Chapter 465: Drawing The Line

Chapter 465: Drawing the Line

Because of his young age, Daniel was not at all concerned about his image when he ate. He ate for the sake of eating, and many times, Mariana's task was to observe her son's ugly face and occasionally took pictures.

When her son was old enough, she could threaten him with those pictures.

Daniel looked at the bottom of the pot and couldn't help but say:

-Mom, this soup is delicious, too, but....

Seeing her son's appearance, Mariana was a little curious and asked:

-What's wrong?

Thinking that Daniel would make some precious suggestion, Mariana's attention was all on her son.

After looking at her son for a moment, Daniel spoke again:

-But, it's too cheap, isn't it?

It was much cheaper than abroad.

"How was the owner going to make money if you ate at such a low price? Why wouldn't the boss open such a restaurant abroad?"

Daniel picked up the list and looked at it over and over as he complained to Mariana.

Mariana smiled and couldn't help but sigh.

-It was true that you were still a child.

The world of a child was very simple.

-Little Daniel, have you had enough to eat? -Mariana didn't answer her son's question and spoke directly to ask.

They had had a long flight and when they were full, it would be time to go home and rest. Mariana looked at her son and thought it was funny. Little Daniel got off the stool by himself, moving quickly. -I ate enough," he said innocently.

It was good to eat and go home when you were full.

Mariana had the company get her a car and, as soon as the two left the house, they headed straight for their residence. Back home, Mariana bought a villa, so that her ability was not too different from Leopold's.

Mariana could easily deduce what Leopoldo would do next.

That man would surely try to get her son's attention.

-Mom, I'm sleepy.

Daniel looked at the thoughtful woman looking out the window, but he was very sleepy and just wanted to get a good night's sleep. As for what was right and what was wrong, that was not something for a child to think about.

Mariana looked at her son and said softly:

-Sleep for a while if you're sleepy.

Her heart clenched as she hugged her son. She could not give Leopoldo the son she had spent so much time raising. If she gave him to him, Mariana would have nothing left.

The location of the villa was very good, it was not in the suburbs, but for that reason, it also cost Mariana quite a bit of savings.

-President, we are here," the driver reminded Mariana to get out of the car. The woman seemed a bit lost in thought.

Mariana hesitated for a moment, but immediately returned her attention.

-Good.

She glanced at the driver before hugging her son and preparing to get out of the car.

Her eyes were kind as she pulled her son out. She had just taken a step forward when she realized that there was a man at her front door. That man was none other than Leopoldo. She knew deep in her heart that Leopoldo would not leave her alone.

-Why are you here? -Mariana asked him as she unconsciously took a step back.

She did not want to see the man in front of her.

Leopoldo's gaze fell on her and asked with some concern:

-Where did you go with your son? Why did you come back so late?

He missed her very much, and that was the kind of thought Mariana could not imagine.

All the time she had been away, Leopoldo had missed her.

-It's none of your business," Mariana said with disgust and eyes full of dissatisfaction.

She did not marry Leopoldo and had been separated from the man for a long time. Even if she were married now, it would have nothing to do with Leopoldo. But this man actually asked her where she had taken her son.

She had no relationship with Leopoldo, and Mariana didn't want him to know.

Leopoldo's eyes fell on the woman and he spoke suddenly.

-At least let me see the son you have been carrying away for so many years.

The son had belonged to Mariana for a long time, but he had also belonged to Leopoldo for some time.

-Leopoldo, I'm going to say this for the last time, the son is mine and has nothing to do with you.

Whatever Leopoldo said, Mariana would not give him her son.

It seemed ridiculous to Leopoldo and he was right in his assumption.

-The son is not only yours, he is also mine," Leopoldo looked at the woman in front of him and said seriously. In Mariana's mind, it was as if Daniel was hers alone.

But in fact, it was not like that.

-Leopoldo, what exactly do you want?

Mariana had always known that Leopoldo's people followed her all the time.

But at that moment, Mariana hadn't expected that Leopoldo would be able to replace her so quickly. This kind of feeling was not pleasant. All her anxiety and anguish were vented at that moment.

-You have to tell Daniel that I am his father.

Leopoldo looked at Daniel, and noticed that his eyebrows were similar to his own as a child.

The fact that his son looked like him as a child was strong evidence. Even if he gave Mariana as many chances as he could, there was no reason to say that Daniel was not his own son. He loved his son, and he wanted him to change his last name to Durán.

As for Mariana, he also had the same desire.

-I said that with your condition, you can have many children," Mariana looked at him and said fiercely.

With Leopoldo's condition, she could have many children, and it was not necessary to have Daniel. He was hers and could not be taken away by Leopoldo.

-Mariana, do you have to be like this?

Leopoldo's expression suddenly changed and he looked at the woman coldly.

"Why did Mariana have to bring things to this point, did she have to do this?"

-Leopoldo, my words are clear. No matter what you want to do to take my son, I will not consent. As for the tricks you have up your sleeve, I'll take them all -Mariana hugged the boy and opened the door directly to enter the house.

She didn't want to tell Leopoldo nonsense and was very firm.

It was only after the "bang" of the door closing that Leopoldo realized everything. He let out a bitter laugh and looked towards the closed door with a cold expression.

-Mariana, you have really changed.

She changed drastically in a way he was not familiar with.

But no matter what he told her, Leopoldo would not give up so easily. He would make Mariana pay for what she said and he would not give up on Daniel no matter what she said.

Mariana leaned against the door with her son in her arms and an inexplicable fear came over her in the darkness.

-Mom... -Daniel rubbed himself between Mariana's arms, pretending to be dependent.

Mariana hugged the child and stroked his head, trying to comfort him. The child was still small, so how could Mariana feel at ease if she just handed him over to Leopoldo? Besides, if she and Leopoldo no longer had a future together, would Daniel feel harassed by other women in the future?
