Adeline’s eyes were red and she pointed at Briana with a wronged expression, “Director, she did it. When I came to
the makeup room to prepare for makeup just now, I felt that her face was unfamiliar, so I asked her why she was
here. Not only did she not answer, but she also hit me without any reason!”
Briana Cameron was utterly speechless at her ability to distort the truth. No wonder she could win the Best Actress
award with such acting skills.
Upon hearing this, the director turned to look at Briana Cameron, first stunned, then frowned and said, “Miss, why
are you here?!”
Just as Briana Cameron was about to speak, Adeline interjected, “She must have sneaked in with the intention of
stealing something or tampering with the props, otherwise she wouldn’t have lashed out at me in embarrassment.
If it weren’t for the many staff members present, who knows what she would have done to me.”

unreasonable trouble and slandering Briana Cameron, if they stood up for Briana Cameron now, they would lose
their jobs. Therefore, turning a blind eye was the best course of action.
The expression on the director’s face turned icy. This play was a period piece, involving many fight scenes and wire
work.
If someone really did sneak in and tamper with the props, it would definitely lead to serious consequences.
Seeing the director’s unpleasant expression, Adeline took the

opportunity to add fuel to the fire.
“Director, we should call the police. Otherwise, if anything happens, the entire crew will bear the consequences,
and it might even delay the shooting schedule.”
After a few seconds of silence, the director nodded and said, “Alright, we’ll do it your way, call the police.”
Adeline was delighted and quickly told her assistant, “Call the police.”
Briana Cameron raised an eyebrow, “Isn’t it a bit unfair to me to only hear Ms. Ponce’s side of the story?”
Adeline sneered, “What else do you have to say? Besides the fact that you sneaked into the crew, there’s also the
matter of you slapping me. We’re not done with this!”
Briana Cameron ignored her and turned to the director, saying, “I was invited by Mr. Xie to be the costume
designer, mainly responsible for Ms. Garcia’s costume design.”
Seeing her natural demeanor, without any signs of lying, the director somewhat believed her.
However, before he could ask, Adeline coldly said, “You still want to deceive the director until now, someone like
you, could know President Xie?!”
Astrid had always been haughty, looking down on everyone. She had tried several times to establish a relationship
with her, but she was completely ignored. How could it be possible for her to personally invite Briana to the crew as
a designer?!
Hearing this, the director also felt the same way. However, Astrid did indeed visit the set today, so he still kept a
wary eye. He said to the assistant director, “Go invite Mr. Xie over.”

Adeline frowned, somewhat discontentedly saying, “Arthur, you can’t really believe what she said, can you?”
Arthur’s expression was calm, “I don’t believe it, but what if she’s telling the truth?”
If the other party really was a designer sent by Astrid, calling the police to take the person away would definitely
offend Astrid.
Adeline pursed her lips and didn’t speak again, suddenly realizing that when Astrid arrived and didn’t recognize
Briana, her fate would definitely be even worse!
As time ticked by, Astrid hadn’t arrived yet, but the police had.
“Who among you called the police?”
Adeline quickly said, “It’s me!”
She pointed at Briana Cameron, her expression icy as she said, “She’s the one who sneaked into our crew, even
slapped me just now, and might have stolen something from us. Officer, you must interrogate her thoroughly! It
would be best to search her!”
The faces of the two policemen darkened halfway. Not to mention that they were about the same age as Adeline,
even if the other party really stole something, they could only take them back for questioning, they couldn’t search
them at will.
