Love in the Limelight novel Chapter 501

Maddox's irritation was boiling over, because he knew Joana had only succeeded with her little stunt because she had the backing of the production crew.

In a swift motion, Maddox flicked on his flashlight and beamed it towards the commotion, revealing Joana gnawing on a chicken drumstick right in the line of sight of everyone.

Online viewers stared at the screen, watching the woman scarf down her food like there was no tomorrow, and were at a loss for words.

[Holy smokes, this chick!"

[Screenshot this, man! Let's show her what goes around comes around.]

[Where are all those who were bashing me for backing Astar? Don't you play dead now—come out and apologize!]

[I was just starting to like her a bit.]

[Maddox is legit mad, huh? Joana's toast now, no one's saving her.]

Joana was dumbstruck; she never thought Maddox would actually track her down here.

By the time she realized something was off, Maddox was already storming up to her, fury written all over his face.

"Mr. Maddox," Joana quivered, attempting to bluff her way out, "I was just so hungry, I thought I'd sneak away for a quick bite, that's all. I didn't mean to cause any trouble, I'm sorry, Mr. Maddox, I was just trying to have a little snack in secret."

Maddox retorted, "Have a little snack in secret? Joana, take a good look at me. Do I look like a fool to you?"

Joana was at a loss for words, her mouth greasy and chicken-flavored, making for an awkward sight.

Maddox said, "Joana, my show isn't satisfying for you, as it's not fit for a socialite like you. You're free to leave now. I'll make sure to pay you every bit of the agreed price. Please leave our program."

At hearing this, Joana's eyes immediately welled up with tears. "Maddox, I'm sorry, truly. Please, let me stay."
