A Lifetime With You Chapter 85


    Chapter 85


    In the evening.


    When Ava returned from work, she noticed Damien was changing his clothes. In the office, Damien


    was dressed smartly in a tie and he would change to casual wear after returning from work. But today,


    he was wearing a suit instead. “Are you going out tonight?” Ava asked. “Yes.”


    “Oh, who are you going out with?”


    Damien tightened his tie and turned around to pinch her nose bridge, “You.” Ava was bewildered and


    before she could respond, Damien pushed her into their walk-in closet.


    “Dress up nicely because we’re going somewhere special tonight.” “Hmm?”


    She was still in a daze, and the closet shut. Something nice…she scanned around and chose a modest


    yet ssy dress that matched the color of Damien’s tie.


    By the time Ava finished, Damien was waiting for her in the living room. “What are you up to?” she


    asked. “We’re going out to dinner.” Damien was extremely satisfied with Ava’s look tonight. Ava was a


    beauty despite her in outfits on normal days. But tonight, she was stunning. “We are attending the


    golden wedding anniversary of Mr. Dominic Turner and his wife, Mrs. Lilith Turner,” Damien told her.


    “Mr. Turner? Do you mean the professor of macroeconomics?” Damien nodded.


    Dominic was their lecturer in the college. Ava knew that both of them were close since college and it


    seemed like they never lost contact even after these years. “But, we will meet our old ssmates and


    lecturers there, right?” Ava was slightly intimidated by the thought. Back then, Damien was her sole


    reason to pursue finance studies. Having no interest in the subjects, Ava’s results were terrible and she


    suffered immensely in the sses. Damien curled his lips, “Don’t worry. Nobody is going to recognize


    you.”


    Ava went silent. There were many students in the college and perhaps only the outstanding ones like


    Damien would be recognized by the lecturers.


    As Ava expected, many prominent figures and renowned lecturers attended the party. Everyone looked


    at Damien upon his arrival.


    Naturally, he introduced Ava to the guests.


    “Mr. Turner, this is my wife, Ava. She was in your ss too.” Dominic failed to recognize Ava due to his


    age and poor eyesight. Ava shook his hand and smiled, “Mr. Turner, I’m just an ordinary student among


    the brilliant ones.” “My dear, you’re extraordinary for having to im Damien as your husband!”


    Everyoneughed upon the remark. The party atmosphere was warm and lively. The couple sat


    together with Dominic and reminisced. “Back then, Damien was a genius and loved by the lecturers. I


    wondered why you didn’t attend a prestigious university abroad?” Damien replied, “Our college was


    ranked top ten in the country and it’s just as good.” “That’s right! I struggled insanely during the senior


    year to enter our college.” Ava muttered. Damien leaned closer and grinned, “Such a shame that I


    wasn’t able to witness your madness back then.”


    “Woah! Looks like our Damien has be chatty and knows how to crack jokes after getting married.”


    Dominic chuckled.


    Observing his current state, Ava wondered just how quiet Damien was back then.


    This is property ? of N?velDrama.Org.


    Dominic was undoubtedly a notable individual since the party was attended by many guests.


    Ava was envious of the old couple. Damien was greeted by other alumni, and he had a toast with them.


    Just then, Ava heaved a sigh. “Everything was alright, so what’s with the long face?” Damien turned


    around and asked. “Nothing, it’s just that I felt uselesspared to other talented alumni.” “You heard it


    yourself. Dominic thinks you are exceptional for making me your husband.” Ava giggled. A sudden idea


    shed across her mind. They attended the party and Ava was introduced to his lecturer. Was he


    nning to have a golden wedding anniversary with her in the future then? Suddenly, she saw


    Damien’s expression hardened. Ava followed his gaze and saw Selina entering the party. Selina saw


    Damien too and approached the couple. “What a coincidence. I wasn’t expecting to meet you two


    here.” Selina smiled as usual. “What are you doing here?” “My mother is the niece of Mrs. Turner, and


    it is natural for me to join the wedding anniversary.” Damien was not intending to interact with Selina in


    the public. Yet, thetter stopped Damien from leaving “Why are you avoiding me? We can still be


    friends despite the breakup.” Breakup… Ava was ufortable to hear this. So it was true that


    Damien and Selina were together previously


    She gulped down a ss of champagne.


    Somehow, Ava felt nauseous after the drink.


    But she didn’t have too much to drink that night. “You two carry on. I am leaving for the washroom.” Ava


    stood up and marched towards the washroom. Damien was concerned but he was stopped by Selina


    before following his wife, “I have something to tell you.” Meanwhile, Ava was throwing up in the toilet. It


    was impossible for her to suffer this much from a few sses of alcohol. Was she feeling disgusted by


    the presence of Selina? Upon exiting the washroom, Damien was nowhere to be seen. She couldn’t


    find him in the crowd and someone offered her a drink. Ava had to decline due to her poor condition.


    Finally, she found Damien standing in the backyard. At this point, Selina was there as well. Ava hid


    behind the tree instinctively.
