A Lifetime With You Chapter 74
Chapter 74
“Because Enrico thinks that I nned the kidnapping to eliminate him from inheriting the family wealth.
So, my brother wants to seek revenge against me.” Damien snickered. Ava was puzzled and blurted,
“What kind of logic is that?” Well, Damien thought that Enrico’s little antics all this while were amusing.
As a child, Enrico would ce cockroaches on his dinner te. Now, he chose to transfer the asset
ownership of Radbury Group secretly to himself as revenge on Damien. All in all, Enrico was satisfied
as long as it annoyed Damien The more upset Damien was, the happier Enrico felt. “Why don’t you tell
him the truth then? You are worried about him and yet he is being selfish.” “Do you think that he can
handle the truth?” Damien asked in return.
Ava was at a loss for words.
Damien was right. Enrico would have a mental breakdown once he discovered the truth. Such a shame
that things had to be this way. Ava then stated, “Damien, I know it’s a mess between you two but I think
there must be ways to resolve this…”
“What if someone tells you that everything that happened between you and Beth is just a
misunderstanding and expects you two get back together, will you agree then?”
“We are not the same because Beth wants me dead!” Ava blurted.
This time, Damien replied, “Exactly. Enrico wants me dead too.”
“But…”
“Plus, I have no intention of forgiving him either.”

Damien went back to his old self. Ava was not good at consoling people up and she could only observe
silently as he gulped the drink over and over again. If it wasn’t for Enrico’s stupid crave for cotton
candy, none of this would have happened. Now both of them hated each other for everything that had
happened, despite their brotherhood. Seemed like the two brothers could never resolve their
differences. Ava sighed helplessly. Tonight, Damien was surprisingly talkativepared to thest two
years. Suddenly, Ava realized that she knew nothing about Damien except for his cold facade. If it
wasn’t for the alcohol, he might never confess his secrets. Ava thought that Damien would be
extremely drunk by the time they were done, but thetter went sober again as they exited the bar.
Moreover, he was ready to drive. Ava was appalled and snatched the car key quickly to him.
Damien was surprised, “You can drive?” “Of course! I received my license back in college, but I never
had the money to buy a car and practice driving.” Knowing that Ava seldom drove, Damien felt uneasy,
and he was convinced to be a better driver than her despite his drunken state..
In the end, they took a cab home. After arriving home, Ava noticed Damien’s piercing stare. She felt
ufortable, “Why are you staring at me like that?” “Everything I’ve said today, you must take them
to your grave.” “Don’t worry, your secrets are safe with me. Plus, I have no one to share them too.”
“Swear it.”
“Fine. I swear, alright?”
Ava discovered that Damien waspletely a different person when he was drunk. Yet, she was d
that he chose to share his secrets with her tonight. Ava took it as a sign of trust from Damien.
The next day.
Probably because of the hangover, Damien was still sleeping soundly. This was rare, as he had a habit
of waking up early. Ava did not attend the office since it was the weekend. She finished her breakfast
and prepared to visit her mother. She found the butler standing by the door and hesitated to wake
Damien up, “Let him sleep. He drank too much yesterday.” “How did he get so drunk at such an
important party?” It waste when both Damien and Ava arrived homest night, and the servants had
slept. So, they were clueless about what happened. Ava exined, “He had a few drinks at the bar,
don’t worry about it.”
“You went to the bar? Is everything alright? Did something happen between the Radbury brothers?”
“Do you know something about their childhood stories, too?” The butler was taken aback and
answered, “I’ve been working for the Radbury family my entire life and it is impossible for me not to
know anything. Did he tell you everythingst night, Miss Nagel?”
Ava nodded.
The butler was suprised. Damien never told anyone his secrets unless he trusted them. “Looks like
both are you are getting along well now.” He was relieved. Ava stunned, “What do you mean?” “What
I’m saying is, you are important to Mr. Radbury. It’s just that he doesn’t realize it yet,” exined him.
Ava was contemting over the butler’s exnation. Was she really that important to him? She had
longed for this day toe, but why was it difficult for her to believe it now? Ava was still distracted
when she arrived at her mother’s house Jessica noticed her behavior and said, “What’s the matter?
You’ve been lost in thoughts since just now. Did you quarrel with Damien again?” “Mom, I think Damien
started to like me.” The words felt wrong as soon as they left her lips and she shook her head,
dismissing them. Ava had a crush on Damien for ten years and they were married for two years now.
Despite that, he never cared for Ava.
But…
Jessica felt her daughter’s forehead and muttered, “You’re not sick, so what’s wrong with you now?”
“Mom, I’m serious. He… he seems to care about metely.”
“I thought Damien is having a thing with Miss Newton? So he’s back to you again? Where’s the dowry
then?” Jessicained. “He just paid off your debts of five million dors. Isn’t that enough for you?
Jessica was in disbelief, “What! So he was the one helping me? I thought you pawned the wedding ring
for the money?” Ava presented her with the box containing the wedding ring and said, “Yeah, about
that…Damien bought it again.” Jessica’s eyes twinkled greedily as she touched therge gemstone on
the ring. “I think he likes you then! How can anyone resist your stunning beauty? Looks like I can buy
more jewelry soon,” she giggled.
