Chapter 290: Mariana Is Mine
Chapter 290: Mariana is mine
-Impossible? You mean I don''t deserve thepany morad?
Despite knowing what the director was thinking, Leopoldo acted as if he knew nothing.
Leopoldo''s body gave off an aura of danger and the words came out of his mouth as if the director was
mocking him.
As soon as Leopoldo''s words came out, the mood throughout the room became more and more
somber.
The director couldn''t help but gasp, he was too nervous to think any further, he just thought that
Leopold had probably misunderstood what he meant.
The director was no fool, he was facing a man who could shake the entire business world with the
slightest stomp. And if he offended this man, his career could be over.
-Mr. Durán, you must have misunderstood me. It''s just that the moradpany, although it is quite
Considering the seriousness of the situation, the director tried to contain his nervousness and, with a
smile, tried to exin himself.
Every word of this statement had been carefully thought out before daring to say it, for fear of upsetting
Leopold in the least.
The director was not the only one who was nervous, all the employees in the room were sweating for
the director, as they all knew what the consequences of offending Leopoldo would be.
Almost everyone was praying that Leopold would not notice their presence, and they didn''t even dare
to breathe, so the room was surprisingly quiet.
-Then you are overestimating me, the moradpany does belong to me.
Leopoldo passed by the director and sat in the chair. Although it is supposed to belong only to the
director, no one in the room dared to object to Leopoldo''s behavior.
Leopoldo announced the fact that Empresa morad was owned almost verbatim, which made the
director tremble even more.
-Mr. Durán, what are you talking about?
Unconsciously, the director sensed that Leopoldo''s words were directed at him, and his hands
clenched into fists, nails sinking into his fingers.
He used to be a booming man, but when it came to Leopold, his posture was as low as possible.
Although he was upset, the director knew he could not stand up to Leopold in his own strength, so he
could only contain his displeasure and continue with his ttering words.
-As we all know that the morad Company is my property, I am not going to beat around the bush,
Mariana is mine and no one can touch her.
The director, who was now a transparent person, was treated as if he were nothing by Leopoldo. His
voice echoed throughout the room, as if it were an order.
-Mr. Durán, this...
Leopoldo''s meaning was clear, and everyone in the room could easily hear that Leopoldo was here
today to prevent Mariana from being reced.
The director''s face was clouded, his fat lips were slightly open, but he could not say a word after a long
time.
Even the director hesitated to persuade Leopold, and none of those in the background dared to move,
they could only contemte the scene in silence, with their heads bowed.
-Well? Director, do you have anyments? I am busy.
Even though the director had lowered his voice, Leopoldo caught it in his ears. His eyes narrowed as
he asked for the director''s opinion, not forgetting to add a final word to tell him to hurry up and speak if
he had something to say.
Yes, Leopoldo''s time is so valuable that it is no exaggeration to say that the annual sry of one of
them is probably not worth ten minutes of his time.
"She''s a very small designer, but has she gotten Leopoldo to be willing to devote his time to take care
of everything for her?"
This caused several of the employees to hold a secret grudge against Mariana.
-I wouldn''t dare.
The director was about to say something else, but was taken aback by Leopoldo''s words and had no
choice but to swallow all the words he had failed to say.
-What about you?
Leopold''s eyes remained cold as he scanned the circle of staff seated around the conference table.
-Neither.
When the other members saw Leopoldo asking for them, they all looked down and tried not to look at
him, and said the same things as the director.
In a couple of words, he had solved Mariana''s crisis, and only after doing so, Leopoldo got up from his
seat and went to the door of the room.
-Mr. Durán, be careful.
Seeing that Leopoldo was about to leave, the director stepped forward and escorted him out of the
room.
Only when they heard the heavy footsteps of his shoes hitting the floor did the staff members in the
room dare to look up and catch a glimpse of the talented young man.
The female staff even imagined what their life with Leopoldo might be like in the future. After all,
Leopoldo''s charm is not something a normal person can resist.
After dismissing Leopoldo, the director returned to the room and sat down in his own seat, but now he

was surprised.
Now he had to consult Leopoldo even if he wanted to fire a person, which made him feel very
unbnced.
His eyes stared into the ss of the conference table, and you could see the fierceness in his eyes.
-Director.
It was the first time he had seen the director with that look on his face, and the staff member sitting not
far from him couldn''t help but call out to him, but then fell silent.
Raising his head and meeting the staff''s gaze, the director remained silent.
-Director, do we still have to change Mariana?
The entire room fell into an awkward silence, and it was a bold staff member who finally took the floor
and asked the question that the others dared not ask, breaking the silence.
With a bit of anticipation and doubt, everyone''s eyes rested on the director, waiting for him to make a
decision.
-Not anymore," said the director, almost gritting his teeth.
He did not want to let Mariana continue in the program and bring more negative news, but now that
Leopoldo had given the order, he could not disrespect Leopoldo even if he did not respect Mariana.
