A Lifetime With You Chapter 139
Chapter 139
Ava was surprised. She had obviously submitted a letter of resignation to the HR department, but how
did it be a sick leave? She couldn’t exin what had happened to Lue, so she had to make up
a reason, thinking that she was really sick. On Saturday afternoon, Lue and five other colleagues
came all the way to visit her in her home. It had been a long time since her house was bustling with
noises. Her tiny living room was immediately crowded when they arrived. Apart from Lue, no one
knew that she had a son. Therefore, they were surprised when they saw Jean. “Hey Ava, I didn’t
expect you to have a son at such a young age!”
She smiled politely and asked Jean to greet them one by one. In fact, if it weren’t for their sudden
appearance, she actually didn’t intend to let them meet Jean. Jean was very obedient and cooperative.
He greeted politely, “Nice to meet you, uncles and aunts.” At this moment, one of her colleagues
suddenly said, “Hey, don’t you think that Ava’s child looks a little simr to our President?”
As soon as her words came out, everyone nodded in approval. Ava was awkward. What she feared
most was for others to discover Jean’s identity. Fortunately, Jean was sharp-witted. He looked
innocently at her and said, “Mommy, do I have an average-looking face? If not, why do people always
say that I look like someone else? But I obviously look like you the most.” “Haha, that’s right, Jean
looks like mommy, right?” Ava quickly pretended to be cheering him up. Then, she thought to herself,
“If Jean and Damien are considered average-looking, then the threshold of looking average is a little
too high.” After realizing that Ava was a single mother, everyone was afraid to have identally said
something that would offend her. Hence, they immediately switched the topic and began to talk about
something else. They suddenly talked about the team building event that was to be held by the
company next week. Lue asked, “Ava, you look better now. You’ve almost recovered. Will you attend
the event next week?” “Actually, I…”
Since her colleagues came to visit her out of concern of her illness, she was too embarrassed to tell
them the truth about her resignation. She could only ask, “What kind of event is that?” “Of course, it’s to
celebrate thepany’s anniversary. This time, they organized a camping trip to the mountains for two
days and one night. It’s exciting just from the thought of it!” Ava lowered her head and pondered about
it. How could she avoid this topic? After all, how could
she still take part in thepany’s activity after submitting her resignation letter? So, she immediately
said, “Jean is still too young. I think I can’t leave him alone. I probably can’t take part in these overnight
events.” “How can you do that? Ava, I’m still expecting staying in the same tent with you! As for your
child, can’t your mother help you with it?”
Lue held Ava’s hands enthusiastically.
…..
On Monday, Ava showed up at thepany to deal with the paperwork of her resignation officially.
However, her colleagues in the HR department said that they did not receive any letter of resignation
from her at all.
She sent the letter directly through her email. Although she could still find it from her inbox, there was
no trace of her email at the department.
Damien must’ve been responsible for it!
She immediately went to the President’s office. Meanwhile, Damien was lowering his head and
reviewing the documents. Upon seeing her stomping in angrily, he immediately wore a smile and said,
“You were absent for a week, and are you that eager to see me as soon as youe? What’s up, do
you miss me that much?” “You wish! Damien, what are you trying to do?” She ran to his desk and
red fiercely at him. He put down the document unhurriedly and waved to the secretaries to gesture
for them to leave. “Damien Radbury! Although I am just a normal employee, I have the freedom to
decide my life. If you stop me from resigning, I will definitely sue you at the Labour Department!” He
scratched his head, “Seems like your legal awareness has improved a lot after your amnesia.”
Apparently, he was having a headache after she called the cops on himst week and he was forced to
stay at the police station for half a day. Through the slightly opened door, Damien noticed a figure
passing by from the outside. He immediately stood up and walked up to her. She took a step back
subconsciously, and her back identally knocked on the shelf. “What… what are you trying to do?
Stop where you are at!” The incident that happenedst time was still haunting her, and she panicked
suddenly. “If you intend to shout until everyone in the building knows about our rtionship, you can do
it louder,” Damien said calmly.
Ava was most worried about people finding out. She immediately lowered her voice, “Are you
threatening me?” “I’m a businessman, not a phnthropist. I handed you the documents that Enrico
wanted with terms and conditions.”

“What’s the condition?”
He stretched out his hand and fiddled with her long hair. Then, he whispered. in her ears with a deep
voice, “I’ve told you before that you must stand by my side.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the office door was pushed open. Karen stood at the door. She
eximed in shock upon seeing the scene in front of her. She couldn’t believe her eyes as Damien
actually hooked up with a female employee. Fortunately, Damien’s tall stature was enough to block
more than half of Ava’s body, and Karen couldn’t get a glimpse of her face. She said discontentedly,
“You refused the girls that I introduced to youst time. It turns out that you have kept a secret lover in
thepany. You’ve never been like this before!” Until now, Karen still didn’t believe when Damien told
her that Ava was alive. She always thought that he had made up an excuse like this to escape from
blind dates. Therefore, she was displeased when she saw Damien hanging out intimately with a female
employee. Meanwhile, Damien slowly turned around and said to her, “Mum, why didn’t you tell me in
advance before you came?” Karen walked in and sat down on the sofa, “I didn’t n to look for you,
but Enrico said that he misses my home-cooked stew, so I brought some for you too.” Seeing that the
female employee was still hiding behind Damien, she was even more displeased, “Why are you still
there? I’m talking to my son, shouldn’t you leave quickly?”
“Yes… Madam.”
Ava lowered her head and was about to run out, but Damien grabbed her by the cor. “Uh mum, you
haven’t seen her for a long time. You should meet her.” He then pushed Ava to the front. “You… you…”
Karen’s expression changed as soon as she saw her face. The thermal container in her hands instantly
fell to the ground, and hot soup spilled all over the floor. Ava knew she was Damien’s mother after
seeing their interaction. However, she couldn’t recall about this mother-inw of hers. “Ava Nagel, are
you really not dead? You… you…” Karen’s eyes widened in shock, and her gaze was full of horror as if
she had seen a ghost. Finally, she believed her son’s words.
