Chapter 194: The Winner and the Loser

Seeing the look on Leopoldo's face, Diana was quick to say:

-Leo, what do you think about the truth of this matter?

As soon as the words fell, the conference room seemed much quieter and, instead of whispering, everyone concentrated and even waited for Leopold's response.

The earlier rumors about the love triangle of Diana, Leopoldo and Mariana had not gone away, and now that people had seen it with their own eyes, they were even more excited. At that time, Leopoldo was nothing more than a very close character to Mr. Castro, at most a friend of his, and he had no interaction with them.

At that moment, Elisa also looked at Leopoldo, she wanted to know if she and Mariana, who was more important in Leopoldo's mind.

-I'm afraid it's not entirely fair for Director Elisa to say that others plagiarize after having produced these drafts?

The cold words fell loudly on everyone's ears.

The crowd had already understood Leopoldo's choice, and for a moment, there were mixed feelings in their hearts, but it was difficult to define what those feelings were. Mariana's body shook hard and she raised her eyes to look at Leopoldo, with a look of excitement and disbelief.

And his heart was beating fiercely at that moment.

Elisa's face paled instantly and she froze in her position, unable to continue standing.

In fact, according to his plan, this was nothing more than a trap designed for Mariana, and as long as she walked into it, he would be half successful.

If she was more important than Mariana, then Leopoldo would naturally choose and trust her, thus doubting Mariana.

But, apparently, it turned out that Mariana was more important in his mind than she was, and he chose to believe in her.

Diana looked at the miserable Elisa and frowned, as if her heart had been stabbed hard.

This woman had followed Leopoldo for many years, and yet she had lost to a certain Mariana.

Diana felt as if she saw her future days and her heart filled with anger.

-Since there are no questions, then let's continue with the next demonstration.

Obviously, Leopoldo had become the leader of this meeting.

After that, Elisa did not say another word.

The demonstration went smoothly and when it was over, the crowd left their seats and Mariana watched them with a smile on her face as she watched them leave. However, the audience was not as enthusiastic and excited as before and was somewhat listless.

After all, they still needed time to adjust to such a big event.

One by one, the meeting attendees left through the door and, after a while, only Mariana, Elisa, Leopoldo and Diana remained in the conference room. Mariana looked at Diana, who was already sitting next to Leopoldo, with a slightly strange feeling in her heart.

-Leo, let's have dinner later, shall we? I recently found a very good restaurant.

Nodding slightly, Leopoldo looked at Diana who was putting on his clothes and spoke in a warm voice: -Good.

Leopoldo paused and said:

-Nothing else is going on here, go out for a while and wait for me outside, I have something to tell you both. Diana raised her head, looked at Leopoldo and spoke in a soft voice:

-If you still have work to do, I can keep you company next door.

Saying this, Diana walked to the side and sat down, raising her head and winking at Leopoldo.

Leopold's eyes were cold as he looked at the two people in front of him, with a bit of anger in his heart.

Before I could say anything, Mariana had already spoken impatiently.

-Mr. Durán, do you have any more orders? I still have some work to do, if there is nothing else, I will leave first.

Just as she turned around, she was called to stop.

-Stay.

He just had to stop, but did not turn back.

-Is there anything else, Mr. Durán?

There was no hint of emotion in the clear, cold words.

With a last cold glance at the woman, Leopoldo looked at Elisa and frowned.

-Elisa, what's happening today?

Earlier, in the small studio, when Mariana was lying on her desk sleeping, Leopoldo had already looked at these design sketches of hers, and naturally found the hidden initials.

At that time, Mariana's work was only a preliminary design, not so specific, so Leopoldo did not believe Elisa's words from the beginning.

Elisa bowed her head and hesitated for a long time, without speaking.

-I'm very relieved that you've handled the company's affairs all these years. But I never thought you would do something like this.

Leopold's words were tinged with a sigh and a cold sense of strangeness, completely different from the old days when they both knew each other.

Elisa's body trembled strongly and she felt cold all over her body. She raised her head and looked at Leopoldo from afar, opening her mouth slightly, but nothing came out.

I didn't want to get to this point with Leopoldo, but that was the truth.

The woman in front of him remained silent, as if by default she was carrying everything on her shoulders.

Leopoldo's eyebrows gradually softened, while Elisa's eyes were already reduced to their last icy hue.

-Since that's the case, then you won't be able to fill the position of design director at Elamorad, so you should resign.

Letting Elisa resign of her own free will should be one of the last feelings Leopoldo leaves her.

-Thank you.

The words were very dry, Elisa did not argue shrewdly from the beginning to the end, at a time like this, she did not want to deceive Leopoldo, the man she had fallen deeply in love with from the beginning and still loved all these years.

That was how the winner and loser always ended up.

Elisa turned her head to look at Diana, who was sitting in a corner, and said nothing, but looked at Mariana.

I don't remember when it was, she was also that young and energetic. But, for that man's sake, she had still forcibly transformed herself into the appearance before him, the one he himself hardly recognized. Elisa shook her head mockingly and let out a light laugh, what was that for?
