Joanna Lawrence was stunned, a look of surprise flashed in her eyes.
Next to her, Nina also appeared deep in thought after hearing Maddox Allenson’s words.
It took Joanna a few seconds to come back to her senses, and she politely thanked, "Thank you, Mr. Allenson."
"No need to thank me. Starting from today, you can treat me as a friend. Friends should help each other," Maddox said, laughing. When he laughed, he looked very attractive, exposing eight even, white teeth, giving off an air of youthful vigor and vitality.
He had a strong youthful vibe.
For a moment, he reminded one of the boy they first found themselves attracted to.
Even Joanna felt that Maddox was very good-looking when he smiled.
Although her husband was also a super handsome guy.
But Maddox and Ashton Heath were two completely different types.
One was a mature, elite man.
The other was a clean and sunny youth.
The former was the type most popular with women in the workforce.
The latter was most popular with young girls.
"Little Tutu, I’ve been looking everywhere for you. So, you’re here with Joanna?"
"Hey, you’ve been tagging along with this girl again?"
"You slipped away so quickly, I lost track of you. You didn’t sneak over just to find her, did you?"
Not far away, Mike hurried over with a worried expression on his face.
As soon as he reached Maddox, he grabbed him like a protective mother hen and pulled him behind him.
Then, he glared at Joanna, gritting his teeth, "Why on earth is our little Tutu with you again? Don’t take advantage of your good looks to keep our Little Tutu around! I’m telling you, it’s the peak of his career right now, and I won’t allow him to date!"
"Cough... Mike, shut up!" Maddox came out from behind Mike with an embarrassed look on his face, covering Mike’s mouth with his hand, and said anxiously, "What nonsense are you talking about? Haven’t I told you I have no plans for a relationship right now?"
"If you keep acting , I’ll find another agent!"
"Uh... Little Tutu... let go." Mike angrily pried Maddox’s fingers off, stomping his foot in exasperation, "You still say you don’t girl, but now you’re talking about finding another agent because of her? What did I do to deserve this? I’ve raised a little ingrate like you!"
"Thinking about all the hardships I’ve been through to help you go from nobody to an A-List Celebrity, and this is how you repay me? Huh? Now you’re saying you want to replace me? You actually... "
"Sob... I’m just too heartbroken... too heartbroken."
"You ungrateful little brat."
"Supporting you is worse than supporting a piece of barbecued pork."
"Ahem, don’t mind him," Maddox rubbed his temples helplessly, "Mike sometimes goes a little crazy. He’ll be fine in a moment. If he scared you, I apologize on his behalf."
"You little brat, who are you calling crazy?" Mike exploded again.
He raised his hand and attempted to hit Maddox.
Maddox dodged nimbly.
"Alright, Mike." He took a deep breath, complaining of a headache, "If you have something to say, let’s talk about it in private, okay?"
