Chapter 196: A half-hearted understanding

Mariana raised her head to look at Leopoldo, who was sitting to one side, and her eyes showed a

restlessness that was not easy to detect.

If this three-way cooperation had not been achieved because of her, she would not forgive herself.

But to her surprise, the moment she looked, the man was looking at her too, and there was an emotion

in his eyes that she had never felt before, like love and self-reproach.

However, before Mariana could confirm it, this look had already disappeared without a trace.

Mariana felt a moment of surprise, and as Leopoldo had already looked away, she had to withdraw her

gaze.

Naturally, this silent look was seen by Diana, who had been watching Leopold, and her expression was

indescribable. The anger that kept growing in her heart almost consumed her, and she wanted to

destroy everything before her. This anger was building up in her heart, almost covering her whole being

in it.

At that moment, a warm touch landed on Diana's shoulder and lightly caressed her.

Diana looked up and saw Lidia, who was sitting next to her, frowning and looking at her with concern at

the moment, and gently shook her head at her.

Diana's closed hand loosened and Lidia took her hand in hers.

Although there were some things I didn't know very well, I knew how much Diana cared about

Leopoldo.

He did not want her to be disadvantaged in any way, as Diana was the artist with the most potential

and commercial value under his command.

The two moved cautiously and no one noticed.

Once the meeting was over, Diana had regained her usual composure, smiling she approached

Leopoldo's side, looking at him and speaking in a low voice:

-Leo, come on, let's have dinner together.

I had promised him before.

Diana looked at Mariana, who was standing next to Leopoldo, smiled meaningfully and invited her with

a smile:

-Mari, if you are free later, why don't you come to dinner with us?

With that, he stepped forward and took Leopoldo's arm, as if declaring his sovereignty.

Mariana said indifferently:

-Thank you, but no.

At that moment, Lidia, who was next to Diana, smiled and stepped forward, looked at the silent

Leopoldo before looking at Mariana and spoke cordially.

-Miss Ortiz, you and Diana are friends, so there is no need to be so polite. Besides, in this

collaboration, your designs are deeply intentional, and Diana has not yet understood some of them.

Diana smiled gently, nodded her head, looked at Leopoldo and spoke condescendingly:

-Indeed, what I heard a moment ago at the meeting I only half understood, if you could explain it to me

again, it would be even better.

-Yes, since we all know each other, Miss Ortiz should go to dinner together and explain to Diana

properly. If she understands the deeper meaning of this, she will be able to express her emotions more

accurately when she puts on the suit for the approval, won't she?

The two cooperated with each other, and Mariana did not know what to do.

With cold intent, Mariana raised her eyes to look at Diana and said with a hard tone.

-Miss Solis, if you have something else you didn't understand, I can tell you another time, I'll leave your

dinner alone.

I really didn't want to be with Leopoldo and Diana.

However, it was obvious that Diana did not feel the same way.

-We are friends! Besides, what's done today has to be done today, so, since I didn't understand today,

then why don't you give me an explanation today, and save yourself the trouble of making another

appointment to see me next time!

Diana let go of Leopoldo and stepped forward to pull Mariana.

Mariana didn't have time to say anything else before she was pushed forward.

Mariana was very reluctant, but if she refused at this point, it would be too disrespectful to Diana. Now This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.

that all three parties were working together, they could not let one of them feel too embarrassed.

Ana, who was behind the group, saw the scene and became a little worried, but didn't know what to do

for a while.

Suddenly, a light shone in my mind and I had a solution.

The three of them had just left, but to their surprise, there was a man standing in the doorway. Seeing

Mariana leave, he removed his sunglasses from his face, revealing a pair of eyes full of deep feelings.

-Mari, I heard you got a promotion today. In that case, you must invite me to dinner, right?

Said the man, tapping Mariana's shoulder with a mocking sense.

Mariana was very surprised by Xavier's sudden appearance. After a brief daze, she smiled and spoke:

-Of course, as long as you are willing.

They were both joking.

Diana looked at the two people joking and laughing in front of her, she only felt the atmosphere next to

her getting colder and colder. She looked at Leopoldo, whose eyes were cold and had a dangerous

gleam in them.

Diana stepped forward and smiled softly:

-Xavier, a moment ago Mariana was about to go to dinner with us, in that case, then why don't you join

us?

Hearing the voice, Xavier looked slightly at Diana and smiled slightly:

-That would be perfect.

Then, he was aware of a pair of cold, stern eyes staring at him with indescribable meaning and a heavy

sense of oppression.

However, the smile on Xavier's mouth was still debauched, never mind that look. He took a step

forward and grabbed Mariana's shoulder:

-Let's go.

Mariana unconsciously looked behind, then she saw Diana approach Leopoldo and say something in

his ear, they were both very sweet.

Mariana only felt the desolation and sadness envelop her quickly, she could not escape, she could only

see how it was sinking little by little in her.

Mariana did not move Xavier's hand away from her shoulder, her face was frank, but with a slightly icy

tinge.

Xavier looked at Mariana, the smile on his mouth did not change in the slightest.
