Chapter 351

When Zara was tying the shoelace, Melody did not just stand there without moving. Instead, she secretly recorded the entire process of Yana bullying Zara.

As soon as the video was played, Yana’s arrogant voice could be heard. “You can’t even tie shoelaces properly. Are you a fool? Stop pretending! You just bumped your head a little. Why are you acting like you’re on your deathbed?”

The more Yana listened, the worse her face looked. Unable to wait for the video to finish, she lunged forward to grab Melody’s phone.

However, Melody quickly dodged Yana’s hand.

Yana missed and almost fell flat on her face. She was even angrier and reached out to grab Melody’s arm.

However, Melody did not give Yana a chance to touch her. Her movements were so fast. In an instant, she moved to a place that Yana could not touch.

Yana was frustrated. Just as she was about to curse, Melody said faintly, “I’ve set the video to be automatically published. It will appear on the Internet in ten minutes. Don’t worry. I tagged you, so your fans will definitely see it. You’ll be trending in no time.”

Yana finally felt fear. Her face was pale as she clenched her fists and said, “What do you want?”

“It’s simple,” Melody said calmly. “You apologize to Zara, compensate her for all damages, take her to the hospital for a check-up, and promise never to bully her again. Then I’ll cancel the auto-post.”

Yana gritted her teeth and squeezed out a sentence from between her teeth. “So many conditions, and you call that simple?”

Melody shrugged and said indifferently, “Of course, you can disagree with my conditions. Anyway, even if you don’t do it, once the video is exposed, you won’t be able to continue in the entertainment industry in the future. Naturally, you won’t be able to bully Zara.”

“You…” Yana was so angry that she wanted to kill Melody.

Seeing this, the director quickly pulled Yana and whispered in her ear, “You agree first. We’ll settle the other scores with her after she deletes the video.”

The director was convinced that Yana was a rich heiress, so he was always scheming to ingratiate himself with her. Now, seeing an opportunity, he was determined to seize it. He focused his mind entirely on Yana’s interests.

Yana ground her molars in anger, but she was not stupid. She knew that only by following the director’s instructions would it be beneficial to her future development.

At the thought of this, she took a deep breath and said, “I agree to your terms. Now cancel the auto-post and delete the video immediately.”

Melody’s expression remained unchanged. “I can cancel the auto-post, but the video stays until the movie is finished.”

“What do you mean?” asked Yana with a dark expression.

“I’m just afraid you’ll go back on your word,” Melody replied.

Yana was so angry that she shouted, “I can’t take it anymore! Arrest this woman immediately. She’s just an outsider. How dare she come into our set?”

The director also came back to his senses. “That’s right. How can you record a video without our permission on set? Call the police! Hurry up and call the police!”

Afraid that Melody would be taken to the police station, Zara quickly persuaded Melody, “Melody, delete the video. Otherwise, they will really call the police. Our crew does have a rule that we can’t take videos at will. They can totally make the police force you to delete the video.”

Melody frowned and looked at Yana coldly.

Upon seeing this, Yana laughed arrogantly and said, “We’re not unreasonable. Delete the video now, and we won’t call the police.”

The director chimed in, “That’s right. You’d better be smart and delete the video quickly. You’re not a member of our crew, but you snuck into here and even secretly took a video. This is illegal in the first place. You should be sensible!”

Just as Melody was about to speak, a sneer sounded. “I didn’t know your crew was so interesting.”

Everyone subconsciously looked in the direction of the voice.

Melody also looked up at the classroom door. She didn’t know when Sid had appeared at the door, and a tall man was standing behind him. The moment Melody saw the man, her eyes widened in surprise.

She thought, ‘Ken? Why does he appear with Sid?’

At the same time, Yana also saw Ken. Her eyes instantly lit up, and she was unable to hide her admiration.

Sid took a step forward and said to the producer who was following behind them, “Is this the actor and director you chose? Is anyone and everyone allowed into the entertainment industry now? Is the entertainment industry so chaotic? You not only publicly hit someone, but even reversed the truth?”

The producer’s face turned pale. The chaos in their circle wasn’t new, but today was an unfortunate collision with these two.

He laughed dryly and said apologetically, “Mr. Swanson, Mr. Quant, I’m terribly sorry for this embarrassment. Let me handle this.”

As the producer spoke, he walked into the classroom with a dark expression and said coldly, “Yana, apologize to Zara immediately!”

Yana felt extremely indignant when her name was called out. However, Ken was present. She did not want to leave a bad impression on Ken.

She did not know how much Ken had seen. After

hesitating, Yana pretended to be aggrieved and innocent as she cried, “I accidentally pushed Zara. It’s indeed my fault. But how can they threaten me with my career over such a small matter?” As she spoke, she gave the director a warning look.

The director braced himself and spoke up for Yana, “Producer, Mr. Swanson, I was there the whole time, so I know that both parties are at fault in this matter. How about this? They shake hands, hug it out, and we let this matter rest.”

Hearing that, Melody laughed. Then everyone looked at her.

Melody put away the ridicule in his eyes and said indifferently, “Both sides are at fault? Then may I ask, what exactly did Zara do wrong?”

Zara was hesitant and uneasy. She clasped her hands together.

The director could see Zara’s lack of confidence. He immediately believed that Ken would definitely stand on Yana’s side, so he said coldly, “What does it have to do with you? Zara, tell me yourself. Are you in the wrong? Did you bring an outsider onto the set without permission?”

Zara’s back stiffened as she replied with a pale face, “Yes…”

“That’s right.” The director turned around and said to Ken and the others, “Let’s not make a big deal out of it. If we make a big deal out of it in front of the media, it will severely affect our production team’s future filming. It might even affect the box office.”

Melody had never seen such a shameless person as the director. Just as she was about to take out the video, Zara suddenly pressed her hand down.

Melody looked at Zara in confusion, only to see Zara gently shaking her head at her. “Melody, let’s end this matter here, Zara said.
