Please behave My Lord novel Chapter 48

Chapter 48: Planned for the long term

-Mari, I will always be on your side," Anna said firmly.

Stroking Ana's hand, Mariana smiled,

-I know.

"I've always known that."

At the Office of the President of Grupo Durán.

Lionel stood in front of the door, hesitant.

It seemed that as soon as he came across the matter of Mrs. Ortiz, he just had to hesitate in front of the door whether he should go in and tell the boss or not.

"Lately, the boss hasn't been in a good mood, and since he found Mrs. Ortiz at the tavern, he's been in a good mood."

"But I have not thought that, after a single day, he would be back to his cold, unfeeling self, with eyes so cold that they gave him the shivers."

Thinking about what had happened to him this time, Lionel couldn't help but look sad.

"But with only Ms. Ortiz's own skills, there was no telling whether the matter could be successfully resolved."

Finally, after much deliberation, Lionel gritted his teeth and pushed open the office door and entered.

He looked warily at the boss behind the desk and said:

-Mr. Durán, Mrs. Durán recently...

-There is no need to inform me about your affairs from now on.

Before he could finish his words he was interrupted by Leopold coldly, in an instant it was as if the temperature in the office had dropped several degrees. Lionel couldn't help a shiver, looking sad, hesitating in his place, still he couldn't help trying to speak again:

-Mr. Durán, this time, Mrs....

The man threw on the table, with evident impatience.

Not daring to linger any longer, Lionel spoke quickly:

-Then I'll leave first.

The room returned to calm and silence.

***

The first thing that came to Mariana's mind was to go find the Facebook account that leaked the costume in person.

"If I can find him and ask him to declare on Facebook that he is not the costume designer on the set, then everything will be solved, right? But where do I find this person?"

Mariana went to the security room and looked at the surveillance, but everything was completely black, so she couldn't see anything at all, while the detail photos taken on Facebook were well lit.

So, obviously, surveillance was replaced.

"This method does not work."

After a day with no results, Mariana returned home exhausted, slumped on the couch.

"The mystery person was coming for me?"

The soft sound of slippers on the wooden floor echoed in her ears. Mariana reached up and rubbed her forehead.

"It's Leopoldo!"

In the next instant, Mariana sat upright, knees together, hands on her knees, sitting upright.

-Sir, ma'am, it's time to eat.

Hearing this, Leopoldo turned around and went to sit at the table. After a while, Mariana got up and came over, taking a seat next to him.

After serving the last dish, the nanny looked at Mariana, unable to help but frown slightly, a little worried.

-Ma'am, you don't look well today, shall I fix you something light?

Leopoldo looked at the woman next to him without moving and they lowered their heads again.
