Chapter 1088
Stella returned to her senses and smiled. "Don't worry. I'm fine."
"Okay," Shea replied. Afraid that Stella could not control herself, she deleted the Facebook app from her phone.
Stella did not stop her.
Instead, she said, "Shea, didn't Bella have protection on? How could she break her leg?"
'She's not a porcelain doll. Why would her leg be broken after falling down around forty flights of stairs with
protection on?' Shea was also puzzled about the situation.1 Bella couldn't have suffered from such a serious injury,
even if she accidentally fell,' she thought.
"Wait here. I'll be right back."
Once Shea stepped out of the room, Stuart and a few people walked in. One of their main leads had suffered an
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtinjury, and it was not a trivial matter, especially since she was injured on set. Not only did this affect the shooting
schedule, but it also affected the public's view of the crew and the movie's reputation.
Previously, the company was under a lot of heat because of the incident regarding Bella's allergy and the death of
Yolanda Fenley. At that time, filming was delayed again and again. It was unfortunate that Bella was now admitted
to the hospital once more for an injury.
Stuart had been in the movie business for more than twenty years, yet he had never experienced such a difficult
shoot before. The expression on his face looked bad. He did not expect this incident to reach the upper
management so quickly.
The person standing next to Stuart was a senior executive at the film production company, Zachery Jensen. With a
gloomy look on his face, he wanted to meet Stella. Stuart did not know what was going to happen, but it was
beyond his control. All he could do was lead Zachery to the lounge where Stella was at.
"Mr. Winfield," Stella stood up and called out as soon as she saw Stuart. But the man did not speak. Instead, the
lean
man next to him, who was 5.7 feet and in his early forties, asked, "So, you're Stella Jewell?"
Stella did not reply. She was thrown off by the indifference in his voice. This was the first time she met Zachery, and
she felt a little uncomfortable being around him.
"This is Mr. Jensen. He's one of the people in charge of the film," Stuart introduced.
"Nice to meet you, Mr. Jensen," said Stella.
Zachery shot her a glance and said, "The company has prepared an apology statement. Add my assistant on
WhatsApp, and he'll send it to you. Then, post the official apology on Facebook."
"An apology statement?" Stella bit down on her words. "Who am I apologizing to?"
"Bella Young and her fans, of course!" Zachery said impatiently. "Do you know how bad the impact of this matter is?
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmIf Bella's leg does not recover soon, the movie will be put on hold indefinitely. It's a large investment. One extra day
of delay costs us tens of millions of dollars. Do you want to bear this responsibility? Issue the statement to control
the public's opinion so that the incident wouldn't affect the crew's reputation."
Upon hearing that, Stella's face darkened. "I refuse to make the statement. I didn't push Bella. She was the one who
didn't follow the directions. I withdrew my strength the moment she touched my hands. This accident has nothing
to do with me. I won't apologize."
Stella's reply made Zachery's expression turn cold. "The video of you pushing Bella is all over the internet, and
you're still trying to defend yourself? What kind of grudge does Bella have against you? Why would she hurt herself
just to frame you?"
Stella's body tensed up at that moment. "I think you should be asking her this question."
"Where did you get the confidence to say something like that after pushing someone down the stairs?"
"I told you I didn't push her."
"You're saying that but where's your proof?"
While they were talking, Stella's phone rang.
