Chapter 152: Mariana, don't force me

"But in my heart I felt sad, it's the first time I challenge Leopoldo like this, right? Now my husband is

doubting me for a mistress, it's really funny."

And Mariana laughed out loud, sarcastically.

His eyes were cold, and when he saw the woman's smile, he became angry. He raised his hand and

struck hard at the left side of Mariana's face.

After being slapped hard, Mariana suddenly fell to the ground and covered her stomach in some shock,

with concern in her eyes.

There was no need to worry about the bruises on his face.

-You should know that! We are only married by contract, and it doesn't look like it's your turn to take

care of this, Miss Ortiz, one still needs to know one's own identity.

"Yes, what identity do I have? In your eyes, I am nothing more than a shameless woman who has tied

herself to the president of the Durán Group for money. But the punishment I received should not apply

to the child I carry in my womb, right? It is innocent."

Her eyes had tears in them, and the guilt and helplessness in her heart weighed on her, leaving her

powerless to resist.

In addition, there was the uncertainty of the future.

It was time to put an end to this abnormal relationship.

Repressing the various emotions in her heart, Mariana spoke in a cold voice:

-Mr. Durán, in this case, let's break the marriage contract, I can no longer afford to maintain this

relationship, let's divorce and terminate the agreement.

When she finished speaking, Mariana only felt that her whole body was weak, these words seemed to

have drained all the strength from her body.

Her heart was cold, like the cold tiles under her hands, she could not feel the sunlight outside at noon,

the temperature seemed to insulate her from it.

Leopoldo looked at Mariana from above, his eyes full of anger,

-Never!

The cold, harsh words once again deepened the sadness in Mariana's heart.

She slowly got up from the floor and stood in front of Leopoldo, she was no longer as submissive as

before, she was stubborn and even her words seemed aggressive:

-Mr. Durán, what is all this? Since you want to give Diana a name, we can finish the agreement and

make the two of you together, isn't that good?

The man took a step forward and approached Mariana, reaching out to grab her slender neck and

squeezing it lightly, then he saw Mariana's reddened face.

-Mariana Ortiz, don't force me, if you want to terminate the agreement, you can do it, unless you can

pay for the breach of contract, you must know that those monies are like astronomical figures for you

now!

The words were cold, with a sense of deep menace.

The woman's heart shuddered, despair flooded her heart and her eyes watered.

The pressure on her neck suddenly loosened and Mariana coughed loudly twice, slightly cold air

rushed into her mouth and then ran down her airway into her lungs, Mariana panicked.

"I don't even have the right to leave - I'm pathetic and pitiful!"

Her body was a little flabby, and Mariana sat on the couch, bending her knees, burying her head in her This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.

knees and curling her hands tightly around her legs.

This posture was strange, but it made her feel like she could breathe easier, but her tears fell silently,

unable to stop.

Leopoldo stood in front of the window, blocking the woman, casting gray shadows on her body,

enveloping her like a dense net from which it was impossible to escape.

With a shudder in his heart, the coldness in Leopold's eyes silently dispersed and was instantly

replaced by a slightly strange look, with furrowed brows.

"She is thin, frail and unsupported."

This was the most intuitive feeling Mariana gave Leopoldo at the moment.

He turned around and sat back in the chair behind the desk, then leaned back, such a movement

shook the bruises on his back, he felt the slight pain.

The hand resting on the black desk closed unconsciously.

As the woman finished applying the medicine, he saw the care and pain in the woman's eyes, and his

heart inevitably fluttered.

Once again, an oppressive silence fell in the studio.

The next morning, when Grandma came in with the key, she saw Mariana curled up on the sofa and

Leopoldo sitting behind the desk with his head resting on his elbows.

He moved closer, looking at the two, really feeling the disappointment.

Naturally the noise woke Mariana and Leopoldo, who looked up to see the studio door open.

Clara, who was standing behind Grandma, couldn't help blinking her eyes.

The grandmother came to Mariana's side and frowned:

-Mari, why do you sleep like that on the sofa, what if you catch a cold?

She was a little dizzy, and when she looked at her grandmother, Mariana only felt her cheeks burning

and could not see well.

Seeing Mariana like this, her grandmother got worried and thought of something, so she went ahead

and put her hand on her forehead, but the hot temperature made her hand shrink instantly.

Turning to Clara, who was behind her, she said:

-Go and call a doctor.

With a start, Mariana's mind cleared a little and she waved her hand:

-No, no, I'll be fine with some medicine.

-Your forehead is very hot, it must be a serious fever, how can you take medicine?

After a pause, he turned his head to look at Leopoldo to the side and scolded him:

-How have you been taking care of Mari? I can't believe you made her have a fever.

I didn't expect the night to end this way.

Mariana spoke softly as she reached forward to take her grandmother's hand, her face tinged with a

slight tinge of urgency.

-Grandma, I'll just take some medicine and sleep, there's really no need to call the doctor, if I wake up

and the fever hasn't gone down, then look for a doctor again, okay?

"I can't let the pregnancy be exposed like this."

Looking at Mariana, who had a determined face, although the grandmother still had worries in her

heart, she nodded helplessly and agreed.

Helping her grandmother out, Mariana did not look at that place, as if she was the only person in the

room from the beginning to the end.

Leopold remained under the light and shadow, with a cold and stern look, his eyes moving with the

woman's figure, but not moving an inch.

When Mariana woke up again, it was already afternoon, her fever had gone down and her body had no

more discomfort than a little pain, so she finally felt relieved.

By this time, the sun was setting in the west and the orange glow was coming through the window and

spreading across the room, giving everything inside a layer of warm color, and Mariana's mood

improved.

"We still have to look ahead."
