Chapter 162: Nothing's wrong, just cry

At this moment, Carmen and Lionel, who had been waiting outside, naturally heard the screams

coming from inside and, with a nervous glance at each other, hurried to open the door and enter.

The room was in chaos.

The woman crouched on the ground, crying with her head in her hands and whispering something.

And the man looked at the crouching woman. There was a not very serious cut on the back of the left

hand, above which the blood was slowly clotting, while the hanging right hand was still bleeding and

had converged in a small pool of blood around her leg.

Seeing this, the two rushed forward.

Bringing a napkin from the side, Lionel pressed it firmly against Leopold's injured palm and asked with

a frown:

-Mr. Durán, why don't you go out and bandage it?

But instead of moving, the man just fixed his eyes on the woman.

Carmen arrived at Mariana's side with a sad face, extending her hand trembling with fear and

hesitating to touch her. She had a mixture of nervousness and worry in her mind, obviously also

frightened by the spectacle before her.

-Ma'am, what's... what's wrong with you? Are you okay?

So saying, he gently placed his hand on Mariana. The panic in her heart dissipated as she felt a tremor

that was even more violent than her own at the moment.

He removed her hands from his head and looked at her in distress, then gently lifted her off the floor

and helped her sit on the couch.

Mariana opened her eyes wide. Those transparent tears representing sadness and pain fell silently.

-Ma'am, it's okay, it's okay.... It's all right now.

Carmen had always been aware of her condition: previously with a moderate depression and now with

a miscarriage; she had already found herself on the verge of collapse, almost lacking the will to live.

But now Leopoldo told her that the abortion was no accident, which renewed her hope. But it was clear

that hope had faded, a fading that her heart could not bear, so she was broken.

Holding her gently in her arms, Carmen's consolation tenderly reached Mariana's ears with motherly

kindness and affection:

-It's okay, just cry, there's no need to hold back.

Reaching out his hand, he patted her shoulders regularly, one after the other. Little by little, Mariana,

who had been in a trance, suddenly hugged Carmen tightly, put her head in her arms and burst into

tears.

He was crying desperately like a baby.

His cry was as mournful and heartbreaking as if he had suffered many injustices and was trying to tell

everything in spite of everything.

Lionel looked at her like that and felt pity in his heart. She was so miserable.

Leopoldo was trembling as if he couldn't keep his balance, his eyes showed a bit of confusion and a

shock he couldn't hide.

Such a Mariana was unlike anything he had ever seen before, as vulnerable as if she were a little girl

with no one to turn to.

The emotions that had been building up in her mind had no way to vent, and could only end up hurting

herself.

Leopold felt as if his feet were tied and nailed solidly to the ground, which allowed him to be

immobilized, and he began to stiffen.

The pain produced in his hands seemed to vanish the moment the whimpering began. He could not

perceive anything.

-Mr. Durán, leave the lady alone for a while, her hand also needs to be bandaged quickly.

Blood was still pouring from the wound in his hand. The man's face was pale, but he remained

motionless. But when he saw the way Mariana was sobbing, it was as if something had clogged her

throat. In the end, she had no choice but to take steps to get out.

The door closed again and Mariana and Carmen were left alone in the room, with the sound of the

pitiful cries still echoing in the air.

Leopoldo stood in the doorway for a while before leaving.

The wound was soon treated. The man looked at the white gauze on his hand, his eyes misty with

emotion.

-Investigate how he found out about this.

He had erased all traces pertaining to Diana before asking Lionel to deliver the prepared information

back to Mariana, so she should never have known.

Something flashed through her mind and her eyes widened wildly: the call Mariana had received!

-And the call she received in the living room.

Lionel lowered his eyes and replied quietly:

-Yes.

With those instructions, Leopoldo got up and turned toward the living room.

Watching his back, Lionel couldn't help but shake his head with a sigh, then went to undertake what he

had ordered.

Leopoldo stood at the door with some hesitation. He was about to push the door, but then it opened

from inside and Carmen came out.

She looked up in surprise at Leopold who had reappeared in front and was stunned for a moment. She

folded her hands tightly and finally whispered:

-Mr. Durán, there is something I want to tell you about the Señora.

With that, Carmen closed the door behind her, not letting him in.

Leopold frowned with his skeptical gaze at her before eventually nodding.

The two made their way to a bench in the hallway and sat down.

-It's the first time I've seen Madame so sad. She is usually calm and kind, and although she always

seems cold in front of people, she is always nice to everyone.

Leopoldo gazed ahead with a deep look and his heart trembled gently.

He never thought it would be his own nanny who would tell him about this one day.

Instead of Mariana's parents.

-It was ascertained that the Señora was moderately depressed some time ago, just after Miss Andrea

Solis arrived at the house. Perhaps her words irritated her and made her faint, and it was also the

moment when it was ascertained that she was pregnant.

Leopoldo was in a lot of shock inside, but his face remained expressionless, without any visible

emotion.

-After that moment, I thought she would tell him the good news, but he stopped me from saying it, I just

thought she wanted to tell him herself, but to my surprise she didn't say anything.

Carmen's voice was a little hoarse. After spending so much time with Mariana, she seemed to have

been taken into her world, a place so wide that one could not see the way forward.

-And later, Miss Diana Solis also came to the house for her. From her conversation, it was Miss Andrea

who told her that she was pregnant, and she went to the hospital where the Señora did tests at that

time, so she knew.

It turned out that Diana knew about Mariana's pregnancy. This is property © of NôvelDrama.Org.
