Before Shaun could finish, the producer stopped him from pissing off an already enraged Lucas. They had already failed to identify the suspect after Melody faced an incident on set, and Shaun's remarks seemed to insinuate to Lucas not to act recklessly with the crew.
Lucas glanced coldly at them, prompting both of them to lower their heads.
"Are you trying to give me a lecture on how I should handle my affairs?"
"No! That's not what he meant. Mister Lucas. He is just concerned about the movie and doesn't really understand the intricacies of the situation. This is our problem, though. Please don't hesitate to inform us if you need anything."
Lucas remained silent as he contemplated how best to compel the suspect to come forward. While many in the crew had clashed with Melody, he knew her personality could not have been able to provoke such opposition. Moreover, the disputes seemed trivial, yet the culprit was escalating it to a point where Melody's life was endangered.
Fame and infamy hung in the balance within the crew. The question that should be posed in such a situation was to identify who would stand to gain the most by harming Melody. Normal staff members would not profit from that, as they relied on having a stable team for their wages. That left only supporting roles, and Lucas's attention was soon shifted to the second female lead.
"Who is the second female lead in your crew, and how is her relationship to Melody?" Lucas tapped his fingers on the table and asked. To his surprise, the director and producer looked disgusted at the mention of the second female lead.
Lucas frowned. "Is she not here?"
"She's here, but she's become public enemy number one for the entire crew. She hasn't had any conflict with Melody, but she seemed to loathe everyone and received the same treatment in return. The rumors regarding bullying on set were all her fabrications."

The readers' comments on the novel: The Day I Kissed An Older Man
This book is a good book, but it’s too short. I hope it has a part two👍🏾...
This book is getting boring now. I loved Jeremy, Corinne, Sonny and Lucas. The story needs to end. or bring back more of Jeremy, etc....
I haven't skipped any chapter at all. Though the story is good, it keeps going back to base one. I think this has no ending at all and somehow after reading more than 2500 chapters it's kinda tiring already. They have drained all the thrills....
Great writing! I almost cried when Helen hit Melody! So sad! 😭 can’t wait to see how the relationship with her and Lucas develops though. So tired of the repetitive problems with different people....
Yikes my body tenses so much, my moods change as the scenes change. It leaves me wanting to continue reading....
my heart breaks for melody, so many ups and downs, i shed a few tears when lucas walked by melody carrying thalia, and melody stayed quiet while watching them leave. i find myself getting into character as if im one. i dont remember ever feeling like that in any other books. im thankful the 10 chapters/day. waiting for the next 10...
We have updated progress from 7 chapters/day to 10 chapters/day.<3...
i love grandma Beatrice, there needs to me more people like her in the world straight forward and to the point, no beating around the bush and worrying about offending anyone, why pretend to be someone your not....
looking forward to more chapters, The same thing is happening to Melody as what happened to Luna, if Luna was back maybe she would set Lucas straight, can't wait to see how Lucas handles the situations that will arrive. Poor Melody....
ya Lucas pay more attention to Melody lets see what happens waiting for more chapters thanks...
