Chapter 146: Reminiscences

-I'm fine, Leo, you don't need to treat the people from the wardrobe team like that, they are only fighting for Mariana. The words had deep meaning.

Diana smiled, showing some reminiscence in her eyes as she looked at her now bandaged hand:

-Do you still remember the past days? At that time, I'll just scrape my palm and you nervously approached.

Hearing these words, Leopold also felt a sense of reminiscence, the coldness instantly turning to tenderness as he looked at Diana and nodded his head. -If only we could go back to the old days.

Diana looked at Leopoldo, his words full of deep meaning. She smiled, but not really felt joy.

Just now, after Mariana was injured, the scene in which Leopoldo immediately left her and ran to her side wounded her deeply and made her hold a grudge. These feelings of resentment and violence almost choked her.

I would not allow Leopoldo to belong to anyone else.

Lately, however, he felt increasingly helpless. He always had the feeling that she was using the past to tie him down, to keep him from leaving her.

Leopoldo's absent-mindedness would almost overwhelm her, even drive her crazy!

***

After resigning, Mariana returned to the locker room, greeted the wardrobe team and consoled Ana, who was crying a lot.

Ana cried and said she wanted to say goodbye for her, but he refused.

She had only one thing on her mind now, and that was to protect the baby she was carrying in her womb.

When she returned home, Mariana put away the work material she had brought with her in her small study and called her nanny in a good mood, ready to go food shopping together.

Now that she was pregnant, she had to be strict with her diet and nutrition. She could do whatever she wanted, but not the baby in her belly.

The nanny naturally understood the feelings of a mother and so was very attentive, buying many herbs to protect her baby according to her experience and preparing them in soup for Mariana to take together. In the evening, Leopoldo returned.

Arriving in the living room, he smelled a strong odor of herbs, bitter and pungent.

When Leopoldo entered, he saw Mariana, who was sitting quietly at the living room table, taking small sips of her soup.

The warm light above her gave her a soft glow and revealed a peaceful expression, somewhat different from her usual coldness.

Leopoldo approached her warily.

Icy words rang over Mariana's head, which under the warm light, however, as if it became soft.

-What are you eating?

Mariana was surprised, her hands felt weak, the spoon collided with the bowl.

Mariana looked up and saw the man's deep-set eyes, as well as his tightly furrowed eyebrows,

-It is only a tonic soup to strengthen the body, it is nothing.

Mariana was a bit nervous, so her words seemed a bit forced, and Leopoldo's face instantly darkened.

The next moment, Mariana only felt a tall shadow surrounding her, and she was enveloped in an embrace that smelled faintly of tobacco.

Leopoldo picked up the spoon, spooned a spoonful into the bowl and lifted it to his mouth, but he didn't notice any difference, nor did he feel the hint of bitterness in the air.

When the nanny heard the noise, she rushed out of the kitchen and was surprised to see what Leopoldo had done.

By this time, however, the man had already stood up, and the faint smell of tobacco was gradually covered by the bitterness of herbs, and then it all disappeared.

Mariana was a little dazed, she just felt her heart beating violently at that moment, unable to calm down for a long time.

-Since it is a tonic soup to strengthen the body, give me a bowl as well.

Leopoldo turned around and looked at the nanny. After finishing coolly, he sat down across from Mariana.

The fluctuation in Mariana's heart had not yet ceased and she clutched the soup spoon in her hand with something unbearable.

What he was drinking was a soup made by adding herbs that were good for the baby, not the strengthening soup he had just said.

Hearing this, the nanny hesitated a bit and looked with some trepidation at Leopoldo before looking at Mariana.

Naturally, she did not want Leopoldo to replace out she was pregnant.

Mariana unconsciously pressed her hand on her belly and nodded to the nanny.

Nothing more was said between the two, which made for a silence and peace that had long been missing in the room.

The nanny placed the bowl of soup in front of Leopold and paused for a moment, looking at the two who were unusually quiet today, a slight smile appeared on her face and she nodded secretly. Silence stretched between the two of them, Mariana looked at Leopoldo, then lowered her head and continued drinking the soup.

The heart that had just been beating violently had regained calm.

However, the corner of his mouth turned with a slight bitter meaning.

-Why aren't you at the hospital with Miss Solis?

As Mariana said these words, she felt a bit of regret. The tone of the words was a bit jealous, but what was her identity now?

-I just...

-It's all right, she's back.

The cold, hard words fell hard on Mariana's ears, making her heart shudder.

Mariana looked at Leopoldo in a daze, with a sense that something was quietly and slowly changing.

Mariana shook her head, the events on the day's set were still on her mind. Unless she wasn't feeling tough enough to have so many delusions of grandeur.

Thinking about this, Mariana quickly finished her soup, stood up and spoke indifferently:

-I'm done, I'll go up first.

Then, without mercy, he turned and left with quick steps.

The man looked at Mariana's slender figure slowly walking up the stairs.

Leopoldo felt a tremor in his heart.

In the following days, Mariana stayed in the villa, without going anywhere or doing anything.

Xavier had called once, but Mariana did not answer.

That day, Mariana felt that the weather was nice, so she sat in the garden in the sun, with the parenting books she had asked the nanny to buy a few days ago.

In fact, he did not have a very good childhood, the past with his parents was not good, so he did not want his son to be like that in the future.

He was reading intently when a sudden noise was heard outside, he looked up and saw a yellow Ferrari parked in front of the door.

A woman stepped out of the car, who wore black-rimmed sunglasses that covered most of her face, revealing only a small, delicate chin, radiant, but with a touch of pomp and circumstance.
