Shaun, with dark circles almost reaching his belly button, walked over, holding a cup of coffee. Early shoots like this were a challenge for everyone in the crew.
"You must think it strange. Like, why does it seem that everyone except for you acts as if they don't remember the previous day's incident?" asked Shaun.
Melody nodded.
"Maybe they find it hard to process, too. I mean, the leading actress they've always believed in doing something so damaging to her reputation..."
Melody's tone was subdued. After Stella's arrest, one would expect a sense of relief, but she was not particularly cheerful at all. Probably because of what happened with Lucas.
However, the production crew should be able to catch up on lost time without Stella's scheming.
Shaun raised an eyebrow, finding Melody quite composed. He had expected her to take advantage of this opportunity to bring Stella down, but Melody had done no such thing. It seemed she was indeed a newcomer, not tainted by the vices of the industry.
Melody had the entire Rivera family behind her back. She could easily use the Riveras' resources to ensure Stella would never have a comeback if she wanted, yet that thought did not even cross her mind.
"I thought you'd be happy with Stella's arrest, but it seems like you're not," remarked Shaun.
Melody glanced at him lightly and said with a sarcastic smile, "Why would you think that? Oh, I forgot, you all believe there must be some deep-seated hatred between Stella and me. Otherwise, why would she go to such lengths to harm me?
"As the saying goes, there's no smoke without a fire. Even though Stella has been arrested, everyone still thinks I must've done something horrible to her, or she wouldn't have targeted me. Some people will always think that way, won't they?"
Melody intended to ask the makeup artist to give her face a healthier glow. Having woken up so early and coupled with not being in the best mood, her complexion did not quite match the storyline.
Surprisingly, Shaun told her that was unnecessary.
"This morning scene will be used later, especially for the scene where you know David is leaving."
The actor playing Dieter was actually a local, a mixed-race individual with well-defined features that made him look somewhat foreign. When casting for the role, they had considered hiring a foreigner, but given the film's extensive use of English dialogue, they eventually opted for a mixed-race actor.
The actor portraying the male lead, Nathan Bryne, went through a series of challenges but eventually secured the role.

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...
