Chapter 167: Sarcasm

"You don't want anyone to know about our relationship, do you? So what are you doing now?"

For a moment, Mariana felt that she couldn't understand him, that she couldn't understand what the hell he was thinking!

And at this moment, Xavier's mind was also filled with shock. He turned his head and let his gaze fall upon her, and seeing the way she pursed her lips and didn't reply, he already understood. It was the truth.

He shivered slightly, but the next moment, anger and anguish for her came over him again.

The past appeared before her eyes like the projection of a movie. It seemed that the man in front of her had provoked everything Mariana had gone through.

-So as her husband, you just watched her being bullied on set? How Andrea bullied her and how she was falsely accused by Diana? And now you've watched her have a miscarriage? Mariana made an effort to clench her hands, but she could not stop the trembling of her body, the only thing she was able to perceive was the heat that was being lost little by little. Leopoldo looked coldly at Xavier and said:

-It doesn't seem to be Mr. Bolaño's business, does it? There are some things that outsiders shouldn't get involved in, and naturally they shouldn't. Mariana was agitated and restless, her hands crossed and the pain in her palms made her feel numb. Finally, she could not help but speak softly: -Did you want to come and tell me the explanation?

The whispered words interrupted the conversation between the two, causing a gap between them through which a cold wind whistled continuously.

-Explanation? What do you care about the damn explanation when you and your lover are flirting here? In fact, you're happy that this child is dead and out of your way, aren't you?

The cruel words reached Mariana's ears unhindered and sent a shiver through her heart. She raised her head and looked at Leopoldo with an incredulous look.

-Do you know what you are saying yourself?

Leopoldo smiled a cold smile and the look he gave me became implacable as usual.

-Mariana, you should remember that you're married now! You'd better stay out of some things.

The tone was flat, but the words expressed the mockery of having condemned her.

Suddenly Mariana, who had been looking angrily at Leopoldo, burst out laughing. At first the laughter was small and only drawn to her lips, but gradually it spread across her face and her voice grew louder, as if it were something so ridiculous that she could not stop laughing.

Xavier looked at her with thin pursed lips, his eyes had lost their usual playfulness and were flecked with undetectable concern.

-Is that so? In that case, you've heard about our relationship, why still won't you let me go? I already said it once at your grandmother's house, but then... I was pregnant, now that the baby has died, and you and Diana are in love, no one will stop you without me.

The ethereal voice of the woman passed Leopold's ears, the determination between her sentence made his eyes widen and his heart instantly fill with nervousness.

"So he's always been wanting to leave! Is it because of him that she wanted to split that then?"

The atmosphere in the room became tense in the blink of an eye.

At this moment, the door opened again. It was Carmen who entered.

He looked at the people in front of him without realizing that something was wrong, instead, he was happy to visit Leopoldo visiting Mariana and showed a smile of satisfaction on his face.

-Señor Durán, have you come to keep the Señora company? Since you left last time, she is in much better spirits and has been eating well these days, and from time to time Señor Bolaño and Señorita Lopez have come to talk to her.

With that, she looked at Xavier with a kind expression.

However, there was no one to answer her. It was then that he saw the tears in Mariana's eyes, her face growing paler and paler and her dry lips pursed in shame.

Leopoldo turned outside the door and instantly disappeared from sight.

The sound of leather shoes scraping against the floor reached Mariana's ears, making her flinch slightly, but without saying anything else.

Xavier, who was watching her from the side, reached over and tried to lift her hand that was dangling at her side, but it did nothing.

-Mariana, stop being sad. If the time really comes, you could come to me then.

After a pause, she smiled at Carmen and turned to leave as well.

He had left shortly after Leopoldo left, so he had just arrived at the subway garage when he saw Leopoldo had not yet left.

With a hatred in his eyes, Xavier immediately stepped forward and slammed his fist into his head. The blow was hard, he had used all his strength.

Leopold frowned and looked up at the man in front of him, the corner of his mouth swelled and blood spilled then. He reached up and wiped it off, stepped forward and punched him back. Xavier, naturally, was not about to let him off easy.

-This one is for Mariana's baby, and this one is for her!

The parking lot was almost empty at this point, but lingering in the shadows was a reporter who had been following Xavier. Not expecting to be lucky enough to come across such a shocking piece of information today, his hands shook with excitement as he quickly clicked the shutter and began snapping photos.

From this subtle angle, the bruises on both of their faces were clearly visible.

The next day, the Internet was in an uproar and the discussion seemed to have no end like boiling water.

All major websites were marked with bold red headlines: Leopoldo, president of Grupo Duran, and Xavier, a well-known domestic actor, fought for love in the parking lot!

The public naturally wanted to see such a scandal involving such rich, powerful and handsome men, so within minutes, the discussion had reached a million and the influence was always high. Diana was the only one who could relate to the former since she was rumored to be with Xavier.

And the latter, who had millions of fans, had had numerous romances but they were all for show, not genuine; but in fact one day he got into a fight with Leopoldo over a woman, which no one expected and his fans were devastated!

The story did not mention who the woman was, but someone thoroughly researched the women who had been involved with both men at the same time, and Diana was the most corresponding!

Suddenly, the news of the fight between Leopoldo and Xavier over Diana was widely covered and spreading through the streets, and naturally the movie Emperatriz Santa, financed by Grupo Durán and starring Xavier and Diana, was at the top of the search list.

Lidia Ramos, the agent, looked over at her who was sitting on the couch flipping through a magazine, her face full of smiles.

He approached her obsequiously with the tablet in his hand, very prurient to be able to laugh so freely at this moment. -Diana, look at all the comments on the Internet!
