A Lifetime With You

Chapter 70

Chapter 70
“Mr. Sachel, please forgive my recklessness,” Ava bowed apologetically once again. Everything then ended. Once Miss Bradley accompanying Mr. Sachel to the hospital, Damien turned around and asked, “What brings you here suddenly, Ava?” “…” Ava smacked her forehead upon realization. She had forgotten the most important task! “Damien, hurry up and go after Mr. Sachel! You have the wrong report for your meeting just now!” Ava passed the amended copy of the document to Damien only to realize that the latter remained calm as if nothing happened. “Don’t you understand? The acquisition will be affected by the wrong figures in the report! You should do something before it’s too late!” Ava was frustrated by his nonchalant attitude. Damien muttered, “The company would have long gone if I didn’t realize the errors in the report.”
“What?”
Damien dragged a befuddled Ava with him into the elevator. Damien had spotted the errors during the meeting earlier. As he recalled the correct figures in the report emailed by the finance department earlier, Damien edited documents by himself. Ava had mixed feelings, “Looks like you’ve got everything under control. What a waste of time for chasing you madly!”
Not to mention that she searched every floor of the building for Damien! Damien was amused and teased her, “Such a foolish action you have there! Although Dempsey missed your calls, you could have got the location details from those who arranged the meeting.” “… I was in too much of a panic just now, it did not cross my mind to do that.” Damien held her hands while exiting the elevator. The driver was waiting and both of them entered the car. “Wait, this document was from the finance department. So why are you here instead of them?” Damien asked.

“It’s because I wanted to help Lilly the intern, whose team worked on this report. I could not bear to see her in such agony, so I volunteered myself to help her.” Damien’s frowning expression was caught by Ava. Everything ended smoothly, so what’s with his long face? He had not let go of her hand since they got in the elevator. Ava was motionless as she gazed at their interlocked fingers. Never thought that they could hold hands together, and it was like a dream for Ava. Ava peeped at Damien. His side profile was perfect under the glowing light from the window. Since she first fell in love with him in high school, she knew that she would spend her life pursuing beauty and justice, and that it was enough for her if she could just stare at his beautiful face silently.
Damien turned around suddenly, “You’ve been staring at me for a while. Am I that handsome?” Somehow, Ava caught a glimpse of his smile.
There and then, she blushed and retracted her hand.
Without her realizing it, Ava’s palm grew sweaty. Damien summoned the chief financial officer, Mr. Emerson Jones immediately upon returning to the office. “Mr. Radbury, it was a mistake by the new intern. Please forgive my negligence and it’s a relief that everything went smoothly…”
Emerson was beaded with sweat as he mentally prepared himself for everything.
But Damien repeated coldly,”… An intern?” “That… that’s right. Don’t worry, Mr. Radbury. I will fire her as soon as possible!” “Sure. Pack your stuffs and leave with her then.” Emerson was in disbelief upon hearing Damien’s instruction. He admitted that the department was at fault this time. Still, everything went well for the company. How could Damien fire him without hesitation?
Damien explained again, “Instead of the mistake made, I was angrier that a mere intern was blamed for your negligence.” “Sir, that is not the case, the intern did really make the mistake…” “Your department committed the error and had an intern to bear the mistakes. In the end, you even had Miss Nagel deliver the reports to me. What a great plan, Mr. Jones.” Damien was losing his patience.
