Chapter 46: Your Relationship with Him
The face was still cold, no different than usual, but his eyes showed his anger.
-What are you talking about?
The woman's voice was shaky.
She remembered Xavier, who had just sent her back.
"Did you just see it? "
-The set still has to design one last costume, and I was working late. But then he bumped into me and
took me back.
Mariana lowered her eyes and explained in a soft voice.
-Is that so? I hope you won't be fooled next time, too.
The coldness pierced the darkness and stabbed straight into Mariana's soft heart, making her shiver
involuntarily, her feet heavy, unable to take a single step.
The man gave off a faint odor of tobacco as he passed.
Mariana took a moment to calm herself before climbing the stairs.
Leopold was standing behind her, holding a glass in his hand, dangerous and calm, like a devil in the
dark.
-Mariana.
He muttered under his breath, craning his slender neck and finishing the glass of ice water.
Mariana sat down in her small study and turned on her computer. What had just happened kept
replaying over and over in her mind, making it impossible for her to calm down and think. She couldn't
help but shake her head and then lightly rub her forehead.
Something seemed to have gone astray, leaving her unable to comprehend, and she could only move
forward in a futile daze.
His eyes unfocused on the computer screen in front of him, and suddenly the clutter in his mind cleared
for a moment, and a spark burst into his mind, which saw it and caught it.
It looked like she got a clue.
With a quick swipe of the mouse in his hand, smooth, clear lines immediately appeared on the
computer screen, soon revealing the set.
The long, straight, soft, thin skirt was covered with white chiffon, the hem of which was inlaid with a
myriad of begonias in bloom, the tops of the white petals tinged with a little red.
Seeing the heroine's costume already designed on the screen, Mariana couldn't help but lean back, her
face stunned.
"The design of the dress was inspired by... her relationship with him."
Mariana shook her head fiercely, pushing away the various stray thoughts in her head one by one, and
continued to start the design in her hands.
"The most important thing now is to get the suit design."
The next day, Mariana arrived early to the set, put down the bag, took out the computer inside and
placed it on the table, then started to pick up the fabrics she had sorted yesterday, selected the most
suitable ones and started cutting them out.
The silky white fabric was spread out on the table, and the light folds of it flattened before Mariana
began to take the scissors and trim it.
In a few moments, the fabric was already showing its shape.
The faint sunlight streamed in through the window, illuminating the busy figure of the woman, whose
slender body cast mottled black shadows on the white fabric.
When the garment was picked up and unfolded, the threads fell to the floor and the design on the
computer screen was now a beautiful white dress.
After gently stroking the delicate hem of the begonia, Mariana's face revealed a faint smile and she
breathed a sigh of relief.
It wasn't until midnight when Mariana finally finished making the two suits for men and women, gently
placing a transparent protective cover over the suits and then hanging them on hangers.
Mariana examined them carefully for a long time before calming down.
"When I show these two pieces to the director tomorrow, my overall work on the production will be
complete, and only a few small jobs will remain."
Mariana leaned back and leaned gently against the back of the seat, looking extremely calm.
After enjoying a moment of peace, Mariana got up and covered the two outfits with a black cloth,
wrapping them well before closing the door and leaving.
Since this episode was not known to the world and was kept secret. Therefore, these costumes could
not be shown.
What he didn't know, however, was that after she left, a furtive figure had sneaked into the costume
room and removed the black cloth covering the outside, exposing the male and female costumes
inside.
Even in the dark, the suits looked bright and dazzling, like a bit of starlight in a dark sky.
This person had a look of astonishment on his face, and the next moment he took the camera in his
hand and took some pictures of the costumes in great detail, without missing a single detail.
After doing so, he calmly left again.

Back home, surrounded by darkness, Mariana groped her way to the kitchen to find some food and
simply ate something to fill her stomach before going up to her room.
The soft knock on the door seemed very clear, even in the silent night.
Standing in front of the window, Leopoldo forced himself to be quiet, hung his head and extinguished
the cigarette in his hand, tossing it into the ashtray to the side, his movements natural.
The next day.
Mariana took Ana to the director's room, but she did not expect to see the producer also in the room,
with a heavy face. The atmosphere in the room was a bit tense.
Frowning slightly, Mariana felt uncomfortable. Nevertheless, she showed the director and producer the
costumes she had designed. She gently placed the hanger on the floor, the black fabric was still on the
outside of the costume and had not yet been removed.
Mariana's face had a smile on it. She and Ana stood to the left and right of the hanger, nodding their
heads in greeting, ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .
-Director, these are the costumes I have designed for this scene.
After saying this, he reached out and unhooked the black cloth, and the two suits in white and black
appeared.
They were flashy and dazzling.
-How beautiful!
A gasp sounded from beside her, with a hint of admiration. Ana spared no praise.
-Mari, these two pieces are too beautiful!
Last night, Mariana had only made the finished products, so Ana had not yet had a chance to see
them. Now she couldn't help but be impressed by Mariana's talent.
Hearing this, Mariana smiled and a red appeared on her face.
However, the director and producer looked at the two costumes and did not even change their faces a
little, which were still so grim.
Mariana felt a little bad. "Could it be that my designs don't satisfy them?"
-Director, producer, if you are not satisfied, I can redesign again, this...
Before Mariana could finish, the director interrupted her with a frown,
-Mariana, I've actually seen your designs before you came.
As he said this, the director held out his cell phone to her, Mariana was a little stunned and looked at
the phone without moving.
