My ex-husband is seeking a second chance

Marc suddenly spoke like a thunderbolt out of the blue. Everyone in the room was momentarily stunned, and Pearl furrowed

her brow

Connor turned his head to look at her ex–husband.

Tin twenty years old,” he said.

Just twenty

“So young.” Marc glanced in Pearl’s direction, and Pearl met his gaze. For some reason, she detected a hint of mockery, implying that she was an older person pursuing a younger one.

Pearl felt a surge of anger and was about to retort, but then Connor calmly spoke, “Well, maybe, Uncle, you just look older by comparison.”

The other party was left speechless.

Pearl could not help but want to laugh. After all, he was an older man, over 30 years old! A man!

Mare was not provoked and just said with amusement, “Since you call me uncle, you should call the person next to you ‘aunt‘ instead. Otherwise, wouldn’t I have inadvertently taken advantage of her?”

Pearl did not seem worried and turned her head to call out without any

by reservations, “Uncle.”

Marc was stunned, silent.

He looked at Pearl incredulously, finding it absurd, and chuckled, “What did you call me?”

Uncle, Pearl replied with a mischievous smile.

Pearl had never addressed anyone as “uncle‘ so sincerely. She looked at Marc with innocent eyes and said from the bottom of her heart, “You’re quite old.”

Marc felt a sting. He was only six years older than her, after all.

Was he really that old?

However, Connor looked at Pearl seriously, saying, “Only the unattractive ones are called ‘aunts. A beautiful woman like you will always be a young lady.

Now, that’s the way to talk!

Pearl gently patted Connor’s head and smiled, saying, “Good boy.”

Marc’s eyes darkened as anger welled up within him. His gaze, sharp as a blade, passed over Pearl as she patted the head of this little brat. He could not help but wish to shave off the boy’s hair and send him off to become a young monk!

Mason and Thomas sat in the back seat in fear. They lowered their heads and pretended to be working on their phones, not daring to look up.

What kind of battleground was this???

They wanted to get out of the car. Copyright Nôv/el/Dra/ma.Org.

There was a brief silence in the car.

Mare pursed his thin lips slightly and continued to question Connor, “Are you still in school?”

“Yes. I’m a sophomore in college.

A Nanston?

“Yes”

11:10 AM

“Which university?”

“Sirenum University.”

“Oh.”

Marc paused, and the carriage fell silent again.

Then, he asked casually, “What’s your name?”

Connor paused for a moment. His clear, cold eyes turned to Marc, and his tone was chilly. “Connor Smith.”

Mare briefly thought about the name and speculated on his relationship with Peter.

“Are there other people in your family?”

This time, before Connor could answer, Pearl could not take it anymore. She glanced at Marc coldly. “Are you done! Are you checking his ancestorial lineage!”

Through Connor, Marc’s dark and deep gaze landed on Pearl’s face. His cold eyes took on a hint of gentleness, and he tugged at the corner of his mouth. “Aren’t I just chatting with the kid?”

“The kid is not in the mood to talk to you.”

Pearl’s expression was indifferent, without anger. “Either shut up or get out of the car.”

So. Marc fell silent.

Soon, they arrived at the airport. Two private jets were parked in the vast open space. Mare originally wanted to ride on Pearl’s plane, but Pearl did not give him the chance this time. She quickly pulled Connor onto the plane and closed the door.

Looking at the tightly shut door, Mare stood where he was. As the cold wind from the airport blew, he felt a little dizzy. Thomas, standing nearby, looked at his boss and thought he looked like a wife who had been mistreated in a feudal society. “Mr. Males, there’s something I don’t know if I should say.” Thomas hesitated.

Marc had a cold expression. Then don’t say it.”

If he did not say it correctly, it was obvious that it would not be a good thing.

Thomas touched his nose. He had been a little impulsive just now. At this moment, he only felt lucky. If he had said it, he might not even be able to get on the plane. He would be sent to the South Pole to watch penguins.

This was because what he wanted to say was that bootlickers usually did not end well.

The plane took off smoothly, and there was a sense of leaving all the noise and chaos behind. Pearl felt like a weight had been

lifted off her chest.

She adjusted her seat and lay down, feeling a bit tired.

The temperature in the cabin was relatively low. She was about to ask the flight attendant for a blanket when Connor, who had just walked back from the washroom, brought back a blanket. “Pearl, cover yourself with it. Don’t catch a cold.”

“Thank you.” Pearl got up to take it, but Connor said, “Tll do it.”

He bent down to cover her with the blanket and asked in a clear voice, “Pearl, do you want to sleep?”

Tm a little sleepy but don’t really want to sleep.

Connor blinked his doe eyes. “Do you want to watch a movie?”

Pearl smiled. “Sure.”

Connor found a suspenseful movie and took many snacks from his bag, placing them in front of Pearl. They were all local specialties of Wenstin

Pearl picked up a bag of dried squid and enjoyed it with relish.

The ambiance turned damp, dark, and suspenseful as the movie began. Connor said to Pearl, “Pearl if you’re scared, you can grab my arm. It’s okay. I’m not afraid of pain.”

Pearl looked at him in puzzlement. “Huh?”

Connor pursed his lips and explained that his roommates often took their girlfriends to watch suspense or horror movies, When they returned, their arms were covered in bruises and scratches from being clawed or scratched by their girlfriends because they were so scared.

When Pearl heard this, she found it strange but amusing. The corners of her lips curled up slightly. “Oh. I don’t think I’ll be that way.

After all, she used to play daring games as a child, often pretending to be a ghost to scare her other brothers. She portrayed all sorts of menacing characters, and the scenes in the movie were not as thrilling as the games they played in their childhood.

However, she was engrossed in the movie. For one, it had been long since she had been so focused on watching a film Secondly, it brought back many memories of her childhood.

The thought of Noah and Hubert running around the yard in fear of the ghosts they had portrayed made her burst into laughter.

In the movie, the female lead, now under the influence of a sinister force, was maniacally laughing at the camera. Connor was gripping a bag of potato chips, nervous and focused. Suddenly, he heard laughter coming from beside him, and with a start,

squeezed the bag of chips, causing it to burst open, scattering chips all over the place.

There seemed to be a sheep’s cry in the air.

Perhaps Connor’s stunned expression was too lips, and the curve of her lips kept rising.

cute. After getting off the plane, Pearl’s smile remained at the corners of her

As they entered the airport, they ran into Marc and his group, who were waiting at the exit.

The moment Marc saw Pearl and Connor approaching with cheerful expressions, he felt a pang of jealousy.

Upon seeing Mare, the smile on Pearl’s face gradually faded, and she tried to pass by him as if he were just air.

Just before they were about to pass each other, Mare spoke first, his voice slightly heavy. “Peter’s fans and reporters have surrounded the area outside the airport. We can’t just walk out like this.”

He lowered his gaze to Pearl’s outfit and makeup, his lips pursed slightly, and said, “It might be necessary to inconvenience
