She was expressionless when she said that.

Her grandfather was a little stunned and then he nodded.

Finally, Melanie went home. After making something simple to eat, she went to her study with the documents.

When Xander called her, it was half past ten. Melanie was on her way to drink water.

So, she picked up. “Hello?”

It was noisy on Xander’s side. After a while, Xander asked, “Are you busy?”

Melanie went out to get some water. “What’s wrong?”

“I want to ask you if you’re free on the weekend. I’m going back to Jepton this weekend.” Xander’s tone was calm. “It’s about the proposal and I think you’re a part of this as well. So, if you’re not busy, you can come for the discussion too.‘

Of course, Melanie would not say no to such a chance. So, she asked, “Is there a collaboration in Jepton too?”

She knew Xander was a little well–known in the industry and he did not have a specific studio. Instead, he would accept work with his team of youngsters.

There were about seven to eight people in his team. Aside from his classmates, they were all his friends.

When Melanie found out, she was envious of how free they were.

“Yeah, it’s Stephen’s mother’s birthday. Also, there’s a pretty nice private exhibition here, so I want to check it out.” Xander’s voice was deep. He would enunciate his words clearly, so it sounded

comforting.

Compared to Stephen’s educated and well–balanced manner, Xander felt more reliable.

When Melanie went to the office the next day, everyone in the office was yawning.

She frowned and paused for a while. “How long did you work last night?”

Yana did not even put on her makeup. She said in exhaustion, “About 2 in the morning? However, I’m done with the work the export department gave

me.”

The five interns were also yawning, however, they still forced themselves to report their progress to Melanie.

They were much faster than Melanie expected. When she was about to say something, Yana tugged on her sleeve. “Melanie, did you forget that they’re going to pick the most outstanding employee of the quarter?”

LeapCo’s outstanding employees were divided into monthly, quarterly, and annually. Furthermore, their bonuses would be stacked on top of each other.

Melanie understood and said nothing.

However, the interns were still surrounding her. So, she raised her eyebrows slightly and asked, What else do you want?”

((

Cecelia was the one taking the lead again. She asked Melanie in a flattering manner, “Melanie, is there anything else you need our help with?”

Melanie looked at them, tapped on the desk with her fingers, and chose her words carefully “Don’t be nervous. The company will look at your usual performance. Just do your job seriously, and don’t worry about anything else.”

Yana was young and had a good relationship with these interns, so she reminded them with a playful smile, “Melanie has already told you everything, so what are you afraid of? Don’t worry!‘

However, as soon as she finished speaking, she heard a soft and weak voice, “Melanie, I’m here to submit my application.”

The laughter suddenly quieted down. So, Melanie looked up and saw Viola.

Melanie said without changing her expression, “Just put it on the table.”

Viola pursed her lips and put the application down. Then she glanced at the people in the office, frowned a little hesitantly, and then reminded Melanie in a subtle tone, “Melanie, the state of the secretary’s office doesn’t look that good. Don’t you think it’ll affect the company’s image if other companies see that?”

Her tone sounded like a leader coming down to inspect the work of her employees.
