A Lifetime With You

Chapter 69

Chapter 69
Selden took a step towards at glared at Selina. “Mind yourself, Miss Newton. I will the first one to come after you if you dare to hurt Ava” warned Selden.
Goosebumps broke out all over Selina. Selden looked different from his usual carefree self, and her plan seemed to fail miserably.
She was in trouble now.
“Mr. Newton, I understood your point of view. But how long can you restrain yourself? Since you are unwilling, then I will do it by myself!”

At the secretarial department of Radbury Group. Damien left for a meeting with Miss Bradley in the afternoon. After less than twenty minutes, an intern from the finance department, Miss Lilly Walker rushed into the office. “Miss Nagel, where is Mr. Radbury?” The sweaty Lilly panted heavily with a folder in her hand. “Oh, he just left. Do come back again after four in the afternoon,” Ava replied. Lilly went into panic, “This is bad! There are errors on the report submitted to him earlier, and here is the corrected version of the document!”
“What!” Ava was stunned at the remarks.
Approximately thirty minutes had passed since both of them left, and it was impossible to catch them up by now. She tried calling both Damien and Miss Bradley again and again, but to no avail. Perhaps the meeting had started and both of their phones were silenced. “What should we do now! The finance department will be sacked if the project goes wrong due to inaccurate data!” Lilly shrieked. Lilly was feeling helpless and broke down in tears. Ava glanced at the new documents brought by Lilly. Indeed, the company would have to suffer a massive loss due to the incorrect figures provided. Although the amended copy could be submitted again in the future, the reputation of Radbury Group would be tarnished by then. “We are doomed…” Lilly had given up and plopped down on the floor. Ava knew that such mistakes were impossible for a fresh graduate like Lilly. She was most probably a scapegoat for the incident. She grabbed Lilly and comforted her, “Don’t worry. The meeting has just started and we can still make it in time if we leave now.” “… Really?” Lilly saw a glimmer of hope upon hearing Ava’s words.
But she soon shuddered in fear again, “No way! I’m just a mere intern and it is impossible to barge into the meeting like that! How can I switch the report on time?” Lilly started sobbing again. Ava couldn’t bear to see her crying and gritted her teeth before saying, “Alright, I will personally deliver the report then.”
“Really, Miss Nagel?” “Yes, but I can’t promise to make it on time.”
Ava grabbed her phone and the report before dashing out immediately without her coat on.
The success of the recent acquisitions as well the career of the whole finance department was at stake now. She could only pray to arrive on time while urging the driver to drive faster. Fortunately, the meeting location was not far away and she arrived within fifteen minutes. Ava rushed inside the tower but was clueless about the exact location. She was left with no choice but to search floor-by-floor.
Ava kept dialing the number but Miss Bradley was not answering her calls. By the time she reached the fifteenth floor, Ava was deeply exhausted and panted heavily. She nearly tripped as she pressed on the elevator door. A group of people exited the elevator and Ava bumped into one of them accidentally due to instability
She felt a firm body and a man groaned in pain.
