A Lifetime With You Chapter 162


    Chapter 162


    “I heard that the Radbury family was not very happy and took Jean away after we met up previously.”


    Selden said Her heart skipped a beat. “Who told you that?” “That’s not the point. Damien…” Ava’s face


    turned grim immediately. “Since you already know, you shouldn’te and see me again.” “But I want


    to protect you. Even if you don’t want me anywhere near you, I still want to take care of you.”


    He stretched out his hand to grab her fingers, but she pulled back without any hesitation.


    “Selden, you’re not the one who should protect me. I don’t need your protection either.” She had


    already finished her cup of coffee, so she stood up and said, “It’s time for me to go back to work.”


    After she walked a few steps away, Selden asked her from behind, “Why can’t it be me? Why does it


    always have to be him?”


    Her steps froze for a mere second before she continued walking.


    “It was I who met you first, and I got to know you first! So tell me why?” Selden’s voice was not loud but


    she could hear every word clearly. However, she pretended not to hear anything. After all, not


    everything had to be ‘firste, first serve’.


    Furthermore, she didn’t even know what her heart wanted yet. Hence, she didn’t want anyone to


    meddle with this and decide for her.


    Selden sat still in his seat with a bitter smile on his face. “I’m toote, and I’ll always be toote…” He


    raised his head and saw Kelly standing nearby. Clearly, Kelly had already seen him. However, she


    didn’t go up to him just now because she saw Ava sitting with him. Now that Ava had left, Kelly came


    over and sat on the seat that Ava upied earlier. “Why are you here?” Selden asked her. “Don’t get


    me wrong. I’m not here because of you. My agent brought me here to discuss my advertisement


    project with the Radbury Group. It’s just a coincidence anyway.” It made sense that Hensley, who had


    put off much of his career over the past few years in pursuit of Selden, would want to resume her


    career and work with his former partner, the Radbury Group. Selden didn’t say anything upon hearing


    that. Then, Kelly ordered a cup of coffee and suddenlyughed out loud. “Selden, do you know? I


    never liked Americanos, but because you loved them, I tried to like them and now I’m surprised that


    I’ve gotten used to the taste.” Selden frowned slightly.


    She continued, “I never understood until today. Perhaps you never really liked Americanos at all, and


    you took it only because it is Ava’s usual order.” “What are you trying to say?” Kelly rested her chin on


    her palm and smiled brightly, “When I was a child, I found a puppet. My family thought that I would


    be an animal scientist when I grew up, or a vet at worst. But nobody expected me to be your


    lap-dog.” Finally, Seldenughed.


    The project between the Radbury Group and Selden had finally begun production.


    That day, Damien, Selden, and some other executives went to the production site to check on things.


    The factory was located in the suburbs and the roads along the way were not very well-maintained. To


    make matters worse, they encountered a minor ident as they trundled along a tiny slip road. “Sir, it


    rained a few days ago so the road ahead is a little muddy. Mr. Oakley’s car is stuck in the mud, so I


    think we can’t use this route.” A staff member said to Damien.


    Damien exited the car and saw that Selden and others had also got out of the car. Meanwhile, Selden


    stood on the side of the road and was directing some men to get the wheels out of the mud.


    “It’s really unlucky for me to work with you. Sh*t happens all the time.” Selden said in a sarcastic tone.


    “If you have the time to enjoy the breeze here, you’d better get down there and help to prevent any


    further dys.” Damien replied.


    There were more than a dozen staff with them, so Selden would most definitely not do this kind of


    work!


    He stood on the side of the road and refused to step into the mud to help out. Fortunately, after nearly


    half an hour’s dy, the car finally got out of the mud and they continued their trip.


    Damien looked at the time. He had been dyed on the road for so long that he might not be able to


    reach home on time in the evening.


    Therefore, he sent a message to Ava to tell her that she didn’t have to wait for him to have dinner.


    However, Ava did not reply him.


    At this moment, Ava was in a troublesome situation.


    Karen hade to thepany earlier, and when she heard that Damien was not around, she asked


    the secretary to bring Ava to her! On the other hand, Ava thought that it was Damien who called for her.


    When she reached the office, she realized that it was Karen.


    “Oh, what are you doing here?” She was very surprised. “Why? This is my family’spany. Can’t I be


    here?” “Of course you can. It’s just…what can I do for you?”


    Karen raised her chin and snorted coldly. Then, Ava’s heart started beating rapidly as she had a bad


    feeling about this. Karen hade here out of a sudden looking for her! At the time, she could only


    hope that Damien wasing back as soon as possible. But since he had the stuff to handle, he


    wouldn’t be back so soon. “Why are you so nervous? I won’t harm you.” Karen rolled her eyes. She


    threw out a document and said, “Sign it.” “What is this?” Ava’s heart skipped a beat.

    She knew that her mother-inw never liked her. Could it be that she wanted her to sign a divorce


    agreement and get out of the family?


    Recently, she had been so bored that she started watching TV dramas and what Karen was doing


    seemed to fit the cliche plots! Would Karen hand her a chequeter on? “What are you waiting for?


    Hurry up and sign it before you leave. You’re an eyesore to me.” Karen’s tone was obviously very


    impatient. However, Ava did not take the document on the table. Instead, she took a step back and


    said, “I won’t sign it.” “Ava Nagel, don’t try to be smart with me!” Karen was furious when she heard


    this. She mmed her hands on the table and stood up. “I know you don’t like me, but since I’m


    Damien’s wife and Jean’s mother, you don’t have the right to chase me away, nor can you separate me


    and my son!” Ava’s attitude was equally tough as well. “Well, I haven’t misjudged you! Ava, your


    amnesia is just for show, right? You really are gunning for our family’s wealth!”


    Karen threw the document on the ground and said, “I don’t care if you sign it or not. Just know that the


    Radbury’s wealth will never fall into your hands!” After that, Karen left angrily. She didn’t mention


    anything about Jean. Ava then breathed a sigh of relief. She squatted down to pick up the document.


    When she saw the contents of the document, she was stunned. This document was not a divorce


    agreement but an equity division agreement.
