Beatrice had been living on earth longer than the young people did, so she was quite confident in her judgment of people.
Stella quickly ran to fetch her own bag.
Her assistant was not around, and with such a big bag, it was a bit difficult to find a small pack of tissues.
Lucas walked up to her when he saw her rummaging through the bag.
Stella thought he was going to help her, so she smiled to reassure him.
"Please give me a moment, Lucas. My assistant usually helps me with organizing my bag. I don't know where she put the tissues, so it's a bit difficult to find them. But don't worry, I know there's a pack of tissues in my bag. I'll find them right away!"
Lucas watched her, and while Stella lowered her head, he reached around from behind her and gave the bag a little push.
The bag, already heavy, became a bit unwieldy for Stella, and with that sudden movement, the entire bag fell to the ground.
"Ah-"
Things scattered everywhere, and Stella was startled.
She was about to crouch down to pick up the items when there was a sudden gasp from around her.
"Did you guys see that? The outfit in Miss Stella's bag! The one captured on the surveillance camera that day. Isn't it the same as Melody's outfit?"
Someone keenly spotted the same set of clothing as Melody's had fallen out of Stella's bag.
A subtle smirk appeared on Lucas' lips; this was exactly the effect he wanted.
"Hey, you're right! Not only the color, but the style is exactly the same, too! If I remember correctly, Miss Stella never used to wear this kind of clothing, right? Do you guys think..."
The crew members exchanged suspicious glances with each other. Stella had always embraced vibrant and glamorous styles, never opting for simple and understated colors. How could an outfit identical to Melody's, which was simple and unadorned, end up in her bag?
"Do you think it's possible the person on the surveillance footage wasn't really Melody? After all, she did keep insisting she didn't do it..."
Some people started to waver.

Stella started to panic at the ensuing discussions around her.
She had no idea how that outfit ended up in her bag. She distinctly remembered leaving it in the coatroom at home.
What frightened her more was the possibility that Lucas would start to doubt her upon hearing the discussions.
She quickly crouched and hastily gathered all the scattered items back into her bag.
