SWNOVELS Chapter 1486
Chapter 1486 Never Leave Him
"You're threatening me." Her words were exactly the same as Marcellus'.
Sir. Perkins smiled. "Even so, what can you do?"
"I can't do anything." Beryl stood where she was, neither servile nor overbearing. "I know that for someone of your status, my existence is very insignificant, but I won't be a coward. At least not on this matter." She sounded very determined, as if she had the backbone to stay calm even if a mountain collapsed in front of her. Sir. Perkins didn't have much opinion of her at first, but now he couldn't help but ask, "What makes you think you can hold on?"
To take what?
Beryl thought about it. Indeed, she did not have anything to persist on. As long as Sir. Perkins gave the word; she might face the possibility of losing everything. However...
"If I give up, wouldn't it be a waste of Marcellus's trust and effort?" Even if she didn't know that Marcellus had accepted the request of Sir. Perkins for her, everything he had done for her in the past was enough. Sir. Perkins couldn't help but be stunned by her words. Back then, he had made things difficult for Marcellus's mother. Although she had insisted on it, her insistence was completely different from that of Beryl. This girl really had a tenacious spirit.
Apart from anything else, Sir. Perkins appreciated this very much, but he said,
"You can only blame your family background. No matter what, the Perkins Family will never accept you. Give up as soon as possible. What I said to you is not a joke."
When Beryl heard the words "family background", her expression darkened for a moment, but she quickly returned to normal. Even at this point, she did not forget to say, "Sorry to disturb you. Marcellus is still waiting for me to go back. I'll take my leave first."
After that, she left the room and went straight to the point as she came.
Sir. Perkins looked in the direction where the girl had left thoughtfully.
After leaving the old house, Beryl went straight back to Marcellus's villa. She had not informed him in advance today, so there was no one at home. It was particularly quiet.
She had been attending classes at school for the past few days and rarely came back. Usually, even if there was no one at home, the property management would arrange for people to clean up. Even if it was food, the chef could come with just a call.
But now...
The table in the living room had been covered with dust, and the curtains were drawn on both sides. It seemed that no one had touched it for a long time. There were almost no fresh vegetables or fruits to eat in the refrigerator of the dining room.
If one had to describe it, then it could roughly be summed up in one word: lifeless.
If it weren't for the fact that she knew that someone used to live here and it was very lively, she would have thought that this was a newly renovated house.
Standing in this luxurious villa, she actually felt a sense of desolation.
"He hasn't been home these days, has he?"
Beryl could roughly guess what was going on. She let out a long sigh. Thinking of what Sir. Perkins had said to her today, which was so harsh to her, she guessed that he must have made things difficult for Marcellus.
He should also be working very hard. On the one hand, he had to work, and on the other hand, he had to take care of her emotions.
All of a sudden, the anger that she had been hiding disappeared and was replaced by heartache.
Thinking about it from another angle, everything he did was for her.
In the current situation, she was the only one on his side, so she had no reason to complain about him.
