A Lifetime With You

bed.

“Damien, you…” Before she finished, he had already thrown a quilt on her. It seemed that he wanted her

to stay in the bedroom tonight.

“Don’t worry, I won’t touch you.” Then, he turned sideways and closed his eyes to rest. Ava hesitated for

a while and decided not to agitate him. So, she covered the quilt carefully on herself and slept on the

other side of the bed. It was a big beg with a huge boundary in between them as they were sleeping far

away from each other.

Later, there was some audible gasp from Damien’s side

“Damien, are you asleep?” she asked cautiously

He didn’t answer nor make any move, perhaps he had fallen asleep.

He kept his words on that night, and hence, he didn’t touch her at all

Although they were sleeping on the opposite side from each other as well as using a different blanket,

she could feel that their relationship was getting closer inexplicably

Moreover, Ava had a sweet dream that night.

Anyway, it was nothing much but just a dream, and she was about to wake up

When she was awake and rolled over, she could only feel the empty blanket beside her.

Damien woke up much earlier on and he had left the bedroom.

The watch on her hand read ten o’clock in the morning, and she actually had slept for so long.

She quickly got up and went into the bathroom to clean herself.

While brushing her teeth, she heard some chatting voice outside, so she opened the door to check

on it.

It was Selina, who was standing outside the door and talking with Damien

Selina got a bit stunned when she saw Ava came out from the bedroom.

“Miss Nagel, you are here too.”

Selina was indeed a graceful lady. She instantly changed her expression when she saw Ava, and quickly

greeted her with a polite smile. In

Meanwhile, Ava was kind of feeling very awkward.

What was the matter now?

Selina was in her exquisite professional dress with immaculate makeup while Damien was wearing his

suit elegantly too.

Except for Ava, who was still in her pajamas and wearing the hotel’s slippers. Besides, her hair was

unkempt and her mouth was full of toothpaste foam, perhaps her eyedrops had also yet to be cleaned

up. Without hesitation, she turned around and hid in the toilet after slumping the door. Damien smiled

when he saw her reaction while Selina was a bit surprised by his response. “Wait for me for a moment,”

He told Selina. Then, he walked to the bedroom and told Ava, “I’m going out now. Get your things ready

and packed, Secretary Bradley will be here in a half an hour time to send both you and your mum back

to City A.” Upon hearing this, she spat out the toothpaste foam and opened the door, “Damien, I’m not

going back!” If she went back now, her mum might start to nag again and she didn’t want that to happen.

Moreover, Selina had been utilizing the excuse of working to stay around with Damien every single day

during their business trip. That had made Ava feeling really disgruntled.

Her courage appeared out of nowhere and it emboldened her to refuse his words, “No, I’m not going

back!”

Suddenly, Damien stretched out his fingers to wipe off the residual toothpaste foam from her mouth

and dab on her pajamas. “What are you going to do if you are not going back?” “1… Neither my mum nor

I have been to City B. So, we are here to travel! We will be going to the scenic spot this afternoon

though.” She replied immediately. “Fine then,” Damien replied. Then he walked to Selina and said, “Let’s

go.” “Sure.” Selina grinned and held his hand. The moment when both of them walked hand in hand, Ava

began to reflect on her current outlook that she was still in her pajamas and slippers. Suddenly, she felt

so inferior. After Damien had left the suite, he quietly took away his hand from Selina’s arm. Then, he

ordered his secretary outside the room, “Arrange someone to follow behind Ava wherever she goes.”

“Noted.”

Although Dempsey was a bit shocked by his request, she still obeyed him.

After washing up, Ava hurried to go to her mother. She got to buy herself a new phone soon as the old

one was broken by the two cads yesterday. However, she didn’t tell her mother about the incident that

happened yesterday as she didn’t want her to worry much.

“Ava, who is that?” A young man was standing outside the mobile shop. Soon, Jessica started to aware

of his presence as he was following them after they left the hotel. Ava surmised that he was probably

someone that sent by Damien. Was he intending to spy on herself and her mother to see if they were

really going to have fun at the scenic spot or do something else? She murmured and replied Jessica,

“Damien sent him to guard us along with our travel.” “Oh really? Since when he becomes so caring and

thoughtful?” Ava smiled awkwardly. Jessica began to feel a little proud, “Previously, you refuse to come

over isn’t it? See, not only that you can stop him from messing around, but you can also improve your

relationship with him. Isn’t that killing two birds with one stone?”

Ava seemingly chimed in with her mother’s words, but deep inside she was imagining Damien and

Selina were dating secretly.
