Chapter 1392 Give Me a Chance to Be Responsible for You

He had never said these words to any other woman before. She was the first.

But Beryl was somewhat dazed, "You... you were holding another woman tonight..."

"I only did that on purpose because I saw you with Zane. After I got together with you, I haven't touched another

woman."

Beryl bit her lip, not knowing how to respond. So, was acting enough? She really cared...

Marcellus slowly stroked her back, able to sense her conflicting emotions. After spending so much time in social

events, he no longer differentiated between good and bad amid the vibrant distractions.

Only children see things in black and white; adults simply take what they need. After a while, hearts become numb.

But now, feeling the emotions of the girl in his arms, that pure, clean, girlish state of mind, Marcellus for the first

time thought his past relationships were so disgraceful and vulgar, and he even felt a bit disgusted with himself.

She always emphasized they were from different worlds. Now Marcellus finally agreed to some extent. Indeed, he

was a man who had seen too much darkness, whereas she was so bright and sunny.

The man frowned slightly and closed his eyes. His stroking hand paused, "I can't erase my past. What happened has

happened. But I can promise you. As long as you're willing to accept me, there won't be anyone else."

If it were when Beryl had first met Marcellus, hearing him say these words wouldn't have affected her at all. But

now, after getting to know this man, she understood what these words meant to him.

"I've never promised anyone a future, but now, I want to try," Marcellus gradually opened up his sincerity to her,

"Will... will you accept it?"

Tears quickly soaked his shirt on his chest. The warm liquid seeped through the fabric and onto his skin.

Marcellus was about to lean back a little to see her current state, but the girl in his arms would not let him. She

clung to his shirt.

"Beryl?"

Beryl looked down at the buttons on his shirt and only spoke after a moment, "I have never dated anyone, never

liked anyone. My life is very busy and difficult. I don't have time for romance, and I never thought I would end up

with someone like you. But... I suddenly realized I can't refuse you any longer. I don't know how to handle this

relationship. I just want to spend more time with you, to have a longer time together..."

The girl was expressing her feelings in a roundabout way. She didn't mention 'like', but every word she uttered was

filled with affection.

Listening to her, Marcellus's heart nearly melted. He grinned, soothing the frightened little rabbit in his arms, "Be

with me, Beryl. You like me, and I like you. Give me a chance to take responsibility for you, okay?"

Beryl was completely electrified by the word "like".

She already had an answer in her heart, but she was still reluctant to admit it, "About tonight's incident..."

"How about this, you hit me," saying this, Marcellus took her hand and moved it toward his face, "Hit me hard, let

you get it out of your system."

Beryl was startled and quickly pulled back, "What... what are you doing..."

"I'm letting you vent. I've been such a jerk, such a beast. You came to me and I ignored you, that's not shameless. I

feel extremely guilty!" He critiqued himself without mercy, his eyes serious with genuine remorse. "Hit me."
