"Miss Stella, you're under arrest for suspected malicious intent and intentional harm. Please come with us."

Stella was bewildered. She had not expected Lucas to be so ruthless by calling in the police. It seemed like they had been waiting in an undisclosed location for the right moment to act.

"Let go of me! What do you think you are doing? How dare you handcuff me! I haven't done anything. Why are you arresting me? The real culprit is that woman! It's Melody! Sᴇaʀch Thᴇ (ꜰind)ɴʘvel.nᴇt website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

Lucas watched indifferently as the police led Stella away. They gradually disappeared into the distance.

Stella tried to break free, but she was no match in terms of strength with the professionally trained police officers.

The others were stunned. They did not expect that Lucas would take such decisive action and call the police.

They thought that this matter would be handled internally within the film crew. After all, Lucas was also one of the investors in the movie, so it would not be beneficial for him if the incident became public. "Did you hear what the police officer just said? They suspect Stella is involved in an intentional harm case!"

Many covered their mouths, fear of Lucas visible in their eyes.

"Does this mean the police already have evidence against Stella, and they were just waiting for Mister Lucas to give the green light?"

"Yeah, I never thought this would be Stella's doing. She went to great lengths to frame Melody. She's really quite cunning, isn't she?"

"Melody isn't as simple as we make her out to be either. Didn't you see that Lucas is backing her in this matter? She has Mister Lucas' support." The person sneered, clearly jealous.

"Even if Mister Lucas is supporting Melody, she still suffered injustice, right? We all thought she harmed Miss Tracy. We should at least apologize to her."

The crew members looked at Melody, who stood quietly. Even though the truth had come to light, she did not seem too excited.

It was just like after she had finished shooting a scene. No matter how others praised her, she remained indifferent.

"Go ahead if you want to apologize, but I'm not going to do it. Someone with her status doesn't need our concern. She earns so much more than us!" The two groups with differing perspectives went their separate ways.

Melody did not expect that the crew members would have a falling out because of her.

She looked at Lucas, who seemed to have everything under control, and belatedly realized that he probably had arranged all of this in advance.

'No wonder he came here so suddenly. If that's the case, maybe what Stella said wasn't a lie. Maybe she really wasn't the one who put the outfit into her bag! When did he start arranging all of this?' thought Melody.

She could not help but recall when she bumped into the two of them on the street having a date yesterday, and later, his suit ended up at Stella's house.

'Lucas must've gone to Stella's house last night to look for evidence.'

Melody was not sure if her guess was correct. She decided to ask him later.

At that moment, Shaun also rushed back. He stopped in front of Lucas and, without waiting for him to speak, assured him that the same thing would not happen again.

"You better keep your promise this time. It's also your responsibility as the director."

Shaun wiped the sweat off his forehead. He would inevitably feel immense pressure whenever he faced Lucas.
