Chapter 2017 "Thanks for your kind words, but I still don't know what kind of job you're still planning to pursue." Stella's eyes held a hint of disdain. In her view, Melody-who had to find a job to support herself-posed no threat to her.

Melody lowered her head, feeling a bit uneasy. "I...haven't really decided. I just want to find something that suits me." "Oh, I see." Stella walked a few steps thoughtfully, then stopped in front of Melody. "How about this? Since Mister Shaun and I are old acquaintances, I can put in sgood words for you and ask him to arrange a job for you when I see him later.

For sreason, even though Stella was offering her help with a smile, Melody could not help but find her intimidating. She had a feeling that Stella was not as benign and simple as she appeared on the surface. She felt that Stella's thoughts were not something she could easily fathom.

"How about a clerical job?" offered Stella after pondering for a while. "It's an easy job, and the pay isn't bad. I'll talk to Mister Shaun about it later." It was only then Melody realized that Stella was oblivious to others' feelings, persistently trying to convey what she considered goodwill regardless of others' wishes.

However, Melody did not need her goodwill, and she even found it rather annoying.

"That won't be necessary, Miss Stella. Really. I can find a job on my own." Stella's expression soured at being turned down the second time. Despite her good intentions in helping Melody find a job and considering whether the work would be easy, Melody remained unappreciative.

Both of them fell into a moment of silence when a woman emerged from the director's office, smiling as she approached them. "Miss Melody, Mister Shaun is waiting for you inside." "You know Melody?" Stella was somewhat surprised. The woman was Shaun's most capable assistant, typically the point of contact for those seeking acting opportunities. She thought Melody was just an ordinary job applicant, so she did not expect her to know Shaun's assistant.

"Of course. Miss Melody is a guest specially invited by Mister Shaun. Miss Stella, Mister Shaun currently has other guests inside, so I'd appreciate it if you could wait outside for a while." Despite the assistant's cordial tone, Stella's expression gradually darkened.

After all, she was a major star in the entertainment industry, yet she had to wait outside. Melody, an ordinary guest, becthe honored one. It was a great insult to her.

Stella's face darkened for a moment, but she quickly squeezed out a gracious smile. "So, Melody is also a guest of Mister Shaun. Since she arrived first, I'll wait outside for a while." "Very well." The assistant smiled and ushered Melody inside. "Mister Shaun has been waiting for quite a while. Miss Melody, please cwith me." Following the assistant to Shaun's office, Melody opened the door and was surprised to find Lucas inside.

What's going on?' Melody almost thought she was imagining things.

She wanted to ask him how he ended ve up here but she then thought about Stella, who was waiting outside. A tinge of sadness unconsciously crept into her heart.

He was indeed considerate toward Stella, willing to accompany her here to discuss the contract. Given the ontract situation, it seemed he was not aware that Melody was signing up for the smovie as well. As a contract spouse, she should not expose her relationship with Lucas at that moment. Despite feeling uneasy, Melody greeted Shaun with a smile, "Hello, Mister Shaun. I'm Melody."

Shaun's eyes sparkled when he saw her. "Miss Melody, you've finallym arrived! I've put so much effort into selecting the female lead for this movie, and I've finally found her." X
