A Lifetime With You

Chapter 54

“I can’t relay the message if you didn’t make an appointment.” In fact, Ava visited the group a few months ago and she even fought in the secretary’s office just to meet Damien. But the receptionist obviously couldn’t recognize that she was Damien’s nominal wife. Given the unpleasant experience last time, Ava didn’t want to disclose her identity this time. But now, it seemed that she couldn’t get to see Damien if she continued waiting like this. She gritted her teeth and receptionist, “I am Damien’s wife, let me go up as I want to see him.”

“Madam? Isn’t our president wife…?” Ava retrieved her wedding photos with Damien from her mobile phone and showed them to the girl. The receptionist was flabbergasted and she covered her mouth for a long time without saying a word. “Can I go up now?” “This… is not edited, right? You… you, you are really…” Ava took the pass from the front desk and headed to the elevator without waiting for the receptionist to finish her question. The receptionist was stunned for a while before she shouted, “Wait, the president is meeting a guest now, you…”

But, Ava had already entered the elevator.

When the elevator reached the eighteenth floor, Ava went out and she was greeted by Damien’s secretary, Dempsey.

Dempsey was also surprised when she saw Ava, “Madam? Why are you here?” “Where is Damien? Is he in his office?”

Ava feared that she would be blocked again, so she pushed Demsey aside nimbly. However, Ava could hear a voice from the president’s office just as she was about to dash in, so she halted her footsteps.

There was another woman in the office with Damien.

It was Selina!

“Damien, what happened to your face?” Damien and Selina were indoors, but he was wearing sunglasses. Besides, there was an obvious

gash below his eyes under the sunglasses. Ava wounded him when she scratched him in the car yesterday. Damien frowned slightly, “Carry on with what my mother had told you.” “Auntie said that the elders from our two families are going to have a meal together next month for the discussion about the engagement.” There was a subtle shyness in Selina’s expression when she told Damien about this. Damien snorted, “She is really in a hurry.”

“Don’t blame Auntie, after all, she doesn’t know about our relationship. She thinks we are dating, so she’ll naturally think about our engagement.” Outside the office, Ava subconsciously clenched her fist so tightly that it had turned white. Engagement? Sh*t, they were really in a hurry. Ava hadn’t officially signed the divorce agreement yet, but Damien’s mother had already chosen her next daughter-in-law.

However, the divorce would be done soon or later. If it wasn’t because it would affect Damian’s reputation, he wouldn’t keep delaying the process of signing the agreement, right? It was just that people like him were constantly surrounded by members of the upper-class, so fame didn’t matter much to him.

Ava turned and left.

In the office, Selina bit her lip and said bashfully, “Damien, I can make it clear to auntie if you don’t want to join the dinner. I can tell her that we are not really dating, but we are just in a cooperative relationship.” “Okay.” Selina was stunned. She assumed Damien would at least hesitate, but he actually nodded and agreed right away. It seemed that Damien really thought nothing of their relationship, except for business cooperation. Selina gave a bitter smile and her expression remained the same, “Damien, I know that you fobbed your mother off by choosing to have a fake date with me

previously. But, now how do you plan on settling Ms. Nagel? After you guys divorce…” “Who said that I would divorce her?”

Damien raised his eyebrows slightly. Selina was taken aback, “But, I heard…”

“You better don’t believe everything that my mother says, especially when it comes to matters like these.”

Meanwhile, at the Westrise Advertising Company. After Ava returned to the company, she returned the document to her boss completely intact. “Mr. Hemsworth, I’m sorry, I really can’t help you solve the problem with the Radbury Group.” “Why? Aren’t you Damien’s wife? Why can’t you lend a hand with such a simple issue? Ava, are you that cold-hearted?” Ava could only bite her lip with a sense of regret under her boss’ relentless questioning. How should she plead with Damien in the situation just now? She didn’t even want to step into that office.

However, she couldn’t think of an alternate solution to solve this matter, other than seeking help from Damien

“Ava, you are placing the whole company at the brink of disaster! Are you going to pay for this hefty penalty? Or you will help me to get more business for our company?”

Mr. Hemsworth could no longer suppress his temper, so he yelled at her. “Mr. Hemsworth, give me a little more time. I will think of another way to solve the company’s problems,” Ava could only say that to ease his anger.

Then, she sighed heavily when she walked out of her boss’s office and returned to her workstation. Albeit she had told him that she would think of another way, but she didn’t the capabilities to deal with this at all!

She would definitely have to pay the compensation fee! Ava gritted her teeth and she knew that she must meet Damien again no matter what. She would accept it even if he sneered at her, humiliated her, or requested her to do something outrageous! It’s not like she hadn’t acted shamelessly before, and it was just an issue of dignity!

In the evening, in the Radbury family’s villa. Initially, Ava assumed that Damien wouldn’t be back tonight. Besides, she was also brooding on how could she meet him to discuss the issue regarding her company. Surprisingly, he was already in the study room. “Damien, I need to talk to you…”

Before she could finish her words, he said preemptively, “I heard from Dempsey saying that you came to the office to look for me this afternoon?”

“Yes.”

“Why are you leave again since you were there?”

Ava cursed secretly in her mind, “Of course it’s because I didn’t want to disturb your date with your mistress.” All content © N/.ôvel/Dr/ama.Org.

She held the displeasure that arose within her and said, “Damien, I have thought about it. As long as you can be magnanimous towards my company, I will agree on whatever conditions you want.” “Really?” Damien raised his eyebrows lazily. “I have agreed to sign the divorce papers from the beginning. So, as long as you promise not to claim the penalty from Westrise Advertising, I will move out of the Radbury family’s villa right away. Besides, I won’t ask for a single penny from you. If you are worried about criticism on your engagement with Ms. Newtown right after you divorce me, I can also issue a statement to make it clear that we have divorced earlier on.”

Damien stood up from the chair. Then, he raised her chin with his hand and stared at her condescendingly.

“I haven’t even signed the divorce papers, but you have already proclaimed that we’ve split up. Isn’t this considered as public deception?” “Isn’t it in your nature to lie and cheat?” “Ah.”

He snorted and let go of her.
