Chapter 2329

Author: Cher the Cherished
"How are you, Melody? Is your ankle better?" asked Monica.

Melody smiled. Monica's enthusiasm was always contagious, and Melody could not help but feel uplifted by her positivity.

"I'm mostly recovered, but I still can't put weight on my left foot for the next few days. I might need you and Penny to help me," Melody replied with a smile.

Monica nodded. "It's so good to have you back. Now we can discuss the script together every day."

With Lucas having many things to attend to, they did not engage with him much and would follow his lead on how to address the rumors.

Once Melody was settled in, and seeing her enjoying her conversation with Monica and the others, Lucas simply bade them farewell before leaving.

After Lucas left, Monica finally mustered the courage to ask Melody, "Why the sudden move to the set? Your foot injury seems serious. Wouldn't it be more convenient to stay at home for now?"

Melody sighed, not wanting to delve into the details. "I have my reasons. What's the

    Melody refocused herself.By that afternoon, Shaun came with the team to knock on her door. The main cast needed to discuss the challenges facing the production and how to handle them.Previously, Lucas indicated that they would follow Melody's lead on this matter. It was essential to clarify the matter and ensure that the public saw their evidence. They did not want others to think they were guilty and were just fabricating evidence to deceive the public.Once their evidence was ready, they would hand it over to Edmund, who would be responsible for coordinating with the entire production team.Shaun felt reassured upon hearing that Lucas' assistant was handling the matter. Thus, even though the situation had not been solved yet, Shaun and Mick were all in high spirits. In fact, no one could tell that the entire production was still on hold."Shaun, Mick, Nathan, it's been a while," said Melody. Nathan came up warmly and gave her a big hug."Yes, it's certainly been a while, Me

    Shaun was initially reluctant to let Melody know all that. Lucas had warned him before not to mention Tracy in front of her. After all, Tracy had tried to drown Melody, and no matter how indifferent Melody seemed, the incident would undoubtedly leave a scar in her heart.However, when Monica brought it up, Shaun remained silent."Oh, I see," replied Melody lightly.It had only been a little over half a month since they last met, and Tracy had gone from being a supporting character to a prisoner. Melody could not help but sigh. She still wanted to see Tracy, to ask her why she harbored so much hatred toward her, why she insisted on killing her. However, she knew Lucas would not allow it.Nathan listened quietly to their discussion, saying that they should clarify things when the situation reached its peak so that all social media users would realize that they had been completely misled by Tracy before."It's not the time yet," Mick decisively stated."Then when is the best time?

    As Melody looked at the script, she noticed the subtle handling of Tracy's character by the writer, seamlessly connecting it to the previous content. The depth of the script had even surpassed the previous one, leaving Melody so impressed that she could hardly close her mouth.She made sure to thank the brilliant writer behind this masterpiece after the filming had ended. As the production resumed, every member of the crew was in high spirits, even those who did not usually exchange greetings were all cheerful.Melody woke up early, but Monica got up even earlier. Melody was worried about her mobility due to her foot, but with the crutches, she managed most tasks independently.The only thing Melody found troublesome was going to the cafeteria to buy three meals a day, but Monica took care of that."Melody, did you read yesterday's script? I didn't expect I'd have a scene too, and it's with you and Nathan!"Melody nodded as she tore into her doughnut."That scene is really good.

    Even though both Shaun and the investors had money and had not mentioned anything about withholding salaries, everyone still felt better about the production continuing.At least that was what everyone was thinking. Many who had not talked to Melody before the incident happened would ask her how she was doing when they saw her in crutches and supported by Monica.Melody was pleasantly surprised by this sudden attention. A crew member next to her explained, "Ever since Mister Lucas visited, everyone understood who was responsible for getting us back on track so quickly. Of course, they'd be happy to talk to you now, right? Besides, after the recent incidents, everyone slowly realized that you were the truly innocent one, so it's only natural they're willing to take your side.""Ah... I see." Melody did not know when Lucas had visited the set to show his support for her, but it caused a ripple of emotions within her.It would have been easier on her if Lucas had been as cold as he ap

    In an instant, other people in the comments section began attacking this individual.[I don't understand what's wrong with young people nowadays. Can fandom really lead to such a lack of morals? Melody has only just become famous, and she already has such die-hard fans? If she knew that fans like you were spreading rumors and smearing her in the comments section, I don't know whether she'd laugh or cry.]The person who posted the comment felt unfairly treated. They had only said what many others were afraid to say, so why were they being attacked like this by these people? Despite this, they firmly posted several more comments on their own page.[What Tracy posted originally was just a few clips taken out of context, not the full video. Why are people claiming that the entire crew was bullying her based on these disconnected shots? Furthermore, if she was truly bullied, why didn't she leave the crew after this matter was exposed? Doesn't this suggest that her motives are not pure? Y

    "I've always thought that the real troublemakers are those spectators who enjoy watching the chaos and don't mind stirring up trouble. It's clearly not our fault, but just because of a few clips, they're throwing mud at us and even resorting to baseless insults."Honestly, if it weren't for my identity as an actress, I'd go up there and give them a piece of my mind. They've crossed the line, dragging my family into it as well," grumbled Melody.Melody understood that her anger was not groundless. Moreover, all of them—as celebrities—had been subjected to various attacks, especially during the peak of online negativity.She sighed softly. "Even though I prepared myself for the fact that not everyone would like me before I decided to become an actress, such blatant malice still gets to me. We're strangers to most of these people, and the only contact they have with us is through the big screen. I just don't understand. Where is all this hatred coming from?"Melody's question echoed t

    [Give it a rest. Don't be a fair-weather friend. Where were you when the whole crew needed support? Just admit you're wrong. I apologize for my initial bias.][Me too. I didn't believe it at first when such news emerged, but when I saw Tracy in tears and everyone's expressions unpleasant, I empathized with the victim's perspective and thought the whole crew was bullying her. Who could've thought Tracy was the real troublemaker? She's even in trouble with the law now! What a plot twist! I also owe the crew an apology, and I'll definitely support Shaun's movies.]In no time, topics like 'I owe Shaun's crew an apology' and 'Actress Tracy' were trending. Almost everyone was eager to know what really happened with the crew and what Tracy had done to them.[I can't believe Shaun's crew were the victims. Are they noobs or something? How can they be intimidated by a two-bit actress to give her more scenes? It's ridiculous!]This comment received the highest number of likes. Initially, ever

    Melody pondered for a moment but ultimately decided to personally reassure everyone, as well as provide an explanation. Seeing the genuine concern and sadness expressed by her fans in the group chat, she felt even more compelled to make an appearance.[Good evening, everyone.] Melody cautiously typed these few words into the fan group chat.The fans in the group were all shocked; they never expected Melody to actually appear in the group chat.[What! What did I just see? Is it real? Is that Melody?][Is this a prank? Am I seeing things?][Good evening, everyone. Yes, it's me, Melody.]After Melody sent another message, their excitement became even more frantic, flooding the chat so much that Melody's messages were barely visible.Some rational fans immediately intervened. [Everyone, stop spamming. Melody appeared for a reason, and if we keep spamming, others won't be able to see her message.]Many fans were clutching their chests in front of their screens; this was their first

    Sherman could not help but feel fearful when he recalled the incident.Rita gently smoothed his furrowed brow. "I knew you'd come to rescue me, just like all the times you did. I love you, Sherman."Previously, Rita confessed her love to him when she was groggy. At this moment, however, she was clearly awake, even sporting a faint smile on her face as she confessed.Sherman immediately blushed. "I love you, too."Rita did not stay long in the hospital; she quickly returned to the Parr family's mansion. Just as Sherman's grandparents had said, Rita did not have any major injuries, so there was no need for her to stay in the hospital that long. In fact, she might even recover faster emotionally under the care at home.Not once did Sherman bring up Rita's job, but she surprisingly resigned from New Capital Times on her own accord. It would be difficult for her to investigate cases with her current condition; not to mention Sherman had handed over the evidence to the police. The polic

    "Sherman, I like you. I love you," Rita finally confessed.Sherman, deeply pained, pulled Rita into his arms. "This is all my fault. I should've looked for you quicker. I've never blamed you. All I want is to see you smile. It's enough for me as long as you're willing to let me stay by your side."You don't have to confess to me. I know it's hard for you to do that because of your family. I've seen the way they've treated you, and…"The bodyguards who had barged in with Sherman felt a bit awkward to see their company president in tears. However, the priority was to get Rita to the hospital for a check-up. Being tied up for hours could cause circulation issues, and it could be dangerous if her limbs did not regain feelings soon.In the end, they got the bravest among them to convince Sherman to let them take Rita to the hospital. Instead of letting them do it, Sherman wiped away his tears and, with ease, lifted Rita as if she was as light as a feather.Fortunately, after the hospit

    With that, Karen left without looking back. She was carrying Vince's baby in her womb, so how could she pin all her hopes on Sadie? Since Sadie was obviously unruly, she would have to rely on her son.'Sadie can spend the rest of her life with Esmond since she likes him so much. God knows it had been exhausting enough to raise her. Plus, it's only fair for Esmond to take care of her since I've done my part taking care of her until now,' thought Karen.Meanwhile, the only consolation for Sherman was that Esmond did not try to put up a fight. It seemed that he still cared about his daughter Sadie.Sherman led his men to a dilapidated house. Esmond had been cautious enough to choose a rundown house situated at the end of a village.When Sherman barged in, he found Rita lying on the floor while Esmond's men ignored her. Esmond's men had followed his orders, and since he did not instruct them to do anything to Rita, they left her well alone.Before the men could react, they were surrou

    Karen cried and silently knelt by Sadie's side without trying to defend herself. Sadie, on the other hand, feebly tried to explain herself. Alas. Vince refused to listen.There had been many occasions before when he had chosen to believe Karen and Sadie, but at this moment, he realized he had been terribly wrong to do that.Rita used to be so kind, understanding, and well-behaved. However, ever since Karen and Sadie moved in, Vince felt like his daughter had become manipulative, always trying to compete for attention, and stirring up jealousy in front of him.Unfortunately, it took Rita's disappearance to make Vince realize that Rita was not trying to compete for attention. All Rita wanted from him was to treat her the same as Sadie.Vince used to think that Rita should give in to Sadie more since Sadie was younger, too."Why don't you go live with your biological father since you prefer him so much? I never want to see you show your face around here anymore! As for your mother, s

    Sadie was so anxious that she wanted to jump out. "Mom, don't tell me you fell for it! Why did you call Esmond? Now they all know where Rita is. You've ruined everything, again! What were you thinking?"Karen could not care less. She cried and slapped Sadie. "You nearly scared me to death! What would I do if something happened to you? I didn't raise you just to watch you die. I told you not to meet up with Esmond, so why did you secretly meet up with him? How can you ask him to get rid of Rita?"Are you out of your mind? All I want is for us to live out the rest of our lives peacefully, so why didn't you listen to me?!"Sadie was furious. Karen had stopped trying to get rid of Rita ever since she got pregnant, so how could Sadie not be angry? Rita was like a thorn in her side, and Sadie would never be happy unless Rita was dead."Don't you know I like Sherman? How could you ask me to do nothing when Rita has stolen him from me?! I was the one who liked him first. It's either Rita g

    Karen wanted so badly to slap Esmond through the phone.'What good are his pompous words now? We wouldn't be in this mess now if he hadn't hit me back then! What's more, he's saying he's doing this for Sadie. But has he ever thought of what would happen to me and Sadie if he got rid of Rita? Rita's the heiress of the Russell family. Not to mention, she's married to Sherman, so that makes her owner of Parr Group too! What makes Esmond think he can get rid of Rita so easily?'Karen's breath was ragged as she said, "If you don't believe me, just listen to your daughter's screams. I can't save her now; you will literally decide her fate! Plus, I'm pregnant with Vince's baby, so even if I lose Sadie, I still have a kid—which is more than what I can say about you!"Sherman could not help but be impressed by Karen a little. Even in this dire situation, she did not forget to express her heartfelt feelings to Vince, letting him know that she was always on his side. It was certainly not an ea

    "Sherman raised an eyebrow. "Don't worry, I'm sure it's just a minor injury, maybe just a finger. There shouldn't be any major issues. A sprained joint takes only a hundred days to heal, and it might take her even less time to heal if you take very good care of her while she's recuperating."Karen's heart ached upon hearing that. She lunged toward Sherman, wanting to hit him, but the bodyguards stopped her before she could get close.Vince, still worried, held Karen tightly beside him. "Calm down. I'm sure Sadie will come out unharmed if Rita's kidnapping has nothing to do with her. But if it does, then you should know very well that…"Vince's voice dropped an octave. He could not believe his daughter's disappearance had anything to do with his stepdaughter. However, he was not utterly naive.He continued, "How could a girl like her take Rita away? Even the car window was smashed. Others must've been involved. Does her biological father have anything to do with it?"Sherman nodded

    "Yes, it's true I met up with my biological father, but it was just a one-time thing. I don't want to go back to him at all! Otherwise, I would've done it ages ago. Dad, I'm really grateful to you for taking me in and looking after me all these years. That's why I feel like you're my real father, even more real than those who share the same blood."How could you unjustly accuse me and Mom like that? Sherman is the one spouting nonsense here. He's trying to push all the blame onto us. Dad, you have to wake up and see the truth!"Karen nodded along, but her heart was racing. 'When did Sadie meet Esmond? How did Sherman know when I don't even know? Seems like Sadie does have something to do with Rita's kidnapping. I have to settle things and get Sherman out of here.'Karen never had the thought of rekindling her relationship with Esmond. The only thing she wanted then was to peacefully give birth to her son. Everything in the Russell family would eventually go to her son, and she would

    Sherman detested people pointing their fingers at him when they spoke. He stood up slowly, towering over Vince instantly."You claim to be Rita's father, yet if I were you, I'd choose to shut up and stand aside. I can't believe you're scolding me for threatening Sadie when she's not even your real daughter!"Look at her guilty expression; it's clear she's involved. If you don't believe me, use your brain a little. No wonder Russell Group is declining under your leadership. It's only a matter of time before the company goes completely bankrupt!"Sherman showed no mercy, causing Vince to retreat with every word. Vince clutched his chest, struggling for breath.Karen, despite her weakness, stepped forward to support him. "How could you speak to your father-in-law like this? What has Sadie done to offend you? She has nothing but admiration for you. Plus, she's just a child. How could you treat her like this?"She went on and on, but Sherman stood his ground. Meanwhile, the burly bodyg
