Shaun sounded so sincere that Melody felt bad about turning down Shaun Tate''s offer. Still, she was firm in her stance. "I''m sorry, Mister Shaun, but I have no acting experience. To be honest, I''m quite bad at it. I''d hate to cause any problems for the movie."


    "Please don''t turn me down just that. Why don''t you listen to what we have to offer first?" Shaun tried to tempt her with the offer. "If you y the female lead, you''ll be paid three million dors. I''ll also arrange an assistant to take care of everything for you in the film set."


    Three million dors? That was just the amount Melody needed!


    She never expected that she could easily earn three million dors just by ying a role in a movie. She could pay off her debt if she took the role, and she would be debt-free!


    It was just a movie. No big deal, right? She could give it a try, and if it did not work for her, she could just quit.


    "Alright." After a long hesitation, Melody decided to give acting a shot for the sake of money. "But let me make it clear: I have no acting experience at all, so don''t me me if things end up badly."


    "Don''t worry, I have an eye for my leading roles. Besides, you''ll have me to guide you!" Shaun beamed with joy when Melody finally epted his offer. "So, Miss Melody, I''ll get Jelena to send you the time and address, so you cane over to sign the contract."


    "Okay. I''ll be there."


    Melody hung up the phone and started to worry about another problem. She agreed to take the job for the sake of three million dors, but how was she going to tell Lucas about it?


    Lucas never wanted her to get a job, let alone be an actress. Besides, what if someone found out that Missus Rivera took a role in a movie for the sake of money? There was no guarantee what they would say about the Rivera family then.


    Anyway, since she had agreed to take the offer, she must earn that money no matter what.


    To sweeten up the mood to break the news to Lucas, Melody decided to prepare a nice dinner herself. She asked the maids to take a break and went shopping at the supermarket nearby.


    After she finished cooking, she looked at the table full of delicious food and felt proud of herself. "Well, I may not be good at everything, but my cooking just keeps getting better!"


    She sat in the dining room and took out her phone. It was already 6:00 p.m., but there was still no sign of Lucasing back. Thus, she sent him a message.


    [Will you be home today?]


    Lucas replied shortly after her message was sent out. [I''m actually on my way home. Why?]? N?velDrama.Org - All rights reserved.


    [Nothing. Just asking.]


    Melody was d that he was on his way home. She put her phone aside and waited for him patiently in the dining hall.


    Half an hourter, Melody heard the sound of a car stopping outside the house. She happily ran to open the door and saw Lucas walking toward her. "Lucas, you''re finally home!" Melody was so excited that she waved at him.


    Lucas had never seen her so bright and cheerful before, so he asked curiously, "What''s the matter? Is there something you want to tell me?"
