to him, but he acted as if he didn’t see her and entered the house right away. Damien reeked of alcohol and Ava could clearly smell that! “Damien, you…” She wanted to ask him where he went last night, but she held herself back in the end.

He was gone the whole night and came back with such a huge stench of alcohol, plus even his coat was missing. Wasn’t it clear enough where he went? She had no right to ask where he went. As she thought of this, she put on her shoes and left for work. That day, Damien didn’t show up for work. When Ava returned home, Damien put aside the magazine he was reading and entered the study as soon as he saw her.

Things remained this way for a couple of days. Damien behaved like usual and he didn’t go to the nightclub or bar anymore. Yet, he didn’t talk to her.

He didn’t even eat with them on the same table!

A perplexing cold war had started and Ava didn’t know what happened to Damien at all. However, she didn’t ask him any questions either. At work, he was still the almighty CEO of the group and she was just a normal employee. At home, he treated her as if she was completely invisible. The atmosphere was so tense that it was really uncomfortable. She really couldn’t figure out why Damien was suddenly mad at her. They were fine a few days ago, weren’t they? One day, when she was on the way down to the lobby of the building to collect some parcels, Damien walked into the elevator just as it was about to close.

She was stunned. He had his own personal elevator. Why did he suddenly get into the staff elevator? At that moment, there were only the two of them in the elevator. Ava subconsciously moved further away to the other side. However, Damien did not say a word to her, and he had his back facing her. The elevator stopped on the 17th floor, but she did not get off. The door of the elevator slid closed again. “What are you doing?” Damien asked her.

Then, she took a deep breath and stood in front of him. “Damien, what’s wrong with you?” “My elevator broke down.” Ava felt that this conversation was a little pointless and forced. He deliberately used the same elevator with her yet he didn’t even want to talk to her! During the tense conversation, the elevator had risen from the 17th to the 18th floor. After that, Damien walked across her and went straight out of the elevator.

Ava quickly followed him out and then she saw that there was a sign saying “Under Repair” in front of the CEO’s personal elevator next to her. It turned out that he was not lying at all! Hence, her face suddenly turned red and she blushed furiously out of embarrassment. Seeing that Damien did not pay attention to her at all and went straight into the office, she hurriedly followed him. “Damien, we need to talk.”

“Weren’t you the one who refused to expose our relationship in the company?”

“…”

Then, Damien sat down on the chair, and looked up at her. He said coldly, “Ava, you want everyone in the world to do what you want, but there isn’t such an easy thing in this world, you know?”

His words left her speechless. She couldn’t help but feel wronged. How often had she been taken advantage of by others? Clearly, it was he who forced her to live in the Radbury home and it was also him who prevented her from resigning But now, it was also him who started a cold war with her and he had been giving her the cold shoulder! She didn’t even understand why he was angry. “Well, since you don’t want to have anything to do with me, then we have nothing to talk about anymore. When you want me to move out, just let me know and I’ll leave.”

After that, Ava turned and left the office. When she was on her way out, she bumped into Dempsey. The envelope in Dempsey’s hand was knocked to the ground. Ava quickly squatted down to help pick it up. A few things in the envelope peeked out, all of which were photos they took when they went to the

camp last time. A colleague of another department had already sent the photos to their mailboxes and Ava had already seen it. They were some group photos of everyone. There were many employees and she could only see a very small photo of herself in those pictures. However, all the pictures that Dempsey had were of Ava!

“This…”

“The CEO asked me to print it out,” Dempsey replied. She then turned her head to look at the man sitting in the office.

However, he ignored her and switched on his laptop to start working.

“Give me those photos.” She took the photos directly from Dempsey’s hand and turned to leave. By the time she returned to her own office, Luella was searching for her everywhere. “Miss Nagel, why did you come back so late? I have been looking for you everywhere.” Owned by NôvelDrama.Org.

“What’s wrong?”

“Look at this!”

Luella came up to her mysteriously and showed Ava her phone. This was a gossip group chat of several female colleagues in the company. Hence, Luella had successfully entered the group and was able to scope out a lot of gossips every day. This time, those in the group were saying that someone saw Dempsey with a young man at the cinema. “What’s there to gossip about?” Ava asked. “A few days ago, the rumors between Dempsey and the CEO spread like wildfire, remember? Now that it’s proven Dempsey has a boyfriend, so the rumors have come to an end!”
