Chapter 1125
When Love Comes Late
She turned to Stella with a sorry look.
âYou donât have to go in, Stella.
Iâll figure something else out.
â
âItâs fine.
Iâll get the diamond,â Stella replied casually.
âDonât,â Luka quickly said, stopping her.
âYou donât need to go in.
Itâs too cold.
â
He took off his coat, handed it to Stella, and then jumped into the pool in just his shirt.
âAh!â Ashley gasped, covering her mouth in shock.
Surprised by Lukaâs action, Stella stood by the pool, shouting, âLuka, get out! Weâre about to start filming.
â
Luka never appeared and continued his search in the pool.
He soon found the diamond underwater and got out.
His agent rushed over, wrapping him in a bath towel.
âWhat in the world are you doing? Look at you, all made up and now soaking wet! Itâs freezing out here.
You could catch a cold.
â
Luka just shot him a displeased look, and the agent fell silent.
Stella was stunned.
Suddenly, they heard Lutherâs angry voice.
âWho let Luka jump into the pool?â Luther demanded furiously.
âWe have an important scene to shoot soon.
Do you get it?â
Ashley was scared of Luther.
She looked down, trying to avoid his stare, and said meekly, âIt was just a little mishap.
â
âHereâs the diamond,â Luka said, his voice sharp.
He handed the diamond to her.
Ashley was too frightened to think straight.
She took the diamond carefully and thanked him.
âThanks, Luka.
â
âSomeone get Lukaâs makeup fixed, quick! And his costume, is it okay?â
Luther quickly got everything in order.
Alina, who had been quiet beside him, suddenly said, âHold on a second.
â
Narrowing her eyes, she looked at Ashley with suspicion.
âThis doesnât look like an accident.
The bracelet is a high-end brand and was going to be used in the shoot, right? Shouldnât it have been thoroughly inspected? How could it have such a big problem Like a loose diamond? Is the brand trying to ruin its own name?â
Alinaâs accusation made Ashleyâs heart race.
The truth was, the bracelet was fine.
Ashley had tampered with the diamond to create trouble for Stella.
Visibly nervous, Ashley stuttered, âI⦠Iâm not sure, but the diamond seemed loose when I got the bracelet, so I asked Stella to check it.
â
âIs that so?â Alina didnât buy it.
Though Ashley tried to sound firm, her face betrayed her guilt.

Familiar with these petty tricks, Alina was fed up.
âWe have cameras here.
Letâs look into this thoroughly,â Alina proposed, after eyeing Ashley and turning to Luther.
âAnd if we find the culprit, they should be kicked off the set.
â
Luther, who despised conflict and plotting, quickly agreed.
âReview the footage immediately.
â
Ashleyâs face went pale.
She was in a panic, realizing that the cameras would expose her.
This film was crucial for her career in show business.
âWaitâ¦â She finally decided to come clean.
âI did it.
I set Stella up on purpose.
