A Lifetime With You

Chapter 133

“Oh gosh, this is as dramatic as a Telenovela! Miss Nagel, don’t tell me that you really are in a relationship with Sir Enrico?” “No! I’m not!” Ava quickly waved her hand. In order to prove her innocence, she had no choice but to tell her, “My… my son is four years old and I’m older than the Vice President as well. How could I possibly be his girlfriend?” “What? Miss Nagel, you’re married?” Obviously, the news had Luella taken aback. Ava nodded seriously and said, “Yes, I’m a single mother.” In order to clarify their relationship, she had to expose her precious son. After all, Luella didn’t know that her son was Damien’s. In short, it was better to not explain their relationship “That’s impossible. Do you really have a son?” “That’s right. When I was abroad, Enrico helped me and my child. I’ve always been grateful to him and the two of us are only friends, that’s all.” Luella absolutely couldn’t believe her at first until she saw Jean’s photo on Ava’s phone. After all, it was impossible for a single mother like Ava who was not from some prestigious family to be the valentine of the Vice President of Radbury Group. However, Ava only dared to show Luella the side profile of Jean as his face looked like Damien’s from the front. She finally explained it clearly, and she silently sighed as she felt relieved. “It seems like I was mistaken, and so is the President. Miss Nagel, what if he troubles you after this?” Luella was worried about her suddenly. “Luella, if the President asked you anything, just tell him you don’t know anything, okay?” “Including the fact that you have a son?”

“Well…Uhm…” Ava hesitated.

There was nothing to convey about this, as her son was his son too. However, she couldn’t tell anyone about this. Luella looked like she had understood the situation and she let out a gasp of surprise, “Miss Nagel, I understand now!” “Huh? What is it?” “So, you don’t like Sir Enrico because you want to get closer to the President?” “Gosh… What are you talking about?” Her face turned red immediately. Luella held her belly and laughed, “Fine, I am just pulling your leg. Miss Nagel, being a single mother is nothing to be ashamed of. It’s already 21 century!” Ava had finally explained herself in this

misunderstanding, but she had a greater concern. Perhaps she would be facing more challenges from now on.

For example, how to open the safe for the sake of Enrico. In order to do this, Ava had racked her brains. She tried to butter up to Dempsey in order to get the password from her. However, Dempsey was polite, respectful, and was seemingly keeping a distance from her. It was hard to get close to her. She had thought about destroying the safe with brute force, although who knew what the results would be. But it was already hard for her to get close to the safe, not to mention destroying it. In short, she had considered many ways, but nothing seemed to be useful in the end. Until a few days later. Ava had an opportunity to go up and send some documents to the President’s secretary’s office. When she walked to the secretary’s office, Dempsey wasn’t there. The President’s office was opened and there was no one inside. The other staff in the secretary’s office told her, “Dempsey and the President went on fieldwork together. You can put the documents on her desk.” After that, the two employees stood up and readied to go to have lunch at the company’s canteen.

Ava looked at the time, and it was lunchtime indeed.

After putting down the file, she dallied in the corridor for a while. When she saw them entered the elevator, she immediately ran into Damien’s office. Now that no one was in his office, so she could try the passwords to open the safe again. During these few days, she had racked her brain, and she felt that a man like Damien would probably prefer convenience, and there was a big chance for him to use the same password everywhere. When she was in the Radbury family’s residence that day, Damien lent her his phone to make a phone call and she had secretly memorized the password that he typed to unlock his phone. She entered the password to open the strongbox according to the numbers in her head. Click-clack’, the safe opened. 2 At that moment, Ava felt that her heart was beating wildly as if it was going to jump out of her throat. It turned out that was the actual password! She had searched the password high and low, but she found it by sheer luck. Ava looked back and found that there was no one outside. She then braced herself to open the safe’s door.

This was the place where Damien specifically stored the important documents and there were lumps of thick documents inside. She heard Enrico described the document that she needed to look for. Luckily, all the documents in the safe were sorted clearly. She found the document that she wanted swiftly. She slowly pulled out a few sheets of paper from a folder and grabbed them in her hands. She then put the folder back to its original place before she closed the safe. After she had done, she stood up and sighed heavily as she was relieved. She was afraid that someone from the secretary’s office would be back soon, and she wanted to escape in an instant. When she turned around, she bumped into a tall man. Property of Nô)(velDr(a)ma.Org.

She was frightened, and her face turned pale. “Didn’t they say that Damien went out? Why is he back?” Since when did he stand there? How come she didn’t notice him at all! Ava moved back gradually until she had her back leaned against the wall, but there was no way out. Damien took only a step towards her and blocked her in the corner easily. “Hand it over,” His voice was eminently cold. Ava’s fists tightened subconsciously and there was no room to revolt. He then took the papers from her hand.

“… …” She opened her mouth but couldn’t say anything. The thief was caught red-handed, and there were no ways to defend herself. She would probably be imprisoned this time.

What about Jean? At that moment, Ava had a thousand things in mind. Damien glanced at those papers that he was holding and sneered, “Did you get closer to me on purpose just for this?” “No, I…” “Ava, you didn’t show up here for me, did you?” His eyes were filled with anger and as he raised his hand, and he threw all the papers in the air. Ava’s back stiffened, and she couldn’t say a word. Damien raised his fist and was about to slam it on her face, so she closed her eyes immediately. She heard a muffled sound by her ear as his fist hit the wall beside her head. “Ava, what am I to you?” “I’m sorry…” He laughed coldly. He wasn’t going to blame her, as she couldn’t remember anything from the past.
