In the past, if Wallis had said that, Beryl would have refuted her a hundred times in her heart. But today, after reading the harsh news, she couldn't say anything.
"You're not suitable for each other. I know you're not convinced. You think that as long as you work hard, you can become excellent and be worthy of him sooner or later, don't you?" Every word of Wallis seemed to be in her heart. "No, your excellence is not what they need. For your own sake, don't go on."
When Beryl heard these words, she would rather it was Wallis’s call to scold her.
These words were like a strong sulfuric acid that was slowly breaking down and corroding her power. That self-righteous persistence, the choices that she felt were full of courage, in the eyes of others, might be ignorant and reckless.
She was only twenty years old. It was true that she didn't have a strong heart to bear all of this. All of her strength came from Marcellus's perseverance and love for her.
Now that she saw that he was so close to another woman, she didn't know how to hold on.
Beryl was very scared. She was afraid that she would lose this relationship. She was afraid that he would really change his mind. She was afraid that everything Wallis said would come true one day.
Therefore, she did not refute it. As if she was avoiding something, she simply said a few words and quickly hung up the phone.
Wallis's voice disappeared from her ear, but her heart did not calm down because of this. Instead, she became even more frightened and helpless.
She promised Wallis so confidently that she would not hesitate to contradict her. But now, looking at the hot news on the Internet and the ambiguous photo, she was really a little scared.
She was afraid that all her firm beliefs would eventually turn into a slap in her face. She was afraid that everything was just her wishful thinking.
Beryl could only try her best to comfort herself. Before hearing the man's explanation with her own ears, she could not panic.
