A Lifetime With You Chapter 31


    Chapter 31


    As if he was afraid of touching the wound on her wrist, he raised her hands above her head. He then


    held the back of her head with his other hand so that she couldn’t turn away or resist. Ava wanted to


    bite his tongue forcefully, but Damien saw iting and moved his tongue away agilely, prying her


    teeth open while he was at it. Damien’s mouth tasted faintly like mint. Ava was wondering why he ate a


    mint candy, but soon, she became out of breath from the kiss. Her mind stopped working, and she


    subconsciously wrapped her hands around his neck so that she wouldn’t fall to the floor when she


    stepped backwards. He chuckled and pressed her against the wall. The kiss was long and passionate.


    When he let her go, she took deep breaths after deep breaths, and she was blushing profusely.


    Damien seemed to be in a good mood. He didn’t ask her anything else about Selden. Instead, he


    shed a half-smile and asked, “Ava, do you want to sleep?” “I…Of course I want to sleep!”


    Now that Damien was no longer holding her, she hurried up the stairs to her room on the first floor.


    Afraid that he would do something to her, she added, “I want to sleep alone!” She entered the room and


    closed the door. Damien didn’t follow her to the room. Ava leaned against the door and panted loudly.


    Why was her heart beating so rapidly? Her hormones must have been messed up due to the


    pregnancy


    The next day, Ava went to the hospital for a prenatal checkup as nned. Damien did not go with her.


    He told her early in the morning that he had to catch a ne for a business trip in another city. At the


    hospital. Apanied by a servant from the Radbury family’s residence, shepleted her blood test.


    They then walked towards the gynecology department for the prenatal checkup. Ava recovered pretty


    well, but as she was badly injured in the early stages of her pregnancy, she was a little weaker


    compared to other pregnant women. There were many drugs that she couldn’t take, which meant that


    she had to endure many pregnancy side effects. “Look, it’s Kelly Hensley!” When they were about to


    leave the hospital, Ava saw amotion in the crowd. She looked in the direction everyone was


    staring and saw a woman d in luxury brands from head to toe entering the door. She was wearing a


    pair of sunsses. With her pair of stilettos, she had a stylish way of walking. She emanated a


    powerful aura indeed. “It’s really Kelly Hensley! Why is she at the hospital?”


    The crowd whispered among themselves. Ava thought about it for a while before finally remembering


    who this woman was Kelly was a well-known actress, and she had been in the industry since she was


    a child Even though she was only a little over twenty years old, she had been famous for more than ten


    years. She had won awards ranging from the best rookie award to the best actress award. She could


    be said to be one of the top stars in the entertainment industry Kelly was originally walking in a straight


    line, but when she passed by Ava, she stopped in her tracks for a moment. She even took off her


    sunsses Ava didn’t know why Kelly was looking at her as they didn’t know each other at all. Only


    after a while did she realize that they were carrying the same handbag.


    It was a limited edition bag from a top luxury brand, and there were less than twenty of it worldwide


    Of course Ava wouldn’t spend so much money on such a thing. Her mother, Jessica was the one who


    tried all means and methods to get enough money to buy it for her. Her mother said at the time, “You


    are the young missus of the Radburry family! How could you not use something branded that fits your


    status? Don’t let the members of the Radburry family look down upon you!” When she found out that


    her mother actually used all the alimony from her father to buy her a handbag, her heart ached.


    At that time, her mother also said that it was not a mere luxury handbag, and that a female celebrity


    was using it too. Ava didn’t expect that to be true. Kelly’s face twitched a little before she put on her


    sunsses again. She then continued walking. Ava didn’t think much about it and was about to leave


    when Selden’s voice rang out. “You’re here.” Ava turned and saw that Kelly was no longer wearing an


    arrogant expression. She took off her sunsses, rushed over to Selden, and wrapped her arms


    around his waist.


    “Selden, are you serious?” “Yeah, of course I am. Look at my sincere eyes. Do I seem like I’m lying?”


    Kelly was so happy that she tightened her grip on Selden and refused to let go. She didn’t care that she


    was in public at all. Meanwhile, Selden saw Ava and called out to her. “Ava,e over!” Ava didn’t


    want to go, but since Selden had already called her, she couldn’t just ignore him. The three of them sat


    down in Selden’s office. At first, Ava and Kelly put their handbags beside their bodies. But then, Kelly


    snorted softly and hid her handbag behind herself. “Ava, let me introduce my girlfriend to you. This is


    Kelly Hensley. Kelly, this is my best friend, Ava Nagel.”

    Selden smiled and introduced the two of them to each other. He deliberately emphasized the word


    “friend”.


    “Best friend…” Kelly pouted. “Why is your best friend a woman?” “Of course it’s because I’m


    handsome, and all women like me.” Seeing that Selden didn’t even bother being serious in front of his


    own girlfriend, Ava quickly exined, “Miss Hensley, please don’t misunderstand things. I’m already


    married.”


    Selden’s expression darkened a little, and he said sarcastically, “Yeah. Not only is she married, but


    she’s about to have a baby.” Kelly didn’t sense the sarcasm in her boyfriend’s voice at all. She had


    chased after Selden for two months, and today, Selden had finally agreed to be her boyfriend. Her


    heart was filled with joy. Of course, she didn’t suspect anything.


    Meanwhile, Selden’s smile was as dandy as ever, as though he had forgotten all about what happened


    with Ava the day before. “This is great. It seems that he was just joking as usual yesterday.” Ava


    breathed a sigh of relief. Although Kelly had been in the entertainment industry since she was young,


    she was an optimistic and innocent woman. Aside from the fact that she was a little haughty, she was


    actually a good choice for a girlfriend. Selden had good taste indeed. He actually managed to woo a


    renowned celebrity. “Selden, I’m done with my prenatal checkup, so I have to leave now. Have a great


    time with Miss Hensley.” Ava stood up. She didn’t want to disturb Selden and Kelly. “Wait.” Selden


    stopped her. “Ava, although I made a lot of jokes yesterday, there’s one thing I wasn’t joking about, and


    had never joked about.” “What?” Selden’s gaze was profound as he looked at her. There seemed to be


    a thousand words that he wanted to say, and this made Ava’s heart skip a beat. His girlfriend was


    sitting right beside him. What if he said something she shouldn’t? “Selden, I think we should talk about


    this alone,” Ava quickly said. “What right do you have to talk to me alone? Ava, you promised to treat


    me to a meal. Don’t tell me that you refuse to pay for the booking of the restaurant yesterday.” Selden


    raised his voice. Ava panicked. “You… What did you say?”


    “Anyway, I emailed the bill to you. I’ve paid it on your behalf. If you can’t afford it at the moment, you


    can pay in installments. You don’t have to pay me any interest.” Selden shed a cunning smile.


    “Selden, you rascal!”
