Chapter 291: Back Door

Chapter 291: Back Door

-Director, this...

After hearing the director's words, all the staff looked at each other with a blank stare. They had

unanimously approved and decided to replace Mariana, but the director suddenly said no to the

replacement, which was really hard for them to accept.

Several of them were ready to see Mariana's jokes, but at that crucial moment, Leopoldo suddenly

appeared.

The staff was not stupid, they understood Leopoldo's intention and the director could not refute it.

If Mariana showed up now, the director's team would probably tear her to shreds.

-Why? If Mariana were not backed by Mr. Durán, would she have made it to Super Diseño? -one of the

employees muttered and complained.

Although he knew that Mariana was untouchable, he was still jealous of Mariana, jealous that she had

a big shot like Leopoldo as her back-up.

"How can anyone not hold a grudge when a heroic rescue falls to someone like Mariana, who isn't

even famous?"

-Yes, he probably used Mr. Durán's connections to buy off one of the mentors. I don't think it's good

either.

-I really don't know why Mr. Durán would speak for such a person. Isn't it too unpleasant to go out the

back door?

When one person took the initiative, the others followed suit and launched a crusade against Mariana's

faults, and for a while the chatter in the room grew louder and louder, causing the director a headache.

-How could someone as disgusting as her get into Mr. Durán's company? She must have used some

kind of trick.

-Really, a contestant like Mariana is probably of no use to the program other than to get us in trouble.

Without noticing the change in the director's face, people continued chatting about Mariana, and his

words became more and more unpleasant, probably all the worst words of his life were used to

describe Mariana.

Mariana had no idea that she was being called a "bitch" or a "bad girl," and she had no idea that such a

storm would break out in the boardroom as soon as she left the program.

-That's enough! -rubbing his temples, the director silenced everyone in the room.

It was the first time the director had ever been so angry in front of his staff, and no one dared to speak

up for fear of angering him further.

-I know everyone has many opinions about Mariana, and so do I, but you all heard what Mr. Durán

said.

The director's words were spoken very faintly, but the meaning was clear.

After hearing the director's words, the staff said nothing more, but their hatred for Mariana grew

stronger and stronger.

Yes, they had heard Leopoldo's words, who would dare to go against Leopoldo? If they insisted on

replacing Mariana, they might end up suffering themselves, and they could do nothing but suffer the

depression that Mariana brought.

-Ma'am, you should go downstairs and get something to eat. It's bad for the body if you don't eat

properly.

Arriving to stand in front of Mariana's room, Carmen raised her hand and knocked on her door, trying to

get her to open it.

With less than a week to go before the fourth edition of Super Design, Mariana was getting busier and

busier as the contest approached, often locking herself in her room to prepare.

Mariana's goal is to do her best in each of the next editions of the competition in order to achieve a

good ranking.

Since she wanted to make her name known in the Super Design, Mariana had to be very careful and

wanted to be in first place.

-Carmen, I'll eat later.

Mariana was so busy flipping through the design books she had on hand, and she was always so

demanding of herself, studying everything she could about design, that she almost forgot she had

missed dinner if Carmen hadn't rushed over.

She rubbed her hand over her belly, which had flattened with hunger, but Mariana still didn't eat,

insisting on finishing the task at hand first. © NôvelDrama.Org - All rights reserved.

-Ma'am, you told me an hour ago that you would eat later, and it's already 9 o'clock at night. If you don't

eat something, your body won't be able to take it anymore. If that happens, how will you be able to

compete with the others?

Carmen was adamant, insisting that Mariana must eat before working on her design.

-All right.

After hearing Carmen's last words, Mariana opted to give up. Not only would Carmen interrupt her

progress if she kept bothering her, but she really couldn't compete with the other contestants without a

good body.

No one should be underestimated who can stay on top of the design chart in the fourth period, and

Mariana would choose to eat well just for the sake of competition.

-Ma'am, this way please. I've re-made the food for you, in case it doesn't taste good to you.

After repeatedly reheating the food that had been prepared earlier in the morning, Carmen was unable

to invite Mariana downstairs for dinner.

Now that Mariana had finally agreed to come down for dinner, Carmen was overjoyed and took her to

the table.

-Madam, try this, it's made to your liking. You haven't eaten for two meals, you need to eat more now.

Carmen served Mariana a bowl of rice, and then Carmen kept adding vegetables to Mariana, as if she

was afraid that Mariana would not have enough to eat.

Knowing that Carmen was thinking about her own health, Mariana could say no more. But when her

eyes looked at the mountain of food in front of her, Mariana's hands trembled a little.

Mariana finally chose to smile bitterly and ate all the rice in front of her under Carmen's supervision

before Carmen let her go.
