The Day I Kissed An Older Man

Stella sighed as if she was expressing her concern for those celebrities who were obsessed with the spotlight. "Actresses should focus on honing our acting skills and ensuring the quality of our performance. Some people are led down the wrong path though."
Encouraged by Lucas's nodding, Stella went on, "After taking care of something this morning and coming back to the set, I discovered that someone had placed thumbtacks in the shoes of our second female lead! She suffered an injury, but it was a good thing that she managed to pull her feet out before stepping on them completely.
"She could've been crippled if her tendons were damaged! Whoever did this had an ulterior motive, don't you think?"
"A vicious person, indeed," Lucas replied curtly. As he uttered that word, he raised his head and glanced intently at Stella. A faint smile appeared on her face, for she failed to notice the deeper meaning in his gaze.
She then said, "You're right. She is vicious. I hope you won't get angry when you find out that this person is someone both you and I know."
"Someone I know?" Lucas raised an eyebrow.
Stella nodded. "Yes. You won't believe it. I was shocked when I heard that. I didn't want to believe it at first, but I can't deny a fact. The person is Melody. She's too impulsive! Tracy had to go to the hospital and receive treatment after what Melody did. We don't know yet if Tracy will be alright!"
Despite sounding genuinely concerned about Tracy's injury, Stella was secretly hoping that Tracy would lose the ability in one of her legs. She specifically chose the largest thumbtacks in the store, so it was a little surprising that Tracy was lucky enough to have avoided stepping entirely on them.
"Melody?" Lucas frowned slightly. "Is she capable of doing something like that?"
"Yes. You know what they say about judging a book by its cover. I'm sure it never crossed your mind that she would do something like that," Stella said. She then had a sudden thought and tried to test the waters with a question, "She's your wife, though. Do you think she's doing all this because she has pent-up unhappiness?"
"Pent-up unhappiness isn't justification for harming others now, is it?" Lucas smiled coldly. "I guess some people get jealous when their skills aren't as good as others."
He looked directly at Stella when making that remark, causing her expression to stiffen for a moment before she smiled in satisfaction.
"Exactly! You can't be going around harming others just because you're not as good as they are! I thought she was just an arrogant person, rather than a genuinely bad person. I didn't expect her to..." Stella grew more animated, thinking that Lucas might finally feel repulsed after finding out how evil Melody
was.
Lucas maintained a stern expression, "She's just a newbie. Is she already letting fame get to her head?"
Stella pretended to hesitate before finally nodding firmly. "Yeah... It might be because you're supporting her. She tends to be a little bossy on set and never takes us seriously. She's rude even to Shaun. But no one dares to speak out against her because she's your wife.
"I tried to talk to her several times in private, but she took my advice for granted. The praise she received for her acting skills is making her even more arrogant
than before.

Lucas lowered his gaze to his food and concealed his true emotions.
'This woman is taking me forafobl. E Everything she's describing about Melody is the complete opposite of the Melody I know.' "When did you return to the set this morning?" Lucas inquired. Visit bignovels.com to read the latest chapter of this novel
He had long suspected that Stella was the one who framed Melody. The meal invitation he extended to Stella was merely an excuse to dig up some more
information.
"About eleven o'clock, I think. I only realized that something happened on set after I returned..." Stella stuffed a mouthful of pasta into her mouth to hide her
guilty conscience.
