My ex-husband is seeking a second chance

Contor save that Prait’s expression wasn’t right, and he couldn’t help but feel concerned. He asked with concern, “What happened?”

His intuition told him that it must be related to his brother.

However, Pearl told him not to worry and instructed him to take good care of Peter in the hospital. She then left with Mason and Vera for the film

Watching their departing figures, Connor couldn’t help but feel a sense of desolation. Despite such a significant event, he couldn’t be of any help. He could only watch as his sister worked tirelessly.

In her eyes, he was probably still just a child.

Based on Vera’s statement and Mason’s investigation, Pearl roughly understood the ins and outs of Peter’s leg injury.

This time. Peter had joined the cast of a historical action film called “Moonlight Over The Sea” directed by the renowned director Caleb. The film blended elements of martial arts, royal power struggles, mystery, action, and romance.

The setting was set during the ancient Tudor period. After King Hanwick ascended the throne, his two uncles, Duke Nojus and Duke Henrikas, relying on their military achievements, refused to accept their nephew’s rule. They wanted to usurp the throne and sought to seize power.

Duke Nejas commanded his adopted son. Dangelo Sutton, to infiltrate the Royal Guard Dangelo had to become the personal bodyguard of King Hanwick step by step. The story revolved around his mission to assassinate the king when the opportunity arose.

To authentically portray Duke Nojus training his elite warriors, the production team went to great lengths to find a suitable location at Mount

Peter played the second male lead, the adopted son of Duke Nojus, and also the leader of the Royal Guard, Dangelo

This was one of the more challenging roles he had taken on since entering the entertainment industry.

“Moonlight Over The Sea” was Caleb’s first film after his return to directing, and it was produced with the investment of Woolery Starry Media.

Naturally. Pearl had to make sure her own people got as many benefits as possible, Hence, many artists from Woolery Starry Media took on some smaller roles in this film.

Not long after Peer joined Woolery Starry Media, Pearl initially intended to cast him in the role of the third male lead, Cameron Lawson, who was the junior of the second male lead, Dangelo She felt it suited Peter’s cool demeanor and was a relatively likable character.

However, after three rounds of auditions, Caleb decided to cast Peter in the more complex role of Dangelo, upgrading him to the second male lead. As a result, the original actor for the second male lead, Gene Giles, was then reassigned to the third male lead.

It was where the problem came from

Usually, it was quate common for productions to change or adjust roles. Even the main male lead went through several changes, and ultimately, it was decided that the acclaimed actor Chester Mcdowell, who was on par with Henry, would play King Hanwick in the film.

However, Crne, who was originally assigned to the second male lead, became unhappy about the change. During a scene of a mountain fight they had filmed, he “accedentally pushed Peter and caused him to fall down the slope.

h was mevitable that there would be accidents in fighting scenes, and Gene, having a background in stunt work, should have been able to handle it. However, this unexperted incident occurred.

The surveillance footage didn’t show any obvious signs of foul play. Moreover, given the recent surge in Gene’s popularity, he was arranged by the producer in this film. Many people had noticed this shady arrangement, but Gene was known to be humble and kind, so no one said anything All content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.

They all held onto the belief of “better to avoid unnecessary trouble” and were hesitant to speak up without solid evidence.

Although Peter was admitted to the hospital, the Fiming had to continue. If Peter’s leg injury couldn’t heal, there might be a need to find another actor for the second male lead role.

When Pearl and her team arrived at the film set, they found the crew in the midst of shooting a night scene featuring Gene, who played Cameron, the third male lead. It was a scene with Duke Nojus and also a pivotal moment for Cameron.

As the artificial rain poured down the mountainside, the crew worked diligently. Pearl, the sponsor, quietly appeared on the scene, standing in a corner without disturbing the shoot.

Caleb, seated behind the monitor, furrowed his brows and shouted into the microphone, “Cameron, you’re here to seek justice for your senior, not

Tim sorry, Mr. Pelerion.

Gene worked hard to adjust his facial expressions. He wielded his sword in the rain, rolling in the mud time and time again. It took a couple of takes before he finally got it right

After the scene, an assistant immediately handed him a towel and hot water. Without using them himself, Gene first passed them to the middle- aged actor playing the Duke Nojus. They chatted happily for a few moments, and everything seemed very harmonious.

Gene’s adeptness at handling situations and his gentlemanly demeanor suggested he wasn’t the type to engage in underhanded tactics.

Pearl observed the situation. She waited until the scene was finished before approaching from behind to greet Caleb.

As Gene was conversing with the middle–aged actor, expressing his thoughts on the challenges of being an actor, his agent came over, subtly signaling to him.

The sponsor is here. She’s sitting next to the director,”

Gene looked up to see an elegantly dressed young woman. She exuded an air of sophistication despite her simple black–and–white dressing style. Caleb was widely recognized for his commanding presence, yet the delicate woman sitting beside him exuded an aura that was equally formidable. What was even more surprising was Caleb, who was typically reserved and composed, now he was a father looking as his beloved daughter.

With his slightly squinted eyes, Gene asked his agent in a deliberately casual tone. “Is that the new boss of Woolery Starry Media

The agent said. “She’s Miss Woolery, the heir to the Woolery Group. She brought Starfield Media down by herself a while back.”

Compared to going to meetings with her dad at the company or attending lectures at school, she preferred following her mom around, shuttling between film sets, and looking at all sorts of strange things.

Caleb reminisced about Pearl’s childhood, gesturing at her height. “Back then, you were only this big sisting on my lap. When an actor cried, would cry along and when they laughed, you’d laugh. You had such strong empathy. I told your mom to groom you into a child star, but she
