My Supermodel Wife

"Of course I still need it!" Tom hurriedly protested.

He didn't dare imagine how angry Jean would have been this time with Lilia being interrupted, but Tom had no other choice.​​

"Bro, I wouldn't bother you if I didn't have to, but the mayor is waiting for you in the lobby. He has to leave the party early because of other business." Tom explained, hoping that his friend would forgive him. He was afraid of Jean's anger, but he couldn't refuse the mayor's request either.

Jean nodded, "I'll deal with you later." He said coldly.

"Eh?! Seriously?! Bro, I'm just trying to help…!"

Jean ignored the man and turned to Lilia. Before Jean could say anything, the woman preceded him, "Hurry over there, don't make the mayor wait for you."

Jean stared at Lilia for a moment before smiling lightly. The woman clearly wanted to get away from him, "Okay. I will be right back. If you need anything, ask Tom and the others for help." Jean advised.

After making sure Lilia nodded, Jean walked over to Tom. He stopped in front of the poor man and gave him a cold stare, "Watch Lilia carefully. Don't let her get into trouble. If you do well, I'll forget what happened just now."

Tom automatically straightened his back and saluted him, "Roger that!"

Jean emphasized once again that Tom should look after Lilia before leaving the park.

As soon as Lilia and Tom returned to the hall, the festive atmosphere of the party swept away all of Jean's messages from Tom's head. This was the Widjaya Family celebration party and Lilia was the fiancée of the organizer of the party. Who the hell was stupid enough to mess with her?

When Tom had only been accompanying Lilia for a while, the man's eyes caught the figure of a beautiful actress. He reminded Lilia not to go out with strangers before approaching the actress.

Lilia could only smile seeing Tom's behavior. She looked around, but could not find Jean in the room. Lilia took a glass of champagne and went to the corner of the room. He spent time sipping the drink while watching the guests interact with each other. Even without Jean, the atmosphere in the room still felt so much alive.

Then Lilia's ears caught the sound of footsteps heading her way.

"Lilia Pangestu, don't be arrogant!"

Lilia slowly turned to Sara Hartanto, who was looking at her with a face full of hatred. Lilia just smiled mockingly and asked, "What did you say?"

Sara had lost all elegance and her face was filled with anger, "You think you can use Jean Widjaya to boost your career?! He will get bored of you soon and throw you out! Just like Will! Let's see later!"

The corner of Lilia's mouth twitched as Sara said the name William. She had forgotten the man and didn't want to be associated with him again.

"If you have time to care about my business, does this mean that you have managed to overcome the impact of that accident?" Lilia's voice was cynical and lazy, indicating that she didn't want anything to do with Sara.

"How dare you…!" Sara remembered all the taunts and insults she had received over the internet.

'All of this happened because of Lilia Pangestu!' The more Sara thought about the incident, the more her hatred for Lilia fueled.

The debate between the two beauties caught the attention of the other guests. Their gazes were mainly on the night sky-colored dress Lilia was wearing. Coupled with Lilia's perfect posture, she caught everyone's eyes.

When Sara ran out of words to reply to Lilia, she realized that they had become the center of attention. She felt frustrated that the guests' gazes were only on Lilia.

"I can't wait for the day when Jean Widjaya dumps you! I will definitely be there to see your pitiful and pathetic self!" Sara screamed angrily.

Lilia just nodded and smiled calmly, "Of course, I will wait for your presence."

Sara tossed her reddish brown hair and walked away in a huff. Lilia watched her disappear from the crowd while sipping champagne. Lilia hoped that Sara had gotten hold of herself after the hospital footage broke the internet, but it seemed like the woman was much dumber than she thought.

After standing in the corner of the hall for a long time without any sign of Jean's return, Lilia opened her phone and checked the time.

"... I'll just order a taxi." Lilia was tired of being a wall decoration and she didn't dare to drink too much champagne.

When Lilia reached the hotel lobby, a hotel staff approached her.

"Miss Lilia Pangestu? President Jean asked me to give this to you." The man held out something on the tray.

"What?" Lilia frowned and looked at the card on the tray.

Lilia took the card and examined it. It was the hotel card for room 3086. She tilted her head in confusion.
