Hearing the noise, Malcolm rushed over from the director and asked, "Sir, what's wrong?"
The policeman repeated, "Miss Betty is suspected of theft. Please come with us."
Malcolm said, "Well. There... There must be some misunderstanding. How about we take notes on the spot? Please understand that Betty is a public figure. If we go to the police station with you today, we will definitely have a big fight tomorrow. Can I?"
If it was changed to other people's belongings and lost, they might do as what Malcolm suggested.
But the person who lost the thing was Mr. Dylan. He stamped his feet and was about to tremble three times in the city. What's more Mrs. Dylan was very angry about it.
He said in a neither humble nor pushy tone, "I'm sorry, sir. We also follow the rules. If you have to stop us, we have to take you back to the police station by obstructing our work."
Hearing this, Malcolm lifted his lips and advised, "Betty, you go with the investigation first. I will help you find out the truth."
With a stubborn look, Betty glared at the police and said, "Okay! I'll go back with you, but if you really can't find anything, don't blame me for suing you for slander!"
The policeman was about to handcuff her, but she pushed him away and said, "I can walk myself!"
Looking at this scene, a smile appeared on the corner of Sunny's mouth. Alice asked, "Miss Sunny, are you satisfied with the result?"
Raising her eyebrows, Sunny glanced at Alice and said, "Just so."
A hint of slyness flashed through Alice's eyes.

On the set
At three o'clock in the afternoon when the A Midsummer Night's Dream was lost.
All the crew were busy with their work.
In the dressing room
Then Sunny raised her voice on purpose and said, "A Midsummer Night's Dream, which was bought by Dylan, is really amazing. It has been sent to the crew, but it is so mysterious that no one can see it."
With a smile, Alice said, "Miss, it's said that the A Midsummer Night's Dream is invaluable, and it's normal that it's not shown to others. However, I'm really greedy and curious about what it looks like. Although I have seen the pictures on the Internet, it is not as good as what I have seen with my own eyes."
On the chair next to them, Betty was fixing her make-up. When she heard the conversation between Alice and Sunny, she was stunned. Seeing her expression, Alice chuckled in her heart.

"It's your turn, Sunny."
The director's words brought back Alice's thoughts. Sunny threw the cup in her hand to Alice and took out a card from her bag. "There is no password. It's your reward for helping me."
With a smile, Alice took the card and said, "Thank you, Miss Sunny."
Sunny said, "You're welcome. Just follow me. I won't treat you unfairly."
If she wanted to have a place in the entertainment circle now, she had to make a plan for herself. She was sure that Betty, the kind of young actress like her, would be able to be beaten. Only in this way could she have a chance!

As Malcolm expected. Betty's name was on the Hot Topics because she was suspected of stealing A Midsummer Night's Dream.
