The Killer Queen by Noella Briony

Chapter 256

The production team was pacing nervously

Midway through filming, the lead actors, Stirling and Yesbel, had mysteriously vanished. If word got out, it would spell disaster for

involved, from the investors down to the last crew membert

The person in charge of the crew sighed in relief at Noells’s arrival. “We’ve been keeping it under wraps, too scared to even call the cops. Thank heavens you are here, or we’d have no clue how to handle this messt

Noella frowned, her tone stem. “How could you even think of not reporting something this serious? If anything happens to Stirling and Yashet, who’s going to take responsibility?”

She wasn’t a cop or a detective. Surely, the crew couldn’t expect her to find them, could they?

Sewing the faint anger on Noella’s face, the crew leader wiped his sweat and hurriedly explained, ‘We wanted to, really, but Stirling and Wasbel’s agent told us to wait for you!”

Yasbel was under contract with Polaris Star’s own entertainment company, East Sea Culture Company. The agent, being an internal staff member, decided not to alert the authorities, uncertain of what had actually happened.

Noella stepped into the room. “If there’s no news in two hours, call the police. You’ve already missed the golden hour for a search and

rescue

The production was a massive investment, and they were hoping this movie would be their ticket to major awards. If it leaked that the leads were missing, billions in investment would go down the drain!

The crew leader didn’t dare hesitate and quickly agreed.

Noella’s gaze then turned to the two agents waiting by the side. “Has Stirling been harassed by any fans recently?”

“Just those. Even if Stirling filed a complaint, most of them are underage, barely fourteen. It’s tricky to handle.”

From day one of shooting, several obsessed fans, barely twelve, had been lurking around, forcing the crew to arrange transportation to send them home. Unfortunately, this made those fans think Stirling was indulging and welcoming them!

An agent pulled out a phone. “This is Stirling’s phone. I don’t know the passcode, Ms. Noella. Maybe you could try.”
