Chapter 434: Surveillance

-Señor Durán, the lady has arrived.

Leopoldo was sitting at the dining room table, his hands closed, as if he were thinking about something. Only when the butler spoke and informed him that Mariana had arrived did he react violently. He looked at Mariana and his expression changed.

-Are you already here? -Leopoldo stood up, ready to pull the stool.

Mariana reached the stool alone and her eyes looked hesitantly at Leopoldo. Her heart was optimized and she was more or less apprehensive when it came to facing Leopoldo.

-Order your food," Leopoldo gestured to the waiter, indicating that he could serve the menu.

Mariana looked carefully at the waiter and could not help but say:

-I can eat anything, you don't need to give me the menu.

To be honest, she wasn't very hungry.

Especially since she basically hadn't felt hungry before arriving at the restaurant.

-Is there anything in particular you want to eat?

A little worried, Leopoldo took the floor and asked.

Now Mariana was different from before, she needed to pay attention to everything she ate. Specifically, there were things to avoid and others to balance from a nutritional point of view. Therefore, Mariana could not eat everything.

-No," Mariana shook her head.

Her eyes rested on the man's body, as if she was considering something. With this look, Leopoldo knew immediately that Mariana had something to tell him.

Mariana entered and Alonso was not with her.

Leopoldo wondered if Mariana had left him.

-Mariana, where is Alonso?

Seeing that the other party said nothing, Leopoldo picked up the menu and took the initiative to ask.

Knowing that Leopoldo would ask Alonso, Mariana thought for a moment and spoke:

-I don't want him to follow me, if you have to watch me, can you change to someone else?

-Watching you? -Leopoldo looked at her and repeated the word.

In Mariana's eyes, had he sent people around her just to spy on her? Leopoldo felt amused and at the same time sad to see that Mariana did not understand his good intentions at all. Alonso following her everywhere had nothing to do with spying.

-Alonso is very capable and was sent by me to protect you," Leopoldo said, holding back the disappointment inside him.

Alonso's former occupation was something Mariana could not even think about. Only when such a person was by Mariana's side, Leopoldo could calm down completely.

-I don't need it," Mariana looked at the man and coldly refused.

She had offended no one and, therefore, did not need the protection of others.

Leopoldo's fears were simply unnecessary.

-It is not for you to say whether you need it or not.

Leopoldo's tone hardened instantly as he saw that his kindness was useless. He knew what Mariana had seen when she went to the hospital, but he didn't know what she had heard. She did not go to the fetal education classes and was complaining to him.

-Yes, what can't you do? -Mariana thought about what Rafael had said and looked at the man in front of her. For Leopoldo, there was nothing he dared not do. This man was quite cruel.

-What do you mean? -Leopoldo almost lost his appetite and coldly continued with the question.

He didn't understand what Mariana's words meant, so he opened his mouth to ask. Especially because this woman spoke as if she were insinuating something. -Isn't Rafael a living example? -Mariana looked at the man and said coldly.

She was already starting to get scared.

Nothing was impossible, and Leopoldo could hurt her.

-Mariana, do you know what you're talking about? -Leopoldo looked at her and couldn't help but ask. First it was not wanting Alonso to follow her, and now it was Rafael. Leopoldo did not understand how irritated Mariana had become.

-I know," Mariana looked at him and said coldly.

It wasn't that she was heated, but she felt a shiver down her back. She had never met someone as horrible as Leopoldo, a good person who could destroy someone who annoyed him. Mariana's mind was a whirlwind, not knowing what to choose.

It was as if I had jumped into a mud puddle and couldn't get up.

-Mariana, you must have some misunderstanding about me," Leopoldo looked at the woman and inexplicably explained. He didn't want Mariana to misunderstand him, especially now.

-I didn't misunderstand you," Mariana was cold and said indifferently.

In Leopoldo's eyes, this person was insignificant. So what if he is lost? This was only what Mariana saw, and she didn't know how much more she hadn't seen. Leopoldo's methods were unpredictable. -Mariana... -Leopoldo looked at her with a slight headache.

Meanwhile, Alonso hurried to arrive. He was relieved when he saw Mariana arrive on the opposite side of Leopoldo. At least if Mariana kept the appointment, there were no major problems. Leopoldo looked at Alonso coldly.

-Leopoldo, I want to live alone for a while," Mariana took a breath and suddenly made this request.

"Live alone? Why?"

Finding it strange, Leopoldo could not help but ask:

-For how long?

He wanted to know why Mariana wanted to live alone.

-I don't know.

Mariana sketched a somewhat awkward smile and looked at the man in front of her. She wasn't sure how long it would be. But now that she was with Leopoldo, she was very depressed. There was something uncomfortable about facing this man every day.

-No - Leopoldo didn't even think about it, he simply refused.

But Mariana had the courage to say such words, so she wouldn't care if Leopoldo disagreed with her. She looked at the man and said indifferently:

-I'm not going to argue with you.

No matter what Leopoldo did, she was not afraid.

-Mariana," Leopoldo looked at her and called her by name.

Mariana snorted and looked at the empty table.

-You eat by yourself, I want to go back first," she picked up her bag and wanted to leave this place as soon as possible.

When Leopoldo saw the other party's back splitting, he became furious.

What exactly did he see that made Mariana's attitude change so quickly?

Seeing Mariana leave, Alonso hurried to step forward, ready to follow the woman. Protecting Mariana was a job Leopoldo had given him, and Alonso would always fulfill it without hesitation.

As soon as he took a step forward, Mariana stopped in her tracks.

-I'll say it for the last time, don't let your people follow me.

Mariana had already expressed that she did not need Alonso's protection.

How was it possible that Leopoldo did not understand something so simple?

Seeing the woman say this, Alonso's eyes turned to Leopoldo. Leopoldo did not tell him to follow her, so Alonso did not take another step.

Mariana grabbed her purse and left the restaurant in a huff.

Only when she got into the car and saw that Alonso did not come out of the interior did Mariana let out a sigh of relief. It had to be said that, after all, if a person was alone, she didn't have to take anyone's feelings into account.
