My Supermodel Wife

That afternoon on the same day, Caleb and Stefani went to the house of one of their acquaintances in Surabaya. They heard that the old man was here, so they naturally wanted to say hello and meet him.

Lilia and Mellisa politely declined Caleb's invitation to go with him. Caleb looked disappointed, but he didn't insist.​​

The old man solemnly said, "Girls, look forward to hearing from me. Besides, if someone bothers you, tell me right away! I will punish them severely!"

Caleb really liked these two kids. Even though he was still a bit unfamiliar with Lilia, he had already taken her under the wing of the Mayer Family through his words.

The two sisters stood at the gates of the Lakeside Villa and watched the convoy slowly leave. The start of the cold rainy season seemed to have gotten much warmer because of the old man's visit.

The afternoon wind was blowing hard, bringing a chill that pierced the bones. Lilia and Mellisa looked at the highway for a long time. Suddenly, their shoulders were simultaneously covered with coats.

Behind them, Jean and Leonard moved almost in unison. The two men never bothered them during their conversation with Caleb earlier. Now they calmed their partner's busy minds with their deep care.

Lilia turned her head back and smiled broadly. She couldn't help but turn and hug Jean. On the other hand, Mellisa just blinked and thanked Leonard for the coat with an awkward expression. This marked the biggest difference between these two sisters.

Leonard laughed helplessly at Mellisa's response. Then he led Mellisa back to the villa next door. "Come on, you have to change your clothes!"

The two of them walked away with Lilia and Jean gazing from afar. Lilia's eyes felt a little damp as she raised her head and stared at the man's ocean blue eyes. She raised her cold hand and sought warmth from Jean's large hand.

"Jean, are you deliberately not removing the hot topic about my background because you wanted Grandpa to see it?" Lilia asked suspiciously.

There was a huge difference between Caleb and the Irwan family. For the Irwan Family, there were too many factors to consider that got in their way to defend Lilia. However, Caleb was born on the battlefield. His tough and merciless character wouldn't let anyone hurt the people he wanted to protect.

Caleb's arrival in Surabaya indicated that he already knew everything. It so happened that cyberspace was flooded with topics regarding Lilia's background on the Internet today. In the end, all went well.

After Lilia asked him that, the man pulled her body closer. They walked back into the living room with Jean's arm around her.

The coldness on Lilia's body disappeared thanks to the warmth of the living room. The two of them then sat on the sofa together. As soon as Lilia leaned on Jean's shoulder, she heard the man's soft voice explain, "Not really, but I did let your grandfather see it,"

Lilia lifted her head from Jean's embrace and expressed her feelings. "Perhaps, it would be more accurate to say that I was surprised by what Grandpa did today. I didn't expect him to recognize me as a relative of the Mayer Family. That alone is enough to make me happy," Lilia said sincerely.

Jean responded by rubbing Lilia's head with a heavy sigh. This humility often made Jean fall in love with his wife again.

"Besides, my parents still have many things to worry about. But my grandfather firmly said that I am the child of the Mayer Family, which is actually quite ironic," Lilia said with a sarcastic smile.

When Lilia left the Irwan Family's house, she witnessed Robert and Sylvia taking Leila away. At that moment, Lilia thought as if she had become an orphan. 

She felt…. unwanted.

But Caleb's visit today was like a spring breeze and rain soaking a barren land in her heart. Lilia realized that even after all that had happened, there were still people who were willing to acknowledge her, and accept her as she was.

Jean noticed that Lilia was feeling a little depressed, so he hugged her closer to his c.h.e.s.t. The man gently stroked Lilia's cheek with his fingertips.

Jean said in a soft and magnetic voice, "The old man's purpose in throwing a celebratory party is to force the Irwan Family to publicly acknowledge your identity. Otherwise, he wouldn't have come all the way here today,"

Lilia nodded. "I can feel it! However, even if the Irwan Family recognizes me as their daughter, I have nothing to be proud of. If they still refuse to reveal the truth of this whole problem and don't give justice to Mellisa, then they are not my true family," Lilia affirmed.

Her pair of black as the night sky eyes were filled with determination. Jean found himself never tired of admiring the clearness of his wife's eyes.

"Even though Leila has returned to the Pangestu Family's house, I'm not sure that she will just accept it. It is possible that she is the one causing the hot topic on the Internet today," Lilia shared her doubts about Leila, and her eyes slowly fell on the surface of the lake outside the window.

Lilia leaned her body in the man's embrace. Her nose was filled with Jean's signature spring scent. She never thought that her feud with Leila would end so easily.

Even though Leila had returned to the Pangestu Family's house, she wouldn't just give up. If that woman wasn't greedy, she wouldn't dare to play the Irwan Family and the Pangestu Family on the palm of her hand at the same time.

Lilia's pair of clear eyes stared at distance with a glint of mockery, and after a while, she suppressed this impatient emotion. She raised her head with a smile, and met Jean's ocean blue eyes.

"Are you going to the company this afternoon?" Lilia asked, changing the subject.

Jean lowered his head slightly, and his lips touched Lilia's forehead. His voice was soft as he replied in a spoiled tone, "How about I stay with you here a little longer?"

"Aren't you busy? How about… I'll accompany you to the office? To cheer you up?" Lilia asked with a big smile.

The excited expression on Lilia's face made the man's throat tighten. Jean leaned in and whispered, "So you have decided to be sensible today?"

Lilia unconsciously pulled away when Jean suddenly approached, but she was already in the man's embrace. When she couldn't move back, she could only turn around and sit down.

The woman frowned and beat Jean on the shoulder playfully. "I've always been so sensible!" Lilia protested. "You have accompanied me for so long before, you must have a lot of work! I'm going to change clothes, so let's go to the company together!"

After Lilia finished speaking, she immediately got up from the sofa. However, Lilia hesitated for a moment before turning around, then leaned over and kissed the man's lips.

"Wait for me, I'll be done soon!" She said before hurrying away.

Jean chuckled, but he followed Lilia's words and leaned back on the sofa. His eyes watched his wife run upstairs, and an indulgent look flashed across his eyes. As a good husband, he would do whatever she asked him to do!
