Chapter 556
Hudson had already caught on to the main point. When he heard that Chloe was moving out, he could not hide his anxiousness. "Did she say she's moving out? When is she moving out?"
Hudson almost jumped off the couch, but Lucy reassured him, "Mr. Xender, calm down. Chloe has just decided to move out, and she has already packed her things. The landlady hasn't been treating her well, so I think it's good for her to be moving out too. "But she told me she's been struggling financially and needs a stable job, so I advised her to stay for now. She agreed not to leave right away and to choose a nice place to settle down once she finds a stable job."
Relieved, Hudson took a deep breath. "That's good... That's good..."
He muttered quietly, but the paleness on his face remained.
"I'm sorry for not resolving things with Chloe for you, but I wish to respect her decision as well. That's why I came to explain."
Lucy was actually being very gentle. If someone else were in her shoes, they would have said that Hudson deserved it.
Coincidentally, Hudson felt that way too. He thought that Chloe was punishing him, and he deserved it as there was no one else to blame but himself.
Although Lucy claimed she had not done much to help, Hudson knew deep down that she had tried her best.
"No... I still have to thank you. Chloe wouldn't have told me these things herself after meeting me, and I would still be in the dark, not knowing what her true feelings were. I definitely wouldn't have come to know all the things she has done for me." It was good that Hudson understood that now, but Lucy felt that he had understood it a bit too late.
After the conversation ended, Lucy was about to leave when Hudson stopped her.

"Oh, by the way, since you've helped me out so much today, I have good news for you: Your design proposal has been approved. Over the next month and a half, you'll need to design the flagship outfit for the brand, as well as other collections for the four seasons based on the design concepts that were approved."
"Mr. Xender, you don't have to repay me for helping you today. I think it's better to decide after seeing the quality of the proposal and the actual work!"
"This isn't just up to me. You didn't just get my approval but many others as well. Koven said the same. He believes that you're a great fit for our company's chief designer."
"Really?"
"Koven's word is as good as gold, and he never messes around. You should know that by now since you've known him for some time."
Koven might joke around sometimes, but when it came to professional matters, he never took anything lightly. It seemed like Hudson was being serious.
"Mr. Xender, please help thank Koven for me."
"You see Koven every day, so why ask me to thank him?"
"It's different! I didn't know about your relationship with Koven before, and he didn't intend to tell me either."
"Well, now you know."
After Lucy left Hudson's company, Hudson slumped into his chair despondently.
He did not want to reveal his true emotions in front of others, but he could no longer hold himself up.
