A Lifetime With You Chapter 36
Chapter 36
She tried her best to shield her mind off from pondering on Selina’s affairs. It was better for her to
spend this quality time with her mother. After they finished strolling around, they headed for their lunch.
Ava was thinking to settle their meal in the mall, however, Jessica wanted to have it at the famous
Michelin restaurant nearby.
“Mum, it’s too expensive here. We can change to a cheaper one if you want to have steaks.” , Ava
quietly searched online for this restaurant. She found that the price of a meal per person here could be
worth half a month of her sry, which was too expensive.
But Jessica insisted to eat at that restaurant. “it’s not like we can’t afford it! Do bear in mind that you are
the missus of the Radbury family and you can always book the whole restaurant if you want to. Stop
scrimping and saving like a cheapskate.” “Indeed, I am a cheapskate who cannot understand why
people threw money to a meal. It’s just food, mum.” Ava was a little displeased as her mother was so
arrogant even though she was actually not well born. Until Ava became an adult, Jessica squandered
the alimony that she received from the Nagel family. Since Ava married into the Radbury family, Jessica
had been asking for pocket money in every way possible. However, her life in the Radbury family
wasn’t as good as she expected and it was unlikely to keep taking money from Damien. Every single
penny that she gave to her mother came from her hard work and savings. Jessica didn’t care about
Ava and she walked directly into the restaurant. Ava had no choice but got to follow her mother. 2
“Mum, maybe you can order a little lesser here and we can have some fast food after this.” Ava worried
that she might not afford to pay the bill after looking at the menu price. “If you are short of money, then
you should ask for a credit card from Damien! Don’t always feel sorry for that, anyway that is your
intention of marrying him, you get me?”
Jessica started to lecture Ava.
Ava listened without talking back to her mother. Whatever she said would be just like added fuel to the
fire.
“You should be proud as a missus in the Radbury family and not always be so timid. If you keep on
being so soft, the Radbury family will look down on you, including the outsiders!” “Mom, watch your
words, walls have ears, though.” “What’s wrong with that? You are Damien’s wife, so nothing to be
afraid of!” Suddenly, Ava caught a glimpse of Damien and Selina at the entrance. They were walking
towards the same restaurant together.
She startled for a while and immediately picked up the menu book to cover her face. The world was so
unexpectedly small!
But, why would Damien be here? Shouldn’t he be meeting his clients now? As Jessica realized Ava’s
abnormal behavior, she instantly looked in her direction and saw Damien and Selina wereing into
the private room of the restaurant. They were sitting at the corner in which their angle happened to be
blocked by green nts, so Damien didn’t see them. “What’s going on? Why is there a woman beside
him?” Jessica stood up immediately and wanted to investigate what happened. Ava quickly stopped
her. “Mum, what are you doing?”
Ava tried to lower her voice as much as possible as she was scared that her voice might catch both of
their attention.
“Why are you hiding? Hello, you are his wife and you should let the girl beside him know about your
status! Please be bold and don’t let others trample you.”
Jessica was a person of hot temper and of course, she couldn’t ept her daughter being humiliated
that way. So, she got rid of Ava’s hand and rushed forward.
It was toote when Ava stopped her mum.
Jessica had rushed to the room that Damien and Selina entered, and she was about to push the door
and enter it.
Ava rushed forward and wanted to stop her mother, but she identally bashed the door!
The door was left ajar when she rushed inside.
There were two other middle-aged men in suits in addition to Damien and Selina.
And, there were two documents on the table in front of them. At this point, the four people
subconsciously cast their nce at this gatecrasher. Damien was obviously aggravated, “What are you
doing here?”
So, it was pretty clear now that Damien and Selina were here for business purposes, but not for a tryst.
Ava quickly turned around to look for her mother while she was hiding outside. Her mother dared not to
utter a single word after realizing the trouble that she caused.
It was impossible to tell them that she was pushed inside by her mother. And, it wasn’t even less likely
to tell them that she was here to catch the adultery affair. So, what could she say?
Ava gritted her teeth and looked at Damien as if she was seeking help from him. “Miss, may I know you
are?” one of the clients asked.
“I am…”
Again, she nced at Damien because she didn’t know how to answer.
There were not many people who knew about the official missus of Damien, and perhaps he wouldn’t
want to acknowledge it on this asion too. “Mr. Radburry, do you know this youngdy?”
Damien retracted his gaze, and replied lightly, “No, I don’t know her.” Anyway, it was the expected
response from him.
Ava sneered with a little sadness.
“I’m sorry, I guess I have got in the wrong direction.” She bowed and apologized before she turned to
leave.
Selina was a bit smug with Damien’s answer and she whispered to him, “Should we catch up with
“We will carry on with discussion just now.” His expression was still the same and he didn’t respond to
Selina’s question, but he continued with his discussion instead. Meanwhile, Ava was listening to their
discussion outside while staring at her mother in chagrin. Jessica grinned with a sorry look, “Oh, you
can’t me me on that, you don’t expect me to know their activity behind when they enter the room
together, don’t you?” “Mum, please don’t be so aggressive next time.” Ava continued, “Also, I can’t
control if they meant to do something behind the closed door.” “What nonsense is that? You mean you
allow him to flirt with others tantly?” She was toozy to argue with her mother. Later, she started to
feel nausea again and she quickly ran to the bathroom with her mouth covered.

It was a nasty one to get pregnant. She held on to the edge of the sink as she had no more energy
after a continuous vomit.
She had no idea when would the symptoms of morning sickness be ended. If it wasn’t for this child…
Ava subconsciously stroked her lower abdomen. If it wasn’t for this child, maybe Damien had
abandoned her a long time ago. Absolutely, Damien must have hated her a lot as he couldn’t confirm
his rtionship with Selina due to his status as Ava’s husband.
As she recalled the moment when he didn’t acknowledge her and also his heartless look in the private
room just now, her heart got wrecked.
When Ava walked out of the bathroom, there was someone who handed her a tissue. When she looked
up, it was Selina. “I’m sorry as Damien has no choice to say so in front of his clients just now. Please
don’t take it into your heart.” Selina smiled.
