My ex-husband is seeking a second chance

Chapter 138

Pearl’s meaning was very clear. The Males Group could not afford to pay for her appearance.

Ada secretly regreted that the collaboration between the two families could not be reached, but she could not expose Pearl’s identity. She rejected Males Croup’s request for collaboration on the grounds that Master Marlene’s schedule was already full.

On the other side, Pearl did not take Males Croup seriously at all. She was focused on watching the advertisement shoot behind the monitor with a frown.

The director’s expression appeared somewhat tense. “What’s going on with these two people? It’s fine to film separately, but it seem odd to film together.

Pearl also took notice of this and directed her gaze towards Henry and Donna standing in front of the blackout backdrop.

These two big shots endorsed two different main products.

Henry was wearing the key pendant called Key to My Heart around his neck. The white shirt made him look indescribably sunny and handsome. His chest muscles were faintly exposed at the open collar. The female designers beside him kept fanning themselves with their palms, blushing.

What was even more surprising was that the Best Actor Henry, who had always shown his black hair and never dyed it, had dyed his hair orange- red today. It complemented the orange–red The Lady Of Shalost in the middle of the pendant he was wearing.

The elegant gentleman had become a handsome man. Henry was simply so handsome that everyone would be stunned by him.

Certainly, this was the outcome of Pearl’s earnest request. It took her a considerable amount of time to persuade Henry to participate in the film shoot.

Donna, who was standing beside Henry, did not back down.

She adorned herself in a pale yellow dress, a stark departure from her typically striking and daring fashion. Her ensemble lacked any additional accessories, and her once–flowing wavy locks had been trimmed short, featuring a vibrant yellow rose nestled by her temple. The alluring beauty she usually portrayed had transformed into a more diminutive and endearing look.

The ring called “The Queen‘ was casually placed on her hand. With a slight raise of her hand, Donna was

a queen.

The promotional photos that the two of them had taken just now were very good. They perfectly explained the design concept of the product, but when put together, it was unknown what went wrong, but there was a hint of awkwardness.

Even though the two of them were working hard to operate, there was something

crux of the problem at a glance. He quietly said to Pearl, “The two of them must have fallen out.”

The sharp–eyed director could tell the cru

In such a state, no matter how much they filmed, they would not be able to achieve a perfect effect. It was almost time for dinner, so Pearl simply asked everyone to go out for dinner and stop filming.

Donna and the staff entered the dressing room

Henry stared at Donna’s back in a daze. Suddenly, a bottle of water flashed before his eyes. Henry came back to his senses and took it from Pearl. He said apologetically, “It’s my fault for delaying the filming progress

Professional actors should not bring their personal feelings to the set Henry acted normally in front of the camera as usual even after his mother’s car accident. But today, he was completely out of control.

Pearl brought Henry to the sofa and sat down. She asked calmly, “Did you quarrel?”

Henry took a sip of the water and said lightly. “It’s not considered a quarrel. I wanted to getback together with Donna, but she rejected me.”

Pearl crossed her legs and felt curious,

“Who asked for a breakup?”

Henry tiled his head and glanced at his gossipy sister. He smiled helplessly and dotingly, but his smile was a little bitter. “She asked for it.”

Pearl raised her eyebrows slightly. “Why?”

Henry looked at her without saying anything

Pearl had suddenly realized something. She suddenly remembered what Donna had said to Henry in “You’re not related by blood. What kind of siblings are you? You’re just taking each other as a back–up in the

you think I don’t know that you’re using me as a substitute?

“Oh,” Pearl replied indifferently. I remember now. Donna thought that the person you like is me, so she was unhappy. But haven’t you alrearly explained it clearly? Could it be that she’s still jealous of me?”

Henry shook his head. “It has nothing to do with you now. She said she’s not good enough for me. She doesn’t want me to ruin my future because of her.”

Hearing this, Pearl understood.

“Henry. I don’t have a deep relationship with Donna, but I’ve interacted with her a few times and can understand she’s extremely strong in her career, but fragile emotionally.”

Pearl paused for a moment. “In other words, in terms of career, she can be as domineering as a queen, but in terms of relationships, she is extremely insecure and hopes to be pampered like a princess”

This was also why she chose Donna to endorse the product “The

thought about it. “Sense of security!”

Pearl shook her head. “A sense of security is too general. She grew up in such a family. She definitely lacks a sense of security, but you can’t give her this sense of security. She can only rely on herself.”

Henry listened very carefully and was very engrossed. He smiled gently and said, “You’re an expert who has studied for a master’s degree in psychology. Help me analyze it.”

Pearl coughed lightly and began to drop the bag. “According to the theory of the psychologist Freud, the personality characteristics of adults are the result of repression of sexual instinctive activity in childhood.

Heary could not take it anymore and interrupted her, “Speak human language.”

Pearl smiled gently, “In layman’s terms, the original family has a huge impact on a person, which is often throughout their entire life. Those who have been harmed in their childhood and are extremely insecure are often willing to live in an environment they are familiar with. They would rather be injured than step out of the painful past and try to seek comfort in the situation they foresee.

“That’s why Donna was unwilling to leave at first when Starfield Media sucked and Paul treated her so badly. It’s not that she was willing to degrade herself, but she had stayed in Starfield Media for many years and was already familiar with that environment. She felt that it was a place she could predict and control.”

Henry frowned. “But she still took this step in the end.”

“Yes. It took a lot of courage for her to take this step. I think the reason why she was willing to trust me and sign with Woolery Starry Media is mostly because of you.”

d his smile was clear and bright. “That’s for sure”

Henry’s furrowed brows relaxed, and his

Pearl smiled and patted Henry on the shoulder.

“Henry, do you know what your greatest advantage is?

Henry raised an eyebrow, “Handsome!”

“You’re so handsome that the whole world knows about that. Do you still need me to brag about you? Pearl rolled her eyes at him,

The siblings laughed at the same time.

Pearl said seriously. “Your greatest advantage is your gentleness”

Henry was a person who engraved gentleness into his bones.

-Henry’s fans summarized him with He’s like the sun that can warm everyone around him.”

Henry was good enough In front of screen, but

at he was even better behind the camera.

Pearl sighed and said, “Henry, I learned how to be a warm person from you. Gentle people are the strongest. No woman can resist them. If you really like Donna, then use your gentleness to warm her up and protect her.”

She said playfully, “You can transfer your tenderness to me to her. I won’t be jealous anyway

Henry reached out to touch her head and smiled, “I understand.”

But to brothers, their sisters were like their sun.
