Chapter 593: Taking the blame
-Please come in.
Leila's attention, immediately focused on the door, spoke.
Next, the nurse pushed open the door.
-Director, there are a lot of people downstairs all of a sudden, saying they want to check the patients on
the ward, and they don't know what they're checking, and they need you to go down there.
The nurse panicked, unsure of what was going on.
But the other side comes stomping in and seems to be stomping in.
How could Leopoldo move so fast?
He immediately got up and walked over to the window, ready to check which ones they were.
-Good. Stall them for a while and I'll be right down.
Leila wasn't too frightened by the situation, which didn't really bother her anyway.
Only her own brother would be involved, and whatever happened, she would try to disassociate Xavier,
as much as possible, from this affair.
-Did you get a good look at them? Was it them? -Leila asked, looking at Xavier with some confusion.
Xavier nodded, simply incredulous.
-It makes sense that they've only now ruled out the morgue. How could they have checked so quickly?
It's too unbelievable.
Xavier deduced from the time, but he couldn't imagine that Leopold would be so quick.
But seeing those people downstairs, Xavier could more or less understand that Mariana had lost her
son, who also belonged to Leopoldo.
One way or another, Leopoldo would have used all his connections to find his son. He must have
already received searches in many places, through various connections.
In this situation, he could not allow Daniel to appear in front of them. Otherwise, it would be a foregone
conclusion. And he risked taking the blame for the real bad guy if he didn't control himself.
-Sister, you must help me," Xavier looked at Leila and made the request to the other man.
In this situation, there was no other way to help him than Leila.
-I told you a long time ago to stay out of other people's business, but you didn't listen to me. If those
people find him, won't they think you tried to hurt the boy? They won't say you drank someone, but
instead they'll frame you as a murderer.
Leila stopped talking immediately after a couple of sentences.
This is also not the time to blame Xavier.
-Do you have a place where they can't go? I'll take this Daniel to hide now, he can't talk clean around
every corner," Xavier took the floor.
When he said it, it suddenly seemed possible that what he had said was too.
-Who knows.
Leila took the floor, puzzled.
-I guess Leopoldo didn't come, did he? -Leila looked at Xavier and asked her brother in unison.
Xavier looked out the window and shook his head, not seeing Leopoldo.
The city is very big, even if Leopoldo's people are everywhere. But there is no guarantee that all parts
of Leopoldo can be supervised at the same time.
-Wait a moment.
Xavier just shook his head, and immediately opened his mouth to change the meaning.
It really is a case of speak of the devil and just now he was saying that Leopold might not be there. The
moment he saw Leopoldo and Mariana, the two of them walking towards the hospital, one behind the
other.
-This is God trying to destroy me, isn't it? -Xavier looked at the scene below and could not believe it.
How could he not expect Leopoldo to show up here.
Leila looked up at the man's prior just in time to see Leopoldo and his wife.
-Good thing you're here, you don't happen to know them? Naturally they won't suspect you, and it's a
good thing you can introduce them that this is your sister's clinic," Leila reminded him, ready to make
the other one cheer up.
Xavier immediately came to his senses and followed the woman.
-What will happen to little Daniel when we are gone? -Xavier was behind him, whispering a couple of
words.
Leila quickened her pace and went straight into the elevator.
-I have an agreement. Just stay natural for a while, and don't let them see anything coming.
-Okay, I understand," Xavier replied. At a time like now, he had no better choice.
When the elevator stopped on the first floor, the doors slowly opened. As soon as they opened, Xavier
saw Mariana and Leopoldo.
-Director, there's no stopping them.
The nurse would have liked to stop Leopoldo and his group, but there was no way out.
These people were coming hard and he had to flee. He was just looking, and he had the relevant
instructions in his hand.
-Are you a director? -Leopoldo asked, looking at Leila and opening his mouth to ask the other man.
He was oblivious to Xavier at her side, not caring what Xavier's relationship with this woman was.
-Yes," Leila answered.
-Here is the certificate regarding my visit to this hospital for a search, you may read it. I can't be
disturbed too much, twenty minutes at the most.
Leopoldo's tone was not at all euphemistic, and as for Mariana, who was at his side, she was in no
mood to say more than a word.
She could not stay alone, she had to follow Leopoldo from early morning. From dawn to dusk, in any
case twenty-four hours of hard work, they had to go all over the city.
Leila took the proofs from the other party and probably read them all, there was no reason to return
them.
Everyone knows what kind of person Leopoldo is and how high he is in the city.
Even though the Bolaño family is rich and powerful, it is not for men to stand up to each other. And it is
at times like this that Leila has to be even more serene and not show her face.
-Go ahead. RêAd lat𝙚St chapters at Novel(D)ra/ma.Org Only
Leila said nothing and just made her way over, inviting Leopoldo and Mariana and their group into the
elevator.
Watching the other man do this, Xavier's mind was still apprehensive. From the time they had just
come down until now, he hadn't seen Leila instruct anyone to move little Daniel if necessary.
So, for a moment, he felt unsure in his mind.
-Why did you let them in so easily, just like that? -Xavier felt a little disappointed to see this.
He had thought Leila could have been more verbose, or at least slowed things down a bit.
-It's not like people just come looking, look this evidence is here, how much more do you want me to
talk? -Leila looked at her brother, it was clear that Xavier had dragged her along.
Now, even if you don't tell her you're sorry, you have to blame her for not doing the right thing.
-What now? -Xavier looked at the woman, not giving an answer.
The woman thought for a moment and then dropped the matter to her brother.
-Don't you know them? Why didn't you greet them a moment ago?
