Chapter 885: Chapter 883: Hurry to the Hospital

But even hurting just one hand is still a very serious matter.

For an artist, every part of the body is important.

Especially the face and hands, which have a high on-screen presence.

What really angered Mike was not that he thought his future interests would be affected, but that he genuinely cared about Maddox Allenson.

This was an artist he had personally cultivated.

Like raising his own child, he had painstakingly brought this child up and nurtured him well.

Yet suddenly, this happened.

This damn child valued love more than anything, not even cherishing his own body.

This was what truly enraged Mike.

Now he helps block sulfuric acid, who knows what he might have to help block in the future?

If Joanna Lawrence were in danger, would he even risk his own life to help her?

"I told you, this was my own voluntary behavior. It has nothing to do with Ms. Joanna." Maddox took a deep breath, endured the pain of the burns, and gritted his teeth, "If you keep insulting Ms. Joanna, you’ll be pushing me to get angry at you."

"In that situation, should I have stood by and watched her throw sulfuric acid on Ms. Joanna’s face?"

Maddox raised his head, looked at Joanna standing not far away, unharmed, and his lips curled in relief: "I’m glad Ms. Joanna is okay."

The injury on his hand was worth it.

Hearing him say this made Joanna’s heart suddenly go sour.

She thought of how she had deliberately distanced herself from him, avoiding him for various reasons.

She had been very cold to him.

Their relationship seemed no better than regular friends.

But in the critical moment, knowing what the consequences might be, he still chose to stand in front of her.

For her, he took the hit.

Mike was right, that sulfuric acid was meant for her.

The one who should be injured was her.

If it weren’t for Maddox pushing her away and standing in front of her, she wouldn’t be unharmed like she is now.

Although, it was all his voluntary behavior.

But, he indeed helped her.

And she... also owed him a huge favor.

She didn’t know yet how she could repay it.

"Mr. Allenson." Joanna felt guilty and ashamed about her past behavior, her eyes turning red, "I’m sorry, it was all because of me, that you got hurt..."

"It’s okay." Maddox’s pale lips curved into a gentle smile, softly comforting her, "As I said, it was my own choice. In that situation, any man would have chosen to do what I did."

Mike was fuming by the side.

To hell with "any man would have chosen to do what I did", he didn’t count himself among "any man".

If it were him, he wouldn’t be risking disfigurement to do such a foolish thing.

Nor would other men.

Only his silly boy would do it like that.

He had done it and thought other men would be just as foolish as him!

He was simply a fool blinded by love, who knew if one day he would really risk his life.

Suddenly, there was a commotion on this side.

Soon, the rest of the film crew also rushed over.

Gary White hurriedly walked towards them, and after seeing the burns on Maddox’s hand, his face changed slightly, and he said with a stern face, "What happened? What are you standing there for? Hurry up and go to the hospital."
