Chapter 358: A Visit

All the details are designed around Mariana and could not be changed.

It's a bit forward of Noe to be so infatuated with his own person.

-I have to warn you that you had better not touch my background. Otherwise, I will make you and your company disappear from this market," Leopoldo's eyes were serious as he stated. Noe, never cross the line.

Ding Dong!

Just as Noe was speechless, his cell phone suddenly rang. He picked up the phone and looked at it, and discovered that the person sending the message was Mariana. Leopoldo was in no mood to be entertained and was about to get up and leave.

-Wait a moment.

As soon as he got up, Leopoldo was stopped by Noe.

Leopoldo gasped and looked indifferently at the other man.

-Miss Ortiz has already signed a contract with me, so I'm sorry, Mr. Durán," Noe looked at him and said seriously.

Once the contract has been signed and comes into effect, she has the right not to sell it.

-What? -Leopoldo looked incredulous and had a hard look on his face.

What about Mariana's signature?

Although Noe had made a thousand calculations, he would never have thought that Leopoldo would want to forcibly buy the project out of his own hands. This man's heart is truly thin, cold and unreasonable. Noe simply stood up and walked away with a slight shake of his head.

-How is it possible? -Leopoldo leaned back in his seat and guessed Mariana's thoughts about signing the contract.

He had said he didn't want her to take on this project, just because he wanted to avoid her having anything to do with Noe, but when it came down to it, what did he mean by that?

Leopold thought to himself and really couldn't understand.

After a moment's consideration, he was ready to go home.

Noe saw Leopoldo's attitude and, fearing that the other party would make things difficult for Mariana, gave him a greeting in advance.

-Goddess, Mr. Durán already knows that you have signed with me, so if you need help do not hesitate to contact me.

After Noe typed a line on his phone, he sent it directly to Mariana.

After half an hour, Leopoldo reappeared.

He handed the car keys directly to the housekeeper, then walked in the direction of the guest room. At this point, he just wanted to see Mariana quickly and have her tell him the reason herself. At that moment, Mariana was still napping, not knowing how things were progressing.

-Mariana -Leopoldo pushed the door as soon as he could and coldly shouted her name.

Mariana was groggy from sleep and looked at him without knowing the truth.

-Hmm?

It seemed she had gone to bed a little while ago and Leopoldo had returned.

She thought he had gone to the office, why had he come back so soon?

Seeing the woman's pleasant appearance, Leopoldo became a little exasperated and closed the door tightly. He wanted Mariana to explain what was going on.

-Don't you ever have to worry about what people think of you when you do something? -Leopoldo looked at her with indignation.

Signing a contract with Noe was not a decision Mariana should have made.

-What are you talking about?

Mariana just thought the man was here to go crazy and was speechless.

Leopoldo grimaced and said with real disappointment:

-I have unilaterally broken my contract with you for your own good, don't you understand? -He could not contain himself and spat his heart out.

For your own good? Mariana felt amused.

Leopoldo always thought only of himself, how could he think of others? He was domineering, but only to keep her by his side. Mariana understood all this, but resisted in her heart.

She took a breath and tried to calm Leopoldo's anger.

-I know you do everything for me.

-Why did you sign with him?

Leopoldo wanted an answer now, to know exactly why Mariana had done that.

Mariana hesitated for a moment before answering.

-You've terminated my contract, and I need to have a job.

Her intention was simple.

-But I'm also working to get you projects," Leopoldo calmed his anger and said patiently.

At times like this, arguing won't solve the problem.

-You can tell me all you want, but you've already terminated your contract with me," Mariana said in a delicate and aggrieved manner.

She had no advantage in terminating the contract.

-I have already told you the reason for the termination of the contract," Leopoldo looked at Mariana's face, although he had a lot of anger inside him. In a split second, it all dissipated and disappeared. His first priority was to stabilize Mariana.

-Mariana, why do you always go against me?

Leopoldo could not finish his sentence, looking away with a slight disappointment in his heart.

To put himself in Mariana's place, he went out of his way to call Noe and offered her a high price to buy the project from him. But before he offered her the price, the contract was signed by Mariana.

What is this? Durán is furious inside.

Mariana was his, she could only stand by his side. Noe was just an unimpressive designer.

-I swear, I just want to work well.

Vaguely, Mariana could feel Leopoldo's loss. When she had entered a moment ago, she had done so with a body full of anger.

So far, he hadn't said a single heavy word either.

This had moved Mariana.

-You should trust me, I can give you whatever you want," Leopoldo looked at Mariana and said word for word. All he wanted was for her to stay by his side.

Working with other men was simply not possible.

-Señor Durán.

Just as Leopoldo's emotions were in place, the butler knocked on the door and started shouting.

Leopoldo hesitated for a moment before saying:

-What is it?

-We have guests," the butler said politely.

What guests were visiting him at this time of day?

Xavier stood on the step down and looked around, carefully examining the construction and decoration of the room. While Leopold was not a man short on money, his taste was not necessarily good either. -What brings you here?

Leopold casually descended the stairs.

For sure, Xavier was here to make some kind of mess.

-So Mr. Durán is home, huh? -Xavier looked at Leopoldo and spoke in a somber voice.

Leopoldo looked the other party up and down and said coldly:

-Say what you have to say.

Leopoldo was not a man who likes to talk nonsense.

-I have come to look for Mariana," Xavier looked at Leopoldo, his face full of happiness. Like the tone of someone looking for a mutual friend, he didn't think there was anything wrong with his words either. Leopoldo's eyes fell on Xavier and he asked him with contempt:

-Do you know what you are talking about?

-Is Mariana here? -Xavier looked across innocently.

From the looks of him, there was not the slightest hint of scrupulosity. So angry was he, that in the next second, Leopoldo stepped forward and punched Xavier hard.

-Where did you come from? Go away," Leopoldo glared angrily at Xavier.
