A Lifetime With You Chapter 19
Chapter 19
Damien was already gone.
Seeing how arrogant Beth was acting, Ava reckoned that Damien had given her permission to stay here. Beth wouldn’t have had the audacity to stride in like this otherwise.
But this was she and Damien’s home.
While Ava was still stunned, Beth shoved her away and walked straight into the bedroom.
“Beth Nagel, what are you doing?”
“This bedroom is mine from today onwards.”
Hearing the provocation in Beth’s tone, Ava took a deep breath and said, “Get the hell out of here.” “My dear sister, instead of driving me out of this room, you should worry about when Damien will dump you and drive you out of the house instead.”
Beth stepped on Ava’s clothes, which were scattered all over the floor, as she walked towards the bed and sat down on it.
She patted the bed sheet and told the butler. “I don’t like the colour of these sheets. Change them.”
The butler looked awkwardly at Ava. Even though Ava was Damien’s wife, Beth was sent here by Damien’s mother. Based on the current situation, the butler didn’t dare to disobey Beth’s order.
“Butler, pack up all my sister’s stuff and bring them to the guest room.”
When Damien came back at night, he saw Beth sitting at the dining table and having dinner. His expression froze for a moment. “Damien, you’re back!”
Beth put down her bowl as well as chopsticks and ran happily towards Damien. “The butler said that you don’t come home often, so I thought that you wouldn’t be back today. Did you come back to see me because you knew that auntie asked me to move here?” Although Beth’s tone was sweet, as she spoke, she carefully observed Damien’s expression as she was worried that Damien didn’t welcome her here. Damien merely gave Ava, who was sitting beside him, a profound look. He said nothing. Ava hadn’t taken a single bite of the food in front of her. She stood up and said, “I’m done.” She then left the dining room without looking at Damien and Beth. In the past, Damien didn’t even come home once a month, but he had been home many times this week. Ava knew very well that he was probably motivated to come home because Beth had moved here.
Heh, she was now a guest in her own home. Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.
“Damien, you haven’t had dinner, have you? Let’s eat together.” Beth held his arm. Her tone was sweet and affectionate, and she deliberately raised her voice, as though she was deliberately showing off to Ava. Damien looked coldly at Beth and said icily, “Get your hands off me.”
He then turned around and went straight into the study.
That night, Damien received a message containing a photograph from an anonymous person. In the photograph, Ava was being carried in Selden’s arms, and her cheeks were red. The two of them looked extremely intimate, and based on the background, they were in an elevator in a hotel.
That woman actually went to a hotel with another man in broad daylight!
She didn’t even bother hiding the fact that she was cheating on him.
Furious, Damien kicked open the bedroom door. Only to see Beth lying on the bed.
He froze.
“Damien!”
Beth ran over to him.
She was worried about how to coax Damien into the master bedroom to rest. She didn’t expect Damien to come in himself, and she was very happy to see him. “Why are you here?”
Damien’s tone was as cold as ever as he quietly locked his cell phone, which was displaying Ava and Selden’s intimate photograph.
“Ava volunteered to let me stay in the master bedroom because she said that the guest room isn’t well- ventilated and doesn’t have enough sunlight. She said that it’ll be better for the baby’s health.” “She volunteered?”
“Yeah. We are sisters, after all. She is infertile, and the baby in my stomach can be considered her nephew. Of course she is as happy as we are.”
She gently caressed her lower abdomen, which still appeared flat, and there was a seductive expression on her face. Damien sneered. Since that woman valued her relationship with her sister so much, of course he wouldn’t disappoint her.
“Damien, can you stay here tonight to accompany our baby and me?” Beth leaned her head against Damien’s chest. Damien didn’t dodge. Instead, he reached out and wrapped his arm around her waist. “Okay, I’ll stay.”
Beth was delighted. She tiptoed and tried to peck Damien on his cheek, but he turned away and pushed her onto the bed.
The bedroom door was not closed. Ava happened to pass by the door and saw everything. That night, Damien slept in the master bedroom and did not come out. And Ava stood in the corridor for such a
long time that her legs went numb. “The wind tonight is really chilly,” she muttered to herself.
Early in the morning the next day.
When Beth got up, Damien had already left.
His half of the bed was neat and tidy, completely untouched,
At first, Beth was very annoyed at how big the bed in the room was. Even when two people were lying on it, they could be separated by a few feet.
But later, she realized that Damien had no intention of going to bed at all.
He just sat on the sofa by the window and read all night.
He would rather read a book than look at her! In that case, why did he even stay the night in the master bedroom?
Beth was angry, but as she walked out of the room, she plastered a smile on her face.
Ava happened to be walking out of the guest room. Beth held her back and greeted Ava, “Ava, good morning. Did you sleep well last night?”
Ava’s eyes were bloodshot, and she obviously didn’t rest well the night before. Beth stretched herself with a yawn. “I didn’t get to sleep well last night. Damien…” Having said this, she deliberately smiled shyly, “Anyway, Ava, please take good care of me today. My waist really hurts.”
Ava said coldly, “Since you’re here to take care of your baby, you better be careful and not exercise too vigorously on the bed. You might accidentally hurt your baby, and if it’s gone, and you would be chased out of here.” “You…” Without even looking at Beth, Ava turned around to go to work.
Even though her life was a mess, work was still necessary. She walked out of the house and was about to take a cab when a black luxury car stopped in front of her.
The window slowly rolled down, and Damien said coldly, “Get in the car.” Ava was taken aback. Why was he here? Didn’t he leave a long time ago? In the morning, she heard the sound of his car being started and driven out of the courtyard.
Damien obviously didn’t have much patience for her. He repeated coldly, “Get in the car.” Ava didn’t dare to refuse. She was about to be late for work, anyway, so she had no choice but to enter the car.
Damien sped off, and on the way, Ava wanted to ask Damien what had happened. Why was he kind enough to send her to work today? However, looking at the dark expression on his face, she didn’t dare to say a word. “Just send me to the crossroad. I can walk the rest of the journey,” Ava said.” However, before she could finish speaking, Damien suddenly braked and parked the car by the roadside. He then reached out and grabbed her wrist.
