Meanwhile...


    A scream shattered the tranquility on the set.


    Tracy Mullins had just put on the shoes provided by the crew when she discovered something inside them.


    "What''s wrong, Miss Tracy?"


    The surrounding crew members quickly gathered around as Tracy frowned, appearing to be in considerable pain.


    "There''s something in the shoes..." She weakly pointed at the pair of shoes.


    She carefully lifted her foot to examine it and discovered a small hole had been punctured through her sole, causing her foot to bleed.


    The crew members turned the shoe upside down and tapped it lightly, and a thumbtack fell out.


    "My! What''s this thumbtack doing in there? The shoes were fine when Ist checked them!"


    Tracy''s assistant quickly brought alcohol to disinfect the wound for her. The discovery of the thumbtack in the shoes of the second female lead could not be a mere ident.


    This news quickly spread across the set, and Mister Shaun frowned when he heard it.


    "Mister Shaun, I''m really sorry for dying the schedule again..."


    Tracy''s assistant provided basic first aid for her wound, but they needed to go to the hospital to have it properly bandaged and examined for potential contamination since they were not sure if the thumbtack hade into contact with any viruses.


    "You don''t need to apologize. I''ll make sure to find out who did this to you," Shaun reassured Tracy.


    Everyone was well aware that this incident was not idental. The calm that had just settled over the set was once again disrupted by a scandal. Shaun promptly sent someone to review the surveince footage.


    However, the surveince footage was unexpectedly surprising.


    "What? How... How could it be Miss Melody? She''s the most influential in our crew, so why would she put a thumbtack into Miss Tracy''s shoe? Is it because she''s threatened by her?"


    The figure in the surveince footage was unmistakably Melody. She was wearing the same clothes she had on earlier that morning.


    "That''s so evil of Miss Melody! The thumbtack would''ve pierced through Miss Tracy''s entire foot if she had stepped hard on it!"


    Shaun silently observed the surveince footage again. The footage indeed showed Melody secretly entering Tracy''s dressing room.N?velDrama.Org holds ? this.


    However, having spent so much time with Melody, he knew she was not that kind of person. Yet, with so many eyes fixed on the surveince footage, everyone seemed convinced that it was Melody. As the director, there was not much he could say in her defense.


    "Miss Tracy''s acting has been improving recently, and it seems like she''s overshadowing Miss Melody. Some people just can''t handle it and resort to sneaking into others'' dressing rooms to sabotage them... Mister Shaun, you can''t let Miss Melody off easy just because she''s the female lead, you know!" said one of the crew members with her arms crossed. It was obvious she was not happy with what Melody did.


    "I I agree. After all, Miss Melody is just a grassroots talent. How can she bepared to someone that came from a properpany? She''s malicious. How could she resort to something so underhanded just because she''s jealous of someone else overshadowing her? I feel sorry for Miss Tracy. She''s the victim here, yet she feels so apologetic for dying the schedule. She''s truly beautiful and kind."
