Please behave My Lord novel Chapter 40

Chapter 40: Pressure

Ana then looked at her with feigned seriousness until she closed her eyes, before turning to the place where Mariana was a moment ago and continuing with what she had just done.

Her closed eyes opened again. Mariana watched her friend's busy back and a thrill rose in her heart.

Last night she didn't sleep, Xavier sat with her for a long time, and at dawn, the two arrived on set together.

It was good to have someone she could count on.

After a short break, Mariana got up and had the suits checked, folded them neatly and took them to the break room where Andrea was.

However, when she opened the door and raised her head, she saw the man standing next to Andrea, Leopoldo.

In an instant, the man's cold gaze rested on her, giving her an uncomfortable pressure.

Mariana kept her composure, holding the wardrobe in her hand and placing it on the table, she sketched a soft and gentle smile, looking directly at Andrea and saying:

-The dress is already well repaired, it has been altered, Miss Solis, you can take a look.

He paid no attention to the man's somber eyes.

Andrea looked at Leopoldo beside her, whose eyes were on Mariana, focused and serious, charged with complex emotions that she could not understand.

Instantly resentment washed over him. She curved the corners of her mouth in a disdainful smile, lightly picked up the suit on the table, glancing at it casually, then couldn't help but frown.

-Isn't this modification too hard? Is that what I told you last time?

Critical words were directed mercilessly from Andrea's tender lips.

A trace of dissimulation shone in Andrea's eyes, which soon disappeared.

-Or is it that Miss Ortiz thinks that with Xavier's backing, you don't even bother to do your job properly?

This sarcasm was really spicy.

The next moment, the man withdrew his gaze from Mariana, and began to play with the expensive cufflinks encrusted with expensive emeralds. His movements were casual, but implied his only indifference.

A trace of complacency flashed in Andrea's eyes as she cast a sidelong glance at Mariana and smiled coldly:

-Well, Miss Ortiz doesn't want to work on the set anymore, does she?

As long as Mariana was not in charge of the wardrobe work, she would no longer have the opportunity to see Leopoldo.

With this thought, Andrea looked at Mariana with a smile full of complacency.

-If Miss Ortiz does not want to continue with this work, I can help you talk to the director. I think with my help the director will agree.

Andrea's tone was very condescending, as if Mariana were a beggar.

Mariana frowned slightly, looking disdainfully at Andrea, and spoke indifferently:

-Thank you, but it's not necessary. Miss Solis, I'll leave this dress here.

After a pause, he drew a smile and continued casually:

-If Miss Solis is not satisfied with the dress you can go and talk to the director. If the director asks me to continue revising the dress according to your wishes, of course I won't refuse!

After saying that, Mariana completely ignored Andrea's angry face and turned to leave.

-A crazy woman!

Andrea pointed at Mariana's back cursing, but received no response.

The next second, she turned around and pouted at the man in a sweet tone:

-Leo, look! He's bullying me like this! Help me, please...

Mariana slammed the door behind her.

At that moment, the world seemed to be much calmer without the obnoxious voice of that Andrea.
