Chapter 413: Don't Look Back
-Mr. Durán can always not ask," said Eduardo with a nonchalant, distracted air. He had clearly
calculated Leopoldo's heart and that was why he said those things. For Leopoldo, Mariana was the
only thing that existed.
That is why he preferred to get out of the car himself and let the woman enter the reserve.
Leopoldo's heart clenched as he watched his men kick the car one foot after another. He could not
stand Mariana being treated this way and was very worried.
For him, nothing could happen to Mariana.
-Please," Leopoldo uttered two words as he looked frightened at the woman.
Naturally, Eduardo was surprised and delighted with Leopoldo's reaction. He had never thought that at
this juncture, Leopoldo would actually bow to a woman.
This was very surprising.
-"Senor Durán, a hero is saddened by the sight of a beauty," said Eduardo mockingly, winking at his
own men. The word "please" had been uttered, and Eduardo was not good at speaking without
counting.
The group stopped their attack and surrounded the car.
Seeing that the crowd was no longer attacking her, Mariana carefully crossed her eyes in Leopoldo's
direction. She was worried about him, so she turned around, she was definitely not one to run away.
She could not be calm if something happened to Leopoldo.
-Mr. Durán, let the lady down so we can discuss.
It was as if Eduardo had the situation in his hands and was no longer afraid of Leopoldo. Leopoldo's
gaze also fell on the person inside the car, and he could not turn away.
Wouldn't it be foolish to let Mariana get out?
Mariana clearly saw the current situation, and there was no doubt that Leopoldo had captured their
leader. Therefore, everyone did not dare make any rash moves. Mariana pondered the situation for a
while and thought of a plan.
She opened the window and let out a characteristic female voice.
-It's okay for me to get out, but you have to promise me one condition.
Mariana opted to take the initiative to negotiate with Eduardo and put the initiative in his hands.
-What conditions? Tell me," Eduardo looked in Mariana's direction, without putting this woman in his
eyes in the least.
Her presence would have completely ruined Leopoldo.
Leopoldo's gaze was fixed on Mariana, impassive. Vaguely, he also seemed to see Mariana's intention,
could it be that this woman was trying to...?
-Let him go," Mariana looked at Leopoldo and spoke.
Eduardo laughed when he heard this. Now it was not Leopoldo who was captured, but Eduardo. How is
it justified to ask Eduardo to release Leopoldo?
This man, Leopoldo Durán, was not an easy character to play.
-So, what do you say? How can we save ourselves? -Mariana looked at Eduardo as if she were
seriously negotiating with the other side. Only negotiation could bring any possibility.
The problem with Mariana and Leopoldo was that he could not go and she could not leave.
-Eduardo looked at Mariana and opened his mouth to guide the other party. Behind him, Leopoldo's
eyes rested on Mariana, without moving a muscle.
He neither opposed nor supported her.
Watching things unfold before him as nature took its course, it seemed that, whatever happened, he
would listen to Mariana.
-All right, I'll come down...
Mariana smiled and looked at Eduardo. It was fine to let her go downstairs and take her time to discuss
it, but Eduardo wouldn't let her go either, so he was thinking of asking her to be the bargaining chip.
Mariana unbuckled her seatbelt and was about to get out of the car.
Almost in the blink of an eye, Mariana started the car and made a big turn that blew the whole line of
people around it. Eduardo was surprised to see this scene.
This situation had never occurred to him.
-A pile of garbage!
Eduardo was furious to see this scene. This group of people should have known from the beginning
that Mariana would most likely crash into them, now it was all over.
Leopoldo looked in Mariana's direction with admiration in his eyes.
His wife had a lot of guts.
Seeing that her plan had succeeded, Mariana hurried to grab hold and drove in Leopoldo's direction.
Eduardo's eyes filled with fear when he saw the woman coming in his direction.
-Come here! -Leopoldo pushed Eduardo away and tied all the other man's hands with rope.
If Eduardo wanted to hurt himself, it depended on whether God was willing to do it or not.
-Eduardo, you've been in your circle long enough. If you get away with it for a couple of days, I'm
coming for you for sure," Leopoldo tied Eduardo to the car in a no-win knot.
Even with Rafael, he wouldn't let him go.
The two men were too young to try to confront him.
-Señor Durán, this matter is our fault, could you forgive the little man and not bother with us?
Eduardo was frightened, he knew Leopoldo's strength.
He hurried to beg for clemency while he still had the chance.
This is non-negotiable, use all your skills to escape. If I catch you, I will kill you," Leopoldo's gaze fell on
Eduardo and he said indifferently.
At times like this, killing Eduardo did not require him to do it himself.
-Mr. Durán.
Eduardo had an unsettling feeling and hurried to apologize to the man. If he didn't ask for forgiveness
at a time like this, it would really be over.
No, he could not be caught by Leopoldo.
Especially at this time of year, he wasn't to be.
-Someone untie me.
Edward didn't care how capable Leopoldo was, he had to make one last stand. But as long as there
was the slightest chance of survival, he would try to escape by any means possible.
The only thing Eduardo had survived so far was because of this.
But this time, he had not been so lucky. Text content © NôvelDrama.Org.
-Leopoldo, are you all right? -Mariana asked with concern when she saw the man walking in the
direction of the car.
Leopoldo's gaze fell on the woman, his eyes filled with a different emotion.
His Mariana was very brave.
-Listen to me and don't turn around.
Leopoldo got into the car and indicated to Mariana to sit in the passenger seat. He started the car and
set out to drive in the indicated direction.
Mariana did not look back when she heard Leopoldo's words.
After waiting a while for the car to move, Mariana could not contain her curiosity and could not help but
ask:
-Can I look back now?
She thought there was something mysterious, so she didn't dare to look back.
So she kept her head on her shoulders and let herself be struck by a heartbeat.
If it weren't for that, he would have turned his head a long time ago. Normally, he had no desire to turn
his head, but hearing Leopoldo, he became curious.
Leopoldo drove on and looked at the woman next to him.
-All right.
Leopoldo was partly amused to see Mariana's obedient and immobile appearance. She had only
insisted on not looking back when she had just left.
He was afraid Mariana would see the scene of Eduardo's tackle.
He didn't want that, she would be frightened.
-Why won't you let me watch?
Mariana looked back and there was nothing at all. She wasn't sure and looked at the man driving
beside her with a curious face.
