"It's all my fault. It's all my fault." Leaning against the wall, he bent down dispiritedly. He was so useless. A few hours had passed, but he still hadn't come to her side.
Huston raised her hand and punched him hard on the shoulder. "Marcellus, pull yourself together. It's not the time for you to be sad. Even if you're discouraged, you have to wait for Beryl to come back."
"I don't have the ability to protect her. Even if something happens, I can only watch helplessly. I said that I would keep her safe by my side, but I couldn't do it. I'm trash. Ah!" Marcellus' eyes were completely red. In the end, he even raised his hand and gave himself two tight slaps.
When Huston heard the voice and saw Marcellus's swollen cheeks, he took a deep breath and gently closed his eyes.
As brothers, seeing him like this, his heart ached, but he also felt the same.
In the past, when something had happened to Evelyn, wasn't he the same? It was just that he couldn't bear to let Marcellus suffer like this.
A person who cared so much about his face had actually slapped himself twice in front of everyone. He was truly miserable. He loved her to the core. Now that something had happened to Beryl, Marcellus didn't care about anything else.
If Beryl did not return this time, Huston had no doubt that Marcellus would be nothing more than a walking corpse.
At this moment, comfort was useless for this man. Only the news of Beryl could ease his pain for a moment.
Fortunately, 20 minutes later, the police finally brought good news. Through the surveillance video of 40 kilometers, they confirmed the area where the kidnappers were.
It was located next to the national highway in the suburbs. There were two old factories there, which used to be the property power plant of a large company.
Marcellus suddenly got up and walked over. Looking at the map on the screen, he calmed down and asked, "Are you sure?"
"It's very likely that they'll be in the power plant. After all, there are too many tricks in the chemical plant. I don't think they'll choose it easily, and the power plant will be larger."
