I didn''t say anything and only sighed helplessly.


    Fine, I would be her assistant. I would be working with her after all.


    Selena arranged a dedicated office for me. It was close to Zion''s. Every time I looked up, I could see him.


    When I entered, the anger on Zion''s face was evident.


    When I went to the men''s restroom, Zion followed me. After ensuring that no one else was around, he walked up to me.


    "Hudson, is this what you meant by handling things? Bing Selena''s assistant, taking my ce, making me aughingstock at thepany? So that you can rekindle your rtionship with Selena and eventually marry her again?"


    "Your n is incredibly meticulous. Did you forget that you have a girlfriend about to start her new job here in Adenville? You are clinging to your ex-wife and maintaining an ambiguous rtionship with her.


    What do you take your girlfriend for? You might as well break up with her."


    I didn''t expect Zion to bring up Sylvia.


    Whenever I thought of Sylvia, I felt a sense of inexplicable sadness.


    We hadn''t really talked at all since thest argument.


    I was so caught up with everything rted to Selena that I hadn''t taken the time to think about how to approach Sylvia and mend things, so I hadn''t called her.


    Zion''s reminder made me pull out my phone to check.


    Over the past week, Sylvia hadn''t called me. She hadn''t sent any messages either.


    Was she still angry?


    "Now that things with Selena were rtively under control, shouldn''t we think about how to resolve this situation with my girlfriend?"


    "What''s there to resolve with your girlfriend?" Zion looked puzzled but he quickly pieced it together. Then, he came riled up.


    "Wait, Hudson, you still haven''t convinced her to return to Carzonia? Is she really going to work here?"


    Hearing the agitation in his voice, I sighed again.


    "She insists oning, and I can''t stop her. I need to see her in the next couple of days. Help me figure out how to deal with her."


    I had to see Sylvia soon. If I waited any longer, our rtionship would probably fade with time.


    Her term started next month, and there was still half a month before then. I couldn''t let this situation drag on for that long. The longer the silence was, the weaker the rtionship would be.


    Hearing my words, Zion rolled his eyes and gave me a lousy suggestion.


    "If it were up to me, I would say you should break up with her. I''ll introduce you to someone better."


    "Why don''t you just leave Selena then? If you left her, you wouldn''t have so many troubles. You wouldn''t have to bow and beg or even deal with me..."


    "Shut up!"


    I smirked at Zion''s exasperated expression.


    He always got flustered when it came to Selena. It seemed he truly cared for her.


    But why didn''t Selena like him back? Was it really because of me?


    Zion proposed many solutions, but I rejected them all.
