Please behave My Lord novel Chapter 125

Chapter 125: Why do you treat me this way?

Mariana knew that Leopoldo was watching her, and his gaze was so hot that it could burn her skin.

He said coldly and the words were hurtful:

-Yesterday you were falsely accused of plagiarism, and today you have free time to go out on a date?

The word "appointment" was pronounced clearly and, upon hearing it, Mariana's face turned pale.

These words were too harsh.

-Mr. Durán, my relationship with Xavier is not what you think it is.

Mariana looked at him stubbornly.

Leopold's face became somber and his cold eyes were frightening.

"Mr. Durán? Xavier?"

"When did she ever become so familiar with him?"

The atmosphere was strange. Diana was happy to see Leopoldo reprimanding Mariana.

On the contrary, Xavier frowned and in his pretty eyes no longer showed affection as before.

-You are in no position to judge our relationship. Since you're here to have lunch with Miss Solis, then we won't bother you anymore.

Xavier grabbed Mariana's hand and led her outside.

Only after turning a corner did Mariana feel the burning gaze behind her disappear.

She felt frustration and stopped smiling:

-Xavier, I'm a little tired and I want to go back.

-Do you need a ride home?

Looking at Mariana who was in such a bad mood, Xavier was worried.

-No, I will drive back myself.

When she returned to the villa, the nanny said with a smile:

-I just made some sandwiches, ma'am. Would you like to have some?

Mariana shook her head and went upstairs without another word.

Looking behind her, the nanny was puzzled. She wondered why the lady's mood had suddenly altered.

Lying on the bed, Mariana closed her eyes and covered her head with the blanket, but those disturbing images were still in her mind.

Leopoldo's soft gaze towards Diana, Diana's hand on Leopoldo's arm and her smile...

All this made his heart ache.

At the restaurant.

Diana pretended to be innocent and asked curiously:

-Leo, it turns out that Mariana and Xavier are so close.

Leopoldo withdrew his arm from Diana's hand and looked at her indifferently.

-Diana, I remembered that I still have some things to take care of. I'll go first.

After saying that, he left.

Diana froze, staring angrily at his back with clenched hands.
