Please behave My Lord novel Chapter 19

Chapter 19: Andrea's Trap

Andrea, who was walking next to her, had a shadow on her face because she knew better than anyone that all those compliments were for Mariana instead of for her.

Even if someone were willing to mention it occasionally, they would only say that the dress she wore was beautifully designed and wonder which designer it came from.

-Mr. Durán.

Pedro, who had spoken to Leopoldo earlier about the contract, approached through the crowd and was about to open his mouth when he noticed Leopoldo gazing intently at the stage.

-Mr. Durán...

-Mr. Pedro, I don't want to talk about the contract right now," came a few cold words from his thin lips.

Mr. Pedro was a little surprised, but also discreetly closed his mouth.

Leopold narrowed his eyes and his deep gaze was fixed on the woman's perfect back until she slowly moved away.

His wife seemed different from anything he had known before. It seemed that it was necessary for him to examine her again.

By now, Mariana was about to walk to the end of the stage, while Andrea had fallen behind her at some point.

And just in the nick of time, the latter suddenly quickened her pace and walked straight past Mariana, the long hems of their dresses intertwined behind them.

Mariana looked back in shock without noticing the difference under her feet completely.

The next second, an accident suddenly occurred!

She stepped on the hem of Andrea's skirt, causing Andrea to fall to the floor with an exclamation.

In the panic, Mariana only felt a force come upon her and the image in front of her inverted and then fell weightlessly to the ground. With a "Boom", she felt a dense pain in her forehead.

It all happened so suddenly that by the time everyone reacted, Andrea was already sitting on the floor with a pained face covering her ankle.

Mariana, on the other hand, had collapsed on the floor.

-What's going on?

The staff and models who were making preparations at the exit were startled into immediate chaos.

Amidst the shouting, no one paid attention to the parade on stage anymore and everyone got up and headed for the stairs.
