"All right," Tyler said, beaming as he rose to his feet. He quickly fetched a script, flipping through it until he found

a scene for Melody. "Here, take a look at this, he said.

Lenora took it, her gaze fell on the script, and she began to read it carnestly.

This scene took place toward the end of the story. Melody, the female lead, was critically injured by the male

protagonist. On the brink of death, she engaged in a conversation with him, which revealed the origins of her

character.

The conversation cto an end, and Melody closed her eyes, reminiscing about the past.

Melody had a tragic experience during her childhood.

Born to a human and a fox, she entered the world in human form but with fox ears. Lost among humans. she was

scorned and driven away by the villagers, regarded as a monster. Wandering alone until she was about four or

five years old, she was finally taken in by a kind hearted old man.

The old man's household was impoverished and Melody was frail and skinny. She was often bullied and ridiculed

by her peers, with no one willing to befriend her.

After she was once bullied, she ran off to the edge of the pond, crying in frustration and sadness all by herself.

A girl of about the sage from the svillage approached her.

When she was being bullied by other children, the little girl didn't join in. Instead, she always watched from a

distance.

The little girl approached her, offering her a piece of cipdy. Melody was taken aback and grateful. From that

moment on, the little girl held a special place in her heart.

One day, a formidable assassin organization from the cultivation world suddenly descended, annihilating all the

villagers. They took away all the children, including Melody, and during the journey, they killed a

few disobedient kids. This terrified all the children, leaving them as scared as quails.

As they passed by a certain location, the individuals clad in black took a break within the woods. Melody and her

companions found themselves bound together, encircled by trees.

Suddenly, her fox-like ears twitched, keenly picking up on the distant sound of footsteps. She was born with

heightened senses, able to hear and see far beyond the capabilities of an average person. Melody suggested she

needed to use the restroom.

-If it were any other child, the assassins might have grown impatient, but Melody was different.

When the leader of the assassins first encountered Melody, he immediately recognized her potential. He was

determined to take her back and nurture her growth.

The assassins were rather tolerant toward Melody, they untied the ropes that bound her and escorted her to

relieve herself nearby.

While taking a quick break, Melody encountered a self proclaimed righteous person, a disciple from particular

sect who had cdown from the mountains to undergo training

Upon hearing the situation, the righteous individual planned to take Melody away. He was alone and couldn't

confront the assassins head-on, he needed to each out to his mentor for backup.

Melody declined, expressing her wish for the righteous ones to take the little girl away first, while she chose to

stay with the assassin.

She was useful to the assassins, making her relatively safer than the other children if she stayed.

If he couldn't make it in tand the assassins left, she could also devise a way to leave markers along their

path,

After sconsideration, the man agreed.

After Melody left, it was unclear what tactics she employed, but not much thad passed before the little girl

emerged.

The man had taken the little girl away. By the the and his fellow apprentices arrived, there was no trace of

the assassins or the children in the forest.

They searched around but didn't find any signs or marks.

Twenty years later, the demoness, Melody, mysteriously emerged.

She was ruthless and brutal, killing people with ease. Often, she found herself at odds with righteous characters.

Certain experiences from Melody's childhood did bear sresemblance to Lenora's.

The scene Lenora was set to perform was the dialogue between Melody and the male lead just before her death.

"Director Stone, I'm ready to begin. Let's give it a try."

"All right, you may begin." Tyler sat up straight, brimming with joy.

Lenora did not respond.

Summoning all her strength, Melody propped herself up and looked up at the man. "What is good? What is evil?

We both commit the sacts of violence, so why are you considered honorable and righteous. while we are

deemed deceitful and wicked, beyond redempBefore the onset of wickedness, when she still had a choice,

she was once kind-hearted.

Lenora opened her eyes, took a moment to collect herself, then rose from the ground. "Tyler, you see? I'm simply

not cut out for acting," she said.

her malevolence, and vice versa. Despite being the antagonist, the audience wouldn't hate her.

Surprised yet delighted, Tyler looked at Lenora. "Inappropriate? Not at all! You're the spitting image of Melody

herself!"

"No, Director Stone, please don't praiseinsincerely

"Am | really that kind of person? Everything I've said is true. Oh, Lenora, I've really found the right peron in you.

You're a natural-born actor. If you don't pursue this path, it would truly be a waste of your talent.

"Heh heh..." Lenora forced a smile. "Director Stone, what talent do | have"

"Don't be so modest. Even when you were just a stand-in. | knew you had potential. You were new to the

industry, yet you made fewer mistakes than those who'd been acting for years

"No, it's not...

Lenora found herself swayed by Tyler's words.

Tyler seized the moment. "Lenora, I'm really struggling to find an actor, and you're just perfect for the role. How

about giving it a try? Think about it, Susanna's mishap has something to do with you, doesn't ir You stepping in

for her role, isn't it just right?" What's so right about this?

Lenora hesitated. "I'm sorry. Director Stone, may | take stto think about it?"

"Absolutely, absolutely! You can take a couple of days to think it over. Coincidentally, Melody's scenes aren't

scheduled for the next two days."

Lenora-kept quiet at that

Judging from Tyler's demeanor, it seemed as if he was certain she would agree after giving it sthought

When Lenora returned home, there was a renovation going on upstairs.

She prepared lunch and took it to Harrietta

While taking the elevator. Lenora ran into a renovation worker from an upper floor.

She casually asked a couple of questions, to which the renovation guy replied, "It's already well-furnished. we're

just making a few tweaks here and there. It won't take more than a few days to finish."

Upon hearing this, Lenora was quite pleased.

By the end of the morning. Harrietta had gotten along quite well with her classmates.

Lenora sat with her on the edge of the flower bed, while Harrietta was narrating everything that had happened

at the kindergarten that morning, all the while nibbling on her food.

Once she finished eating. Lenora tidied up the lunch box and handed her another one. Inside were a few freshly

baked doughnuts she had made at noon. "You should get back to class soon. I'll pick you up after school," she

said.

When Harrietta returned to the classroom, her deskmate glanced outside a couple of times, curiosity piqued. He

then asked, "Harrietta, was that your mother who delivered your lunch?"

Harrietta paused, glanced out the window hesitantly, then gave a nod

His desk mate complimented with a smile, "Your mommy is truly beautiful!"

Harrietta took out her lunchbox and shared the doughnuts with her desk mate and the other classmates.

Her desk-mate took a bite of the doughnut. "Did your mom make this herself? It's delicious! Unlike my mom,

even a dog wouldn't eat her cooking."

A surge of pride welled up in Harrietta's heart. She puffed out her little chest and declared, "Of course, my

mommy is incredibly amazing!TM

"What does your mommy do for a living? Doesn't she have to work?"

"Mmm... My mommy is a photographer, she doesn't work a regular schedule. She once took a series of photos of
