Chapter 1958 Mabel was aware of how Melody's mother abused her trust many times. Back at college, Mabel had tried to help Melody several times, but it was all for naught.
"Everything's fine. I've moved out from home. Sorry to say, but that's why I asked you out today. I was wondering if you could doa favor..." said Melody embarrassedly.

However, when she needed help, the only person she could think of was this friend whom she rarely kept in touch with. As ashamed and awkward as she felt, she knew she had no choice.
"Nothing to be sorry about! What do you have in mind? I'll help if I can!" Mabel looped her arm with Melody and led her into the restaurant.
After they were seated in the restaurant, Melody passed the menu to Mabel and said, "Order whatever you like, Mabel. This meal is on me." Mabel thus ordered a few dishes that she wanted. "So, what is it that you wantto do for you, Melody?" Melody bit her lip lightly and said hesitantly, "Umm... I was wondering if you have any jobs for me. I need money now, so I really could use a job..." "A job, huh?" Mabel pondered for a while, then thought of something. "As a matter of fact, I do have a job for you! One of the companies my company is collaborating with is hiring. It's an advertising agency. I think you can apply for it since your educational background fits their requirements." Melody's eyes lit up. "Really? Do you really think so?" "Of course! You're very talented, Melody. You should be more confident about yourself!" Mabel took out her phone and sent a picture to Melody." There, I've just sent you the hiring details. Send your resto them, and I'll give the person in charge a call. If they find you suitable, they'll contact you for sure!" Melody glanced through the hiring details. Not only did she fulfill all their requirements, but the job also did not require any working experience. It seemed very promising indeed! "Mabel, you're my lucky star! If I'm hired, I'll buy you another meal. A super expensive one!" "Deal! I'll look forward to that super expensive meal! I bet you'll get hired by that company, then you'll becone of their most valued employees, and you're going to get rich! Don't you forget aboutthen, Melody." Melody laughed. "I sure won't." The two talked and laughed during their lunch. Then, they walked to the subway station together and bade each other goodbye before heading back to their respective homes.
When Melody arrived home, she turned on her computer and sent out her resto the advertising agency. After sending the resume, she could not help but worry.
Even though she fit all the job requirements, her reswas nothing impressive. A big advertising agency like that must have received countless job applications. They probably would not call her for an interview if they had better candidates. 'Dear God, please lethave this job. I promise I'll work hard!' prayed Melody silently.
