A Lifetime With You

Chapter 157

At that moment, Damien was in a tense situation with his mother. It had been three days since Karen took Jean back to the residence, and yet she still refused to return the kid to Ava and Damien!

Ava never mentioned this to Damien, but he knew her well enough to know that she must be in a state of panic. Even he was very anxious himself.

“Mom, give Jean back to me.”

“He is my grandson! What’s wrong with me being close to him? Is Ava the one who asked you to come for my dear grandson?” Damien tried very hard to talk some sense into his mother, but to no avail. Meanwhile, Karen had locked Jean in the toy room. Damien walked around the house many times

and didn’t even see him! Her attitude this time was particularly unyielding! “What do you want me to do for you to give him back?” Damien asked. “As long as Ava still stays with you, I will not let her have the chance to harm my dear grandson!” 11 “Mom!”

Karen was extremely angry. “Ava is such a sl*tty woman. Why are you always defending her? Damien, when will you wake up from her seduction?” “What rumour did you hear this time?” “You still want to hide it from me? Your brother Enrico has already told me! She and Selden Oakley have never completely separated! She even brought Jean to meet him! There is no way I’m going to let her ruin my grandson!”

“Enrico?” Damien’s heart sank.

No wonder!

So he was the troublemaker all this time! Previously, his mother’s attitude towards Ava had obviously eased a lot and she didn’t say anything about Ava when she came back. But recently, her attitude had

changed drastically and Karen didn’t even want to let Jean come near his own mother!

It turned out that it was all because of this matter!

“What, you already know about it?” Karen noticed the strange expression on his face. “You clearly know, yet you’re still allowing her to stay in your house? Damien, what are you thinking?” “Mom, do you really not know how Enrico has photos of Ava and Selden together?” “That’s naturally because Enrico is concerned about you. He is afraid that you will be deceived!” Damien sneered and said, “Is that so?” “Then what do you think Enrico wants to do? He’s your brother! Also, the photo was clearly real. Ava really has something fishy going on with that Oakley guy!”

Damien did not say a word and his face turned gloomy. Her mother’s attitude was so tough that even if he wanted to forcefully take his son away, she might not let him go.

He thought for a while. If it went on like this, the only thing he could do was bring a group of bodyguards over tomorrow and take Jean away by force.

On the other side, Ava and her colleagues had finished their work and received a dinner invitation from the other company. Since they were still in the suburbs at the time, they found a restaurant at the edge of the highway. Although the decorations were not very pretty, the dishes were all local delicacies and they tasted good! Cheers were exchanged at the dining table. Although Ava had been telling them that she didn’t drink, Mr. Hemsworth was still able to make her drink a lot. Most of them here were all experienced and had good alcohol tolerance. Seeing that Ava and the few other girls were still new to this, they became the center of all the jokes. Then, Ava went to the bathroom to hide since her excuses were not working back there. However, Mr. Hemsworth caught up with her. “Miss Nagel, you were a champ back there! Why are you hiding here?” Mr. Hemsworth was a little tipsy. He stood at the door of the washroom and grinned. She smiled and said, “Mr. Hemsworth, I really can’t drink so much. Please let me be.”

“Okay, I’ll drink for you later then.”

“Thank you very much!” Then, he revealed an evil smile. “It’s physically tiring to drink so much wine. Miss Nagel, if you don’t repay me in other ways, I won’t just help you for nothing.” As he spoke, he inched closer to her, completely ignoring the fact that this was the ladies’ room. “Mr. Hemsworth, please be more respectful of my boundaries!” Ava hurriedly pushed him away.

“Fiery girl, aren’t you? Why not try being with me? I’m pretty sure that it would be better than earning a few thousand dollars only every month in the company.” Under the influence of alcohol, Mr. Hemsworth became more impudent and rude. He nearly put all his weight on Ava and leaned on her! Because of the business project the Radbury Group had with this man, she tried to resist doing anything that might ruin their business relations. Hence, she could only push him away from her while trying to move towards the door. Fortunately, this man seemed to have drunk too much. He staggered and was unable to grab her. After that, she ran out quickly. In fact, she wanted to run outside to ask for help but after a moment of hesitation, she decided to silently return to the private dining room. If she left just like this and provoked Mr. Hemsworth, it could be her fault for ruining the project. But for her to swallow her annoyance and anger like this… When she returned to the room, she did not see Luella Cox. It seemed like she had gone to the

washroom as well. Ava calmed down and pretended that nothing happened. A few minutes later, Luella stumbled back with reddened eyes. She quickly asked, “Luella, what’s wrong with you?” However, Luella bit her lower lip and didn’t say a word.

The executives at the dinner table were still cheering and chit-chatting with each other. No one was keeping an eye on them at all. The person who came in after Luella was Mr. Hemsworth. He smiled and gave Ava and Luella an ambiguous look.

Luella’s body was obviously shaking as if she was very scared and she even retreated a little. Thus, Ava immediately understood what had just happened. “Did he harass you?” she asked.

Luella shook her head and tears started to roll down her cheeks.

However, she didn’t even dare to cry out under the circumstances. “That b*stard!” Ava was so angry that she couldn’t calm down. If she allowed this pervert to continue taking advantage of the girls, bad things might happen! She was about to stand up in a rage when Luella held her back. “Miss Nagel, don’t mess around. This is a a million-dollar project!” She said in a very aggrieved tone. “Moreover… he just said a few disgusting words to me. He didn’t do anything.” At this time, Mr. Hemsworth suddenly sat down beside Ava and Luella with a glass of wine.

“Miss Nagel and Miss Cox, come on, I’d like to propose a toast to you both.”

It was obvious he was trying to tease them. A man with such a high position proposed a toast to them, who were nobodies in the company in front of a large crowd.

Hence, Luella didn’t dare offend him so she quickly picked up her glass and drank it. Mr. Hemsworth smiled and looked at Ava. “Huh, is Miss Nagel not willing to save me from some

embarrassment?” NôvelDrama.Org holds this content.

“Of course not, cheers, Mr. Hemsworth.” She smiled. He was really a wretched man. He really had the audacity to touch her thighs in front of so many people! She dodged but he sat a little closer towards her.

Finally, she couldn’t bear it anymore. She picked up the glass and stood up. Then, she poured the whole glass of wine onto his head.

“Ava!” Luella exclaimed. Everyone’s eyes were instantly focused on this corner of the room. Mr. Hemsworth got angry on the spot. “Miss Nagel, what the hell do you think you are doing?!”
