Forgive My Ex-husband

"Everything is fine," Melinda answered as she deepened her doubts, and she wondered if this Victor was just a leader greeting his new subordinate kindly.

Anyway, this man didn't seem to have any relationship with such a serious thing.

"What are you in charge of now?" Noticing that Melinda gave a perfunctory reply, Victor felt that she was not like other new employees who was eager to praise his diligence and the company.

Jonas hadn't contacted him for a long time, and he called him just for asking him to take care of such a fussy person.

"Mr. Cheng, this is the planning department." Melinda reminded him vaguely. She thought, 'What else could the planning department do besides writing a plan and proposal?'

But she would occasionally help other colleagues analyze the articles and write comments, which was a relatively professional thing.

"I remember that you didn't majored in planning in your resume." Victor started to talk embarrassed again. After Melinda failed to figure out his mind, she briefly explained the reason why she had come to this department at that time.

Melinda had no idea why she wanted to be admitted to the planning department until now.

"Are you interested in transferring to another department? I've been quite interested in a literary work recently. Do you want to have a look?"

Before Melinda could answer, Victor took the laptop from aside and opened the literary work he liked to show it to her.

"This is it. Have a look and tell me how its value is." Victor turned the screen to Melinda, who was staring at the screen. It was a short paragraph with the content of around 30000 words, realistic. The words were not gorgeous but plain, but there were many life reasons in them.

Melinda slowed down and immersed in the work.

She thought carefully about the situation when the writer wrote this article, trying to reach a resonance with the words.

She watched it so intently that she didn't notice that Victor had his eyes fixed on her. He had his own opinions about this article, and he wanted to discuss it with others at this moment.

With this in mind, he put his hand on Melinda's shoulder. It seemed that he was holding her as holding his girlfriends.

Feeling that, Melinda's body froze and then she pushed away Victor's hand. Without taking a look at him, Victor touched his nose and felt embarrassed.

"Melinda, your attitude is very hurtful. I am at least a handsome man." Victor pretended to be hurt. Melinda finally looked away from the article.

"Mr. Cheng, the stories you read are self-beneficial, but you do not understand it enough." Melinda kept a proper distance from the man and moved her body with a faint smile.

Through his banter, Melinda realized that Victor was a bit dandiacal. She didn't care about what happened just now at all.

"Living in this world, isn't it a pastime? 90% of those well-behaved men are not handsome. It is easier to say that they are just the ordinary people, who struggle for life and then seek countless ways to motivate themselves,"

said Victor. At the moment, Melinda had a feeling that what he said was quite reasonable.

But, was this topic a little bit out of the way.

"Then, should I continue to read this article?"

Melinda asked very friendly, pointing at the laptop. But Victor felt that there was a sharpness behind Melinda's smile, which he couldn't understand.

"Yes, go on,"

said Victor. He knew better than anyone else that his words were nonsense.

However, he couldn't control himself and he got close to Melinda again, in order to talk with her as soon as possible. Melinda turned to look at him vigilantly and warned, "Mr. Cheng, I don't like to be so close to strangers."

All of a sudden, Victor felt that as a leader, he didn't look so dignified at all.

"Sorry, I'll keep it in my mind," Victor apologized sincerely, which made Melinda embarrassed to say too much. It would take some time to read the article carefully.

"It's a philosophical article," Melinda said her remark. She thought that this article was simple and unsophisticated, but it was also profound and philosophical.

Someone wouldn't be able to read it unless the writer added some notes to it.

"Oh, really? I find this kind of articles quite novel." Hearing what Melinda said, Victor felt excited. It seemed that she was not as useless as he thought.

"Mr. Cheng, please allow me to tell you one thing. I don't know where you found this article, but I want to tell you that your so-called novel work is a little common on the Internet." Melinda made a sharp comment with a little disappointment. Maybe it was a unique work of the two schools as they mixed together, but it didn't go well.

If the writer continued to write it based on the style in the beginning, Melinda would agree with it. But later, in order to show his appreciation, the writer destroyed the whole article. "Ah." It was a little embarrassing for Victor to hear such a sarcastic remark. He hadn't recovered from the sudden change of Melinda's attitude.

The word "common" was really an artistic sarcasm.

"Well, I'd like to do a summary of the comments and the places that I think improved... Of course, these are my personal views. Maybe, some people prefer this kind of mixing." Melinda felt that the literary research she was doing would not be equal to the authority or something, and she felt that her work was very common.

And it made Melinda feel that this style might not be the style people liked.

Those ordinary people didn't like the profound words, but somehow the researchers thought the shallow work was worthless.

When Victor heard the last sentence, his eyes twitched. He completely believed that it was him that Melinda said that.

However, after listening to her opinion, he felt that it was quite reasonable.

"You are really talented in this respect. I think it would be more appropriate for you to go to the editing department, write an article and make comments."

Victor thought that Melinda was really talented in the sector. She could not show her talent in the planning department and could fully display her competence in this field.

It didn't mean that the planning department was not good, but that Melinda was more suitable for editing department. What's more, his company's planning department was really idle. They worked hard occasionally, because many activities were reference from the past years.

"What?" With a curious look on her face, Melinda looked at Victor. She had observed the article and talked her insights of the article for quite a long time, and all of them had been done in order to transfer the departments?

Wasn't that could be directly decided by the superior? Obviously, Victor was different from ordinary people.

"Go and have a try," Victor encouraged. He thought that Melinda was hesitating, but he thought that she could be of great potential.

He also read the article of Melinda before, thinking that if he let her worked in the editing department, she might make the company more famous in the industry.

The simple conversation ended up with the removal of a department, where Victor had the right to do that.

Victor didn't have much requirements for Melinda. According to the company's requirements, the writers should submit three manuscripts a month, all of which were topic requirements.

With that, Melinda went through the whole draft. The appearance of Melinda made the writers painful for a long time. The new editor was hard on them.

So what? They had no choice but to modify the article.

Melinda was strict with others and herself. What she hated most was to see some ambiguous articles, though it was the most popular.

Victor listened to the people in the editing department talking about Melinda. Then he remembered how he was taunted that day.

People like Melinda respected the literature, so they wanted to get rigorous reports and articles.

The topic offered by the company was quite professional. There had been a change in Melinda's company-home-route life. She often went to the library to borrow books or buy books. Her study was packed with books.

"It's okay."

Kent replied to Melinda on wechat. The novel, with only ten thousand words, had cost her more than half a month.

Melinda was at the beginning to try at writing this kind of novel, so she still felt a bit raw. She often asked Kent for help. She had to write three novels a month, it was difficult for her to even write two.

"I don't think I am capable to do this work." Melinda was relieved, and then sent the document to the editor in chief for review.

"You should take some time to get used to it. You've already done a good job. There are many writers in my periodical office. It takes them several months to get used to it,"

Kent comforted her. The journal article was not the same as the online ones, which was enough as long as one had some writing skills to write and could satisfy the fans.

"Okay, I will take a rest to relax my mind." Melinda had received a positive expression from the editor in chief when she was replying to Kent. She took a glass of water to drink, but she almost choked the next second.

"Sir, are you serious???" To express her astonishment, Melinda gave three question marks in a row.

It was really shocking. The editor in chief was about to contact another magazine and release her article on a national magazine.

So the gold content was different.

"Just have a try. I don't know if I can make it or not." The editor in chief replied with a smile again. Melinda no longer knew how to express her feelings. At last, she agreed.

That was a great honor for any writer.

After having a try, Melinda's article was selected. The other side was very interested in Melinda and wanted to have a long-term cooperation with her.

Victor sent his congratulations as soon as he got the news. He was proud of himself that he found her talent.

The editor in chief also hoped to cooperate with the other party, and Melinda was the bridge. At last, the three groups reached a cooperation of the three manuscripts in two months.

Melinda felt that with such quality and intensity, she could not write three articles a month. Writing three articles in two month was actually hard too.

Now she could understand the feeling of those writers whose article was driven back by her.
