Chapter 667: Chapter 666: Do you know Ms. Joanna...?

"Are you trying to ensnare Director White as well? I’m warning you, the business isn’t as easy to navigate as you may envisage. If you want to keep your place here, you’d better keep in check,"

Having said that, Lisha Alcock turned to leave.

The moment she turned around, she saw someone standing behind her. She was stunned, her face changing ever so slightly, showing an unnatural flicker in her eyes, "Maddox, when did you get here? You startled me by staying silent."

Maddox Allenson glanced at her, a faint smile on his lips, "Just arrived and saw you chatting with Ms. Joanna, so I thought I’d come over and say hi."

As he spoke, his deep, bright eyes bypassed Lisha Alcock and his friendly gaze, full of a touch of humor, fell on Joanna Lawrence’s face. He greeted Joanna with a smile, "Ms. Joanna, good morning."

Joanna Lawrence paused before smiling back, "Mr. Allenson, good morning."

Lisha Alcock’s expression froze when she saw Maddox Allenson actually initiate a greeting with Joanna Lawrence.

"Maddox, you and Ms. Joanna... do you know each other?" Lisha Alcock had no idea when Maddox Allenson ended up standing behind her. She didn’t know how many of her words in the conversation with Joanna Lawrence he’d already heard.

If they knew each other and had a decent relationship...

As she thought of this, Lisha’s face darkened.

This newcomer was much more cunning and scheming than she’d initially imagined.

Simply an actor who does not even qualify as a D-list celebrity.

However, not only had she caught Gary White’s attention, Maddox Allenson, currently the hottest male artist, also seemed a tad different towards her.

Even though Maddox Allenson was affable, never putting on airs before anyone.

That didn’t mean he was warm to everyone.

Neither did it mean he was willing to approach anyone proactively.

Just now, it was Maddox Allenson who initiated greetings with Joanna Lawrence.

Being a woman, Lisha could tell from the look in Maddox Allenson’s eyes when he looked at Joanna Lawrence, there was something different from when he looked at other actresses.

Even though it looked the same on the surface.

Upon closer inspection, however, it was not.

The two most popular bachelors in showbiz, Gary White and Maddox Allenson, were both interested in this newcomer.

Lisha Alcock couldn’t help but feel a pang of jealousy.

She should be the center of attention of the entire film crew.

These men ought to be fixated only on her.

Yet now, all her limelight was stolen by a newcomer.

Lisha gritted her teeth, her knife-like eyes striking at Joanna Lawrence.

Her look was so intimidating that even Joanna’s assistant Nina got scared and shrunk back at her side.

Maddox Allenson naturally also saw the sharp look Lisha just shot at Joanna. He fell silent, his corner of lips lifting up into a soft smile, "Hmm, yes, I know Ms. Joanna. She’s my friend. I was planning to introduce you to her and hoped you would help her out a bit. But it turns out you two know each other already."

"It seems I won’t need to make that introduction."

Maddox Allenson’s words left Joanna Lawrence with a look of surprise and astonishment on her face.

She looked at him, stunned.

However, Maddox winked at her, signaling her to not give him away.

Lisha watched the exchange, feeling as if the two of them were communicating in a flirtatious way right in front of her.

She clenched her fists, feeling frustrated, and gritted her teeth while swearing under her breath that Joanna was a siren. Then she forced a smile, "I hardly know Ms. Joanna as this is our first meeting. Besides, with a famous star like you taking care of her, would she still need me?"
