Cedric sighed, acknowledging the situation. However, as elders, they found it challenging to directly intervene in such ambiguous situations.
"We can only hope that Thalia will gracefully step out once she realizes that Lucas doesn't like her that way. That's the best outcome for everyone," Cedric remarked.
Beatrice, who always cared deeply for Melody, expressed relief that what happened just now did not happen in Melody's presence. Otherwise, it would have been emotionally challenging for her. "No, I must find time to have a serious talk with Lucas. He's already someone else's husband, so he should draw a clear boundary with other women," said Beatrice firmly.
Cedric knew that persuading his wife would be futile when he saw the determined look on her face.
The atmosphere on the set was tense since the crew members were afraid that Shaun would suddenly call it quits.
Penny and Monica did not have much to do on the set, but staying at home made them uneasy. Thus, they decided to go there to see if there was anything they could help with. When lunchtime came, the two of them sat together to eat their lunch.
"Penny, when do you think the production will return to normal? I secretly surfed online with my secondary account and found that people online are still criticizing us. It really hurts me to read all those comments. We didn't do the things they're accusing us of, yet Mister Shaun won't allow us to clarify them. How long do we have to suffer like this?"
Monica could not enjoy her lunch at all when she thought about those people cursing maliciously at the production team.
"Mister Shaun and the others aren't even panicking yet, so why are you panicking? Anyway, we didn't do those things, so let them curse if they want," said Penny calmly.
Ever since being kidnapped last time, she had acquired a sort of equanimity she never had before. She seemed able to brush off everything, especially matters concerning reputation.
She understood that it was beyond her control whether people spoke well or ill of her. The most important thing was that their own conscience was clear-she had not done anything wrong. Shaun was waiting for the best time to reveal all the evidence to the public. When the truth came out, the production team would naturally be able to shake off all the negative images.
Monica understood the logic, but the wait was just too agonizing. She could not wait to see the day when they resumed filming.
"Do you know when Melody will return to the set?" Penny asked, leaving Monica a bit puzzled.

"I don't know exactly when, but I did text her yesterday. She said she's
almost fully recovered, so she'll
probably be back in another two or three days. What does Melody's m return have to do with anything?" Penny set down her cutleries and rolled her eyes at Monica. "You've been on the set for so long, so can't you spend a little more effort on building relationships with the people here? Use your brain a little." Monica immediately wailed, "What does that have to do with me using my brain? Besides, haven't I been putting effort into building relationships on the set? Am I not good friends with you and Melody? Isn't that enough?" Visit bignovels.com to read the latest chapter of this novel
