Please behave My Lord novel Chapter 206

Chapter 206: Taboo

Diana, on the opposite side, looked at Mariana, who was hanging her head and drinking the soup, her eyes trembled slightly, with some indescribable meaning.
The corner of his mouth hooked a slight smile, he stood up, picked up a small bowl on the side, also gave Leopoldo a bowl, gently placed in front of him, very virtuous and gentle. Temporarily won Mariana for a while, she was drinking soup with her head down, as if Diana was Leopoldo's wife in general.
With a flash of his eyes, Juan looked at the action there without moving a muscle, some thoughts passed through his eyes, then a smile appeared on his face as he spoke kindly,
-Mariana, Diana, this table is specially prepared for the two of you, you should eat more.
Looking at Juan, Mariana's stiff, cold cheeks barely showed a smile as she was about to open her mouth, but Diana, who was on the other side of the table, beat her to it.
-Sir, thank you for your hospitality.
The words were soft, with an ingratiating sense, and reached the ears of the crowd lightly.
When Juan smiled, he couldn't help but point at her and say to Perla,
-Diana is still the same as before.
The three quickly chatted together.
Meanwhile, Leopold did not speak, his expression was cold and indifferent, putting himself completely out of the question.
-Sir, Mariana has also been working very hard this time, not only has she become the design director of a company called the Elamorad company under Leo in just a few days, she is now also in charge of the company's new product launches.
At this moment, Perla, who was opposite, looked at Diana and spoke in a low voice,
-I've heard about this thing Diana mentioned, there was a lot of hype on the Internet recently, even people like me who basically don't go online saw it.
After saying that, Perla's eyes moved back and forth between Mariana and Leopoldo, full of deep meaning.
The last time he asked for Mariana's help, it ended up like this, he had not released his emotions until now, this time he took the opportunity, he would definitely want revenge from that time.
With a sinking heart, Mariana had already understood what the two were talking about.
Indeed, Perla turned her head and looked at Juan, who was standing next to her, smiling and talking,
-Juan, you don't know, do you? It is said that the company under Leo's name, the Elamorad company, has a great background. He founded it himself before taking over the Durán Group, and even the name he gave it is very ingenious, the Elamorad company ... the Elamorad company ... doesn't it mean Love for Diana?
After the last words were spoken, the scene was suddenly silent, like the antechamber of approaching death, everywhere with an eerie eeriness.
The maids waiting to one side instantly lowered their heads, not daring to raise them at all, for fear of accidentally provoking those present.
With her eyebrows slightly furrowed, Mariana looked at Perla next to her, not expecting her to say something like that on an occasion like this.
In addition, she, the daughter-in-law of the Durán Family, was also present at the time.
The idea of wanting to stir up trouble was still so repugnant, he really dared to say anything.
His eyes turned cold as Leopoldo looked at Perla, his body enveloped in an icy aura, his eyes filled with anger.
-What do you mean?
Juan, who was sitting in the main seat, also looked at Perla and wrinkled his eyebrows, his face full of disapproval, now that Leopoldo was also married, what was the point of mentioning these things in front of Mariana?
Although it was true that Mariana's background was not as good as Diana's, but now that the Durán family was on the rise in the hands of Leopoldo, it would not take long for her to reach the top, so there was no need for a union between the families.
Besides, now that he had retired, it was time to hand over all the company's affairs to Leopoldo.
But then his eyes twitched, and the first half of Perla's statement came to his mind uncontrollably.
In that case, before Leopoldo took over Grupo Durán, he had run a company of his own, and he had learned about this design company, a well-known clothing design company.
Juan turned his head and looked at Leopoldo, with indescribable meaning, his words were profound and he spoke in a cold voice,
-Leo, don't you need to explain this matter to me?
At these words, Pearl's eyes flashed with pride and her slender jade hand rubbed the rim of the white porcelain cup.
The two had lived as husband and wife for many years, perhaps even Leopoldo did not know Juan as well as she did.
If there was any interest between this company and Durán's, or even if there had been any profit from Grupo Durán, or if there would be any interest in the future, all this was taboo for Juan.
After all, it was not unheard of for a shell company to be used to empty a large Group. Although John didn't care about the company now, there were still many of his shares there, it was his family's property, how could he not care?
-Juan, I didn't say this to make you mad at Leo, I just want to talk to you about things that have happened on the Internet recently.
Perla stood up and reached out her hand, smoothing Juan's breathing.
-Okay, it's okay, don't get mad, this is probably something Leo hasn't had time to tell you yet, since you asked today, he will definitely give you an answer that satisfies you.
These words were said at a very high level, not only separating himself from this matter, but also forcing Leopoldo to definitively give an explanation today.
Mariana looked worriedly at Leopoldo and could not help but clutch the spoon in her hand.
At this moment, even Diana realized that things seemed to have changed, and her heart sank. She pursed her lips, then her eyes lit up and she suddenly remembered the last words Perla said.
-Sir, you have misunderstood Leo, although it is true that the company was created before Leo took over Grupo Durán, but it is just to give me an explanation.
With slightly raised eyes, Diana looked at Mariana with a different meaning.
-At that time... you also know that the relationship between Leo and the family was not so cordial. Leo and I loved each other, although the Solis family was not so powerful because of my father's death, it was famous at that time.
Perla clearly perceived that the anger was slowly dissipating from Juan's body.
-Then Leo felt he wasn't good enough for me at the time, so he went out of his way to start his own business, and that's how he single-handedly created the Elamorad company.
