Chapter 508: Lies
She seemed to be blocked by Leopoldo and had no way out.
-Damn you, Leopoldo! -Mariana cursed coldly as she sat on the bed.
At the moment, her heart felt anguished. He could not let her do anything, but she did not understand
why she could not see her son.
-Young master, isn't it a bit bad to lock the lady up like that?
When the housekeeper saw that Leopold handled the situation that way, she became very worried.
Women very often still needed persuasion.
It was also true that she did not agree with his actions. Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.
-If we don't keep her like this, she will run away," Leopoldo said shamelessly as he looked at the butler.
Mariana had to be treated this way in order to agree, no other method will work.
The housekeeper looked in the direction of the bedroom and slowly understood what Leopoldo meant.
After three years on the run, it was time to capture and lock this woman up for a good long time.
-Sir, are you coming out? -asked the butler curiously as he looked at Leopoldo.
"Where does the young master go at this hour when the lady is at home?"
-The young master is home alone, I have to go get him.
Leopoldo looked at the housekeeper and got into a good mood. It was true that he needed his wife to
come back with his son to feel better.
Otherwise he would look dead every day.
-Young master? -The butler looked at Leopold and his heart was glad too.
When Madame and the young master return, the house will be completely lively. From now on,
Leopoldo will be able to come more often for dinner, and the peace and quiet of the house will be
broken.
-Yes.
Leopoldo smiled like a father who at any moment was going to pick up his son.
-Ding dong!
Suddenly, there was a knock at the door.
The housekeeper's expression was surprised. It was very late and yet someone was knocking at the
door. On a normal day, the Durán family rarely had guests.
Thinking so, the butler's curiosity was aroused.
-Dad!
The butler's legs had just moved forward when a knock reached the ears of the two men. Leopold
could quickly recognize the voice of his own son.
-Is it the young master? -the butler asked Leopoldo as he looked at him.
Leopoldo rushed out the door, only to see Noe standing in front of the front door with little Daniel in his
arms.
-I was about to pick you up, but did you have someone send you back? -Leopoldo said with a smile on
his face as he looked at his son. Having him delivered saved him the trouble of going to pick him up.
Leopoldo took his son from Noe's hand, cuddling him.
-Thank you.
With a sidelong glance at Noe, Leopoldo set about carrying his son toward the house.
Noe's eyes fell on the man's body and he spoke suddenly:
-Signor Durán, is Mariana here?
-Yes," Leopoldo immediately answered the other man.
The person was his, and even if Noe likes him, he will only be able to hide him in his heart for the rest
of his life. This man had no capital in his hands to compete with himself for a woman.
Or rather, the man could not afford to fight.
-I told you, Mama must be here with Father Leopoldo," Daniel looked at Leopoldo and immediately took
the floor.
He assumed Mariana was here, but he had no idea what Leopoldo had done to her. However, Noe
knew that Mariana would never agree to be with Leopoldo.
-You've got her locked up, don't you? -Noe looked at Leopoldo and asked directly.
Noe was not at all shy even in the presence of the boy.
-First, take the young master to get something to eat.
Leopoldo handed the child to the housekeeper, ready to chat alone with Noe. Little Daniel looked at
Leopoldo, his face full of confusion.
He was three years old, but he was able to understand Noe's words.
-Why did you lock up mommy? -Daniel questioned the man with his mouth open.
-Daniel, don't listen to this guy's nonsense. Go eat something first, and you can see your mother later,"
Leopoldo calmed his son and did not let Daniel believe the other party's words.
"What do you mean by lock her up? Noe really has the nerve to say anything."
-Okay.
Daniel nodded, ready to go get something to eat. It was hard to be so hungry all the time. Besides, he'd
get to see his mother when he was done eating.
Leopoldo did not give in and insisted that Leopoldo admit to locking Mariana up.
-You said she hadn't been locked up by you, so tell me, where is she now?
Noe was sure that Leopoldo had locked Mariana up and would not let it go easily.
-Do you want to know? -Leopoldo looked at the other man and asked.
Noe looked at his opponent, not knowing what new tricks he had up his sleeve.
-The person is only locked up by you, so now he can't get out," Noe said indifferently.
Mariana had always been clear that she didn't want to be with Leopoldo, so how was it possible to
change her mind in such a short time?
-You're still funny, why do I have to lock her up?
Looking at the other man, Leopoldo was also curious to know where Noe's reasoning was coming
from.
This man seemed very suspicious to him.
-Mariana! Mariana! -Noe immediately pronounced the woman's name, oblivious to his surroundings.
As long as Mariana answered him and hinted that she was locked up, Noe would definitely get her out
of here. Leopoldo was not an omnipotent being.
-Noe Cantero, this is my house," Leopoldo told her coldly.
This was his house, and Noe was not allowed to yell like that. This man really took himself seriously.
-So tell me, where did he go? -Noe asked him as he looked at the man again.
He just wanted to know if Mariana was confined. That woman had been independent and strong for so
long that she couldn't let herself be imprisoned by Leopoldo like that. There was something really
wrong with the way Leopoldo loved people.
-He's taking a bath.
Mariana was upstairs taking a shower, that's why she couldn't come downstairs. This reason was quite
convincing.
-What did you say? -Noe looked at the other man with confusion in his eyes.
"Showering?"
When Mariana left Noe three years ago, her attitude was very firm and she admitted that she would
never accept Leopoldo again, she would never be with that man again in her life.
Even today, Mariana said the same thing.
How was it possible that Mariana was already with Leopoldo in such a short time?
-Noe, do you know something?
Seeing the man's expression, Leopoldo's heart couldn't help but speculate. Perhaps this man had lied
to him three years ago.
At the time, Leopoldo had not reacted.
Noe had always liked Mariana, so when Leopoldo sought her whereabouts, Noe should have been the
first to not want Leopoldo to know.
