Chapter 112: Disappearing overnight
-I cannot fully show the beauty of the work, and the work cannot complement me, it will only have the
opposite effect.
Her eyebrows were slightly furrowed, and Mariana understood Diana's meaning a little.
And it really was.
-Mariana, can you do me a favor? Susana as a friend gave me a dress she designed, it is unique in the
world and it has not been published yet, can you help me to modify it on this basis?
Mariana was in a bad mood, she did not respond immediately for a while.
-I really like Susana's design, it is my wish to wear a dress designed by Susana, Mariana, can you help
me to make it?
When she looked up, she met a pair of anxious eyes, and Diana looked at Mariana expectantly, her
body slightly driven by nervousness.
The distance between them was shrinking.
With a lot of thoughts in her mind, Mariana opened her mouth and said softly:
-Miss, each design is a treasure of the designer, something that cannot be violated.
With a steady gaze, and with some embarrassment and reluctance, Mariana spoke with difficulty,
-If I were to modify Miss Susanna's design, it would not only be disrespectful to me, but also to Miss
Susanna!
She was also a designer, and thinking about this kind of thing happening to her, she felt that Diana's
suggestion was not appropriate.
And Susana was his friend, all the more reason not to do it!
-Mariana, you don't have to worry about Susana's side, she knows my obsession, so this piece that
was given to me she can handle at will.
There was a slight air of condescension in the words.
Diana had attended many big shows abroad, so naturally she knew some upper-class people, but she
had not thought that Susanna's friendship with her would have reached this level.
Even over and above the design.
However, the situation in front of him was even more difficult.
-Mariana, you just need to recover this dress and change it to the proportions of my body, and it can
highlight the characteristics of my temperament. This is much simpler than redesigning a dress.
Mariana stared at Diana for a long time before speaking,
-Miss Diana, I don't think this is good, respect is mutual.
-Even if the designer Susana doesn't mind, I too, as a designer, don't want to follow the designs of
others, my work is my work, it belongs only to me.
The tone of his voice was a bit harsh, and it fell hard on Diana's ears, causing the smile on her face to
fade a bit.
The light in her eyes, with a slight feeling of oppression, went straight to Mariana.
-Mariana, what do you mean? You must know that the director asked you to discuss with me the design
of the dress. I just made a small request, which is convenient for me and also for you, why don't you
agree, could it be that such a trivial matter also requires you to inform the director and let the director
solve it, then would you agree?
The words had a strong, oppressive meaning, and even brought out the director.
With a secret sigh, Mariana felt helpless.
Mariana knew the importance the director attached to bringing Diana to the Sky Film Festival this time. Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
After closing her eyes, Mariana finally nodded and agreed,
-Then I'll give it a try.
As soon as these words were said, Diana's face instantly broke into a smile.
-Then I will have my assistant send you the dress later, please.
The light in her eyes intensified as a hint of something strange flashed through Mariana's heart.
-No problem.
After leaving Diana's living room, Mariana looked a little scared.
Diana and Andrea were cousins, and even after Diana left Leopoldo and went abroad, Leopoldo was
still able to take care of Andrea thanks to Diana.
"It seems that the relationship between Diana and Andrea had a good relationship should be good. In
that case, does Andrea ever mention me after her return?"
For some reason, during this period of time, Mariana always felt strange when she was with Diana, as
if the person in front of her was not like that.
But if I wanted to dig deeper, I couldn't find anything else.
While walking unconsciously, Mariana soon returned to the original scene, where Ana was still waiting
for her.
At that moment, seeing her, he rushed over and asked with concern,
-Mari, have you finished with your business?
Nodding softly, the corners of Mariana's mouth curved into a slight smile, but there was still some
concern in her eyes.
-Well, it's done.
Then, Ana suddenly looked at the people around her, approached Mariana's ear and lowered her
voice.
-Mari, guess who I just saw?
With some helplessness, Mariana looked at the mysterious Ana, knowing that she must have stumbled
upon some gossip again.
But seeing how interested she was, she still spoke,
-Who did you see?
-I tell you I met Rafael! The owner of that maverick bar.
Her eyes were stunned, and the bad memories of that night came back to her mind, Mariana couldn't
help but tremble and her mood was low.
Trying to suppress the irritation in her heart, Mariana pretended to look at Ana calmly and spoke as
calmly as possible,
-Where have you seen it?
-Right here! And just before you came back, he left the stage and went backstage.
After a pause, Ana guessed,
-I think he probably knows the people inside this press conference, he just waited here for a while, but I
saw he had a bad look on his face, so I didn't go up to greet him.
Something went through Mariana's mind very quickly, but she could not grasp it.
Who was Rafael waiting for?
The bar had disappeared overnight and Mariana had missed Rafael's news, but she didn't expect to
find him here.
Was it by chance?
Looking at Ana, who was still puzzled, Mariana was surprised and hurried to speak:
-Anita, the owner of that bar and we are definitely not from the same world, so the next time we meet,
we should pretend we don't know each other.
After a pause, he said again,
-After all, if you think a newly opened bar has disappeared overnight, it must have pissed off some
powerful people we can't afford to offend.
Hearing this, Ana nodded approvingly,
-If you can quietly make a bar disappear overnight on a downtown bar street, I think you have to be one
like Señor Durán!
With a start, Mariana turned her eyes to Ana, her pupils crinkling in disbelief.
However, Ana did not notice Mariana's disorder and sighed as if she was still sighing.
-It's a pity that you only know this great man, Mr. Durán! What a pity!
Only when he heard these words did Mariana feel relieved.
At that moment, he thought Ana knew.
Such a reaction made the depression I had just received from Diana dissipate greatly.
