Chapter 226: Misunderstanding
When Carmen who was standing next to him saw this situation, the smile on her face disappeared, and although she did not know what exactly was going on, she approached him and advised in a soft voice: - Mr. Durán, Miss Ortiz, is there some misunderstanding between you two?
Hearing Carmen's words, Mariana lowered her head, feeling very tired.
-Carmen, eat the fish soup, I'm tired and I want to go upstairs to rest.
As he said this, he forced a smile, but the smile disappeared in the next second.
Turning around, Mariana went up the stairs.
Looking at that slender back, Leopold could not help but pucker his lips slightly, the coldness in his eyes slowly disappeared and his eyes filled with sympathy again.
Turning his eyes, Leopold saw the fish soup still steaming on the dining room table, and the anger that had faded again welled up in his heart. He turned and walked out of the villa.
Carmen stood in the living room not knowing what to do, looked up and then at the closed door and sighed.
I didn't expect things to turn out this way.
Finally, Carmen walked over to the dining room table, picked up the pot of soup and returned it to the kitchen.
The next day, when Mariana arrived at the company, she heard the good news that the commercial they had shot had received a lot of attention, which was a good start. They then uploaded images of Diana and Xavier's shoot to the Internet, gaining even more popularity.
Taking advantage of this moment, the Elamorad Company and the Narciso Company began to sell Diana's new clothing collection, which obtained very good sales and even broke historical records. These good results were the result of a three-way collaboration and everyone was very satisfied.
Seeing the messages from her fans, Lidia said with joy: -Diana, you are an internationally renowned model, and after this cooperation with Elamorada Company and Narciso Company. Many brands are looking for you to sponsor them.
For Diana, not only had her popularity increased, but the fashion industry had also seen her value and she would become the new favorite.
Suddenly thinking of something, Lidia frowned, looked at Diana and asked: "What do you think this time? Last time, because of the collaboration with Xavier you have gained a lot of fans, do you want to continue to cooperate with him?
After all, the film had not yet been released. So, it didn't matter what they wanted to do. Xavier won't say anything about it about the movie, and you could even say that they could do whatever they wanted before it was released.
At these words, Diana shook her head, unconsciously rubbing the coffee cup in her hand.
-No, I don't want to cooperate with him anymore.
Hearing these words, Lidia felt surprised. She looked at Diana, feeling very confused.
-Why don't you want to cooperate with him and take advantage of this good opportunity? Do you scruple Xavier? You know that before the movie is released, he won't refuse our request.
There was an unreadable emotion in Diana's eyes. She stood up and said to Lidia: -I don't want to be a fake couple with Xavier anymore, and don't organize any other activity.
Since Leopoldo was concerned about the relationship between Mariana and Xavier, he would naturally also worry about her playing the false partner with other men.
Moreover, this time, when she returned from abroad, she did not want to be a star, but to recover her love affair with Leopoldo.
If he made Leopoldo angry over this matter, it would be a great loss.
When Lidia saw Diana's firm attitude, she knew that she really didn't want to, so she shut her mouth and stopped talking about it. However, Lidia's gaze towards Diana was full of doubt, thinking that Diana was hiding something and not telling her the truth.
Elamorad informed staff from all departments that a banquet would be held tomorrow to reward everyone for their hard work during this period of time and expected everyone to attend dressed in formal attire. Naturally, the banquet also invited the other two parties in this cooperation.
When Nuria heard this news, she was very happy. After all, everyone was very busy during this period of time because of the cooperation. Even so, strange things were still happening within the company. Putting another cup of coffee in front of Mariana, Nuria sat down on the sofa. After taking a sip of coffee, she asked: "What, you're not happy?
Mariana smiled, looked at Nuria and said in a soft voice: "How can it be? It's probably because I've been very busy during this period of time and I'm a little tired.
Hearing his words, Nuria nodded her head in great recognition.
-The company has also given us all a half-day vacation to praise us, how great!
Nodding her head, Mariana said, "Indeed.
However, at this moment, Mariana was thinking about Leopoldo, who had not returned home during this period of time, since the last fight, Leopoldo had not returned, so she had not seen him for quite some time.
At this instant, Mariana suddenly wanted to explain something to him, even though Diana had said many bad words about her to Leopoldo, Mariana still intended to explain.
"If I hadn't argued with him, if I had explained, would our relationship have been different?"
At that moment, Nuria's cell phone rang. After watching the news, she let out an exclamation.
Mariana came to her senses and looked at the woman next to her, frowned and asked: "Nuria, what's wrong?
As if she was thinking about something, Nuria immediately hung up her phone, waved her hand and said with a smile: -Nothing, it's just some jokes that colleagues in the company make.
