    Chapter 5: Leopoldo came to pick her up


    -All right, Miss Solis, I''ll re-cut the tail at the back of the dress to fit your shoes, what do you think?


    -Please," Andrea nodded, "you''re a professional designer, the idea you came up with is great. It''s just


    that I have one more thing I hope you can help with.


    Her cheeks reddened slightly and her beautiful eyes contained a delicate look,


    -I have an appointmentter, can I trouble you to help me choose another dress?


    This was out of her job. Mariana was a little disgruntled in her heart, but still nodded her head and


    responded:


    -Of course.


    Just after he said the words, he hadn''t even left the clothes in his hands when the door to the study


    was pushed open.


    Several bodyguards in ck suits were the first to enter and, after a cautious nce around, they


    consciously positioned themselves on either side.


    -Mr. Durán.


    The man in the expensive suit stepped forward, his figure was steely, his eyebrows had an


    overwhelming coldness and his aura was extremely strong.


    -Mr. Durán.


    Seeing this man approaching, Andrea''s face immediately revealed a smile of joy, taking the hem and

    walking quickly,pletely ignoring Mariana who was still standing in front of her.


    Mr. Durán? What Mr. Durán?


    Mariana turned around in astonishment, saw the man from afar and was instantly shocked.


    This man who had suddenly appeared was her nominal husband, Leopoldo.


    The man''s cold gaze shifted slightly before he saw the silhouette standing next to him, eyes slightly


    narrowed.


    But he soon averted his eyes again and walked calmly towards Andrea, as if Mariana were a mere


    stranger to him.


    -Mr. Durán, did youe to pick me up on purpose?


    Andrea approached him, smiling delicately with her head tilted upward.


    -Yes.


    Leopold nodded indifferently, his dull gaze roaming over the fluffy pale blue evening gown on her body,


    and said:


    -How much more time do you need? I''ll wait for you.


    -Good.


    Andrea smiled. As soon as she turned around, she ordered again:


    -Miss Ortiz, please.


    -Of course, wait.


    Mariana repressed her emotions and went to the rack to make a selection, quickly choosing a long dark


    purple dress, shoes and essories, and handing them to him together.


    -Miss, what do you think?


    -Okay, thank you.


    Andrea reached out to grab them and headed for the locker room in high spirits.


    Mariana waited outside, arranging the clothes she tried on. During this time, she could clearly feel a


    very oppressive gaze behind her, making her feel very ufortable.


    But Mariana showed nothing, her face still had the same expression of concentration, only her


    fingertips, slightly trembling, revealed the emotions.


    The studio was silent for a while, even Ana, who had been whispering earlier, closed her mouth and


    helped her.


    After a while, the dressing room door opened again, and Andrea, wearing a long dress that fit her well,


    approached Leopoldo with a sweet smile:


    -Mr. Durán, I am ready.


    Saying this, she turned around again with pleasure and smiled at him:


    -Do I look good dressed like this?
