A Lifetime With You Chapter 150
Chapter 150
“The kids here all came with their parents and you two are short of a person, and I need a kid to complete the trio. Don’t we make a good team?”
Ava wanted to refuse. After all, this type of activity was completely enough for her to handle alone. As soon as he came, the staff immediately thought of him as the father of the child and asked them to sit down accordingly. “Uncle Selden, do you really want to play this game so badly?” Jean asked confusedly. “Don’t you want me to play with you?” “It’s not that I don’t like it, but mommy alone is enough for me.” “If you let me stay and play with you, I’ll get you marshmallow later.” Jean hesitated for a moment, then he nodded in agreement as he couldn’t resist the temptation of marshmallow.
Ava did not say anything else. Her son was smart, but he was greedy. What could she do when he was bribed by the promise of cotton candy? Besides, the game had already begun. If they were to quit and leave now, Jean would definitely be disappointed.
The games prepared here were very interesting as they were all family activities. Although Jean was young, he was clever. He won three games in a row and even got first place! He was so happy that he repeatedly gave Selden a high five! While Jean went up to the stage to receive the award, Ava could not help but ask Selden, “What do you really want?”
“Jean must not have played this game with his father, right? I’m just here to have some fun with him, so don’t overthink it.” “There’s no need for you to try so hard to please him.” He smiled and said, “I’m not trying to please him, but I’m trying to please you.”
“Selden, I…” Ava was speechless for a moment.
Although she was still grateful that he had saved her back then, she did not want to be involved with him too much. Since she couldn’t repay his kindness, it was better not to complicate things any further.
Selden then suddenly asked her with a serious look, “You haven’t recovered your memory yet, have you?” “Yeah, so what? Do you think you can deceive me again?” He suddenly took her hand and said emotionally, “Why don’t you remember anything yet Damien Radbury gets to be with you and not me?” Meanwhile, Jean just got off the stage at this time. When he saw his mommy holding Uncle Selden’s hand, he was stunned. Then, Ava quickly pulled her hand away and said coldly, “Selden, the problem between you and me
has nothing to do with Damien at all, and it has nothing to do with whether I remember the past or
not.”
“Then tell me, what should I do?”
She stood up and held Jean’s hand as she prepared to leave. However, Selden quickly stood up and stepped in front of her. She avoided his intense gaze and said harshly, “We… are not meant to be, so just forget it. You should cherish the people in front of you.” “But the person in front of me right now is you!” “Miss Hensley likes you very much. After so many years… she’s put a lot of effort in you. You should give her a chance.” Then, Selden let out a bitter smile and said, “Will you give me a chance just because I liked you for a long time?” “You’re right. We shouldn’t force one another to do something that neither of us wants to do.” She really didn’t know how to face Selden. In the past when she lost her memory, she mistakenly thought that he was her husband and believed in him completely. But in the end, everything was just a hoax. Although she was sad, it had been four years. No matter how repulsed she was at him, it could fade over time. However, Selden was even more passionate than he was four years ago. So, she was at a loss as to what to do.
Ava didn’t care if the park staff were starting a new game shortly. Instead, she just wanted to leave with Jean as soon as possible. Dimn, she shouldn’t have agreed to let him follow them into the games! “Mommy, what’s going on between you and Uncle Selden?” Jean asked her in confusion after they walked out of the game area. “We have nothing to do with each other.” “Mommy, we can’t tell daddy
about bumping into Uncle Selden today! He will be very angry!” Although Jean didn’t understand why Uncle Selden suddenly held his mother’s hand and why she avoided him so quickly, he knew that his father would definitely be very angry if he saw it.
At the Radbury family’s residence. After Damien finished reporting to his father about the project, Karen asked him to stay for lunch. During lunchtime, Enrico suddenly returned home. Then, Karen immediately asked him to sit in the dining room. “Didn’t you say you were going out to meet a friend today? I thought you wouldn’t be back for lunch!”
Enrico smiled and said, “Yo, Damien is here too. It’s rare to have a meal with him around, so how could I miss it?”
However, Damien’s expression was cold, and he did not say a single word. Then, their father, Daryl said, “Enrico is right. I know you’re busy with work, but you only come back once or twice a month. That is not right. We aren’t even staying that far from each other. On a weekend like today, you could have brought your son for a meal with us.”
“Okay, next time then,” Damien said.
Next, Karen exclaimed, “You promised us that you’ll bring him along next time repeatedly but you never did! I think you are being manipulated by that woman, Ava! She doesn’t want us to meet out own grandson and now he’s not even close with us!” “I am done eating.” Damien stood up. He put down his chopsticks and prepared to leave. However, Enrico immediately said, “Damien, I haven’t even started eating yet! Are you going to leave already? Do you really not want to see me?” Then, Damien turned around and glared at Enrico coldly. Enrico smiled and said, “Don’t leave in such a hurry. Since you mentioned sister-in-law, I have something to tell you.”
“What is it?”Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.
Enrico had a strange look in his eyes. “I want to talk in private.” Damien couldn’t lose his temper in front of his parents, so he had to follow Enrico into the study.
“If you have something to say, just spit it out.” As soon as Damien shut the door, he spoke in a harsh tone. “Bro, why are you in such a hurry? The reason why I want to talk to you privately is for your own good.”
“For me?”
“If mom and dad see these photos, things will get ugly. So Damien, I’m doing this for your sake. Why are you so aggressive to me for? You didn’t even thank me!” As Enrico spoke, he took out his phone and sent two photos to Damien. As soon as Damien took a look, his face immediately turned livid. Ava was with Jean and Selden! “One of my friends happened to see them this morning, so he took a photo and sent it to me. Don’t worry. I didn’t leak it to anyone except you.” Damien’s face was grim. “Why are you showing me this?” Then, Enrico sniggered and said, “Because I want you to be unhappy. The more upset you are, the happier I am!” When Enrico said these words, his face lit up with joy and he looked like he was watching a funny joke.
On the other hand, Damien looked extremely angry at that moment.
