Chapter 877: Chapter 875: She Comes with Bad Intentions

Joanna Lawrence had a natural talent for acting and a high aptitude for learning, but she was still new to the craft, and her skills were somewhat lacking in certain areas.

Maddox Allenson would point out her shortcomings and teach her how to perform better.

After practicing several scenes together, Joanna felt that the parts she struggled with the night before now flowed more smoothly and naturally.

Moreover, the suggestions Maddox offered her were extremely helpful.

She learned a lot from practicing those scenes with him.

At the end, she sincerely thanked Maddox: "Mr. Allenson, thank you. I was actually stuck on two parts last night, unsure of how to convey them. Your advice was incredibly helpful."

Maddox looked at her with his bright, clear eyes, full of gentle laughter: "That’s because you’re smart and quick to understand. Otherwise, no matter how much I said, it would be useless. To be honest, I should also thank you. After practicing with you, I have much more confidence in today’s film shooting."

"Can I come to you for practice acting together in the future?" Maddox asked this while wrapping one hand tightly around the side of his body, his eyes full of both nervousness and expectation.

Joanna thought about it and nodded, "Yes, you can."

Maddox’s eyes brimmed with a smile, "Great, if you ever want to practice acting together in the future, just come find me. Ms. Joanna, can I ask you a question?"

"What?"

"Are you really Director White’s cousin?" Maddox was quite curious about this matter, and unlike others who simply believed it, he still harbored some doubts.

After discussing the matter with Gary White the previous night, Joanna hesitated for a few seconds before nodding her head: "Yes, he’s my cousin. Why?"

Maddox looked at her with an inquisitive expression, fell silent for a moment, then smiled, "Nothing, I just find it surprising. However, you do resemble Director White somewhat."

He didn’t give it much thought, but Joanna was taken aback by his comment.

First Nina, and now, Maddox said she and Gary White looked alike...

Joanna hadn’t given it much thought herself.

Did she and Gary White really look alike?

She couldn’t help but ask, "Do you think I look a lot like Mr. White?"

Maddox took another look at her, felt his heart racing, and quickly averted his gaze, "Yes, your eyes and noses are quite similar."

"Maddox, Miss Joanna."

At that moment, Maddox’s assistant came over, glanced at Joanna, and then whispered something into Maddox’s ear.

Maddox’s face changed slightly, and his brow furrowed.

He told his assistant, "I got it, I’ll be right there."

After the assistant left, Maddox looked worriedly at Joanna, "You... just stay here for a while. Don’t go over there for now."

Joanna was puzzled, "Why?"

Maddox furrowed his brow even more, looking rather unhappy, "Lisha Alcock is here, saying she’s looking for you. She’s up to no good, and I’m afraid she might do something harmful to you if you meet her now."

Maddox had plenty of scandals on Lisha.

He had threatened her before that if she continued to bother Joanna, he would release those scandals to the public.

But not long after he made the threat, he discovered that someone else had already released Lisha’s scandals ahead of him.
