She's put in a lot of effort, and I'm confident that given the right opportunity, she can truly shine as an actress."

"You're certainly very impressive, Miss Melody! Who would've thought that someone as delicate-looking as you could drink so much!" After finishing his drink, William returned to his initial spot and signaled for Melody to sit. "Alright, all the misunderstandings have been cleared up!
