Chapter 1431 He Was Played by Beryl

If the mood of Marcellus was just partly cloudy earlier, now his face was covered with dark clouds. He rubbed his

temples, feeling extremely annoyed, but he had no choice but to hold back, considering what he had said just now.

"Beryl, can you really say such things?" he questioned.

"You brought up your ex first," Beryl retorted.

Marcellus was speechless.

Fine, who asked him to blurt out those words? He had been retorted by her.

Marcellus reluctantly accepted his defeat this time, seeing her calm down a bit. She pulled the thermos lunch box

closer to him and said, "Have some. You didn't eat much just now."

Seeing her calm down, Marcellus could only suppress his anger alone. He lowered his head and ate a few mouthfuls

of food, but even after swallowing, he still felt a sense of unease in his heart.

As he was about to lecture her a little, he suddenly saw her trying to suppress a smile.

Her clear, big eyes were filled with teasing towards him.

What was going on?

Was he being played by Beryl?

Marcellus finally realized that she had intentionally made things difficult for him just now, teasing him and seeking

revenge by watching him squirm.

He had lived for over thirty years, and in the end, he was played by a young girl.

Marcellus sneered, "Are you happy now? Satisfied with yourself?"

Beryl intentionally annoyed him and nodded with exaggerated enthusiasm, "Emm, very much."

Really?

"You think you can fool me with these tricks? It's just because I like you," Marcellus hastily explained earlier, worried

that she might get angry and he didn't notice her real intention.

Beryl had initially been somewhat bothered by what he said, but now, any grievances or jealousy seemed to have

disappeared. She had never realized that Marcellus could be this adorable and quirky.

"Aren't you going to eat?" Marcellus was feeling uncomfortable under her scrutiny, so he pointed to the lunch box in

front of him.

Beryl shook her head, "I'm full, no more."

As Marcellus reached out to put the lunch box away, a soft and wet touch suddenly landed on his face.

He froze in place, turned his head to look, and saw Beryl's face turning bright pink, hiding it with shyness.

An idea sparked in Marcellus's mind, and he decided to play along. He touched his face as if feeling violated and

looked at her, "You kissed me? Did I allow you to do that?"

"You're my boyfriend, and I can kiss you whenever I want."

Beryl said boldly, and the roles they usually played in their interactions seemed to have reversed.

Marcellus, rarely seeing her bold side, tempted her, "Oh, really? Can't resist getting closer to such a handsome

boyfriend?"

Beryl, not backing down, replied, "Is that not allowed?"

"Sure," Marcellus lowered his head and smiled, a hint of pleasure evident in his voice. He reached behind Beryl's

neck, pulling her closer, and his voice turned low and hoarse, adding a touch of sensuality, "You can do whatever

you want."

With that, he leaned in and kissed her, his thin lips pressing firmly against hers. Unlike Beryl's tentative touch, he

went straight for the kill, gently prying open her lips and deepening the kiss.

The fiery atmosphere immediately intensified, and Beryl felt like she was wrapped in a warm blanket, her whole

body feeling hot, her face blushing up to her neck.
