Chapter 191: I wouldn't let it go

When Mariana returned to the villa, the house was dark. She remembered the scene of that day.

It was obvious that Leopoldo had not returned.

Mariana collapsed tiredly on the bed and stared at the ceiling blankly.

Having received too much information today, Mariana's mind was in turmoil and it was very difficult to bear. As soon as she closed her eyes, those images came out and overwhelmed her.

In the end, Mariana fell asleep amidst her various thoughts.

***

And Diana looked at Leopoldo, who had led her to the door, and smiled, with a seductive look in her eyes: -Come in, Leo.

Leopold's cold, stern eyes rested on the woman for a moment before turning away, he said indifferently:

-It's late, you should go back and rest.

With that, he was about to turn and walk away.

A fierce glint shone in Diana's eyes and the smile on her face froze. She hugged Leopoldo tightly from behind and pressed her cheek against his broad back. -Leo, don't you even want to come in? You're...

The words that followed were unspoken, as if she had been greatly aggrieved.

Leopoldo sighed helplessly, furrowed his eyebrows and looked at the hand around his waist. He grabbed Diana's hands and pulled them away before turning around. -It's not like that, Diana, you're tired today too, you'd better rest soon.

The tone was not as cold and hard as a moment ago, but had more warmth and tenderness.

Diana raised her head, her eyes already watery, showing a pampered look that could only be revealed in front of her lover.

Diana reached out to grasp the corner of Leopoldo's coat and said softly:

-So you'll have dinner with me tomorrow?

Leopoldo nodded his head and accepted it.

At that moment, Diana's face broke into a smile again, looking satisfied. This made Leopoldo's eyes show some appreciation and relief.

Diana looked at Leopoldo's figure disappearing behind the elevator doors, and the smile on her face turned into a grimace.

She knew that Leopold wanted her to be kind and decent, so, in that situation, she could no longer beg him and had to let him go. She just had to offer such a compromise.

This was not the way she wanted to get along with him, and she could feel Leopold slowly drifting away from her. It was a bad feeling that overwhelmed her and even made her panic. She wouldn't let go! Leopoldo could only be hers!

His hands clenched into fists, not noticing the pain caused by the nails in his palms.

The next day, Mariana arrived at the office early, as usual, and handed the papers to Elisa.

Although she was a little surprised by the lack of incidents, at least it was a good start, and Mariana was still a little happy.

When Mariana returned to her seat, Nuria approached her and handed her tomorrow's itinerary:

-Tomorrow, Diana will come to the office to see our design drawings. As this time it was mainly you who did the design, I also told Elisa when I gave her the drawings, that you would be the main person in charge of presenting them tomorrow, and she agreed.

Nuria paused, patted Mariana's shoulder and said with a smile:

-Do your best tomorrow!

Mariana's eyes widened and the fingers holding the itinerary tightened slightly, very excited.

She had not expected Nuria to give her such an important job, and Elisa had accepted!

The joy in Mariana's heart was so full that it seemed to overflow, and she smiled at Nuria and said:

-Thank you very much, Nuria.

Nuria waved her hand, as if she had also caught Mariana's joy, and couldn't help but smile.

-You deserve all this.

Nuria's eyes were full of gratitude. In fact, she had had more contact with Mariana during this period and had realized that many of the statements on the Internet were not entirely correct. Therefore, even if it was not that person's order, I still wanted to help Mariana.

-Okay, get ready, I look forward to your performance tomorrow.

Nuria finished speaking and turned around to go back to her seat and sit down.

In an unusually excited mood, Mariana started working on her PowerPoint.

If all goes well tomorrow, she will then be firmly established in her new company, which was the most urgent thing for her now.

At noon, Nuria saw Mariana, who was still focused on her computer, wide-eyed and not at all tired.

Intrigued, Nuria quietly walked up behind her and glanced at the contents of the computer screen, but froze.

I had thought Mariana was struggling to create her presentation at the time, but I hadn't expected that she had already finished it and was now reviewing it, over and over again. There were already several files with similar names.

Nuria was surprised, in fact, she did not expect Mariana to be so serious.

Nuria sighed and patted Mariana's shoulder:

-It's already noon, why don't we have lunch together? It's not too late to keep checking it when we finish eating.

-To eat first, I'll see what else I need to keep checking.

Mariana was serious and focused, not stopped by Nuria's words.

Nuria felt embarrassed that a person with an incredible talent for design was also so serious.

Leonor, behind her, stood up at that moment, looked at Mariana and went over to pull Nuria:

-Okay, since Mariana has to keep working, let's bring her something to take after dinner.

Nuria nodded, that was the only way to go.

After a while, Mariana was the only one left in the office.

And all this fell in the eyes of the people behind the window.

Elisa looked at Mariana, who was still revising her manuscript, and felt a little dazed, as if she saw herself earlier.

Elisa lowered her head and looked at the USB stick in her hand, her heart clenched. She couldn't go back, they had been on opposite sides when they met, and would be in the future.
