"Director...I don't know what kind of actress you're looking for, do you think I'm a fit?" The man's mouth twitched, "You've got it all wrong, I'm not a director!" "Stephanie wouldn't lie! She has inside information and knows a lot. Director, you can't deceive us any longer. Your charade is exposed!" a person exclaimed.
The man's expression turned serious as he questioned, "Who is Stephanie?" Gillian, who had just pulled Stephanie over, pushed her forward and declared, "Director, here she is! Stephanie is right here!" The man's sharp gaze immediately fixed upon Stephanie. Feeling a sense of unease, Stephanie asked cautiously, "Um...do you need something from me?"

"Um...I heard someone mention it tout before, and I blurted it out without thinking I'm sorry if I caused any inconvenience." "If apologies were enough, would we still need police?" "Well...what do you wantto do?" The man let out a chilling laugh, throwing a business card at
