Please behave My Lord novel Chapter 140

Chapter 140: Very Fragile

It was only when the figure of the man disappeared that Diana withdrew her gaze, a tinge of contempt crossing her eyes, then turned her head and looked at Leopold, becoming demure and virtuous.

-Leo, where are we going for dinner after the shoot today? My agent recently recommended a good western restaurant, or shall we go there?

However, when Diana finished speaking, the other party did not respond.

The man sitting on the couch remained silent there, his lowered eyes hiding the emotions in them and making it impossible for people to guess what he was thinking.

Rising, Diana approached him and gently nudged him.

-Leo?

Leopold raised his head and his gaze fell on her, putting aside the magazine in his hand that he had not read.

-What's wrong?

Diana frowned with hatred as she looked at Leopold in front of her, a little displeased at heart, but as gentle and affectionate as ever on the surface.

-Why are you so distracted? I asked you if you wanted to go to that restaurant my agent recommended tonight.

The hand hanging at his side clenched involuntarily, the pain of the sharp nails sinking into his palm allowing him to barely contain the anger and fear rising in his mind.

Leopold had been acting like this for a long time; in the few days he stayed with her, he had always been in a trance from time to time, very distracted.

The man narrowed his eyes in order to hide the emotions that were short-lived, giving the impression of being unpredictable.

-There's too much work piling up at the company these days, as you're feeling better now, I'd better get back.

After saying this, he stood up and straightened the wrinkles in his suit jacket, with a very leisurely and natural attitude.

At this, Diana became slightly nervous and could barely keep her smile on her face. Looking at Leopoldo, she stepped forward and took him by the arm, whispering:

-Okay, take care of yourself on the road and call me when you get to the company.

However, there was an obvious look of loss on his face. Leopoldo frowned, spoke of nothing, nodded and left.

Diana clenched her fists and gritted her teeth in resentment as she watched the departing figure without looking back.

In the office of the president of Grupo Durán.

Standing in front of the window, Leopold gazed at the night scene outside, and the darkness in his eyes seemed to be dispelled a little by the reflections in his pupils from the bright neon light.

The assistant stepped forward and looked at his boss's back, feeling a little strange. Leopold at this moment seemed to have a different emotion than his usual seriousness and indifference, but he remained impenetrable.

-Mr. Durán, I have investigated the matter of Miss Diana's food poisoning at your request. The woman who had given the sandwiches and coffee to the lady to ask her to send them resigned and left for no apparent reason, now her whereabouts are unknown.

There was a pause and the assistant raised his eyebrows.

-Continued.

Leopoldo indicated calmly.

-Yes, other than that, there is nothing unusual. But from the evidence gathered so far, it really doesn't look like Madam was deliberately trying to harm Miss Diana, not many people know about her peanut allergy.

After all, in a chaotic place like show business, if anyone found out about her fatal weakness, they could plunder Diana's resources with a little trickery.

The man always standing in front of the window did not move, but his aura became more and more icy, with a deep majesty that made the air in the office freeze a little.

-Mr. Durán, you don't think the Señora would do something like that either, do you? That's why you asked me to look into it, so if so, why have you ignored her all this time and stayed with Miss Diana at all times?

Finally, the assistant asked the question that had been on his mind.
