A Lifetime With You

Chapter 17

Chapter 17
It was a call from Selden!
Why was he calling her early in the morning?
Ava rejected the call with a cold expression on her face. She then covered herself with the blanket again and continued sleeping.

She could feel something warm on her waist. It was an arm. She froze for a moment before remembering what happened last night.
Damien had hugged her to sleep. There was a surge of warmth in her heart, and she couldn’t help but smile. She rolled over to take a peek at Damien’s sleeping face. However, her cell phone rang again. The sleeping Damien frowned, seemingly disturbed by the sound. Ava hurriedly put the phone to silent. She then got off the bed and tiptoed to the balcony to answer the call.
“Selden, what’s up?” Ava asked in exasperation. Selden sounded aggrieved. “What’s up? Didn’t you agree to treat me for three meals? Today happens to be my off day!” Ava was struck speechless. “My ankle is still injured. How am I supposed to go out for a meal with you in this state?” Selden chuckled softly and said in a tender voice, “Don’t worry. I’ll take good care of you.” Ava rolled her eyes. “Not today. Let’s do it another day.” Selden asked indignantly, “Why not?” Ava thought of Damien who was sleeping in the bed, and her tone became a little more tender. “He is home today…” On the other side of the phone, Selden was silent for few seconds before he finally said, “Alrght, then.” After hanging up, Ava turned and realized with a start that Damien was standing behind her. There was an extremely dark expression on his face. When Ava saw the look on his face, her heart skipped a beat. She then subconsciously hid the phone behind her. “Who were you talking to?” he asked coldly. Ava explained. “A friend.” Damien took a step forward towards her, and his expression became even darker. “Not today. Let’s do it another day… He is home today.” This was what Damien had heard. And Ava looked guilty and scared now. Of course, Damien’s thoughts were running wild. Moreover, he saw with his own eyes in front of the hospital that day that Ava was flirting with a man.
“Which friend?” he asked.
Ava didn’t dare to tell him that it was Selden. After all, he had just punished her by tormenting her all night the day before yesterday because of Selden
“Just… Just an ordinary friend,” Ava answered. Damien was emanating such an oppressive aura that Ava took another step backward.
