CHAPTER 37: CHAPTER 37: INTERESTING

Director Irving’s eyes lit up when he looked at her, but after all, he’s been in the entertainment industry, he’s seen all kinds of people, like flattering types, many times. "Which ones have you watched?"

Melody Thorne had seen Director Irving’s works in her previous life, and knowing ahead of time she’d definitely encounter him at Ivy’s place, she looked up a lot of information on his works, speaking now with ease.

Unconsciously, Melody Thorne was already deeply engaged in conversation with Director Irving. Ivy watched them, stomping her feet in impatience. She had invited Irving here on behalf of her father, because she heard from her father that he would be selecting actors before they graduate from Axton, so she wanted to make a good impression. But who would have thought that in the end, all the attention would be stolen by Melody Thorne.

"Actually, Ivy and I grew up together," Melody Thorne said, effortlessly shifting the conversation to Ivy. "We are closer than sisters, right Ivy?"

Ivy’s expression was somewhat rigid, but she couldn’t say her relationship with Melody wasn’t good. If she did, and things turned sour between them, she wouldn’t have an excuse to visit Jared’s place anymore. "Yes... yes."

"Since that’s the case, you can call me Uncle Irving like this girl does," Director Irving, having just heard Melody talk about his films in such detail, couldn’t help his mood brightening. The most important thing was that Melody Thorne showed initiative.

If her acting is good, there could be opportunities for collaboration in the future."

Ivy "..."

Her face was extremely dark. Their relationship is not good, not good at all!

"This... isn’t it a bit awkward," Melody Thorne feigned shyness as she spoke.

"It’s no problem, just call me Uncle Irving from now on," Director Irving said decisively.

A glimmer of cunning crossed Melody Thorne’s eyes as she took a sip of cocktail, surely things went as she had anticipated today; it wasn’t a wasted trip.

Director Irving wasn’t like those lecherous directors; he was definitely a good patron in the directing world.

She turned around, planning to find a few people she knew from her previous life to lay the groundwork for after she receives her graduation certificate. Abruptly, she met a pair of eyes darker than deep ink,

The gaze seemed to penetrate her, intending to see through all the changes she’d experienced lately.

Melody Thorne steadied herself; she had indeed forgotten Jared was there too. If he wanted to see through her, well, let him.

From now on, she would live for herself; the entertainment industry was something she had to enter, and little Timmy was someone she needed to take away with her. All the things Ivy did to her in her last life, she would return one by one.

Melody Thorne withdrew her gaze and calmly walked in another direction, searching for her target.

"She actually overlooked us," Timothy Lockwood said, watching the woman who had already turned and walked away.

To be precise, she actually overlooked the powerful man beside him.

Jared Quinn’s gaze was always fixed on Melody Thorne, curling his lips with a wicked smile. This woman seems to be getting more and more interesting.

The former Melody Thorne was like a silly infatuated girl; now she seems to be full of life and spirit, even like a highly defensive little wildcat ready to bite at any moment.

Interesting.

Ivy stood not far away, she was constantly watching Jared, yet Jared was continually focused on Melody Thorne, utterly oblivious to her. Her hand signaled to a few sisters nearby, things were about to get interesting!
