A Film Queen

Chapter 401

William, standing nearby, couldn’t take it anymore and pointed angrily at Matthew. “Are you out of your mind? You misplaced it and started blaming others. Do you think everyone wants your trashy manuscript?”

Matthew clenched his fists, his chest heaving. “I had the manuscript in my pocket before I came here, but when I woke up, it was gone. It must have been stolen here.”

William sneered. ‘Stolen? There are so many people around. Why are you only accusing my boss?”

“No one else would do it besides her!”

“You!”

William, who was short-tempered, was ready to lash out again, but Milly quickly stopped him. She stepped in front of Matthew and asked calmly, “Where’s your evidence?”

Matthew sneered, “Stephanie said that just now, you were the only one in the room. No one else was there. If it wasn’t you, then who was it?”

Stephanie stepped forward, looking innocent and pitiful. “Milly, that manuscript is really important to Matthew. He stayed up for several nights to create it. Please give it back to him!’

Typical tricks.

Milly rolled her eyes. “Sorry, I haven’t seen it. I can’t return something I don’t have.”

Stephanie was getting teary. “How could you say that? Just give it back to Matthew. If you want money, we can give it to you. But this manuscript is really important to him. Please, you have to return it.”

Milly was at a loss for words.
