“Honestly, I still think it was Ivy,” one of the stagehands said, echoing the sentiments of the leading lady. “Giselle
can’t be that daft, right? To stuff evidence in her own bag? If it were Giselle, she’d have destroyed the evidence first
thing, not bring it to the set, right?”
“I don’t see it that way,” another piped up, leaning against a prop. “Everyone trips up sometimes. Maybe she

Fickle, disloyal cretins!
Unable to stomach it, Giselle had her assistant clamp down on any mention of other actresses in her fan groups.
