A Lifetime With You Chapter 124
Chapter 124
When the secretary looked up, she was stunned for a moment. Although there were not many in the
company that knew Ava, she had worked in the secretary’s office before. After four years, there were
only a few employees in the secretary’s office who could still recognize her.
However, they had been warned by the president to act normal around her, even if they met her in the
company. Therefore, the secretary stood up and helped point out the direction to her. “Thank you,” Ava
faintly felt that the secretary was being a little too respectful to her, but she didn’t think much. She got
Dempsey and handed the documents to her. Dempsey smiled to her, “Since these are for the
president, you may send them to the president’s office directly.”
“What?”
The supervisor only asked Ava to hand over the documents to Dempsey, but didn’t mention anything
about handing them to Damien.
She had to bite the bullet as she walked into the president’s office. Damien was in a meeting via video
call with a foreign client. As he saw hering in, he put a finger on his lips indicating her to keep quiet
and wait for a while.
She could only stand where she was and waited quietly with the documents in her hand.
The stack of documents and the folders were quite heavy, so she felt tired after holding it for a while.
As she was shy to put them on the table, so she had to hold onto them. Damien was still meeting with
his client, and his fingers gently knocked on the table, signaling her to put the documents down. She
was relieved and put them neatly on the table swiftly. At this moment, she saw a picture frame on
Damien’s desk. There was nothing in the frame, but a nk sheet. Ava felt strange, people would
usually put a picture of someone precious to them in the frame so that they could see it from time to
time. He had a picture frame, but it was empty. Damien’s video meeting had finally ended, and he
closed hisptop lit. “Ah, sorry to keep you waiting.” In fact, Ava could leave directly after putting down
the documents, but she didn’t. He noticed that she had been staring at the photo frame, so he
exined, “There was a photo of you in the past.”
“What?”
She couldn’t believe any of his words; he must have made it up. He was a liar, wasn’t he?
Damien smiled, “You were gone for so long, I was afraid that I will forget you, so I put a picture of you
and look at it whenever I want. But now you are back, and why would I look at a photo when I
can see you anytime?” How could he forget her when she was deep-rooted in his mind. He then stood
up and hugged her with his arms around her waist. “Ava, we can start fresh, and it doesn’t matter if you
have forgotten everything.” He spoke gently and leaned against her ears. His words were touching and
made her heart fluttered.
Her rationale kept her head clear as she didn’t want to believe his nonsense. Although she wanted to
push him away, she wasn’t able to do so. In a glimpse, she saw a big safe behind where Damien was
sitting.
Enrico said that the file was probably locked in it, was it in there?
She took advantage to move slightly to the safe while letting Damien put his arms around her waist.
“Ava, do you remember that you used to work in my secretary’s office? I used to be a diligent worker,
but I couldn’t focus ever since you arrive and I wanted to keep you by my side.” His voice became
deeper as he smelled the faint sweet perfume on her body. He had missed this familiar scent for a long
time. “…. I don’t remember any of this. Could you tell me more?” Ava answered him casually. She
wanted to get closer and observe the safe, so she had to act perfunctorily for the time being. Damien
was surprised by her sudden obedience but he was d. Heughed, “You’ve always had
misunderstandings about me in the past, we’ve missed out on many things for a long time. Fortunately,
it’s still not toote.”
“Is that so?”
Ava replied absent-mindedly and moved away gradually. Damien thought she gave him sort of
approval to approach her, he then took a step closer and pressed her shoulder against the wall. She
was only an arm’s length away from the safe. She saw that it needed six digits of the password to open
it.
What numbers would a man like Damien use as a password? His birthday? Thepany’s
anniversary? Or the simple 123456? “Your safe… is quite big,” She was beating around the bush.
However, Damien wasn’t in the mood to talk about the safe He chuckled and wanted to kiss her on the
lips, but he was afraid that she would refuse. He paused for a moment, “You can push me away if you
are notfortable.”
Ava was stunned as she didn’t understand what he meant.
In the next second, his lips were an inch away from hers. He held her waist with one hand and stroked
her hair with another hand. Ava was still in a daze as she smelt his faint cologne. Just before she could
react, her legs gave out. She was too caught up as her body moved involuntarily. She subconsciously
hooked her arms around his neck, as if her hands were meant to be there.
Damien’s kissing skills were not refined, but he kissed aggressively and passionately, which made her
lose her breath. At that moment, a thought came to Ava’s mind, “My sacrifice is too big to steal a
document for Enrico!”This material belongs to N?velDrama.Org.
The next second, she regained her senses, and she shoved him away abruptly. Damien was muddled,
and he did not know why she would reject him suddenly. “I’m sorry that I forced a kiss on you.” He said
it nonchntly with a smile. At this point, he didn’t seem to be angry at all. Ava’s face turned red right
after the kiss. She had forgotten about the safe and she rushed out with her head down. Outside the
office, everyone pretended that nothing had happened and went back to work. She felt even more
embarassed and ran out quickly. Enrico had been waiting for a long time in the corridor between the
17th and 18th floor. “Have you seen where the documents are?” He stopped her. “Did you intentionally
set me up?” Ava was quite angry. Enrico noticed that her face waspletely red and after he
understood what had happened, heughed, “So you trapped the bee with your pollens! I knew I could
count on you and I chose the right person.” “My pollens? I’m not doing this anymore!” Ava threw his
hand away. “Ava, I’m screwed if you don’t help me.” Enrico’s eyes looked sorrowful, even though he
was smiling. Ava asked him, “What documents are you asking me to steal? Are they so important?”
“Yeah, exactly, it has to do my life and death.” “Oh gosh.”
