The Day I Kissed An Older Man

Melody nodded and turned to Lucas, politely greeting him, "Hello, Mister Lucas. Nice to meet you."
'Well, it seems she genuinely intends to act as if she doesn't know me at all,' thought Lucas with a resigned sigh.
"Hello, Miss Melody."
'Since she doesn't want to reveal our relationship in public, I'll play along with her to see how long she can keep it up,' thought Lucas. After all, Shaun already knew Melody was his wife, and he promised to take good care of her on the set, so he already achieved his purpose in making the trip.
"Hope you don't mind me calling you just Melody from now on. It's easier that way," Shaun said, leading Melody to the contract laid out on the table and asking her to sit. "I personally oversaw this contract, so you can rest assured that all the promises made to you are written here in black and white.
Melody could tell that Shaun truly wanted her to play the female lead in 'War Song'. The contract was very detailed, incorporating all the verbal promises Shaun made to her earlier into its clauses. With the terms written into the contract, it also gained legal effectiveness.
"Umm... Is it a breach of contract if my performance doesn't meet your expectations?" Melody was there to make money through acting, and she was worried that she would end up losing money.
Shaun flipped to the second-to-last page of the contract. "It's written here. It won't be considered a breach of contract on your part."
"Okay, then. I'll sign the contract." Melody picked up the pen, but her gaze unconsciously turned to Lucas. She never signed a contract, but Lucas had.
Noticing her glance, Lucas understood that she was asking if it was okay for her to sign. He nodded in approval.
With Lucas' consent, Melody smiled and signed her name on the contract.
Stella had been waiting at the door for a long time without seeing Melody come out. In addition, her agent had already hurried her once, so she could not wait any longer. She headed toward Shaun's office. "Miss Stella, Mister Shaun is still with a guest, so I'm afraid you can't go in." Seeing her about to barge in, the assistant quickly stepped forward to stop her.
Stella had never suffered such injustice, and her face immediately darkened. "I've been waiting outside for a long time, and I have other appointments. I just need to talk to Mister Shaun for a few minutes." Without heeding the assistant's obstruction, Stella pushed open the office door and walked in.
As she walked in, she happened to see Melody sitting there signing a contract. The distance was a bit far, so she could not make out what exactly was written on the contract. "Stella, what brings you here?" Shaun was somewhat surprised to see Stella.
She had indeed expressed her desire to play the female lead in 'War Song' before. However, her image was too mature and not suitable for the female lead's lively and energetic image, so Shaun turned her down.

"It's about 'War Song'. I have some thoughts I'd like to discuss with you." Stella smiled, then turned to look at Melody."Miss Melody, didn't you say you came here for a job?
