Chapter 2033 Stella and her assistant brought a lot of coffee, delivering cup by cup to the crew and cast. "Great job, everyone! It's such a hot day, so I'm sure a nice cup of iced coffee will do wonders for you." "Oh Stella, you're so kind and beautiful!" "As expected of an award-winning actress! Not only is she professional, but she's approachable too." Everyone, upon receiving the coffee, was very happy. They kept piling praises on Stella.
Sof them turned to look at Melody and said, "Unlike speople who clearly can't act, yet still insist on taking the female lead role. Sigh! We would've wrapped up filming quickly if it weren't for her." "Yeah! She doesn't deserve the role at all!" Although their conversation did not explicitly mention the person they were talking about, those in the know knew.
Melody felt a tightness in her chest when she saw how happy they were. She stood up and decided to take a break alone in the car.

Melody had been struggling with the first scene of the shoot. Upon hearing this news, Stella promptly had her assistant buy scoffee and bring them over. She wanted to make sure Shaun and all the staff knew that the rightful female lead for 'War Song' should be her, not snewcomer like Melody.
"Melody, have scoffee," Stella said with a smile, placing the coffee in front of her. "How does it feel on the first day of filming?" Melody did not know whether Stella's question was intentional, so she replied casually, "Thank you. It's my first tfilming, and I don't have much experience yet..." "Stella, you have no idea. We've been at it for so long, and we still haven't nailed a single scene." A staff member approached Stella ingratiatingly and glared at Melody.
They were unaware of the relationship between Melody and Lucas, treating her merely as a newcomer who got the role because she was lucky and not because she was talented.
Their shock was first directed at Shaun for choosing a newcomer as the female lead in 'War Song'. However, after what happened during filming, they completely lost the belief that Melody earned the role based on her own merit.
After all, it was inconceivable to choose someone incapable of acting as the female lead for such a crucial project like 'War Song'.
Stella mentally laughed when she heard the crew members' assessments of Melody.
'She managed to make everyone hate her within just half a day. This is too perfect!' thought Stella. 'Looks like I won't have to do much to make Shaun realize his mistake and fire Melody in favor of casting me!'

Stella walked up to Melody and affectionately took her hand. "Melody, don't be embarrassed It's typical to ver face challenges in your first film. I was fortunate to have a good team and director, which made my first filming so much easier."
At first glance, Stella might seem like she was comforting Melody, encouraging her not to be too hard on herself. However, f. However, upon closer inspection, it becapparent that she was subtly using this situation to showcase that she had little to no trouble in her acting career from the very beginning. It was a way of praising her natural talent in acting. Implicitly, Stella was guiding Melody to understand the difficulty of the situation and to consider stepping back.
Despite knowing Stella's intention, Melody could not find a way to refute since reason was not on her side.
"What's your first scene? How about I help you take a look?" Stella looked at her with a seemingly sincere expression as if genuinely wanting to assist.
Before Melody could refuse, a nearby crew member immediately chimed in, "Wow, Stella, you're truly amazing. Filming your own scenes and still taking the tto guide others? You're truly beautiful inside and out."
