A Lifetime With You

Chapter 22

The moment Damien said that, Karen and Ava were stunned.

The doctor quickly lowered his head and fled. “Damien, what do you mean?” Karen immediately asked. Damien didn’t say anything. He grabbed Ava’s arm and left, dragging her behind him. His movements were as rough as ever, and his strides were huge. Ava could barely keep up with him.

He only stopped walking after they got out of the hospital. Ava’s face and arms were covered with red marks after being slapped by Karen and held down by the bodyguards just now. Together with the injury Damien caused her in the car, her whole body was covered with wounds. Damien gave her a profound look. He said nothing, let go of her, and walked towards the parking lot. Ava quickly followed him. “What did you mean when you said that you’ve never touched her?” Damien didn’t answer her question. He walked over to his car and opened the door. Ava gritted her teeth and summoned her courage to stop him from getting into the car.

“Damien, can you clarify things? What on earth is going on?”

“Idiot.”

He sneered. He then shoved her away, entered the car, and sped off. Ava tried to chase after his car but failed. After thinking about it, she went back to the hospital. Before she could reach Beth’s ward, Selden held her back. “Selden? Why are you in the gynecology department?” “I’m here for you.” Selden had obviously come just to stop Ava after he heard about what happened.

“I have something to ask Beth.” “Wait a moment! I suggest you not to go there right now, or you might be hurt in the process.”

in front of Ava. “What’s this?” Ava’s heart skipped a beat. She thought that Damien was handing her a divorce agreement. However, although it wasn’t a divorce agreement, there wasn’t much difference between the document in front of her and a divorce agreement. Ava glanced at it. It was a document that said that she would voluntarily relinquish all her shares in Radbury Group. “What do you mean by this?” “After signing this, you won’t have to go to the shareholders’ meeting tomorrow. It would only be an embarrassment.” She sneered. “Is it very embarrassing for you to have me at your company?” Damien didn’t say anything, and there was a noncommittal expression on his

thief. Her heart was already ice cold, anyway. This agreement didn’t make much difference. “So, you’re really divorcing me, aren’t you?” She lowered her gaze, picked up a pen, and put down her signature without the slightest hesitation. “Aren’t you even going to think about it?” Damien was a little surprised at how fast Ava agreed to sign it. He thought that she would make a big fuss or at least defend her rights. But right now, she looked like she couldn’t care less about it, and it made Damien a little frustrated. This woman obviously only married him because of the Radbury family’s wealth and power. What was with her holier-than-thou
