My Supermodel Wife

Jean's tone was low and slow. The man spoke in a straightforward manner, but it made everyone present feel how much he cared and loved Lilia.

Everyone was blown away by this moment. They wondered, how could they believe the fake news on the Internet? LIlia's rich husband treated her so well. Why should she use such a dirty trick to win her husband's heart? Everyone here could see how much her husband loved her!​​

Jean's coat wrapped around Lilia's frail-looking shoulders. Instantly, the familiar scent of spring swept over the model's sense of smell. Lilia smiled a little and raised her eyebrows.

"I won't catch a cold. This is called a job's demand. Besides, I'll drink hot ginger tea to ward away the cold from here," Lilia didn't want Jean to worry too much, so she hurriedly gave him an explanation.

After Lilia finished speaking, the man didn't say anything. But Jean stretched out his hand and c.a.r.e.s.sed her face. The man sighed with concern when he felt Lilia's icy skin.

In the next second, Jean lowered his head, his gaze was fixed on Alfred's brown coat. Then he casually took it from Lilia's hand. Jean turned around and handed the coat to Alfred. His gaze was cold and distant.

"Thank you very much for your coat, but this won't be necessary." Jean said firmly.

Alfred's gaze shifted towards him. He lowered his head to stare at the coat in the man's hand, hiding the glint of annoyance that crossed his eyes.

This time, Alfred didn't refuse and took his coat back from Jean's hand. Suddenly, a chuckle escaped his lips, and Alfred spoke in a relaxed tone.

"I heard that Young Master Jean manages everything related to his company every day. But I did not think that someone as busy as you would still have time to visit his wife."

Alfred's words made Lilia frown in an instant. She could faintly sense that what Alfred said sounded like a mockery. But after she studied the man's expression carefully, his face still looked indifferent, as if it was just an ordinary greeting.

Lilia opened her mouth and was about to defend Jean when the man put his arm around her shoulder. Before she could say anything, Jean pulled Lilia into his arms in a protective manner.

His dark blue eyes glowed with a cold light and his lips formed a faint smile. He looked at Alfred while speaking in a gentle tone.

"No matter how busy you are, you can't ignore your own woman. Young Master Alfred is still single and unmarried, so it must be impossible for you to understand."

Jean's words triggered a slight change in Alfred's expression. The man did not understand the feelings that were filling his heart. But at least Alfred knew that he still had an interest in Lilia.

He had arranged everything so that he could offer Lilia his coat in natural fashion. With the thin clothes that she was wearing right now, Lilia had no choice but to accept the coat he offered to protect her from the cold. But Jean's arrival messed up his plan.

Alfred kenw that his plan to make Jean doubt Lilia's loyalty wouldn't work once the man started talking about the importance of a woman in public.

The seventh son of the Ricardo Family was silent for a while, then he glanced at Lilia who was in Jean's arms. Alfred said with a thoughtful expression, "Looks like the rumors on the Internet are completely unbelievable!"

Alfred nodded at Jean with an inexplicable gaze. Before turning and leaving, he stopped beside the man, and his sharp eyes narrowed slightly.

"If I get the chance, I can't wait to ask Young Master Jean for advice," Alfred said bluntly.

"Oh? What advice does Young Master Alfred need from me?" Jean replied calmly.

"I'd like to ask for advice on what married life is like," the corner of Alfred's mouth lifted into a sarcastic smile.

Even though Jean heard Alfred's words, he still looked straight ahead with a flat expression. He seemed unfazed by the man's sarcasm. He then replied nonchalantly, "Since you are looking forward to it so much, Young Master Alfred should try it in person. Personal experience is much more effective than other people's stories, don't you think?" 

The smile on Alfred's lips froze slightly, his eyes darkened as he replied, "Haha, Young Master Jean has a point too. See you then!"

After saying that, he immediately left before Jean could answer. Alfred believed that with Jean's sharp mind, the son of the Widjaya Family must have realized his curiosity and interest in Lilia.

Of course, Alfred's appreciation to Lilia was only because of her character and personality that had captivated him. Whether she was married or not wasn't an obstacle for Alfred. He also wanted to know how strong they felt in this flashy and opportunistic society.

*****

Lilia had been silent from earlier, but she lifted her head from Jean's embrace after Alfred left. She met her husband's eyes and said with a smile, "I should probably discuss compensation for breach of contract with Harold."

Even though Lilia said it with a smile, her tone was full of determination. This showed that everything was made up. Lilia wouldn't give the slightest chance for people to doubt her love towards Jean.

Alfred's words and behavior just now completely spoiled his gentle and elegant style as a lecturer. The man deliberately put his coat on Lilia to provoke gossip, and the words he spoke to Jean were full of confrontation. His attitude was no longer the high-quality lecturer Lilia had met on campus before.

Jean hugged Lilia gently, then he straightened the collar of his coat. The man's expression was filled with confidence as he said, "This is your job. I don't mind whatever choice you make."

Lilia talked to Jean for a few more moments. Then she hurriedly returned to the changing room with her two assistants to change clothes.

Today, the scene where President Jean Widjaya personally came to pick up Lilia Pangestu on the set was also secretly spread by many people. From young to well-known artists, everyone in the entertainment industry immediately knew that the young master of the Widjaya family loved Lilia so much, even in public. This fact made them even more worried when dealing with Lilia Pangestu.

*****

Inside the changing room, Lilia changed her clothes with Dina and Rini's help. After she finished, she opened the door and immediately saw Harold waiting nearby.

Lilia raised her eyebrows slightly in surprise, but she got straight to the point. "How much is the penalty for canceling this perfume endors.e.m.e.nt?"

Hearing this, Harold stopped his hand from putting a cigarette to his lips. His tone rose slightly as he asked, "Are you planning to cancel this contract?"

Lilia nodded calmly. "Yes. Please check the contract, I will pay the liquidated compensation. Today's commercial filming will be given to them. From now on, as long as it is an endors.e.m.e.nt for Ricardo family products, I will not accept it,"

Lilia spoke candidly without any hesitation.
