Stella's excuse seemed forced and feeble.

Who would randomly and accidentally drop such an outfit into her bag? Not to mention, the bag was clearly closed just a moment ago.

Furthermore, her bag had been under the watchful eye of her assistant, making it impossible for someone to casually toss something into it without her notice.

Stella immediately shifted the blame onto her young assistant who had just come out of the restroom, saying, "Where were you? Didn't I tell you to keep an eye on my bag? Someone put things in my bag, and you didn't notice at all? How can you be so careless? Are your eyes just for show?"

The young assistant looked upset and somewhat aggrieved, wondering what he had done wrong. The bag had clearly not been tampered with.

"Miss Stella, I've been right here watching your bag. I only went to the restroom for two minutes, and no one touched your bag, let alone stuffed that outfit in it! Might there be a possibility that you packed your own clothes into your bag?"

The young assistant voiced what everyone was thinking as that seemed to be the only plausible explanation.

"Did you hear that? It might be Miss Stella in the surveillance footage after all... Goodness, you never know someone's true intentions! I wonder what Melody and Miss Tracy did to offend her so much that she's actively hurting them!"

"What's there to wonder about? She's probably afraid that they'd surpass her and lose her status as the leading actress. Tsk! She's quite the actress. She even pretended to speak up for Miss Melody! In reality she not only went after Miss Tracy but also framed Miss Melody!"

Just 10 minutes ago, the same group of people condescendingly accused Melody, and Stella was portrayed as a perfect angel in their eyes.

10 minutes later, the tables had turned. One by one, they redirected their accusations toward Stella, who became the prime suspect in their eyes.

Stella stood frozen in place, her body tense. She could not bear to think about how Lucas would react to those words.

During their earlier meal, she had enthusiastically shared the story about Melody with him. Back then, Melody was the genuine suspect. However, with the shift in circumstances, Stella became the prime suspect.

'Oh, no! What would Lucas think of me now?' she thought with panic.

The situation had taken a turn for the worse. The crew members were notably opportunistic, and as soon as they sensed a change in the situation, they immediately trampled on Stella.

The woman with glasses also panicked. The outfit that fell out of Miss Stella's bag was indeed identical to the one Melody wore in the surveillance footage.

She had just been passionately detailing how bad Melody was, but with the situation changed, she nervously asked Stella, "Miss Stella, how did this outfit end up in your bag? Is someone trying to frame you?" Her implications were quite clear. She was determined to divert the blame onto Melody. Otherwise, she would not be able to save herself.

Melody coldly observed the crew members.

Previously, they had criticized Melody relentlessly, and then they shifted the blame to Stella without a second thought. They seemed more like an opportunistic pack of sheep than anything else.

"Yes! You're right. Someone must be framing me! Otherwise, how could this outfit suddenly appear in my bag? I didn't put any clothes in my bag when I left home this morning. Think about it, if I were the suspect, why would I put the same outfit into my bag like this?"
