Chapter 1476 Deliberately Hiding from Her
That night, Bert deliberately waited until the latter half of the night before returning to the bedroom. Although he
took a cold shower, he had no self-control in front of her. He was afraid that he would be impulsive again just in
case.
The bedroom door was pushed open, leaving only a wall lamp emitting a warm yellow light in the room. In the
middle of the bed, the girl curled up and lay on one side, and fell asleep.
The man breathed a sigh of relief, gently closed the door, and carefully walked to the bed. His eyes fell on her quiet
little face and his chest was warm.
Even if he couldn't do anything, even if he could just watch quietly, it was enough for him.
He had never been a person who believed in love. When he met Evelyn, he didn't have the impulse to calm down.

But now that Alivia had appeared in his life, he didn't know when he had started to develop feelings for her. Slowly
walking to this day, he had already had the thought of being with her to the end.
He didn't want to let go of her hand. Even if he had to exchange for more than 30 years of glory and wealth, he
wouldn't hesitate.
After that kidnapping, her personality changed a lot. He had consulted a world-class psychologist, and he had said
that this was also a kind of emotional stress reaction.
It meant that her character had not changed at all. What she was showing now was just to resist the memories that
she was unwilling to face.
No matter whether she changed her mind or not, as long as she was willing to try to accept him, no matter how
long it took, no matter what it became, he could wait.
Life was so long. Once you made up your mind to follow someone, time became the most important thing.
He could wait.
The man's gaze became softer and softer. Unfortunately, the girl sleeping soundly on the bed didn't know that he
had bent down and left a gentle kiss on her forehead.
"Good night."
Ever since Sir. Perkins had found her; Beryl had clearly sensed that something was wrong with Marcellus.
He used to like to pester her so much, but in the past week, he hardly showed up. He was either socializing or
having meetings. They met twice in seven days, and the number of times they met could be said to be
unprecedented.
In the beginning, she was just puzzled. As time went by, she felt a little uneasy and aggrieved. In the end, this kind
of emotion turned into an aggrieved anger.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAs the weekend approached, Beryl saw that he did not respond at all. Finally, she could not hold it in any longer and
picked up the phone to make a call.
"I'm done with class. It's Friday. I'm going to take a break tomorrow, so I don't have to go back to school."
Ordinarily, Marcellus would be very excited when he heard this. Men, of course, wanted to spend the night with
their girlfriends.
But today, he was different. After a pause, he refused. "I have a meeting tonight. Wait for me at school first."
Beryl had already expected this answer and immediately asked, "Are you going to work overtime at the company
tonight?"
The man's voice was indifferent. "Yes."
He worked overtime every day. He was so busy that he didn't even have time to see her. If Sir. Perkins hadn't done
that thing before; she would have been very understanding. But she was very clear that everything had changed
after that incident. He was definitely not just busy.
Was he hiding from her?
Thinking of this, the suppressed anger in her heart immediately ignited, but she did not show it. Instead, she
responded as if nothing had happened, "Okay, I'll wait for you."
