A Lifetime With You Chapter 112
Chapter 112
“Well, kids grow up very quickly. By the way, thanks for picking me up today!” He helped Ava carry the luggage into the car. He was so considerate that he even prepared a baby seat in the car for Jean. Ava was surprised, “Why do you have this in your car? Are you married and have kids?” “What are you talking about? I specially prepared this for my dear nephew!” Ava was touched. “Actually, I decided to come back here by myself and didn’t want to trouble you.” “Well, even if you didn’t want to trouble me, here you are! But it’s fine because apart from having too much time money, I have nothing else to do.” Enrico was still the same old joker he was. She was a little nervous to arrive at such an unfamiliar place at first, but now she felt more relaxed. “By the way, you told me on the phone last time that you are back to make peace with your brother. How did it go?” Ava asked. As soon as this topic was brought up, the smile on Enrico’s face disappeared instantly. “Uh, I think that is never going to happen anymore. I was just kicked out by him from the party.” “Why is he like that? It’s been so many years!” Over the past few years, Enrico had been telling Ava things about his family. All she knew was that Enrico had a powerful brother who left him no choice but to flee to other countries.
Therefore, her impression of Enrico’s brother was very poor. Enrico smiled helplessly. “Forget about it. It’s not something new. Honestly, I don’t care anymore.” After sighing emotionally, he suddenly turned his head and mysteriously said, “Ava, if there is a chance, I will introduce you to my brother.” “Huh? For what?” “You may be surprised to see him.” Ava hesitated and said. “Did I know him before? Why did you never mention it to me?” “There are things that are better left unsaid. You might be surprised when you see him one day.” While they were chatting, they arrived at the hotel entrance. Jean was still sleeping in her arms. Enrico carried the child in his arms carefully and muttered, “This child is really heavy. You’re quite strong though.” Ava chuckled. She had been carrying him since he was an infant! When they were booking a room at the hotel lobby, Ava was shocked to see the price, “Why the hell is it so expensive? Let’s go look for other hotels.” “I’m paying, why do you care?” “Enrico, I don’t want to trouble you that much! Plus I have saved up some money after all these years of work.”
Enrico stopped her. “Why do you keep forgetting that I’m from a very rich family? Didn’t you say you don’t like my brother? Use the money then! I’ll put it under the company’s account!”
Before Ava refused again, he had already taken the room card and walked quickly ahead with the child in his arms.
She had no choice but to follow up quickly. However, she had already begun to calculate in her mind about how long it would take to pay off the debt and gratitude to this man if she stayed in such an expensive room!
In the Radbury Family’s residence.
Damien’s private detective was reporting to him, “Mr. Enrico went to the airport after leaving the party and picked up two people. It was a woman and a child. They went to the hotel and he still isn’t out by now.”
He frowned. “A woman and a child?”
“Yes, the informant said that it was a young and beautiful woman.” Damien snorted coldly. Enrico didn’t come back for four years. It seemed that he had found himself a wife and even had kids!
However, he came back suddenly this time and announced that he wanted a position in the company. What was he planning? Sure enough, a few hours later his mother’s phone call came. “Damien! You were right! Enrico is back!” Karen’s voice was full of joy. “I know, I’ve met him.”
Although Damien and Enrico didn’t see each other for a few years, he knew their parents didn’t really cut off any connection with Enrico. They even transferred him money and went overseas with the excuse of having a quick getaway. Damien assumed they had already met. Therefore, Damien wasn’t even surprised that his mother called. After exchanging a few words, Karen brought up the request that Enrico asked for at the party as expected.
“Mom, he doesn’t have any experience, so it’s not appropriate for him to be given such a position,” Damien said.
“Who is born naturally with experience? You should at least give him a chance to learn! If you really can’t give him a director’s position, at least make him a manager or something!” Damien sneered when he heard her mother’s words. Manager? After the CEO, a manager is the next highest position in the company. He couldn’t believe his mother would say that like it was nothing. What would happen after that then? Was he going to be replaced? But Damien was already used to the fact that his mother had always been biased towards Enrico. “Damien, I’m pretty sure Enrico came back here with the determination to start working hard. I’ve talked to your father and the board of directors. They all agreed.” “Since you have already asked them, why did you even bother asking me?” Damien hung up the call after that. He felt a little uncomfortable.
The next morning, he decided to meet up with Enrico. Therefore, Damien directly drove to the hotel found by his detective yesterday. Unfortunately, Enrico had already left the hotel early in the morning and was nowhere to be seen. Damien turned around and wanted to leave, but he bumped into a little fellow. The little kid fell to the ground with a thud. Fortunately, he was wearing thick clothes and wasn’t hurt.
“I’m sorry.” The little kid apologized in a hurry. He didn’t take it to heart and reached out to help the child up. Then, when they looked into each other’s eyes, both of them were stunned. Damien was surprised because this child looked like him. They were not very much alike, but they had similar features. The reason why the little boy was stunned was that he found this man very handsome. “Uncle, you are so handsome!” He exclaimed. That made Damien chuckle. Being praised by a child in public was indeed a pleasant feeling.
“You look even more dashing when you smile.”
Damien was dumbfounded.
Instantly, his smile faded away. Since Ava left, he had stopped laughing or smiling that much. But he was easily amused by a little kid this time.
“Next time, be more careful when you walk.” He told the child.
Jean nodded and said, “Well, I am afraid that Mommy will be worried, so I ran too fast. I am going to find Mommy now!” He waved his hand at Damien and then immediately ran outside the hotel.
At the entrance, a woman was waiting for Jean. “I told you not to leave my side!” The woman complained. 2 Damien froze in his spot.Content © NôvelDrama.Org 2024.
