Please behave My Lord

Chapter 51: Strangers

Chapter 51: Strangers

The man in front of her was abnormal. Mariana was concerned, she approached him and reached out

her hand to touch the man's forehead and feel the temperature.

"He doesn't have a fever."

Then she sniffed him.

"There is also no smell of alcohol."

"So, what happened to him?"

-Mr. Durán, it's late and I still have work to do. If you have nothing to do...

The words were not finished.

When Mariana reacted, the man had already pressed her against the door. The pain in her back made

Mariana realize what was happening.

-Señor Durán? Why are you calling me Señor Durán now? You don't call me that in bed.

His words were full of contempt and mockery. Mariana's heart trembled slightly. She didn't know what

Leopoldo wanted to do at this hour,

-Although we have married by contract, we have done what a married couple should do. So, Mr. Durán,

what do you want?

However, the man in front of him frowned, and his words were full of mockery and at the same time

extremely childish.

Leopoldo cared deeply about this deal.

But she had always called Leopoldo that before, except at the family banquet, she called him Leo, the

rest of the time she always called him Señor Durán.

Mariana stiffened her body, standing up with difficulty between the man's strong arms, she could feel

the man's breath. The breath exhaled by the man made her face turn red and so she was very

attractive now.

Being so close to the man, Mariana's heartbeat quickened, and the strong pounding of her heart made

Mariana feel as if she were naked in front of Leopoldo at that moment. The thought made Mariana

slightly embarrassed.

In the next instant, Mariana's warm cheek felt a soft touch. The man suddenly came closer and closed

his eyes. At this moment, the man was no longer as cold as before, and one could not help but want to

be close to him.

As if to punish her for her infidelity, Leopoldo bit Mariana lightly.

Mariana's jaw dropped and her heart pounded. She pushed away Leopoldo who was pressing on her

with a fierce push. Then she raised her hand to cover her face and looked at Leopoldo in disbelief.

The man staggered slightly at Mariana's thrust and took half a step back. Then he stared at her.

-Mr. Durán, what are you doing?

The man slightly raised his thumb and wiped his lips so hard it was as if he wanted to erase the contact

with her.

Mariana's face paled instantly, until it looked slightly transparent in the dim light. She lowered her

hands, her pink face with the teeth marks more attractive.

Leopoldo looked at her with aversion, she noticed it, but she could do nothing that left that aversion

stabbed into her heart like a dagger.

-Nothing special.

His words were full of mockery, like the axe pressing down on a condemned prisoner.

She could not help crying, she felt sad. Mariana didn't know, what had she done to offend him, why did

he treat her like that?

-Even though we are contractually married, we are married now. I don't want to betray you.

Hearing these words, Mariana furrowed her eyebrows. This time, she did not choose to withdraw or

hold back as before.

She said with a cold expression, ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

-I don't know why you are saying this, but since I have signed the agreement, I will abide by it, and if I

violate the provisions of the agreement, you can make me pay for the breach of contract.

The cold words severed all relations between the two in an instant, leaving only an agreement between

them.

Leopoldo said cruel words:

-Pay for breach of contract? That's why money is what matters most to you.

Finally, the man gave Mariana a cold look and left.

Only when the footsteps disappeared completely did Mariana put her arms around herself and squatted

on the floor.

Suddenly she burst into tears.

That night, Mariana stayed up all night, sitting in front of her desk, drawing all night. Whether it was the

inspiration from the antique costume design exhibit or something else, her drawings came out

beautifully.

At dawn, light shone through the window, falling on Mariana's body. Her cheeks were white and her lips

were dry.

After a huge emotional upheaval and the rapid functioning of her brain all night, she now only felt dizzy.

After a brief pause, Mariana opened her eyes, and now the blood in her eyes had greatly faded. She

put the computer in the backpack, Mariana opened the door, washed briefly, changed her clothes. She

was about to leave when, unexpectedly, she ran into Leopoldo again.

She lowered her head and kept quiet, as if she did not see the person walking towards her.

As she stood there, the man passed by her without looking away. The slight breeze blowing in

Mariana's hair made her itch slightly, causing a slight tremor in her heart.

It looked like he didn't see her at all.

The two were like strangers.
