Chapter 343: Her transformation
This person was telling Duran about the sick children and looking at the logs, the two had been in
contact for a long time.
The latest news was that the operated child was recovering well.
Seeing this news, Mariana's heart was also relieved. She really did not expect a cold personality like
Leopoldo to do such a tender act.
Perhaps her impression of Leopoldo was too rigid.
Through the last two days and today's events, she had a new understanding of Leopoldo and an
instant change of perspective.
Mariana carefully put the phone back in its place and then leaned against the tree trunk, waiting for
Leopoldo to approach while she had a lot of thoughts in her mind.
Instead of sitting down, Leopoldo, who had approached, bent down to pick up his phone and return the
message.
Mariana looked at Leopoldo, and lowered her heart, but couldn't help but want to express her sincere
opinion.
-You don't seem so cold yourself," she thought it in her mind, but it came out in a whisper.
Leopoldo, who had not heard her, looked at Mariana, who had covered her mouth and was a little
perplexed.
Mentally cursing herself for her carelessness, she shook her head.
Seeing this, Leopoldo said nothing, looked at the time and thought it was getting late.
-Let's come next time," he said and bent down for a princess hug.
Today was the third time, and Mariana stretched her arms around Leopoldo's neck.
Sensing that Mariana was no longer embarrassed, Leopoldo smiled.
She thought he would put her in a wheelchair, but he didn't let go.
-Eh? -Mariana reached out and tugged on Leopoldo's shirt, a little embarrassed.
"I don't think he's going to carry me back."
Mariana thought to herself.
Leopoldo paid no attention to Mariana's small movements, but instead hugged her tighter, pulling her
closer to him.
Seeing this, Mariana wanted to pull away, but instead, she was startled to see Leopoldo raise his hand
and immediately hugged him tightly.
-Don't move," Leopoldo said with some irritation.
When she looked up and saw his gaze, it was clear that she was enjoying it a little.
Realizing he was doing it on purpose, Mariana turned red and buried herself in his arms, ignoring him.
Feeling the movement of her arms, Leopoldo, who was watching the path, lifted the corners of his
mouth in a pleasant mood.
After this visit to the gardens, the two of them had taken to each other very quickly and had grown very
close to each other.
That day, Leopoldo had to devote time to his company, so Mariana was left alone in the hospital to
watch television.
Mariana, who was laughing at this variety show, suddenly heard a knock at the door.
-Please come in.
The people who came in the last two days were all acquaintances, so Mariana didn't think much of it, Material © of NôvelDrama.Org.
but she felt a little overwhelmed when she saw the visitor.
Because of his disastrous defeat to Leopoldo last time, Xavier was reluctant to come and make a fool
of himself, but his desire to see Mariana was too strong, so he came with a hard head.
Not seeing Leopoldo, Xavier calmed down.
When he entered the room and saw Mariana sitting on the bed, Xavier felt very happy.
-Mari, are you still recovering well?
With that, he reached over and tried to grab Mariana's arm. His expression was very anxious.
Mariana unconsciously avoided him, and seeing Xavier's hand stop in mid-air, she became a little
embarrassed.
For a moment, the atmosphere dropped to the freezing point.
Realizing that her actions had just gone too far, Mariana pursed her lips and opened her mouth to get
out of the uncomfortable atmosphere.
-It's okay, I'm recovering quite well," she said with a rather polite smile.
Xavier, who was initially full of expectation, was perplexed when he saw that Mariana kept her distance.
-How nice. I've brought you your favorite flowers, I'll put them by your bedside.
Although he was a little worried, in front of Mariana, Xavier was still trying to be as active as possible.
He approached the bed and frowned at the flowers on it. He even tried to reach out to take them away.
-Xavier, don't move, I don't need the flowers.
When she saw that the flowers Leopoldo had given her were going to be thrown by Xavier, Mariana
hurried to speak to stop him.
Guessing a few things, Xavier looked coldly at the flowers on the bed.
-The flower has wilted, so what's the point of keeping it?
Mariana did not understand Xavier's meaning, she just wanted to keep the bouquet of flowers.
-I like them, you can put the flowers by the window.
In order not to embarrass Xavier, Mariana found a new place for her flowers, but unknowingly, this was
what made him even more uncomfortable.
Xavier, who had approached the window, placed the flowers on the windowsill with gritted teeth.
He really couldn't understand what was so good about Leopold. He obviously didn't even know about
Mariana's injury by arriving at the hospital before him, but still Mariana turned to him, which made
Xavier very upset.
After dropping the flowers, Xavier changed his mood and went over to try to please Mariana.
-Mari it's getting late, and you must be hungry, why don't I go buy you that Cantonese food from last
time? I saw that you quite liked it last time," she said with hope on her face.
The last sudden encounter between Xavier and Leopoldo still left Mariana dismayed, so this time she
decided to turn him down directly.
-No, I'm not hungry right now," she said while flashing an embarrassed smile.
Being rejected like this, the idea that it was because of Leopoldo made him angry inside, but he forced
himself not to show it.
Xavier's stay here made Mariana feel depressed, and she really didn't know what to say to him, so she
could only give him a perfunctory answer.
Sensing Mariana's impatience and polite coping, Xavier felt very sad.
And he blamed Leopoldo for everything.
So that Mariana would not be overwhelmed, Xavier did not stay much longer and told her to take care
of herself before leaving.
It was Xavier's departure that immediately relaxed the nervous woman.
Because of the flowers by the window, Mariana did not hide the fact that Xavier had come. Although
Leopoldo had a conflict with that person last time, this time he had nothing to say after listening to her.
She breathed a sigh of relief and lay down on the bed to rest.
For several days in a row, Leopoldo almost transferred all his work to the hospital, taking care of her
while he worked.
His care was very effective and within a few days, Mariana met the criteria for discharge and was taken
home by Leopoldo.
In the two days since she returned home to recuperate, Leopoldo seemed like a different person. At
first, Mariana did not mind, after all, Leopoldo had left all her work matters in the hands of his assistant
to take care of her in the last few days, and now that she was well, it was time to take care of her work.
Mariana consoled herself in this way, but later, the man's actions became colder and colder. Anyone
could see that he was not busy, but deliberately distant.
He had shown so much care and concern at the hospital, but suddenly his attitude changed, and
Mariana could not accept it.
She tried calling Leopoldo several times, but the man always had an excuse to leave.
