Please behave My Lord

Chapter 18: Interested in this model

He deliberately did not lower his voice when he spoke, so people around him could hear him clearly, even Mariana and Andrea on stage as well.

Mariana only glanced at it and didn't give it any importance because she was afraid she would be distracted.

Andrea's face, for her part, became a little uglier. She tried desperately to keep a smile on her face without realizing that her expression had already twisted a bit.

When he heard all the people downstairs echoing that man, an evil gleamed in his eyes.

"It's Mariana again!"

"Are these people blind? How am I inferior to them?"

By the way, this man was someone Mariana knew. To be precise, there must have been only a few people present who did not know him.

He was Xavier Bolaño. A famous and legendary actor in the country, equally recognized in the international community.

As well as his fame, his romances were also well known. Someone had once made statistics of the women with whom he had scandals and discovered that they did not fit on a whole sheet of paper.

He was known in his circle as a loose cannon and didn't care what the outside world thought, and from time to time he even scolded journalists until they were mute.

-What's the matter, are you interested in this model? -Technically, she's not a model, but a designer, and quite famous in the industry.

-Ah?

Xavier raised his eyebrows. It was rare to hear his ever-demanding agent praise someone, so he was curious,

-What is it about?

-Before the start of the launch, the dress she had prepared was maliciously torn, and she simply improvised another set of clothes. Such a decisive means is not something that ordinary people can do. But I didn't expect that she was not only talented, but even had such calm manners on stage. I've been thinking that I might find an opportunity for her to join our studio, such a talent is rare.

-Is that so?

Xavier smiled playfully and lazily shifted his sitting position. His laughing eyes were fixed on the woman on the catwalk without hiding his interest in her in any way.

When Mariana turned around and looked over, she happened to see Xavier blinking at her.

Her complexion changed and she almost lost her rhythm. She hurried to calm herself and when she looked up again, her gaze accidentally met the deep, cold one of a certain man and a shiver ran down her spine.

It was Leopoldo.

Was she coming to see Andrea? Mariana raised her head, repressed the surge of doubt in her heart and took steps to prepare to return.

But Andrea, who had hostility against her at her side, noticed this momentary strange action, immediately looked along her sight and saw that Leopold was there, and her eyes instantly lit up. Then she noticed him and found that his gaze did not seem to focus on her at all.

From memory, this man always seemed so cool and level-headed, but at this moment the warmth in his eyes was unlike anything she had ever seen before. There even seemed to be a tinge of wonder and recognition in this warmth. And from beginning to end, his gaze remained solely on Mariana who stood by his side.

The corners of her lips that were about to rise instantly turned downward. A coldness shone in Andrea's eyes!

-Welcome the next group of models to show us D&K's new season designs.

The host appeared on cue and smilingly said:

-Once again, I want to thank the two excellent models for bringing us a feast of perspectives!

Plas, plas! A great applause sounded!

The guests below reacted clearly more enthusiastically than before.

Media cameras followed closely behind the two and from time to time sounds of admiration and affirmation could be heard. Mariana sighed in relief, finally able to relax.
