Please behave My Lord

Chapter 274: Scandals

Chapter 274: Scandals

Something like a scandal was not something an artist should worry about, because his agent would

take care of it.

The Mariana rumors were getting more and more intense, so Leopoldo, after deliberately posting a lot

of news on the Internet, still couldn't suppress the heat of it, so he asked Lionel, his assistant, to put the

story of Elisa's withdrawal from the contest.

-Mr. Duran, it's still not working, Miss Diana's fans are not buying it," Lionel ran back anxiously to

report.

Leopold frowned with a face full of concern, dusting a cigarette he held between his fingers from time to

time, and turned his gaze into the distance as he pondered something.

-I've got it, go now," he said sullenly, raising his hand to signal her to leave.

Once the recording was finished, the moment Mariana stepped out she felt like she had really breathed

some fresh air. She stretched and let out a deep sigh to relax.

-Mrs. Soler, why are you still here? -she greeted Linda Soler, a member of the staff, in a friendly

manner.

Normally Mariana liked to chat with her on the scene, but surprisingly she ignored her.

"Linda doesn't seem to be behaving as she usually does?"

She wondered a bit and tried to ask someone else, but instead saw all the staff talking behind her back.

She blinked again in confusion and realized it wasn't going well.

"What's wrong, why is everyone being weird?"

He thought as he watched the faces of the others.

-Mariana, it has been a very hard time for you, you have lost a lot of weight.

At that moment, Diana, who had emerged from the other side of the room, took his hand and spoke to

him with false concern.

Those who did not know the truth would think that Diana was worried about the players, but Mariana

was clear that she did not mean it.

-Thank you, teacher," he thanked her kindly, taking her hand quietly.

He did not like Diana and called her a teacher only for showmanship effect, otherwise, he did not want

to have any dealings with her.

The moment she withdrew her hand, Mariana could clearly see Diana's smile freeze, but soon she was

smiling again.

After all, actors were the best at hiding their emotions.

-Mariana, don't you know, now the Internet is full of scandals about you. All the comments bother my

eyes, and I'm sure they'll bother you more -Diana pretended to be kind enough to inform.

"Scandals?"

Mariana didn't understand it, but Nuria handed her the phone in time for her to read what it said.

Then she became slightly angry and pursed her lips.

Diana was pleased to see the look on his face. She wanted to get on Mariana's nerves.

-Mariana, I don't believe what they say that there's someone...

Diana opened her mouth, but in the end said nothing, with hesitation and distress evident on her face. Content rights belong to NôvelDrama.Org.

However, Mariana was the only one who recognized that these looks were false.

-There's no one behind me," he replied coolly. I didn't want to argue with her.

She was already of a cold nature and speaking expressionlessly at this time made others afraid of her.

-Mariana, you know I didn't mean that. But everyone says that about you, you...

Diana's eyes filled with concern, making it seem as if Mariana was acting arrogant while she was very

afraid of her.

-Miss Diana is right, all the news says so. What are you defending? -the other staff member chorused.

-Mariana must have cheated in the competition, otherwise how else would she be number one? People

who are better than her are ranked lower, there must be an inner workings between this," the other

workers muttered, pointing their fingers at the spot where she stood.

Instead of saying anything, Diana just looked at the people around her in silence, as she had achieved

her goal, and let the staff continue to add fuel to the fire.

-Diana, how can you say that, you're just spreading the words without any proof! You don't know her

well, how do you know what kind of person she is? Don't talk about others until you've been able to

take care of your own -Nuria, standing to the side, finally couldn't take it anymore and spoke seriously.

He then approached Diana angrily.

She was already moody and had trouble controlling her emotions.

And besides, today Diana spoke publicly about her friend. Did she really believe that because she had

so many fans she could be superior to everyone?

-What are you doing? Don't tell Miss Diana what to do.

Diana's assistant pushed her and Nuria took a few steps backwards as she lost her balance.

Fortunately, Mariana held her from behind. Behind her back was the edge of the stage; if she had

fallen, her head would probably have been damaged.

-Did you push me? -he asked incredulously.

An insignificant assistant had the audacity to act so haughtily, like father, like son.

-So what if I pushed you? Who told you to be so insensitive as to yell at Miss Diana? She was only

trying to warn Mariana, who are you to interfere?

The assistant became more arrogant and aggressive when Diana did not stop her.

Mariana took Nuria by the hand and whispered in her ear.

-Forget it.

But she was so angry right now that she didn't care about any question of respect. She hated most

these kinds of people who spoke without thinking and bullied people to their heart's content by

possessing numerous followers.

"If I don't teach this assistant a lesson today, she won't know how to behave in the future. Do you really

think that because she is Diana's person, no one will dare to scold her?"

He grumbled in his mind, his face flushed with anger.

-My assistant doesn't know anything and has offended them, I'm very sorry. But there is nothing wrong

in what I said, it was just a gentle reminder -Diana spoke sadly as if someone had bullied her.

-Kind reminder? -asked Nuria again, squinting her eyes.

-Yes.

Seeing her shamelessness, she could no longer contain her anger, so she stepped forward and

pushed her. She hadn't meant to make a scene, but she didn't like Diana bullying Mariana and wanted

to defend for her friend, however, she didn't expect her to be as fragile as a doll.

-Ah, that hurt!

Diana took a deep breath, leaning against the person holding her.

She looked at Leopoldo with her face wrinkled in pain and her eyes watering.

Concern slowly appeared in the man's eyes. He lifted Diana and examined her carefully, fearing that

she had been injured.

"Come on, I didn't use much force."

Nuria's mouth dropped open at Diana's affected look. If she had seen Leopoldo coming, she certainly

wouldn't have pushed her.

-Are you all right? Are you hurt?

The restlessness in Leopoldo's eyes was evident.

Behind him, Mariana, silently observing how nervous he was, felt something catch in her throat and

then saw Diana gently shaking her head with a smile.

He was smiling at her, an expression filled with so much irony that it made her heart sting hard.
