Stephanie frowned and said, "Giovanni, are you sure you want to continue ndering me? If the truth gets out, it ain''t gonna be pretty for you!" It won''t do you any good if the truth is revealed! Giovanni smirked, Were you afraid?You got caught red-handed, everyone on set saw the watch fall out of your bag! Even if you can prove you can afford it, didn''t mean you didn''t swipe it!"


    Stephanie retorted, "If that''s how it''s going to be be... Director, I''m sorry, we might not get through today''s scenes, but don''t worry, I''ll be on top form tomorrow! Alison, call the cops! Let them sort this out. But just a heads-up, Giovanni''s assistant, framing someone was a crime too! If you sessfully frame me for stealing a million-dor watch, I might do three to five in the mmer. But if it turns out you guys framed me, Giovanni might walk away scot-free, but you, not so much! I bet Giovanni didn''t nt the watch in my bag herself, she''s the leadingdy, she''s got a rep to protect, she''s got eyes on her all the time, but you, it''s different, nobody''s going to notice if you''re up to something. So, if you did it, admit it now, I promise I won''t hold it against you! After all, I just want to clear my name, I''m not out to get anyone, unlike Giovanni."


    Hearing Stephanie''s words, Giovanni''s assistant, a young girl, turned pale with fear.


    Alison picked up her phone and dialed 911.


    "Hello, I''d like to report a crime... There''s someone here..."


    "I confess! It was me... I put the watch in Ms. Bishop''s bag... But it was all Ms. May''s doing, she said she''d fire me if I didn''t, and if I did, she''d give me a month''s bonus... Ms. Bishop, please don''t call the cops."? 2024 N?v/el/Dram/a.Org.


    Alison quickly said into the phone, "Sorry, officer, we''ve sorted it out here, didn''t mean to bother you."


    Giovanni looked livid, "What the hell are you bbering about! When did I ever tell you to do that! You''re ndering me!"


    Giovanni''s assistant was crying now, but her mind was clear.


    She knew Stephanie, if she confessed, Stephanie wouldn''t


    just


    a grudge, just like she said, she o


    wanted to clear her


    True to her word, she hung up the emergency call.


    Betraying Giovanni would at most cost her the job.


    "Ms. May, I''m sorry... You''re always bad-mouthing Ms. Bishop when you get back to the hotel after shooting, it''s been going on for a while..."


    Hearing this, Giovanni turned pale, she couldn''t believe someone so close to her would betray her.


    She scowled, "Watch your mouth, how dare you nder your boss, I warn you, if you continue, I''ll have mywyer sue you!" The assistant turned pale again, "Please, Ms. May, let me off the hook, I''ll quit."


    "You think quitting is going fix this? Now everyone thinks I told you to do this, but I clearly didn''t. Tell me, who told you to frame me? Was it Stephanie and her team? I saw you whispering with her assistant a few days ago, I bet you guys were plotting against me, trying to ruin my reputation!"


    "Enough!" The director, who had been silent the whole time, finally spoke up.
