The Kiss that Sparked it All

Chatper 2157

Chapter 2157

Ivy was just about to nod in agreement, mulling over a leisurely stroll through the garden as a distraction, but her

phone buzzed with a call from the production team the next moment.

“Hello, is this Ms. Dunhill speaking?”

“I am.”

“Well, regarding the incident at the set yesterday, there’s been some developments. We need you to come down to

assist with the investigation.”

Ivy hadn’t expected progress so soon and immediately agreed to go.

After hanging up, Alyssa looked at Ivy with a face full of concern. “Ivy, do you really have to rush off to the set? It

might not be the best time to go there now.”

Ivy understood Alyssa’s worries. Having Alyssa’s care was more than enough for her.

She affectionately linked arms with Alyssa and gave a reassuring shake. “Granny, don’t worry! It’s a society

governed by law, and the police are on the case. It won’t be easy for them to frame me if that’s what you’re

worried about. Besides, they said there was a development – that’s why they called me in. If there wasn’t, I

wouldn’t bother going. You and Grandpa should go take your walk in the back garden. I’ll have to pass this time, but

I promise I’ll join you tomorrow!”

Seeing Ivy regain some of her spirit, Alyssa felt somewhat relieved.

Alyssa patted Ivy’s hand. “My dear, I hate to see you troubled. Go ahead and tend to your matters. We’ve got

plenty of folks at home, so don’t you worry about us.”

Ivy nodded firmly. If things went smoothly, she wouldn’t have to face the loneliness of betrayal at the set again.

The taste of mistrust was truly bitter.

When Ivy arrived at the set in the family car, she noticed that Colton hadn’t shown up yet.

The remaining crew members didn’t interact with her much. Ivy knew that few of them were inclined to believe in

her innocence.. So, she decided to stay in the car rather than getting out.

But just as she was about to close the car door, a pair of rough hands stopped her.

“Hey, look everyone, Ivy’s here!”

Following the call, the other crew members gathered around, leaving Ivy with no choice but to step out.

“Well, look who it is, our very own diva actress. Got the nerve to show your face here, huh? If I were the culprit, I’d

be too ashamed to come back, guilt-ridden to death!” said a woman with a sharp tone, peering over her glasses.

Another chimed in with a sneer, “That’s because you don’t have the stomach for being the villain, dear. She

obviously doesn’t think she’s done anything unforgivable. Might even be thrilled about it. Ugh, just thinking about

working with someone like her gives me the creeps! What if she decides she doesn’t like me next?”

While saying this, she dramatically rubbed her arms as if truly frightened by Ivy.

Seeing them playing off one another, Ivy couldn’t help but let out a cold laugh.

“Ignorance.”
