Chapter 38
As the rigging was still on Regina but hadn’t been raised yet, Layla casually said, “If I were you, I’d be really scared. There are people here who wouldn’t mind if
something went wrong.‘

Everyone looked at Layla, curious about what she meant.
Regina glared at Layla, clearly annoyed.
Layla went on, “Just think, if the ropes were swapped and snapped while you’re being lifted, you could end up seriously hurt or even dead. It wouldn’t be our fault -it would be the production’s for using old ropes.”
The director stood up and pointed at Layla. “Who are you? We’ve replaced all the rigging with new equipment, so there won’t be any problems.”
Regina frowned at Layla.
Dorothy, looking pale and nervous, glanced back and forth between Layla and a young female crew member nearby.
The crew member, clearly worried, stared at Layla. She couldn’t help but wonder how Cayla knew something was wrong with the rigging.
Regina looked at Dorothy and said, “Take that rigging off and check it.”
An assistant hurried over to help Regina, quickly unfastening the ropes.
Regina then walked up to Layla and said, “Layla Murray? You came here to catch your husband’s mistress?”
The name “Layla Murray” caused people to whisper.
“Is she really Layla Murray, from the Murray family?” someone asked.
not sure, but Regina said she’s here to catch Mr. Yates” mistress. Could it be her?”
“Looks like it might be. Even if the photo is blurry, it land of looks like her.”
Dorothy’s face turned red with anger as she listened to the conversation
The director was shocked and angry. “How did this happen?” he asked, pulling at the rigging. The ropes, which were supposed to be new, were badly worn out. If someone had used them, it could have been really dangerous.
“Who’s in charge of this rigging? step forward now!” he yelled.
Regina and Layla, who were talking, heard the noise and turned to see the rigging that had been set up for Regina.
She looked back at Layla, who had a smile that didn’t look genuine.
The director pointed at Layla and asked, “Did you have anything to do with this?”
Regina quickly said, “It’s not her!
If Layla had been involved, she wouldn’t have spoken up earlier. Regina knew that Layla didn’t know much about what happened on set, so there was no way she would think of using old rigging to cause trouble..
Regina had already made things clear to Layla. Even if Layla were upset with her, she wouldn’t go so far as to cause harm.
Regina’s eyes were icy as she told the director, “Mr. Knoxx, I need to know what happened today.”
The director, still shaken from the close call, promised, “Regina, don’t worry, I’ll find out what went wrong and explain everything to you.”
He then told everyone to go back to their rooms and take a break.
As Layla was about to leave, Regina called out, “We don’t often get a chance to talk, Why don’t we chat in the lounge?”
Layla tumed around and said, “Actually, I’ve changed my mind. I don’t need to do anything. Someone else will make sure you have a tough time, even if it’s not
She glanced at Dorothy, who was nearby.
Replia sald, “Tmn sure you have questions for me. You have one chance to ask them–I’m leaving tomorrow.”
