Hard To Say Goodbye novel Chapter 2

The weather in Beijing wasn't constant. It was snowing heavily yesterday. And today, the sun was shining.

When Nora got up, she saw that Grace had already prepared breakfast. Nora took out the milk powder from her backpack. Testing the temperature of her warm water, she quickly fixed up a bottle of milk and fed it to Hugh.

Grace watched her prepare everything smoothly in a few minutes. "You look like a mother," she said before pausing. "I don't know if it's a blessing or a curse." Nora winked.

"There's no need to mention such things in front of the child. Fortunately, he had given me the courage to face these things."

Seeing the state she was in, Grace stood up and turned away. At last, she paused at the door and sighed. "I'm going to work. You and Hugh could live here now. No worries." Without another word, she left in her heels.

The rental house covered an area of less than a hundred and fifty square meters, but more than half of the space was filled with clutter. The damp air made Nora shiver.

She had absolutely no time to waste. With Hugh's milk powder and their living expenses, she needed to start picking herself up – even if not for herself, then for Hugh.

Thinking of this, Nora turned on Grace's computer and submitted her resume to many part-time platforms. From what she could see, there were many people who had already applied. They all came from average universities. Nora had no advantage given that she didn't have any work experience.

However, she wasn't going to give up easily. After sending her resume to different companies, she turned around and noticed that Hugh had already fallen asleep.

Nora rubbed her hands and placed them on Hugh's face. A smile threaded across her lips.

Two years ago, when she had just graduated from college, she had so many opportunities to get started. However, she waved them all off because of the baby she was about to have. After giving birth to Hugh, she fell into a wave of depression for a year.

Her mother's words hit close to home. Nora still remembered what she had said, "You really are a cheap bitch!"

Nora sighed. Where had she gone wrong?

A notice came from her e-mail. Nora quickly opened it and found an advertisement. She was about to delete it when she saw a recruitment notice.

"Daniel's Agency..." she mumbled as she scanned the article. The agency was looking for an assistant!

However, as she read it, she couldn't help but furrow her eyebrows. The Daniel's Agency was incredibly famous. It was the home of many superstars.
