Please behave My Lord novel Chapter 222

Chapter 222: Wanting to take credit for itself

Mariana looked at Leopoldo and pursed her lips, not knowing what to say.

Hearing this, Leopoldo, to the side, turned his head and saw Gisela and Mariana, both had smiles on their faces, but Mariana's smile hid other emotions.

He looked at Mariana's eyes and averted his gaze in the next second. Leopoldo looked at Gisela and said, "No need to thank me, it's my promise to Dina.

Saying this, he lowered his head and looked at Dina, who was sitting next to him.

Hearing this, Dina immediately stood up and walked towards Gisela, taking a step forward to hug her thigh and say with a smile: -Gisela, when Leopoldo asked me what I wanted, I told him that I wanted the orphanage to always be there, then he promised me.

She said this was as if she wanted to take credit to herself.

Gisela reached out her hand and stroked Dina's head. Then she raised her head, looked at Leopoldo and said sincerely: "I still want to thank you, if it wasn't for you, the orphanage might not exist today. There is no wine here, so I toast you with tea instead of wine.

With that, Gisela lifted the glass in her hand.

The man also raised his glass and clinked it with Gisela's glass.

Then, amidst the laughter of the children, dinner was over.

Gisela prepared a room for Mariana and Leopoldo, where they would be staying tonight.

After Dina fell asleep with the nurse's help, Leopoldo quietly left the room, not realizing that Mariana was at the door at that moment.

Their gazes met and immediately parted again.

-Do you want to take a walk with me?

Mariana's invitation floated on the wind, and upon hearing it Leopoldo felt a strange emotion in his heart. But in the end, he agreed to it.

The two walked through the orphanage slowly.

At that moment there were stars as bright as diamonds illuminating the dark night sky. They emitted a dazzling light that made people unable to take their eyes away.

At that moment, Mariana felt as if she had gone back to the last time they looked at the starry sky together at Zoraida's house.

That time it was like that too, the wind was blowing, there were many stars in the sky and the atmosphere was pleasant.

-I never thought we could see the stars together again.

There was a very evident sense of frustration and a slight hint of sadness in his words.

Taking his eyes off the sky, Leopold looked at the woman next to him, with a complex emotion in his eyes.

The street lamp next to him shone with a dim light, yet in this dim light, Leopold saw the woman's curved eyelashes, her eyes were like the stars in the sky, no one could take their eyes off them.

Suddenly, Leopoldo felt his heart beating faster.

As if sensing his gaze, Mariana turned her head and was stunned.

He thought he saw a hint of tenderness in Leopold's eyes.
