Chapter 254 Turning The Novel Into Teleplay
Chapter 254 Turning The Novel Into Teleplay
Melinda shrank and felt a little cold. She opened her eyes in a daze and found herself sleeping on the
sofa.
She was only holding a pillow with no quilt cover on her body. The sofa was so small that she felt
uncomfortable to lie on it.
She could not help but think of Jonas. He must be very aggrieved lying on it.
She couldn't help but smile. When thinking about a person then she have a good mood, she had that
kind of feeling only when she was with Jonas.
"Is he going to make a proposal today?"
Melinda murmured. It was inevitable for her to regret. She sat up straight and took the ginger tea on the
tea table to the kitchen to clean it up. She was staring at the wall, hesitating.
'How is auntie Yao now, and Jonas?'
The mobile phone rang at this quiet night, which was very obvious. Melinda was a little excited to take
out the phone. When she saw a strange number on the screen, she disappointed.
After hesitating for a while, she answered. "hello?"
"Hello, is that Miss Mo?"
The man on the other end of the phone was a bit of some rough voice of a man He asked with doubt,
but was sure that the she was the one he was looking for.
Though skeptical, she answered politely, "I am. May I ask who you are?"
It sounded that the man was at the same age as her father. She guessed that the man was her father's
friend. But what he was going to say next let her fall into shock.
"Oh, I forgot to introduce myself. My name is Elmer Lin, a director." He was modest and just told
Melinda his profession.
People who worked in the entertainment circle knew what the name meant. Though Melinda worked in
the circle of writing all the year round, she heard him a lot.
His teleplay was quite popular, and Melinda was expecting her novel become popular which can be
turned into teleplay one day and cooperate with such a famous director.
This moment he call her was like a wonderful dream coming true, which made Melinda excited.
"Director Lin, I really like watching your TV series." Melinda was surprised, but she also thought that
whether the man was a liar. She was alert about the man since there were those kinds of people
nowadays.
But was her novel worth fooling?
She felt that her brain was not working well after her pregnancy.
"Really? I wonder if you'd like to cooperate with me?" Instead of being arrogant, he asked again in a
calm tone.
After thinking for a few seconds, Melinda replied carefully. "It cannot be talked clearly on the phone.
How about we find a time to talk face to face?"
She had heard that he was also a local in A City. She believed that he would agree with her as long as
he didn't cheat her.
"Okay," he agreed readily. He was very busy, so the date was set in two days later.
After hanging up the phone, Melinda still could not calm down for a long time. She checked the call log
from time to time, worrying if she was dreaming.
"Am I dreaming?" Thinking of this, she tilted her head and put her finger on her thigh. Biting her teeth
and giving herself a pinch, she cried out in pain, "ouch, it seems not a dream."
She couldn't wait to share the news with Jonas. Without hesitation, she called him directly.
In the hospital, Jonas was staying at Queena's room. He was still busy with his business at such a
time. He took a look at Queena in the bed, and saw her sleeping soundly. He went to the balcony to
answer the phone.
"Linda."
He said with a gentle smile, which made her heart throb.
"Jonas, how's aunt Yao? I'm sorry that I'm not feeling well and can't be with you."
Hearing what she said in succession, the smile at the corners of Jonas's mouth widened a little, and his
tiredness seemed to disappear at this moment.
"I'm fine. As for you, remember taking care of yourself and our baby since I was not with you."
The baby in her womb got hurt today, so Jonas almost wanted to take her to the hospital for
examination, but his mother's situation was more critical, so he didn't have much time to make a
choice.
Fortunately, his Linda was a kind and considerate girl.
"Well, by the way, I have good news to tell you."
Said Melinda mysteriously. As he laughed and frowned, 'It must be that man who took action.' Then he
thought.
"What good news?" Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.
"I got a call from director Lin just now. He said that he would turn my novel into a TV drama. Isn't it
great?"
She was in high spirits. Her fingers held the phone tightly and her eyes were bright and beautiful.
"This is the only good news today." Jonas said in a playful manner. He was not going to let go of things
of today.
On the contrary, Melinda was a little nervous. "I don't think my novel is very popular, how can it attract
his attention? Is he a liar?"
"Send me his phone number. I'll ask Ted to find a private detective to check it for you." Said Jonas.
Hearing that, she felt relieved. It felt good to have him by her side.
"What a smart Ted!"
She said with emotion. She felt that after Ted was promoted by Jonas, she had been living a hard life
and should be responsible for everything.
Jonas smiled and didn't say anything. That was what Ted had to deal with as his personal assistant.
William, on the other hand, had much more free time than before. He was supposed to be in charge of
this in the past.
They talked for a long time, and Melinda couldn't help falling asleep in her bed. Hearing the shallow
breathing sound from the other side of the phone, Jonas's heart couldn't help but soften a little.
The next morning, Melinda woke up and went to the hospital to visit Queena. Gu family had already
been arranged to take care of her. She looked still a little tired, so she smiled reluctantly when she saw
Melinda.
"You two don't need to stay here with me. Go and do your own business. Mellie, Jonas told me that you
had a bad mood yesterday and had better have a good rest at home. Don't go anywhere, okay?"
Queena was very concerned about the baby in Melinda's belly. Melinda said yes obediently, so that
Queena wouldn't worry about it.
The smell of the hospital was not good. Jonas took Melinda away soon and told her that Ted had done
a secluded investigation. It was Elmer who called her yesterday.
"Jonas, I have an appointment with Director Lin tomorrow. I want to buy some clothes in the mall."
Melinda said, tugging at her loose clothes. Ever since she got pregnant, her clothes had been more
loose and simple.
It was an important occasion, so the dress for her was a little too casual. She didn't want to leave a bad
impression before the contract was concluded.
"I'll go with you." Jonas helped Melinda get into the car, and then he sat in the back seat. He was a little
tired because he hadn't had a good rest the whole night.
Melinda who sitting in the car was his the most important baby and he must avoid any danger.
He asked the driver to the most bustling shopping mall in a city. People who came to shop here had
membership cards, which meant they were either rich or noble. Only a few designated floors with a S-
level membership card could be entered.
If it was in the past, Melinda might not like this kind of place. But now the situation was different. She
did not refuse him.
Led by Jonas, she arrived at a fancy clothing store.
"Can we find an appropriate dress for tomorrow's appointment?" Seeing someone coming up to
measure the sizes, she said in a hurry.
"It doesn't matter. Let's make some casual clothes first. We'll pick a finished one later."
The stuff in the store were handmade. The cloth was soft, and the design style was simple but elegant.
Hearing this, Melinda showed no objection and obeyed him obediently. In the end, it was Jonas that
picked everything and ordered several clothes.
Melinda liked everything Jonas chose, no matter the clothes or the jewelry she would bring at that time,
Melinda was blindly convinced that. Jonas could match all the stuff.
Melinda was so relaxed that she even thought it was time for all these things to be done by Jonas.
"I find that you are an expert. You are awesome." "It's good that you buy it.".
Glancing at her, he stopped and came closer to her. It was clear that what he wanted.
Her fingers were twisted together. Looking around, she quickly pecked a kiss on his cheek and then
quickly ran away.
However, after she just ran two steps, she held her belly and slowed down.
She was pregnant now, so she couldn't run wild at will! She whined in her heart, but felt very sweet.
After sending Jonas home, Jonas went back to the company to deal with some business. When he left,
Melinda was reading a novel and wanted to modify some shortcomings. However, it was already past
ten o'clock when he came back from his social engagement. She was still working hard to modify
something in front of the computer.
Her eyes were starting to be red. Seeing this, Jonas was so angry at once, but finally he controlled
himself.
"It hasn't been changed yet?" He greeted her gently at first. Melinda glanced at him and nodded
perfunctorily, her eyes still staring at the computer all the time.
Anger smoldered in Jonas's heart, but he also warned himself that he couldn't be rude to a pregnant
woman. He needed to solve this in a peaceful way.
'I should be patient with my wife.'
"Linda, it's getting late. You should go to bed early for the sake of the baby." As Jonas said about the
baby in her belly, Melinda still nodded perfunctorily. He didn't give up. "And you see, the computer is
radiation all day long. You have been sitting there all day."
There was no other sports today besides going shopping, which was really inappropriate.
"I'll do another check. That's enough."
She felt that the letters in front of her began to fight and she became tired as she stared at them for
such a long time.
