The Day I Kissed An Older Man

The news of getting hired left Melody pleasantly surprised. However, Sherman's decision to entrust her with such a significant position caught her completely off-guard.

Even Melody was not entirely confident in her own abilities. After all, she had been stuck in the Sanders' residence for so long, and this left her somewhat out of touch with certain professional aspects.

"I've known you since high school, so I know your personality and capability very well. That's why I'm giving you this role because I believe you can handle it!" Sherman stated with a reassuring conviction. It felt like genuine trust rather than just words of encouragement.

Melody found herself growing a bit nervous under Sherman's appreciative gaze.

The immense trust placed in her made her doubt herself. "Sherman, I thank you for believing in me. If you're willing to hire me, just give me a simple role. I'd be more than happy if you do that. I've never worked before, and there's a lot I don't know. I'm afraid that if I take on the role of Advertising Director, I might mess up and disappoint you."

"Melody, I've seen you handle Wendy with confidence. Why doubt yourself now? Please have more faith in your abilities. You're truly outstanding!" Sherman encouraged her.

Melody's jaw dropped in surprise. "Sherman, you... You saw that?"
