Chapter 1515
Chapter 1515 Pray for Herself
From the moment Stacey was targeted by Marcellus, she should have been vigilant instead of allowing herself to enter such a dangerous situation. Now that everything was too late, there was nothing she could do to save it.
There was no turning back. From the moment the news was released, Stacey had been implicated.
Stacey almost broke down when she heard that. She stood up with bloodshot eyes and swept everything in front of her to the ground. She screamed with all her might, "Ah!"
She had been complacent not long ago, and her career had made new progress, but in the blink of an eye, she had lost her life.
Stacey hated herself for being the target. She hated herself for not being able to see the true colors of the matter.
She had no choice. Even if death was ahead of her, she could only be pushed forward.
Despair, panic, confusion. All kinds of emotions enveloped her. Stacey was scared and struggled, but it was all in vain because no matter what, the game had begun.
Seeing that she was going crazy, Mr. Bush did not stop her. Instead, he turned around and pretended not to hear anything.
Let her blow off some steam. It's hard for anyone to digest such a thing. Stacey can only pray for herself.
On the other side, after arriving at the villa, Beryl had not been idle. She had personally cooked a table of dishes. Although the chef had sent them over, she still added two more dishes that had a light taste and were suitable for dinner.
After cooking, she lay on the sofa in the living room and read a book. When she saw that it was past six o'clock, drowsiness came over her. The white paper and black characters became black-and-white notes, like a soft lullaby, which made her involuntarily doze off.
At nine o'clock in the evening, Marcellus arrived at the villa in a hurry. He didn't stop working all afternoon in order to finish his work as soon as possible so that he could come back to accompany the little girl. When he got out of the car and saw the lights from the living room and dining room, he felt warm in his heart. He was no longer facing the darkness in the room. Even the way he opened the door was a little faster than usual.
He couldn't wait to see her and hug her.
After unlocking the fingerprint lock, Marcellus pushed the door open and went in. He saw a beautiful figure lying on the sofa at a glance.
Her petite body seemed even more illusory in the light. She had her back to the door, and her breathing was very steady. When she walked in, she saw the book in her hand. She was asleep, but her fingers were still clenched.
Marcellus turned his head and saw that the food on the table was already cold. There were two sets of cutleries. They were clean, and she had not eaten yet. She was waiting for him.
It was almost nine o'clock. Didn't this silly girl know to fill her stomach first?
Marcellus sighed helplessly, reached out to gently push her shoulder, and woke her up. "Beryl?" He called out to Beryl.
Beryl had not slept very well. When she heard the sound, she opened her eyes in a daze. Against the light, she looked at the tall figure standing next to the sofa. She was stunned for a moment before she realized that it was Marcellus.
She rubbed her eyes and sat up. Her nasal voice was a little heavy. "Marcellus."
"Yes, do you still want to sleep?" Marcellus asked in a gentle voice.
