Love in the Limelight novel Chapter 393

Chapter 393

The live stream was still rolling, and Joana was taken to the production team’s break area, slowly coming back to her senses.

When she heard that the crew was planning to send her off to a hospital on dry land, she clung to Maddox’s clothes. “Mr. Maddox, I’m fine, just need to catch my breath. I want to tough it out with everyone else. I don’t want to give up.”

“No can do,” Maddox insisted. “You’re in no shape to continue the challenge. We’re going to find a guest to fill your spot for the filming. You can come back after you’ve recovered.” He had been keeping tabs on Joana’s performance over the past few days.

Joana’s actions stirred up quite a buzz.

But in reality TV, you need characters like her. Some people love watching Astrid’s jack-of-all-trades act, others get a kick out of Joana’s blunders. Without some drama and tension, the show would be a total failure.

However, Joana’s poisoning incident was a curveball no one saw coming.

If Astrid wasn’t such a capable person when it came to medical stuff, they could’ve been in hot water.

Thinking about this, Maddox said, “Joana, both Mr. Naylor and Astrid warned you about drinking the water from the underground river. Why did you do it anyway?” “The water in the river looked cleaner than the collected rainwater. But I didn’t realize… Joana’s voice trailed off, guilt-ridden. “Mr. Maddox, I really don’t want to quit. I think I’m holding up okay. I’ll be back on my feet after a good night’s rest.”

“Director, Bernice is on the line!” Jack ran over with his phone, sounding amazed. The superstar herself! The legendary Bernice!”

Maddox was taken aback but quickly picked up the call. “Hello, Bernice”

Bernice said, “Mr. Maddox, I’ve been following your show. I’m a huge fan of this type of program. I saw you guys ran into some trouble, and I happen to have some free time. I’d love to join your show, if that’s okay.”

Maddox was surprised. After a few seconds of stunned silence, he quickly said, “It would be an honor for me and the crew. When can you come? I’ll pick you up myself!”
