At that moment, listening to Nuria's words, Leonor continued: -Yes, those who are coming to the
banquet today are also well-known people in the fashion circle, so they will definitely find the
differences between the two dresses and will not feel that there is anything similar between them.
After hearing their words of comfort, Mariana looked at the white dress she was wearing with a strange
emotion in her eyes.
Although the two dresses were not exactly alike, even a designer like Ana would find them similar at
first glance, so the two dresses were actually very similar.
Mariana let out a bitter laugh. Looking at them, she said in the lightest possible tone: -Well, I don't mind
wearing a similar dress to Diana's.
Hearing this, Nuria smiled along with her.
-Yes, that's no big deal.
Then, not long after, a man appeared at the door and attracted the attention of many women.
At that moment, Ana gently tapped Mariana's shoulder. Her eyes looked towards the door and she said
in a low voice: -Mari, I didn't expect you to invite Xavier, he is really handsome.
Hearing that, Mariana raised her head, but she didn't expect Xavier to be looking at her too. His eyes
were full of tenderness.
Xavier smiled and nodded toward the people around him to greet them. Then he turned to Mariana.
-How are you doing? Do you think I look handsome today?
Standing next to Mariana, noting that the woman was looking at him, Xavier couldn't help but say
flirtatiously.
-Yes.
Mariana nodded her head, feeling a little helpless.
However, to her surprise, the next moment Xavier sat down next to her, extended his hand and greeted
Ana and the others.
Nuria and Leonor looked at each other as they both sensed something.
-Mariana, why are you coming here so early?
With that, she reached out and pulled a cocktail from the tray that was in the hands of the passing
bartender, then gently clinked it against Mariana's glass, causing a distinct noise.
-This is a banquet held by our company after all.
As an employee of the Elamorad Company, I naturally had to come in early to see what else was
needed on site.
Xavier smiled. He is very attractive, his eyelashes were so thick and curly that people couldn't take
their eyes off them.
At that moment, Xavier, who had been lowering his head and smiling as if he had heard some kind of
joke, raised his head and looked at Mariana.
-What? Why are you looking at me like that, are you in love with me?
Xavier slowly approached Mariana, the distance between them was so close that they could even feel
each other's breath.
-Or my pretty face?
Feeling the man's warm breath, Mariana frowned.
He hurriedly pushed Xavier away, Mariana's breath hitched. She took half a step back immediately,
distancing herself from the man.
-What are you talking about? How come I didn't realize you turned out to be such a narcissistic person?
Looking at Xavier, Mariana was a little annoyed by his behavior.
-Okay, don't be so serious. I'm kidding.
Letting out a sigh, Xavier sat up straighter, but in his eyes there was still a hint of a different emotion.
The three people next to them naturally saw the interaction between the two, and sensed that
something was off. But they didn't know if it was Mariana's attitude towards Xavier or Xavier's attitude
towards Mariana.
However, the interaction between them was also seen by another man.
The man's eyes narrowed as he watched Xavier and Mariana interact so intimately, feeling as if a thorn
had stuck in his soft heart, causing him great pain.
Immediately, his heart was filled with anger. He clenched the cup tightly in his hand, trying to suppress
his emotions.
At that moment, Mariana's face blushed, making her more attractive.
Leopoldo was next to Diana, she didn't expect the man next to her to be thinking about another woman
at this moment. When he finished his talk with other people, she furrowed her eyebrows and asked in a
soft voice.
-Leo, what's wrong? Why are you a little distracted?
Hearing the question, Leopoldo came to his senses and gulped the wine in his glass. Looking at the
man's demeanor, Diana found the man in front of her very sexy.
Seeing the envious looks of the other women around her, Diana became even more smug, reaching
out and taking Leopoldo's arm, her body pressed against Leopoldo as if she were swearing
sovereignty.
This man at her side was now hers, so she accepted his jealous glances.
-Well, Leo, I have to go say hello to the others, so can you wait here for a while?
Leopoldo looked at Diana and then nodded his head. This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.
Diana walked to the side and after briefly greeting the others, she saw Mariana and Xavier not far
away. They were chatting and looked very happy.
In fact, he appreciated the change in Leopoldo's mood. And he also knew that this change was related
to the woman in front of him.
Although she felt very unhappy, Diana still kept her smile on, like a mask she would never remove.
Then, Diana looked at Mariana's white dress and her eyes filled with fierceness.
In fact, she had heard from other people in the Elamorad company that Mariana owned such a dress,
so today she deliberately wore a white dress that resembled hers, hoping to overpower her at the party.
