Love That Wasn't Meant to Last

That was the first time Selena and I shared happy moments together. Although it was tough, it was the only time we truly experienced the hardships together.

Back then, Selena wasn't the heiress of the Norman family. She was just a freshman working at the factory to support herself.

Without the halo of her prestigious background, she would get scolded and cry in the hallway for not doing well. To me, that version of Selena was simply a kind- hearted girl who needed encouragement.

She looked up at me with her teary eyes and asked, "Hudson, do you think I'll be able to solve the issues at the company if I go back?"

Looking into her eyes, I felt a sudden jolt, as if something within me had been awakened. Realizing this, I frowned and quickly turned away, avoiding her gaze.

"It's okay, Selena. Don't be afraid. Just go back to the company confidently. If there's anything you don't understand, you can come to me for help. I'll be there for you."

In the end, I successfully persuaded Selena to return to the company.

We consulted with the doctor about her condition and paid for additional check- ups.noveldrama

Three days later, the results came in. Her health was fine, and her condition had stabilized.

After that, Selena called Zion to help with her discharge procedures and to escort her back to the company to reacquaint herself with the business.

Although Zion was upset, he had no choice but to comply with Selena's request. "Hudson, you had better keep your promises and manage everything well. Otherwise, I won't let you off easily," Zion warned me in private.

I shook my head, feeling indifferent toward his silly threats.

I went back to the company with Selena, though they didn't know who I was.

Years ago, in order to protect me, Selena had paid to have my information hidden from the public. Everyone only knew that she had a CEO husband working elsewhere but had no idea what I looked like.

Only a few people close to her knew my identity and appearance.

When Andy saw me, her eyes widened, but she gave me an approving nod when Selena announced her return.

Selena looked at the staff and then pointed at me, saying, "Let me introduce you to my new assistant, Hudson. From now on, any documents that need to be submitted to me should go directly through him."

Zion's eyes widened as he looked at me, but he could only keep quiet under Selena's determined gaze.

I hadn't expected this move from Selena. I had promised to help her with the issues at the company, but I never imagined she would create an official position for me.

Looking up, I noticed some employees glancing between me and Zion, looking confused.

Perhaps they thought that Selena had shifted her favor and replaced Zion with a new "favorite".

I followed Selena back to her office. Looking at me, she raised an eyebrow and asked, "What is it, Hudson? Are you unhappy with the assistant role?"
