SWNOVELS Chapter 1491
Chapter 1491 The Lowliest Request
What he wanted was exposure. He didn't need to be known by the public, but he must be known by those who were keeping an eye on him.
What the people in the entertainment circle wanted most was exposure, so it was convenient to deal with it.
The assistant immediately replied, "Got it. Send someone to the office tomorrow."
"Yeah."
Marcellus responded with a faint nod. In the end, he suddenly thought of something and said, "By the way, this matter must be kept a secret. Don't tell anyone if they ask." The assistant was in a dilemma. "If Miss. Juliet asks..."
"Don't tell her," Marcellus said without hesitation. "I'll explain it to her myself."
"Yes, Mr. Perkins."
After hanging up the phone, Marcellus stood by the railing on the second floor and looked down at the living room. The square pattern was like a cage covering him.
In the past, he treated women like toys. No matter who it was, as long as they performed well at the banquet, he would not be stingy with his sacrifices. It was just that he had no feelings for them. However, ever since he had Beryl, he didn't even bother to look at other women.
It was not that he suddenly changed his character. In fact, he had been tired of playing with her for a long time. Unfortunately, there had never been a person who could make him completely calm down. He had waited for so long, and now he finally got it, but the reality was joking with him, so he had to return to his previous state.
Even if it was an act, he had to put on an act.
He thought that he was a proud person and would never force himself to do what he didn't want to do. It was unnecessary, and the result would not be very good, but now he had to force himself. There was always a wave of anger in his chest that could not be calmed down, and he was very flustered. He had never been so cowardly since he was a child, but when he thought of doing all this to protect Beryl, he felt that it was worth it.
So, what if he was angry? As long as she was safe, as long as his girl was not implicated, it would not be the worst result.
There was no sound in the quiet corridor. Behind the door, Beryl was sleeping soundly, but Marcellus stood rooted to the spot for a long time.
His mind was full of what might happen between them in the future. The tension of treading on thin ice made him have to carefully protect this relationship, because if he took a wrong step, he might lose her. Marcellus could care less about anything, but he could not bear to lose Beryl. He could not let her go.
He couldn't imagine the feeling of losing her was thousands of times worse than Sir. Perkins asking him to return to the Perkins Family to take over everything.
After 33 years, he was already very tired.
This kind of life seemed to be free, but it had never really belonged to him. There was always a pair of eyes staring behind him, waiting for this moment to find an opportunity to threaten him to go back. Right now, the only thing that was driving Marcellus forward was the name "Beryl".
In the face of the falling light, Marcellus gently closed his eyes. At this moment, he was praying in his heart that Sir. Perkins would keep his word. He hoped that when he returned to the Perkins Family, he would really let go of Beryl and fulfill their relationship.
As long as she was by his side, so what if he became a puppet of the Perkins Family for the rest of his life?
