Chapter 1254 Stand Up for Her
What kind of mood was that?
It was like a flower that he wanted to pick. Every time he wanted to pick it, he would hesitate and feel sorry for it.
But at the critical moment, it was picked by other people under his nose.
How could Marcellus not be angry?
Not only was he angry, but he was also angry. He wished he could skin them alive and pull out their tendons.
His expression was so ugly that anyone in the private room could tell, especially when he walked towards Beryl and
pulled her into his arms.
The two men's faces turned pale with regret.
"Who did it?" Her tone was cold, and her tone was questioning.

what they had done. "No one said, right? Well, then, I'll take both of you away and interrogate you one by one. It's
not over yet."
After hearing this, the others, who had been determined to help their friends keep it a secret, began to waver. After
all, this was not someone else. This was Marcellus. What he said was definitely not a threat. If he could say so, he
could do it.
If they were really taken away, something terrible might happen.
So, after the first one couldn't help but say their names, the rest of the people said their names one after another.
The truth was revealed. Marcellus looked at one of them, stretched out his long arms, and wrapped them around
Beryl. After protecting her, he asked, "It's you?"
It was just two simple words, but it made the man's heart skip a beat. He immediately felt weak and couldn't stand
still. "Mr. Perkins, I didn't know she was your woman. If I had known, I wouldn't have dared to do that."
Marcellus just raised the corner of his mouth and smiled disdainfully. He didn't hear such remarks at all. Instead, he
turned to ask the manager next to him, " Who's in charge of the room?"
"It's Gemma and Mr. Penn."
"Call the two of them over."
"Yes." The manager agreed respectfully and immediately ordered the people behind him to bring Gemma and Mr.
Penn over.
Not long after, the two of them appeared in the private room. They seemed to have realized that something had
happened, and their faces were pale and ugly. Gemma looked at Marcellus holding Beryl in his arms and knew she
was already screwed up.
"You're here, Mr. Perkins," Gemma said weakly. She wanted to force a smile, but she was so nervous that her smile

Marcellus was not in the mood to listen to her nonsense. He asked directly, "Did the two of you change shifts for
her?"
Seeing this, Mr. Penn, who had been standing next to Gemma, immediately said, "Gemma said that she had
something to do tonight and insisted on asking Beryl to replace her. At that time, I persuaded her not to listen and
consulted Miss. Juliet for her opinion. That's why she made such an arrangement..."
In one sentence, she put all the blame on Gemma for fear that she would be implicated.
Gemma widened her eyes and looked over. "You! Didn't I tell you to find someone to replace her? Who knew you
were looking for her!"
It was just a lie. Neither of them was easy to deal with. Now that something had happened, they began to fight each
other.
"You've always disliked Miss. Juliet. You've set her up both openly and secretly. Why don't you ask everyone here!"
"When did I dislike her? It was you who stirred up trouble and failed to frame me..."
"All right!" The manager felt a headache when he heard that. He interrupted them and said, "Stop it! It's not your
turn to argue at this time?"
