Please behave My Lord novel Chapter 154

Chapter 154: Baby Clothing

At this moment, the nanny approached, smiled and glanced at Mariana, handing her a glass of hot water.
She straightened up and busied herself drinking it, taking two large sips, which relieved her a little.
-I've walked too much and sweated today, I'll go upstairs and take a shower before I go downstairs.
After these words, Mariana went upstairs.
After showering and putting on comfortable house clothes, Mariana dried her wet hair as she went downstairs, but she didn't expect to see Leopoldo sitting on the sofa, who at this moment had a little pink dress in his hands.
The man's eyes were still cold and stern, with a deep, dark color.
Her eyes widened as Mariana hurried downstairs, grabbed the dress from the man's hand and stuffed it into the bag.
"I had just gone upstairs to take a shower, but I forgot to take the baby clothes I bought there, but I never thought Leopoldo would come back today and find it."
Her heart was pounding, which made Mariana's body tremble slightly.
-What is this?
He said coldly.
With her hands clutching the bag in her hands, Mariana pursed her lips, not knowing what to do for a moment.
"Ana may not know if I have cousins, but Leopoldo knows me a lot."
With a cold, penetrating gaze, the man looked at Mariana with a sense of scrutiny, but in the back of his eyes he seemed a little soft.
However, Mariana, who was unexpectedly nervous, was thinking of a plan to deal with the situation, so naturally she did not notice this slight difference.
After a moment's hesitation, Mariana suddenly thought of the nanny, who was busy in the kitchen at the time, and hurried to speak.
-These two little clothes are for the nanny's grandchildren. Her family has a new set of babies, and the nanny has been taking care of me, so I always need to send some gifts.
I was very nervous, not knowing if I could fool him.
His gaze instantly turned cold and the air pressure around him was a few degrees lower than it had been at the time.
Leopoldo got up and ignored Mariana, turning around and going up the stairs.
Only when the sound of footsteps faded away did Mariana let out a sigh of relief and raised her head, looking up, a bit puzzled, not understanding why Leopoldo was angry.
Lowering her eyes, Mariana looked at the small, delicate baby clothes in her hands, placed it gently on her chest and hugged it, as if she could feel the baby's breathing, her heart was full of reluctance.
At dinner time, Mariana and Leopoldo sat facing each other, and there was silence all the time, neither of them spoke.
Mariana's heart shuddered at the memory of what had just happened, and she feared that Leopoldo would ask for the clothes, so she tried to slow down her movements to reduce his presence.
But in the end, Leopoldo said no more.
Only after the man got up and went upstairs did Mariana slowly put the chopsticks down in her hands, looking a bit thoughtful, reaching out and gently covering her stomach with some hesitation and some apology.
She did not dare to tell Leopoldo about her pregnancy, because if she did, there would be only one result, and that was the loss of the child in her womb.
But this child was not only his, but Leopoldo's as well.
His gaze was heavy, and Mariana suddenly remembered what the nanny had told her the last time.
"Yes, the child is innocent, and even if I am careful, I will not be able to guarantee the safety of the child I carry in my womb until I have escaped from Leopoldo's side. The only thing I can do is to tell Leopoldo of my pregnancy."
Mariana reflected to herself, "When will be the best time to confess?"
But what she didn't know was that a shocking change was coming from the shadows, leaving people struggling, but unable to break free, only to sink or even be annihilated in it!
The next day was the day set for the set celebration party.
Mariana wore a conservative dress that she and Ana had bought on a shopping trip, which wrapped around her body without revealing anything, but still looked elegant, she also wore simple makeup, nothing dazzling.
After everything was arranged, he drove to the party venue.
Although Mariana's dress was simple and unexciting, it was still wrapped in a bright white light, like a fairy descending from the sky at night.
In such a crowded party where all the people were dressed in colorful clothes, she was like a special person, bringing a touch of sweet and clear light.
In an instant, the scene was silent for a second, and then a louder cacophony of chatter broke out.
-Last I heard, the reason Mariana could come to the celebration party was because Diana personally went to see the director and told him that she had put in a lot of effort and made a great contribution to the set, so she should get an invitation, but I didn't expect her to come shamelessly!
-Yes, yes, he has already resigned, I didn't think he still had the nerve to come here, and he doesn't even think about the problems he has caused our set during his tenure!
-Some people, you cheeky, it's something you don't expect!
This chaotic gossip did not reach the ears of Mariana, who had just arrived on the scene when she was spotted by Ana, who could not help but push her way through the crowd and rushed over to drag her away, her face full of excitement.
-Mari, it is said that the production company has spent a lot of money on this celebration party, I just looked at the party food, there are many kinds of food, you should eat much later.
Shaking her head helplessly, Mariana spoke softly:
-You!
The two had just gone to the corner to eat when the door behind them opened again, as if light came out from behind, falling on the two walking forward, casting a dappled gray light and shadow, shining also on the different expressions on everyone's face, whether of astonishment, jealousy or envy, all of them.
The screams around them naturally caught Mariana's attention, so she turned her eyes to look and saw Leopoldo and Diana walking from the doorway.
Her eyes sparkled with surprise, Mariana did not expect Leopoldo to arrive on such an occasion.
The woman wore a floor-length white dress with a long skirt and a one-piece design that revealed Diana's exquisite body.
The large sparkling diamonds she wore around her neck, wrists and earlobes dazzled under the party lights, adding to Diana's opulence.
