A Lifetime With You

Chapter 158

“Oh my god! I’m so sorry Mr. Hemsworth! My hand slipped!” Ava smiled coldly and tossed the wine glass on the floor. It then broke into pieces. She then took Luella’s hand and turned to leave. Luella was so shocked by what just happened that she couldn’t even utter a single word. “Hey, Ava Nagel! How dare you!”

Mr. Hemsworth flew into a rage and reached out to grab Ava. However, she shook him off with all her strength. Mr. Hemsworth was so drunken at this point, and he staggered. When Ava shook him off, he fell to the ground instantly.

The place he fell on was scattered with broken glass, and he ended up with a bloody head after falling on the floor. Manager Lexis and the rest from the Marketing Department were taken aback. In a panic, they hurried over to help him up.

Mr. Hemsworth seemed to become soberer after hitting his head. He pointed at Ava and shouted, “You! I won’t forget about this! Just wait!” Then, Ava snorted and turned to leave.

The next day, Ava went to work as usual and received a dismissal letter from the department. Luella on the other hand had been crying since morning as she packed her stuff. Obviously, she had been dismissed as well! “Mr. Hemsworth was sent to the hospital yesterday and needed around 6 stitches for the wounds on his face. Manager Lexis and the rest already apologized to him in the hospital. He agreed to forgive them on one condition, which was to fire us.”

Luella said with a sad face. Well, that was expected. However, she was the one who did everything and now Luella was dragged into it. Thus, Ava felt really bad. “Luella, I’m sorry.” Ava apologized. “You did that for my sake! If it weren’t for you yesterday, I… I wouldn’t know what to do!” Luella started sobbing again at this point. Ava patted her on the shoulder to comfort her, but she started crying even more. “Ava, this is my first job after graduation. I haven’t even paid my rent! … you still have Mr. Radbury toRêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only

support you even if you have lost your job, but … what should I do?” Ava felt even worse after seeing her cry so hard. She wanted to appeal to the HR department, but it was Mr. Hemsworth’s condition! Thus, it was impossible to change anything now.

Ava really had no idea what to do and could only say to Luella, “Luella, please don’t cry, I’ll think of something!” “Do you have any ideas at all?” After Ava made sure Luella was alright, she headed to the hospital. She found out that the pervert was still in the hospital. “Mr. Hemsworth, I’m Ava.” She then walked into the ward. Honestly, Mr. Hemsworth’s injuries were not serious at all. They were just external wounds and it kind of ruined his appearance, but that was it! He insisted on staying in the hospital longer just to wait for the Radbury Group to give him an explanation and he wanted to use this chance to negotiate the price of the project. As soon as he saw Ava coming in, his cold face turned cheeky immediately, “Yo, Miss Nagel.” He thought that Ava was here to apologize and immediately smiled wickedly. Ava stood at the door far away from him and said coldly, “Mr. Hemsworth, you drank too much wine last night and accidentally fell on the floor with the broken glass pieces. As a member of staff at the Radbury Group, of course, I’m here to visit you.” “What did you say? I fell by myself?” Mr. Hemsworth was furious again. “If you don’t want to admit that you fell on your own, do you expect me to tell the world that this is karma for harassing us?”

“You…” He was furious, but he immediately smiled and said, “Miss Nagel, I believe you came to me today not to provoke me. So, if you just apologize now and plead for mercy, perhaps I can forgive you and revoke your letter of dismissal.” “Oh, really? What if I don’t want to?” Ava said coldly. Mr. Hemsworth’s gaze suddenly became dark. “If you don’t obey me today, you won’t be able to find a job at all the companies in City A!” The man’s face was still bandaged, and with a dark expression like this, he looked really terrifying indeed.

However, Ava wasn’t frightened at all and she smiled flatly instead, “Are you sure? All the companies? Do you think you are that capable?” “Humph, Miss Nagel, you can try me if you dare!” Although this man was a perverted scumbag, he was still considered somewhat influential in the pharmaceutical

industry in City A. Of course, he would be able to do something about this. Hence, small companies might not really take Luella or her in anymore. After all, no company was willing to hire two trouble- making employees! Then Ava clenched her fists in silence. She came here today not to quarrel with anyone, but to negotiate with him for Luella’s job. “Mr. Hemsworth, it’s fine that you hate me but my colleague Luella has done nothing wrong. I hope that you can spare her.” Ava softened her tone. “Oh? Seems like you do know how to beg after all.”

with uni, “I’m not begging you, instead I’m negotiating with you.” “A negotiation?” “Mr. Hemsworth, you are considered a big deal in the industry. You surely don’t want to be known for harassing girls from another company, right? If your wife knew about it…” “B*tch, are you threatening me?” Mr. Hemsworth became furious. Then, he threw a glass on the bedside table at her and it rolled up to her feet. At this moment, several executives of the Radbury Group’s Marketing Department came in. They brought flower and fruit baskets. It seemed like they were here to visit Mr. Hemsworth. As soon as they saw Ava inside with Mr. Hemsworth, who was angry, Manager Lexis quickly raised his voice, “Ava, what is this! Why is Mr. Hemsworth angry again?” “It’s fine. She is just not being sensible, so I won’t argue with her.” At this time, Mr. Hemsworth put on a fake kind face and said to them that as long as Luella and Ava were fired, he would forget anything that happened. Obviously, he was not willing to give up the joint project with the Radbury Group. Hence, both sides were willing to compromise. They left Ava at the side and no one else paid any attention to her. Seeing that the supervisor of the HR department was also here, Ava immediately said, “Manager Jones, I hope that the issue with Luella.” “Haven’t you done enough? You’re lucky the company didn’t ask for compensation from you! You’d better apologize to Mr. Hemsworth!” “I did nothing wrong! Why should I apologize?” Seeing that Ava’s attitude was still so brazen, the executives were not happy. She came here to fight for Luella’s job. But now, because of her bad temper, things seemed to be even worse!

Manager Jones and Lexis were so angry that they forced her head down in apology. Hence, she was so embarrassed and angry that she could not say a word at all!
