Chapter 420: Shopping in a family store
In Raul's mind, he had no idea why Leopoldo had done this. In his heart, Leopoldo was not a very
reasonable person. Knowing that he and Rafael were related, he kept treating him this way.
It was all very strange.
In the car parked firmly in front of the mall.
-The president has repeatedly ordered that you are not allowed to leave," she said.
The nanny behind her followed closely behind Mariana. The whole family knew that Mariana was
pregnant.
It was big news for the Durán family.
-Staying at home all day and all night bores me to death.
Mariana finally had the chance to go out, where was she going to get another chance to go out so
easily? The doctor had said she was two months pregnant.
Now she just had to prepare everything for the arrival of this child.
The baby in her belly, she wasn't sure if it was a boy or a girl.
-Slowly, ma'am, slowly.
The nanny followed her to the other side, afraid she would trip over something. The baby was a big
deal, and if anything went wrong, it probably wouldn't end well for everyone.
Upon learning she was pregnant, Mariana's personality had become quite cheerful.
People got depressed when they were pregnant, but only Mariana was different.
-Carmen, how about this?
Mariana went to a maternity store and picked out these beautiful clothes. These clothes were tiny and
just adorable.
Carmen looked at the clothes and nodded her head affirmatively.
At the same time, Sofia also arrived at the store accompanied by her best friend. Because of Rafael's
incident, she was depressed and could not get excited about anything.
She did not understand why Rafael wanted to provoke Leopoldo.
-Sofia, why did you say you were not coming when you had a mahjong date the other day?
Her best friend and Sofia walked side by side with contempt in their eyes. She didn't understand what
was so urgent about Sofia.
In the old days, Sofia could do without anything, but there would be no shortage of mahjong.
Sofia is fat, but she is only in her early thirties. Before she married her rich husband, she was also a
glamorous and beautiful woman. Unfortunately, she repeatedly resisted her partner and gave herself
up to become what she was now. This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.
When she met Rafael she felt she had found true love.
At first, due to the instability of her own work and rest in the last ten years, she had many health
problems. The three tall ones had also found her, and at thirty-five or thirty-six, her whole body had the
problems of a person in her fifties or sixties.
-I'm pregnant," Sofia didn't mention a word about Rafael in front of her best friend.
On the one hand, she was joking, and on the other, she didn't think it was necessary.
-Let's go in and take a look," her best friend accompanied Sofia. She had by no means expected that
Sofia, whose age was close to forty, would still be able to conceive a child.
And, still with that man.
How else could I say the world is really full of endless drama? Anything could happen, especially
something like this.
-Well," Sofia nodded and entered the store accompanied by her best friend.
Once inside the store, her best friend's eyes fell inside, touching the woman next to her several times.
-Look, it's Mrs. Durán.
The best friend used to be nosy and knew a lot about such things.
Sofia wasn't sure, and when she looked up, she saw Mariana.
She recognized Mariana, the young starlet who was making a name for herself. At that moment,
Mariana was picking out her clothes. There was only one reason he could meet her in such a place.
Mariana is also pregnant.
-She's pregnant, isn't she? Look at that smile.
Her best friend couldn't help but speculate beside her, not noticing the difference in Sofia's face. Sofia
looked at the other woman and didn't want to approach her for questioning.
But now they were in a position where they needed to plead with Leopoldo.
In this kind of critical situation, the rules were not to be relaxed. Otherwise, if Raul's side triumphed,
wouldn't it be a waste of effort? Stepping back, Sofia could not look at Mariana wrong.
Besides Mariana's identity, there was even less reason to approach her.
-What's wrong with you?
Seeing Sofia staring at Mariana motionless, her best friend couldn't help but ask.
At being reminded by her best friend, Sofia immediately came to her senses.
-Madam.
The babysitter was the first to notice Sofia's eyes and she took to remembering Mariana standing next
to her. The way that woman was acting, she seemed in a very bad mood.
Mariana was silent for a moment before glancing over.
She thought she was recognized by an admirer and pulled down the hat she wore on her head. Then
she picked up her shopping basket and headed for the checkout counter.
-She seems to have noticed we're watching her.
Her best friend couldn't help but tell Sofia as she watched Mariana's every move. Whatever it was,
Mariana was also a famous person.
One had to avoid seeing people like them in this situation.
Sofia's eyes were still fixed on the other party, when suddenly the cell phone in her purse rang. Seeing
that the note was "Raul", Sofia immediately picked up the phone, her heart slightly dazed.
-Brother," Sofia turned around, determined to know the result.
Since the other party was calling her at the time, presumably they had met with Leopoldo. Sofia was
full of anticipation and only hoped that the news the other party was bringing was good. After all, it was
her last hope.
Raul was silent for a while, but still spoke.
-I did what I could, but what Rafael did really doesn't deserve to be forgiven.
The result was clear.
-Brother, what do you mean by that? Even you won't save us now? Do I... do I have to see the father of
the child killed like this? -Sofia growled with her emotions somewhat out of control.
Her best friend's eyes widened when she saw Sofia in that state.
-Sofia, what's going on?
She and Sofia had been friends for a long time, and the two had only known each other since the
woman had married into a wealthy family. The two were born around the same time, so they chatted
well.
Now, looking at Sofia, she could tell there was something she hadn't told her.
-It's okay," Sofia looked at her best friend, not wanting to go into details.
There was really nothing Raul could do on his part, and he was already grateful that Leopoldo didn't
hate him along with him. At this point, how could he go against Leopoldo? That would be asking for
trouble.
-The day after tomorrow I'm leaving the country and we shouldn't contact each other again," Raul was
determined not to get involved with Sofia anymore.
Life was by choice, and it was Sofia's fault that things had come to this point.
-Brother, brother... Wait a minute.
The other party ruthlessly hung up on Sofia. Seeing Sofia's nervous look, her best friend was also
confused by the situation.
It looked like something had happened.
Sofia was silent for a moment, and "Mariana" suddenly burst into her mind.
-Mariana, Mariana...
