A Lifetime With You

Chapter 30

Selden sped all the way and finally stopped at the entrance of a restaurant.

He actually sped in the city. What a man. Ava couldn’t help retching the moment she got out of the car. Selden panicked a little. “Hey, even though you haven’t fully recovered, you couldn’t be so weak, could you? Are you okay?” “I’m okay…”

He took her arm as they walked into the restaurant and sat down at the table.

Strangely, the restaurant which had always been crowded was totally empty today. There were only waiters and waitresses inside.

“Why is there no other customer?” Ava looked around, finding the atmosphere a little strange. “Of course it’s because I booked the whole restaurant,” Selden said with a big grin. “Don’t you have anything better to spend your money on?” “Of course I do. You’re the one treating this meal, so you’ll be paying for the booking of the entire restaurant.” Ava was drinking a glass of water, and she almost choked.

This was a Michelin-starred restaurant, and even a normal meal here cost a lot. Selden was a rich man’s son, and he could afford to book the whole restaurant if he wanted to. Why would he make her pay? “Even if you were to kill me and sell all my organs, I wouldn’t have enough money for it.” Ava admitted defeat. “Well, since you can’t afford it, I will pay on your behalf. But in return, you have to marry me to pay me back.”

Stop caring about the Radbury family and the Nagel family, okay?” Stop caring? There was a bitterness in her throat. Earlier, she was indeed determined to sign the divorce agreement, but now… “Actually, Damien has been treating me pretty well for the past few days.” “You almost died because of him. Just because he decided to spare you a shred of kindness, you think that he’s treating you well?” “What about you? Selden, why are you treating me so well?” Selden paused for a moment and said with a smile, “Of course it’s because I

But now, he didn’t want to be her best friend anymore. “As long as you say yes, I’ll take you with me and leave now. It doesn’t matter that you don’t like me right now. I just don’t want to see you suffer.” Ava stayed silent for a long time. In the end, she shook her head. “But Selden, it’s too late.” “Why is it too late?
