Melody suddenly smiled. "I'm glad to hear that. You have my word that I'll portray my character well so as not to give any opportunity to those with ulterior motives." Stella, pretending to be calm, nodded. "That's the spirit! Oh, I almost forgot, my agent needs to talk to me about something. Gotta run. Bye."

She did not even wait for Melody's response before fleeing with her tail between her legs, a far cry from the confident manner in which she distributed breakfast earlier. Melody scoffed coldly. 'She's not definitely not as nice as she makes herself out to be!'

Stella looked around nervously once she was out of Melody's sight.

'This can't be! How is she here looking completely fine? Don't tell me she's so mentally strong that she's able to act as if nothing happened even after being violated by others?' Stella anxiously bit her nails.

'Maybe it's not really that impossible... After all, didn't that despicable woman use some underhanded tactics to bind Lucas to her side?'

"D*mn it! How can that despicable woman be so lucky?"

Stella was in a state of full-blown panic. She needed to confirm with Wendy what exactly happened.

She underestimated Melody. How could Wendy-a woman who was quick to anger-be a match for the scheming Melody?

She could not believe that she was confident that Wendy could get rid of Melody. Well, that was what she got for being surprised to see Melody appear completely unscathed on the set. "That girl is useless! No wonder she can't make it big!"

Stella found a secluded corner and dialed Wendy's number.

She had saved her phone number that day after Wendy insisted. Otherwise, she would not know how to contact her.

"Hello? Is this Wendy?" Stella asked excitedly. To her surprise, she heard an extremely calm voice on the other end.

"Hello, this is the police station. The owner of this phone has committed a crime and is currently cooperating with the police in gathering evidence. May I ask what relationship you have with the owner of this phone? Do you know what she's been up to recently?"

Stella was so scared that she hung up the phone, leaving the police officer on the other end looking at the phone with a puzzled expression.

'Has this lady dialed the wrong number?' he wondered.

'Oh my god, Wendy had been arrested by the police! What should I do? What if that woman tells them I approached her? Lucas is going to hate me if Wendy implicates me! Even Melody wouldn't spare me then, not to mention Lucas' grandparents! What should I do? What should I do? I must find a way to make sure Wendy keeps her mouth shut!'

Stella was extremely anxious. Her priority was to meet with the foolish Wendy.

Everything was falling apart, and she had inadvertently put herself in a situation where she might be thrown into jail herself!

She picked up her bag and hurriedly ran to find the production crew with the intention of asking for half a day off.

"Miss Stella, is something wrong? You're sweating buckets!" asked a concerned crew member. Sᴇaʀ*ᴄh the Findɴovel.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
