A Lifetime With You Chapter 131
Chapter 131
The more Ava thought about it, the more afraid she became, and she kept calling Damien. The automated voice on the phone repeated, “Sorry, the number you have called is currently busy.” She never thought that Damien would be driving and calling his client at this moment. Of course, he couldn’t pick up Ava’s call. Being unable to get in touch with Damien had made Ava even more frightened. She didn’t remember anything about the past, and Jean was her life. How could she let other people just take him away? She immediately called Enrico, “Do you know where’s Damien’s house?” Enrico heard that her voice on the other end of the phone was anxious and she was on the verge of tears, so he asked quickly, “What happened?”
“Damien… he took Jean away!”
At Radbury family house. Enrico picked up Ava and rushed to Damien’s house. Damien didn’t come back yet, and the butler opened the door for them. The moment when the butler saw Ava, everything on his hands fell to the ground with a clatter. “Madam, you’re back?”
Ava didn’t remember him, but she was shocked to see that his tears were about to fall from his turbid eyes.
“Where’s Damien?” she asked eagerly.
“He hasn’t returned yet… I’ve heard him say that Madam has come back safe and sound, but I didn’t believe him. I thought that he missed you so much that he started spouting nonsense. It’s a dream come true! Madam, it’s great that you’re back…” Apparently, the butler was thrilled, and his eyes were brimming with tears. Ava was touched just by looking at him. Jessica and Enrico told her before that everyone in the Radbury family treated her badly. But to her surprise, there was someone in this cold family who was really hung up on her. Enrico couldn’t bear to see such an emotional scene. He then pulled Ava’s hand and rushed in. “Where did my brother take Jean? Hand him over immediately!” “Sir,
you can’t come in! Sir Damien has ordered…” The butler couldn’t stop a strong and tall young man like Enrico. Moreover, he was taking Ava with him. How could he stop them? Ava felt dizzy at the moment she stepped into the house. She remembered the house.
In her dreams, the house appeared countless times. The antique vase in the living room, the spiral staircase which led to the second floor, the painting of
modern industrial style which hung at the entrance… All of these were like nightmares welling up all of a sudden, and they filled her sight at once. It was here, where the man in her dreams with a blurry face spoke to her coldly, “A woman like you doesn’t deserve to be my wife.” It wasn’t a dream, it was her worst nightmare that she couldn’t forget in her past. Ava couldn’t stand firmly and she held on to the wall as she gasped for air. “What’s wrong?” Enrico asked in haste.
“I… I’m fine.”
She forced herself to calm down, but she couldn’t pretend that nothing was wrong no matter how hard she tried.

Enrico asked the butler coldly, “You better be honest with me, where did Damien hide that child?” “What do you mean? He hasn’t even come back yet!” The butler was confused, after all, he didn’t understand what they said. Enrico pushed the butler away and walked up the staircases as he said, “Of course you have to be on guard cause you have received orders from my brother. But today, I won’t allow anyone to take her child away.” In the past, Enrico had never cared so much about Jean. Ava understood right away that he was taking advantage of this opportunity to strike. .
However, she wouldn’t feel satisfied if she didn’t turn this place upside down looking for Jean.
She followed Enrico upstairs immediately. The servants and bodyguards of the Radbury family had gathered and were blocking them, but the butler stopped them from doing so, “Don’t be rude to Madam!” Enrico went straight into Damien’s study room and started rummaging through his desk. Ava walked over to stop him, “You’re not here to help me look for Jean, what plans do you have in your head?”
“Of course I’m worried about Jean, but…”
The butler stood by the door of the study room and said to Enrico, “Sir, he wouldn’t put important things at places that you can see. I think that it would be hard for you to explain to him that you broke into his study room once he’s back.”
“Alright, hand over the child and I’ll leave right away,” Enrico said.
As the three of them were locked in a stalemate, the sound of a car’s engine in the courtyard could be heard.
Damien was back.
Ava ran downstairs quickly and grabbed him by the collar as soon as he entered the door. “Where’s Jean? Where did you take him? Give me back my son!”
Damien came back alone and Jean wasn’t by his side. He looked at Ava’s anxious expression and just as he was about to speak, he saw the butler leading the bodyguards, who were dragging Enrico out of his study room. Còntens bel0ngs to Nô(v)elDr/a/ma.Org
Damien’s face turned cold.
Ava was extremely anxious that she was about to go mad, “Where did you take my son? Give him back to me!” He took Ava’s hand away and told her, “I’ve sent Jean to your mother. I thought you are at
home, and I didn’t expect you to be here.”
“Really?” She didn’t seem to believe it, so he took his phone and handed it to Ava, “You can ask her yourself.” Ava doubted as she grabbed his phone and dialed her mother’s number. “Mom, is Jean at home?” “Yes, we are at home. Why aren’t you back yet? Are you working overtime today?” Jessica obviously has no idea about what happened. Jean shouted at the other end of the phone, “Mommy, daddy picked me up today. Are you angry?” She burst into tears when she heard her son’s voice. She thought that Damien would take Jean away from her, and she might never see her son again… Fortunately, it was only a misunderstanding.
Tears streamed down her cheeks as she was relieved. On the other hand, Enrico leisurely walked down the stairs and stood in front of Damien and Ava. Damien’s expression was ghastly, “Why are you here?” Enrico pointed at Ava who was still on the phone, “She couldn’t find Jean and she knew you picked him up from the kindergarten. Thus, she asked me to help.” “Who do you think you are?” Damien felt uncomfortable that Enrico and Ava had come to his house together. How did they end up together? “Well, I’m no one. Since things are settled, I’ll go,” Enrico whistled and smiling cheekily. Enrico asked Ava beside him, “Ava, do you want me to send you back, or him?”
“I’ll go with you,” Ava quickly hung up the phone and replied to him. Damien reached out his arm and blocked her way promptly.
