Chapter 233: I want to... kiss her
After that, the man's cold gaze swept faintly at the woman sitting not far away, then he turned away and
spoke in a cold voice,
-Come on, there's something else there.
After saying that, he turned and left.
A slight look of embarrassment appeared on her face, Diana's icy eyes glared fiercely at Mariana,
before following him and walking away.
After the main characters left, there was nothing else to see, so the crowd dispersed and stopped
watching.
Ana returned to Mariana's side, not expecting today's problems to be solved by Leopoldo.
As she turned around and sat down next to Mariana, Ana bit her lip and reached out, holding the
woman's slender hands, a little worried.
During this period of time, I knew exactly how many trials and adversities Mariana had suffered.
-Mari, don't listen to those people, they don't know what the truth is like. They are just some people
who like to listen to gossip.
Naturally, among all these events, Mariana was the most slandered, and many of them even singled
her out.
Hiding the abnormal expression in her eyes, Mariana turned her head to look at Ana who stood beside
her with a worried face, the corner of her mouth still curved in a faint smile.
-Well, Ana, I'm fine. I was just thinking about what happened before.
When Leopold heard the two say that her dress was a torn dress, his face suddenly became indifferent.
Eyes lowered, she looked down at the red dress on her body, Mariana's eyebrows furrowed deeply, but
she couldn't figure out the connection.
At that moment, Leopoldo's assistant approached her, nodded to Ana and then spoke in a low, formal
voice.
-Mrs. Mariana, you will have to come up to give a speech later.
With a slight twinkle in her eye, Mariana looked at the assistant in front of her and spoke softly,
-You're not here?
A slight hesitation crossed his face, and in an instant, the assistant still responded earnestly.
-This company has always been in the shadows, and it will be in the future. Mr. Durán does not want to
show himself in front of people.
Hearing these words, Mariana's eyebrows furrowed slightly. She always felt there were some gaps in
the assistant's words, but for a moment she couldn't find where.
In the end, he nodded and followed.
Backstage, the assistant led her to a room, opened the door and let her in, but then disappeared.
A trace of confusion shone in her eyes, Mariana pursed her lips, but, trusting the assistant, she
continued to enter.
Just after walking around the corner, he saw a man sitting quietly cross-legged on the couch. The
man's eyes were downcast and he was staring at the A4 paper in his hands. A cold air surrounded his
body.
Hearing a noise, the man raised his head and his icy eyes fell directly on Mariana's body.
With a slight tremor in her heart, Mariana stood still and said in a soft voice: "Why are you here?
Placing the paper he held calmly on the table in front of her, Leopoldo spoke indifferently.
-This is the speech you will need later.
In fact, the reason the assistant had brought her here was to ask her to prepare a speech.
Walking forward, Mariana bent down to pick up the script on the table, as it was blocked by the man,
she had to reach through it to get the speech.
The man was leaning idly on the couch behind him, and Mariana's slight leaning caused strands of hair
to brush against his cold face, evoking a slight tingling sensation, and the fragrance of the woman's
body lingered between his nostrils.
There was a flash in his eyes, and Leopold's thin lips pursed, the lump in his throat becoming
uncontrollable.
-You...
As soon as he opened his mouth, he did not expect Leopold to be surprised by the sudden words, and
his trembling body became even more unsteady and fell towards the man. © 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.
Then, a soft body appeared in the man's arms.
Such a shocking change was unexpected for both of them. The cold man raised his eyes and his gaze
rested deeply on the stunned woman.
At this moment, Mariana only felt that her mind was blank, and the faint smell of tobacco enveloped her
body, making her heart flutter as if it was about to jump out of her chest the next time.
Her lips opened unconsciously, Mariana's pupils shrunk slightly with an indescribable meaning, her
eyes were full of stupefaction. And she couldn't help but clench her palms and then clenched them into
fists.
The two were so close that their noses smelled each other, and at the moment they had just fallen,
Mariana's lips even lightly brushed the tip of Leopoldo's upturned nose.
An ambiguous atmosphere rippled in the room, the bodies of both were gradually warming up, and the
touching skin was even warmer.
Looking at the red lips before him, Leopold's eyes twitched slightly. Some fiery emotions passed, but
then faded into the deep darkness.
With a twinkle in his eye, Leopold lowered his head slightly and slowly approached the slightly open
lips of the woman in front of him.
Looking at the cold face that kept enlarging in front of her, Mariana's consciousness suddenly came to.
She pushed the man away, standing up and even taking half a step back, reaching out in some panic
to cover her lips.
What just happened was very sudden, I didn't expect Leopoldo to really want to... kiss her.
The man was pushed back by her and the unbridled excitement faded on the spot, becoming normal.
Trying to calm herself, Mariana lowered her gaze and her heart panicked, not daring to look at the man.
However, at that moment, he discovered that his hands were empty. The speech he had just held in his
hands was nowhere to be found.
With a shudder in her heart, Mariana lifted her head and looked around the couch, finally finding the A4
sheet of paper next to the man's feet, which was already a bit crumpled due to tension and confusion.
However, Mariana still paused, a little helplessly. If she wanted to resume this discourse now, she
would inevitably have to walk back to Leopoldo's side.
Pursing her lips, Mariana felt very useless.
Suddenly, he remembered what Leopoldo had just said and said bitterly,
-What did you... did you just say?
Hearing her words, the man raised his head and looked at Mariana, a slight feeling appeared in his
eyes, then disappeared and finally returned to normal.
-Nothing.
Then, bending down, he naturally picked up the speech from the floor and handed it to Mariana, as if
nothing had happened.
After some hesitation, Mariana still stepped forward and took the script, pausing slightly at her feet and
speaking in a trembling voice,
-Since there's nothing to do, then I'll go first.
After saying that, without waiting for Leopoldo to say anything, he quickly left.
Looking at Mariana's back, slightly frightened, with cold and stern eyes, Leopoldo stood up, slightly
straightened his black suit and also went out.
