Their side of the story would be swept under the rug, buried deep beneath the layers of Melody’s demise.
The truth would remain obscured, lost in the shadows. They simply wouldn’t believe that someone could be so desperate to frame others and would go to such lengths, even at the cost of their own life.
Lucinda reassured Noelle with a tender pat on her hand.
Above, Melody let out a derisive snort.
“Lucinda, you really think I won’t jump? Since I’m here, I didn’t plan to leave alive!”
Lucinda smiled.
“Even if you choose not to jump, your fate is sealed.

Might as well put your death to good use and try to frame me.”
Melody was stunned by her words.
Seeing that Lucinda was watching the fun, confusion was etched on Melody’s face as she looked at her.
“Lucinda, this is your new show’s launching ceremony. Do you know the implications if I die here today? Don’t act like it doesn’t affect you!”
Lucinda’s patience waned, her tone growing impatient.
“Are you going to jump off or not? Quit dilly-dallying. If you’re hell-bent on ending your own life, do it now. You have intentionally use your threats to die as a means to disrupt this ceremony. I’ve had enough of your theatrical antics.”
Having aired her complaints, Lucinda turned towards the director, her tone resolute.
“Cancel the launching ceremony. We’ll reschedule it.”
“Okay,” the director replied, displaying his understanding of the complex situation at hand.
Seeing Lucinda’s composure, the onlookers began to see the matter in a new light.
Things would take a different turn if Melody didn’t dare to jump off the building.
Her hesitation implied that her words were likely lies and an attempt to cause trouble for Lucinda.
Soon enough, Melody realized that Lucinda was intentionally tricking everyone with her words.
In a fit of hysteria, she screamed at the crowd, “Remember, Lucinda forced me to end my life! She’s a devil! And Noelle is a shameless bitch! She seduced my man! I’m telling you all the truth!”
Just as she was about to leap from the building, Lucinda intervened.
“Wait!” she called out, halting Melody in her tracks.
