Please behave My Lord

Chapter 75: Finding a Rich Man as a Husband at the Party

-Miss, you make me feel very disappointed. I asked you to dance, how dare you refuse me? -said the man, extending his hand over Mariana's slim and narrow shoulders, trying to take her in his arms.

Before Mariana angrily rebuked, she heard a sharp female voice so penetrating that Mariana couldn't help but furrow her eyebrows.

-Bitch! How dare you seduce my boyfriend?

Suddenly, the angry woman poured all the red wine in her glass over Mariana, and Mariana could almost smell a strong red wine odor.

-You shameless bitch!

For a moment, Mariana could hear nothing but sarcastic curses.

The people around did not expect such a scene to happen at the party, so everyone stopped talking and their eyes fell on the three of them in different ways.

Mariana gently caressed the red dress on her body, with a trace of sorrow in her eyes. In the eyes of a designer, the destruction of a dress was probably the most unacceptable thing.

Mariana looked at the crazy woman next to her, and said to her in a cold voice:

-Miss, I don't know what you are talking about, rather you threw a glass of wine at me without understanding anything. Such rude and discourteous behavior should not be allowed on such a formal occasion. After speaking, Mariana quickly lifted a glass of wine from beside her and poured it violently over the woman's exquisitely made-up face. The action was so fast that it could not be dodged in time. -Ah!" the woman could only let out a scream.

Mariana placed the glass on the long table in front of her and laughed sarcastically, as if the swift and merciless action had not come from her.

Then, the furious woman pointed her finger at Mariana, and then instantly landed on Alejandro, her fingers trembling with anger.

At that moment, Alejandro stood up and approached the woman, his face full of apologies, and he endeavored to speak:

-Honey, you must believe me, it was this woman who seduced me!

In a nutshell, the man brushed off everything that had happened before, and even put all the blame on Mariana.

Mariana scoffed in her heart. "This ugly face is really disgusting."

-I don't expect this pretty young girl to do this kind of thing. It seems she wants to come to this party to find a rich man for a husband.

-What's this about finding a rich husband? -She's really trying to be a third for someone else! I tend to hate bitches.

-Yes, this society is all about money nowadays. Young girls think about getting something for nothing and taking shortcuts just to be a little pretty.

Several unkind whispers kept reaching Mariana's ears, making her heart grow even colder.

-What else do you have to say now? What a shameless thing to say, it's a banquet of Mrs. Perez!

The woman looked at Mariana with hatred in her eyes and anger.

-If you don't apologize today, I'll teach you a lesson and let you know that bitches can't do anything! I think by then, even if Mrs. Perez finds out, I'm sure she won't say anything, after all, I'm not the one who did such nasty things at her party!

With that, the woman took a step forward, her tone was cold, and her eyes flashed with a look of malice and vileness.

However, amidst murmurs, a person entered from outside the circle of people and quickly approached Mariana with a respectful attitude. He said to Mariana in a clear voice:

-Madam, why are you here? Mrs. Perez is looking for you!

The crowd stared at the man with surprised eyes and then turned their eyes to Mariana with a questioning look.

Mariana, with her eyebrows slightly furrowed, looked at the person in front of her. She did not know this person.

-Madam, it was the gentleman who asked me to come and get you, there was too much noise around here, so I came straight over, I didn't expect you to actually be here. Mariana was surprised and could not help but look away, searching for a few moments before seeing Leopoldo.

Only then did Mariana realize, probably all the drama of now had fallen in her eyes.

Next to Leopoldo, there was Andrea, who was also looking at Mariana at that moment, with a fake smile.

Andrea didn't expect that, just now, Leopoldo had found a security guard at the party and asked him to go get Andrea. "How is it possible that you are looking for Mrs. Perez to her? Mrs. Perez doesn't even know that someone like her exists!" Andrea felt increasingly uneasy, such a perception had gone beyond his control. Hatred surged in his heart.

Mariana avoided that angry look and nodded softly to the guard:

-Since Mrs. Perez is looking for me, then please lead the way.

Not a single extra glance from Mariana was directed at Alejandro and the woman next to him.

The crowd spontaneously gave way to Mariana, and the scene, which was still very chaotic, was now silent, with an eerie hush all around, all resting involuntarily on Mariana. Following the security guard into an unoccupied hallway, Mariana stopped and spoke lightly:

-Thank you for bailing me out, now you can go.

The guard looked at Mariana, who had a nondescript face and was not the least bit angry or embarrassed by the dejected situation in which she found herself. For a moment, some hints of gratitude arose in her heart.

-Mrs. Durán asked me to help you, but Mrs. Perez also wants to see you.

After hearing these words, Mariana was a little surprised and could not help but ask again:

-Mrs. Perez wants to see me?

-Yes, you are Mr. Durán's wife, Mrs. Pérez definitely wants to meet you. She is waiting for you in the room now, please follow me.

After saying this, he continued to lead the way.

Mariana stood silently in the same spot for a moment and followed him again. "Couldn't it be that Leopoldo brought Andrea here to introduce her to Mrs. Perez?"

Arriving at a room and stopping, the security guard let Mariana enter alone and turned to leave.

After some hesitation, Mariana entered.

Mariana saw a woman in a thin dark purple dress, her legs lazily crossed, her slender fingers holding a tall glass, her elbows lightly resting on her knees, lightly shaking her soft wrist, and the burgundy liquid swaying uncontrollably. The makeup on her face is extremely delicate and she only looked to be in her early thirties.

-Mariana?
