Chapter 1521
Chapter 1521 When Will It Come to an End?
The butler immediately stopped talking and bowed. "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have said that."
Sir. Perkins took a deep breath and quietly clenched his fists. When he thought of what had happened more than a decade ago, his eyes darkened. "No matter what he thinks, I have to stop him from being with that girl. It's not good for him to have feelings for her. It will only become a weakness and a burden."
Now that he had the chance to separate the two of them, he absolutely could not be merciful.
"Who should we distribute the information to, Sir. Perkins," the butler asked, knowing that there were many enemies of the Perkins Family.
Sir. Perkins thought for a moment and came up with two feasible candidates. One was the Dutt Family in the south of the city, and the other was the Toby Family, which had just gained some momentum recently. After thinking about it for a while, he still chose the Toby Family.
The Dutt Family had a deep-rooted influence in Jewel City. For so many years, although they were not on the same level as the Perkins Family, they were not easy to deal with. In comparison, the Toby Family was easier to control.
The butler nodded. "I'll give the order now."
Days passed, but Stacey was still standing in the limelight of the public. In the past two months, she had been exposed continuously. People in the outside world thought that she had suddenly become the focus of attention, but only she knew how much it cost.
She couldn't clarify or admit that these words restricted her in all aspects. On the one hand, she had to bear the responsibility of being Marcellus's rumored girlfriend, and on the other hand, she had to worry about her own safety.
It wasn't that she hadn't communicated with Marcellus before. If he insisted on using her as a shield, could he provide her with some security? For example, bodyguards, even a little, could make her feel a little more at ease.
Unfortunately, the other party had no intention of protecting her at all. He had never taken the initiative to ask her how she was doing. As time went by, Stacey almost broke down. When would such a life come to an end?
Stacey was awarded the title of Internet celebrity at an award ceremony. It could be said that it was a very light award, but this was the first time she had appeared in such an award ceremony. Countless eyes under the stage were looking at her, and most of the people in the circle showed disdain. No one had a good impression of a C-list star who came from a scandal. Most of the female stars were jealous, while the male stars wore colored glasses.
However, Stacey didn't care about all this. What she was working on now was much more serious than this, so she didn't have the mood to guess the reactions of others at all. Therefore, after stepping onto the stage, she said the following sentence with great sincerity-
"This is the first time I have stepped onto the stage of the award ceremony in three years. I know that a lot of things have happened recently, which will make many people stick a lot of labels on me. In fact, I used to be like this, but after experiencing some things, I understand that everything can't be controlled by myself. I will never know what will happen in the next second. The only thing I can do is take care of the current situation. These days, my mentality has changed a lot. Compared with the endless glory, I miss the days when I was not focused before. But everything has passed. I have become the current me. It's accidental and inevitable. I just hope you can give me more encouragement because I have to go on now. Thank you all."
