Chapter 231: A Well-Matched Couple


    Chapter 231: A Well-matched Couple


    Mariana Ortiz picked up her suit jacket and returned to the center of the party. The soft piano


    apaniment rang in her ears, elegant and smooth.


    However, when she looked up, she only saw that everyone was gathered in a circle and that in the


    center there was arge free field, which was the dance floor. Mariana vaguely remembered that


    before the group dance began, there would be a solo dance by two people.


    This should be what was happening now.


    However, something suddenly shed through her mind, making her feel a little uneasy, but the


    thoughts were too fast for her to grasp, leaving some vague emotions affecting her.


    Her feet moved forward unconsciously, and Mariana finally positioned herself outside the center,


    looking at the two people inside along with the crowd.


    The man wore only a thin white shirt, but that failed to camouge his nobility and arrogance. When his


    cold eyes looked at the woman in his arms, a slight softness emerged, and this contrast showed the


    intimacy between them.


    And the woman dancing with him, held the man''srge palm with her beautiful slender hands, and her


    exquisite body was most striking against the white dress.


    The two gyrated and danced in the middle of the dance floor. A thin bright light was shining on them


    and the surroundings seemed a bit dim, as if they were the only ones on the dance floor. They were the


    protagonists of the scene, while the others were just small supporting characters.


    Feeling a little ufortable, Mariana couldn''t help but squeeze the hand holding the suit jacket and


    fiddle with both hands under the cover, wrinkling the clothes.


    However, Mariana seemed oblivious to all this, and just stared directly at Leopoldo Durán and Diana


    Solís on the scene, unable to look away.


    Finally, when the song ended, the two stopped and thanked the audience.


    The woman looked at Leopoldo and smiled, full of dependence, while Leopoldo, naturally, also looked


    at Diana with a soft look.


    What a perfect match.


    Suddenly, a warm round of apuse resounded throughout the ce.


    -Did you see the way Senor Duran looked at Diana just now? It''s like looking at the woman you love!


    How sweet! If I could be seen like that, I''d like to swoon!


    -I imagine the two of you are already together? Otherwise, how can it be so sweet and tacit? And


    they''re dancing together as if no one is watching in a public ce like this.


    -Yes, Mr. Duran would never do something like this before, but once Diana returned to China, how


    many things did Mr. Duran do that he had not done before? This is love, isn''t it?


    ***


    Amidst the loud apuse there was also constant chatter like this, Mariana was standing behind the


    crowd, hidden in the darkness, watching the two people smiling at each other in the arena. Her gaze


    was trembling and a cracking sound came from her heart. It was as if something had broken sadly


    among so muchughter, and the pieces were scattered on the ground, very deste.


    At that moment, Ana Lopez''s surprised voice suddenly reached his ears,


    -Mari, this dress you''re wearing is so pretty! And it feels super right for you, like it was made to fit you!


    The corners of her mouth barely curved into a smile as Mariana looked at Ana gathered around her in


    amazement and spoke bitterly.


    -How can this be?


    At that moment, Diana, who was standing in the middle of the crowd and surrounded by people, also


    saw the red figure, and the smile on her face stopped for a moment, before returning to normal.


    But the ferocity in her eyes could not be hidden, buried deep in her heart. Diana looked calmly at


    Leopoldo, who was standing beside her, pursed her lips and finally said nothing.


    That red dress was one of the first creations of Leopoldo''s mother. She had wished for it at the time


    and had secretly mentioned it several times, but Leopold had not given it to her in the end.


    What was the situation now?


    There was a slight uneasiness in her heart, with a different meaning, Diana did her best to suppress

    theplicated thoughts in her mind, but her cheeks still had a smile on them. Such a contrast caused


    her face to distort slightly.


    The people who had gathered around Diana to pay herpliments were startled to see her like this,


    so they casually found an excuse and excused themselves to leave.


    After ast nce at the ce, Mariana pushed Ana, who was still talking noisily about the design of


    this dress on her, aside and left.


    However, the man who had not spoken from the beginning, but only stood next to Diana, saw the red


    dress with a special meaning on Mariana''s body, with a color like light.


    The cold eyes shed very quickly. Leopold pursed his thin lips, his heart was also a little restless.


    Sitting back in a corner with Ana, Mariana dismissed theplicated thoughts that had just arisen and


    her eyes darkened.


    -Mari, this dress you are wearing is very well designed, isn''t it? It''s perfect, the color, the cut and the


    Most designs tended to be wed and, after repeated revisions,cked some creative ideas and


    eventually became ordinary.


    However, Mariana''s dress seemed to be the only attempt made under the inspiration, and it was


    However, the next moment, seeing some small details in her, Ana''s eyes trembled slightly. Her


    eyebrows furrowed slightly, with a puzzled, somewhat confused look.


    -Mari, where did you get this dress?


    Hearing this, his eyes grew dazed, but seeing the look of love and admiration on Anne''s face, he


    spoke,


    -This is the dress Xavier gave me for emergencies, weren''t you present at the time?


    Hearing this, the confusion in Ana''s eyes intensified. She raised her head, looked at Mariana and said


    softly.


    -Mari, don''t you think that the design of this dress does not seem to be a piece from this century, but


    rather from thest century? And it is likely that the designer is also constantly innovating, being


    influenced by western culture.


    Her eyes trembled slightly, and Mariana also unconsciously lowered her head, taking a closer look at


    the dress on her body. The stitching used in the sewing was indeed not as produced now.


    -Mari, you also know that I really like a designer, although she left a long time ago, but her short design


    career still existed brilliantly. I have collected some photos about her works, there is one in which the


    stitching is extremely simr to this one, so I think, this dress ...


    Before they finished, she was interrupted by a cold voice behind them, Mariana and Ana turned


    suddenly and saw Diana with her hands sped over her chest and a sullen face.


    -Mariana''s dress is very pretty.
