Melody exuded a confident aura, standing there in her high heels.

Stella, who was usually assertive and commanding, felt uneasy in her presence and unconsciously took a step back.

Melody took the first strike. She smiled and said, "Miss Stella, what are you doing in a place like this? I heard you're scheduled to shoot your scenes this morning, right?" Melody seemed completely oblivious to Stella's unease.

Stella tucked her hair behind her ear nervously. "I... I just happened to pass by here, so I thought I'd take a look. Maybe it'll come in useful for the roles I'll be taking on in the future."

"What could possibly lead someone to casually pass by the police station? Are you here to visit someone?"

Melody wore a composed smile on her face, an expression that disgusted Stella. The more relaxed and self-satisfied Melody appeared, the more it fueled Stella's irritation.

"I'm an actress. Every experience could be useful to me, so what's wrong with me visiting the police station? Besides, why do you care where I go? In fact, I could ask the same about you! What are you doing here?" countered Stella.

'So what if this b*tch finds out I've come to the police station? I'm under no obligation to tell her what I'm doing here! I'm the current leading actress! What's a newcomer like her in comparison?' thought Stella. "I'm not as free as you, Miss Stella. I don't come to the police station for no reason. I really have some business here. My older sister did something foolish after being influenced by someone, so I've come to check on her and persuade her to come to her senses. After all, that's what every good sister would do."

"Is that so? Well then, go see your sister. My schedule is quite packed. I can't waste any more time here."

After saying that, Stella put on her sunglasses and walked away.

Melody's voice echoed behind her. "Miss Stella, there are some things I really must tell you. Now that you're a leading actress, you should mind your reputation. It's inevitable that people will try to dig up stuff about you.

"I believe you understand this principle better than I do. Some things can be salvaged if they happen, but once certain actions are taken, they're done. So don't do anything you don't want others to find out." Stella's face turned pale. It was obvious Melody was threatening her. However, Stella could not discern whether Melody already had evidence against her or if all of this was just speculative, an intentional probing.

Stella bit her lip, choosing to act as if she had not heard anything by quickly leaving the scene. She did not even dare to look back at Melody.

Melody's eyes darkened as she watched Stella leave. She knew she had not actively done anything to incur Stella's hatred. It was just that she happened to be Lucas' wife, and that was why Stella was so eager to get rid of her.

'If Lucas knew that Stella was behind my kidnapping, would he still be as angry as he was with Wendy?'

Melody did not dare to dwell on it. She looked up at the police station's door in a daze, wondering if Wendy regretted ever hiring those thugs to hurt her.

'Wendy wouldn't be locked up in the police station right now if it weren't for her misguided actions after being manipulated by Stella. Was it really worth it to risk ruining her own life to get rid of me?' Regardless, Melody knew their parents would likely take Wendy's side, and she had long grown used to such blatant favoritism.

'No. Wendy doesn't regret what she did to me. I bet she's hating the fact that I'm doing fine outside... Oh well, there's no harm in visiting her since I'm here,' thought Melody. sᴇaʀᴄh thᴇ (ꜰind)ɴʘvel.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
