Chapter 288: Decision

Mariana had no trouble stopping a passing cab, and ordered the driver to step on the gas pedal hard and head straight for the Durán family's villa.

Twenty minutes later, Mariana entered the villa, completely soaked and shivering.

Mariana felt a shiver run from her body to her heart.

-Ma'am, what's wrong with you?

Carmen, who was busy tidying up the living room, looked up and saw Mariana in that state.

Although it was raining heavily outside, it was unlikely that the show group would be so poor as to not have an umbrella.

-Carmen, I'm fine.

Afraid that Carmen would worry, Mariana shook her head, but a coldness surrounded her and she had to wrap her arms around her body to try to give herself some warmth. -Madam, have a glass of hot tea, I will prepare the water for you to take a hot shower, and change.

Carmen stared at Mariana's trembling body, fearing that she might catch a cold.

Looking at the hot tea Carmen handed her, Mariana's heart became more and more bitter, for at this moment, Carmen was the only one who really cared about her.

After taking a sip, Mariana felt that the coldness had dissipated.

-Ma'am, I have already prepared your water and hung your change in the bathroom.

Once this was done as quickly as possible, Carmen stood in front of Mariana again and motioned for her to follow her to the bathroom.

-Thank you, Carmen.

Mariana stifled a sob and made a small gesture before following her in the direction of the bathroom.

-Madam, this is all I have to do, so clean yourself up, while I make you some soup.

After all these years of being a maid, it was the first time Carmen had heard words of thanks from her boss's family, and she was still a bit stunned. Leaving Mariana to go into the bathroom, Carmen busied herself preparing ginger soup for her.

Without wet clothes and with her feet on the smooth marble floor, Mariana dropped into the bathtub with her eyes half closed.

Even if I was unlucky, I had to persevere. I had to participate in Super Design, and I had to prove to everyone that I wasn't a scumbag.

Only after a long while, Mariana got up from the bathroom and took out a towel to wrap her pale body.

-Madam.

Carmen's heart was calmed when she saw that Mariana's face was no longer pale. With a respectful shout, Carmen handed Mariana the hot ginger soup.

-Carmen, thank you.

There was an elegance in her actions that only a lady of a noble house could display, and although she had grown up in an ordinary family, she had never lost her temperament.

Taking Carmen's soup, Mariana drank most of it in one gulp, as if announcing her resurrection. After returning the bowl to Carmen, Mariana went back to her bedroom and started typing on her laptop.

At the other end of the room, the computer showed no signs of letting up. The program director's eyes were glued to the computer screen and he was frowning as he read a story about Mariana. -This Mariana, how can a little designer have so many things? -she shook her head.

The director's words were full of doubts about Mariana.

There was nothing positive in that story, only negative reports about Mariana. This scandal with Diana invaded the whole city.

The director, who had been positive about Mariana, began to doubt his own vision. The director's good opinion of Mariana dissipated almost completely.

-Director, this Mariana is really not good, she has only been in our program for a short time and she already has so much coverage, she looks like a problem girl.

The assistant next to her looked at the director with a worried face and intervened with a negative judgment about Mariana, even reminding the director that Mariana "loves to be the center of attention".

-Let's see.

The director sighed, hesitating to watch Mariana's performance again, after all, since the show had been on the air, Mariana was one of the few contestants who had excelled in design.

-Director, you have to think about it, don't you think our show has worked quite well before? Why have we had so many setbacks since this Mariana arrived?

Seeing the director's intentions, the assistant felt displeased, but did not dare to show it too clearly, so he could only mutter a few bad words about Mariana. After hearing the assistant's words, the director fell completely silent. His words were not without reason.

-Director, we've received a lot of good reviews for this show, and I have something to say.

Seeing that the director had lapsed into silence, the assistant also understood that the director had doubts and continued to seize the opportunity.

-If you have something to say, say it," the director nodded slightly, giving the floor to the assistant.

And at this point in his speech all his worries were dispelled, because whatever he said, the director would not be angry.

-Director, I am also thinking about the show. Everyone knows that Mariana is coming to our show, and her negative information will also affect us, we can't let our effort be ruined just because of Mariana, can we?

The assistant's words hit the nail on the head, clearly pointing out the most deadly point, and also the one that worried the director the most.

-Our effort will not be ruined just because of Mariana.

After taking a long, deep breath, the director spat out these words. He already had a clear answer in his heart, namely to expel Mariana, which was tantamount to indirectly sentencing Mariana to death.
