SWNOVELS Chapter 1493
Chapter 1493 People from A Different World
Standing at the school gate and looking at the police cars coming in and out, Beryl suddenly felt very confused. Recently, the emotions that had been suppressed in her heart had been rushing out. She had to try her best to restrain herself from losing her mind.
She began to comfort herself. "What if it's a misunderstanding? What if the reporters are just trying to attract attention?"
Marcellus treated her so well that she should believe him instead of suspecting that he was on the same side as others.
"That's right. Calm down. He's already very busy. Don't bother him anymore. If it's not true, Marcellus will explain it to me personally."
Thinking of this, she suppressed the urge to question him from the bottom of her heart. It was her first time in a relationship, so everything was novel to her.
She had a strong possessiveness and felt that Marcellus was already hers. No one could touch him. Hence, she had forgotten that such a man would always have many women by his side. Even if he did not take the initiative, other women would.
There were countless people who wanted to attach themselves to him.
While she was lost in her thoughts, her phone suddenly rang. She immediately put it under her nose and looked at it. Unfortunately, it was not Marcellus, but Wallis.
She could feel the trembling in her palm. Previously, she had not flinched even when Marcellus's family had found her. However, at this moment, she really did not dare to face it.
However, she had to answer the phone. Amir had just had an operation and had not fully recovered yet. If she did not answer the phone, it would only make Wallis more anxious. When she really arrived in Jewel City, it would be a big deal.
Even if she was scolded, she didn't want her family to be anxious.
Thus, she took a deep breath and picked up the call.
"Hello, Mom?"
She tried her best to make her voice not sound so weak. Unexpectedly, on the other end of the phone, Wallis did not curse or complain. Instead, she was silent for a few seconds and asked very calmly, "Have you read the news."
Beryl's heart skipped a beat. She did not know what Wallis was thinking. She just honestly replied, "Yes."
"What do you think."
She bit her lip and thought for a moment before she said in a low voice, "Mom, that's a misunderstanding. Marcellus's family has been increasing his workload recently. It's inevitable for him to have social interactions. It's not what you think..."
Wallis was not in a hurry to expose her. She asked her step by step, "Did Marcellus tell you this?"
Beryl had never been good at lying, so she was immediately stumped by the question. Even through the phone, she still blushed when she spoke again. "Yes, yes."
"Beryl, you still haven't given up, have you?"
Beryl was speechless.
This time, Beryl didn't say anything. To be exact, she was rendered speechless by the question.
She also knew very well that Wallis knew that she was lying. She was too ashamed to show her face.
"Do you really have to wait until one day you really suffer a loss and get hurt before you understand that all this is for your own good?" Wallis let out a long sigh as if she was completely disappointed in her. "That man's family background is definitely not as simple as you think. Beryl, you and he are not from the same world. If it weren't for your former work, would you have interacted with him? No, you two live different lives. There won't be a good result if you insist on being together."
