Please behave My Lord novel Chapter 76

Chapter 76: He treats me very well

The woman had already put down the tall glass in her hand and leaned over to the couch behind her.

-Come and sit down.

Mariana nodded, walked over and sat down on one side, her eyes looking straight ahead and not looking at Mrs. Perez.

A laugh rang in his ears, soft and affectionate:

-Relax, I'm not a tiger," he continued after a pause, "look at you, Leopoldo doesn't treat you well, does he?

In an instant, she remembered what Leopoldo had done a moment ago, and Mariana spoke in a soft voice:

-It's not like that, he treats me very well.

-You don't have to explain it to me, I know exactly what he looks like.

Mariana kept silent and did not speak.

-I am relieved to see you today.

Mrs. Perez looked at Mariana, who was calm, and felt relieved. Since it all happened at the banquet that she celebrated, the lady knew exactly what had happened and she liked Mariana's reaction very much.

Mariana already knew what Mrs. Perez was talking about, but she didn't say anything, she didn't know anything about her nominal mother-in-law who was long gone, so she didn't know what to say. However, something occurred to her. The reason this lady wanted to see her was only to take care of her old friend's son, but Mariana was not really Leopoldo's wife, they were only married by agreement.

-Leopoldo's mother was a very kind person, so in the end.... Leopoldo, though he may seem cold and heartless, is naturally just like his mother, and will be someone to trust.

-I know, Mr. Durán has helped me a lot.

At these words, Mrs. Perez nodded in satisfaction.

The two chatted some more, Mariana suddenly remembered what Perla had ordered her to do, and said:

-Mrs. Perez, I am a designer, if you are willing, I can design a dress for you as a gift from me.

These words were spoken as if she were showing off her skills, not as the words of someone like Mariana. Mrs. Perez gently raised the tall glass on the table in front of her:

-This wasn't your idea, was it? If I'm not mistaken, it must have been Mrs. Durán's idea, right?

The word Mrs. Durán was emphasized with a strange emotion.

Mariana nodded her head slightly, her eyes sparkling with a hint of embarrassment,

-Indeed.

As Mrs. Perez was an old friend of Leopoldo's mother, she was naturally familiar with the Duran family affairs.

-You, girl, you are really innocent, do you really believe that Mrs. Durán is asking you to make clothes for me? How is it possible? It's just a matter of fundraising.

Mariana did not understand what Mrs. Perez had said.

When she left Mrs. Perez's room, Mariana did not want to stay any longer. Mariana stood at the hotel entrance waiting for Leopoldo's car, but she couldn't help but feel slightly lost. "If Leopoldo has gone to see Mrs. Perez and what have the two of them talked about?"

Mariana respected a woman like Mrs. Perez very much, she was like a bird that only soared in the sky, free and unrestricted, and there was nothing that could imprison her.

Mariana wanted to be her, but sighed slightly at the thought of her current situation. Mariana shook her head slightly. "But I can't, and I can't do it."

Suddenly, a black Maybach pulled up in front of her, the rear window rolled down, revealing a face as cold as a Greek fresco in a church.

-Enter.

Mariana didn't say anything, she just got into the car.

Mrs. Perez had already given Mariana a skirt to take off her dirty and wet dress. This skirt was more sensual.

Leopoldo looked at her out of the corner of his eye and his face darkened slightly:

-If you wear this suit to the banquet, there will be more than one man who will approach you.

When Mariana heard the words with some mockery, Mariana's face paled for a moment, her lower lip bitten with a deep mark.

-That man, I don't really know her, and I don't...

Mariana tried to explain herself, but before she could finish, she was abruptly interrupted.
