Chapter 717: Chapter 716: I’ve Always Wanted a Little Sister Since I Was Young

But those few "head pats" from Gary White made her uncertain again.

Generally speaking, men would only "pat" the heads of the women they liked.

If Gary White didn’t like her, how would he explain his actions just now?

If he did like her, she would have to clarify early on.

She was a married woman.

She wouldn’t entertain flirtations with other men, much less pretend to be single to give others a chance.

Although there were no shortage of such people in the industry who would hide their partners for the sake of their careers, she wouldn’t be one of them.

Moreover, if she dared to do so, she didn’t know how Ashton Heath would deal with her.

"And, my husband is a very narrow-minded person. If he finds out about other men... he will get very angry. Director White should know that my husband and the young master of the Luther family are good friends. You are also good friends with the young master of the Luther family. So, doing this... wouldn’t it be bad?"

At first, Gary White felt confused.

After listening for a while, he finally understood.

When he realized that the young girl beside him actually thought he wanted to take advantage of her, he first found it incredible, then couldn’t help but laugh.

Probably, Joanna Lawrence was the first actress to worry about being taken advantage of by him.

Others were mostly those who actively wanted to be taken advantage of.

This was the first time encountering such a situation. Apart from being amusing, he felt it was quite interesting.

Well, it’s good.

Finally, there was an actress worried about being taken advantage of by him.

Instead of him worrying about being taken advantage of by those actresses himself.

"Joanna Lawrence," Gary White smiled, then put away the smile on his face and said seriously, "Do you think I have ill intentions towards you and want to take advantage of you?"

Joanna Lawrence bit her lip, mustered up the courage, and nodded: "I think Director White’s actions just now were a bit unusual. I can’t think of any other possibilities besides this one."

"Well, it’s normal for you to have doubts."

There was no hint of anger in Gary White’s voice: "I’m actually quite strange too. You just asked me if I would do this to other actresses, and my answer was, no."

"As for why I would do it to you... I think it’s probably because I’m being controlled by my inner impulse to be a big brother."

This answer left Joanna Lawrence looking confused.

What does "the desire to be a big brother" mean?

White seemed to notice her confusion and explained, "I’ve always wanted a younger sister since I was a child, but my mom has never been willing to have more children. She said that I originally had a sister, but due to some special circumstances, we lost contact with her."

"My mom said she already had a daughter in her life and didn’t plan to have another."

"Thus, the inability to grow up with a sister has always been a regret of mine. Maybe it’s because you give me the feeling of being a big brother, so I would unconsciously make actions like the ones just now."

"That is an expression of a brother loving a sister."

"You don’t have to worry that I’ll... try to take advantage of you. I, Gary White, am not such a despicable person, and I wouldn’t try to take advantage of a woman who already has someone."

After hearing his explanation, Joanna Lawrence immediately believed him.

Because she could feel that Gary White wasn’t lying.

Because... she had a similar feeling.

Now she finally understood why she didn’t mind Gary White’s touch.

It’s because when Gary White patted her head, it felt like a brother patting his sister’s head.
