Love That Wasn't Meant to Last novel Chapter 84

After work, I returned home with Selena. Since she insisted on others supporting her project, she took charge of the preparations.

As her assistant, I was responsible for doing basic market research and contacting the partner company. While it seemed straightforward, it was much more challenging than expected. Having been away from work for over a month, the sudden intensity was overwhelming for me.

As I reclined on the couch, Selena headed upstairs to take a shower. Before long, Sylvia called me while I was dozing off. "Hudson, I'm glad you finally answered. I thought you didn't want to talk to me anymore. I called multiple times, but you didn't pick up at all."

After Sylvia mentioned this, I realized she had indeed called me several times. Since I was at work, my phone was on silent, and I only noticed her call when the screen lit up. "I just got off work. I missed your call because my phone was on silent. I'm sorry. Please don't be upset."

Sylvia snorted. Then, she happily shared her experiences from today. I enjoyed her animated storytelling, but the unexpected arrival of Selena dimmed the mood.

I was taken aback when Selena suddenly appeared before me. Realizing there was still some distance between us, I swiftly ended the call. She stood there, her hair damp.

I frowned and quickly messaged Sylvia. "There's a meeting I need to attend. Go to bed early."

"Selena, why are you here suddenly?" I asked after setting my phone aside.

"Hud, do you believe I'll be successful in this project?" Selena inquired as she gazed up at me.

However, the small company Selena was partnering with this time seemed unpredictable. Seeing her enthusiasm, I felt I couldn't turn her down.

"This isn't the end, so I won't rush to any conclusions just yet. But I believe in you. If you stay dedicated and put in the hard work, the results will follow in due time."
