My Supermodel Wife

Hearing Chris's serious words, Alex nodded slightly. "Yes, I have heard about it."

Alex did not continue this conversation, he deliberately changed the subject, "How many did they invite? The guests are still few,"​​

Even though Chris' body was injured, it didn't mean he couldn't think. Seeing Alex's intention not to discuss the stabbing case any further, Chris gave a cold snort and took another sip of wine. 

"The invitation was too sudden. I got it when Alan happened to visit me at the hospital for a consultation. But where is that boy? The show is about to start but he hasn't appeared yet, what kind of mystery does he want to play?"

While Chris was busy grumbling, the door opened again. The people who entered this time made Lilia frown.

The first person to enter was Sara Hartanto!

Seeing her face, Lilia immediately remembered the previous incident.

However, Lilia's eyes fell directly to the two girls standing behind Sara. The two of them walked in with worried faces. They were Vivi and Rachel. 

When the two of them saw Lilia, their stiff and worried expressions instantly relaxed.

Lilia then stood up and approached her two best friends. Vivi then whispered in Lilia's ear in a gloomy tone, "I've refused to come, but Tom insisted that we all attend this family dinner because we both came to your banquet. So he wanted us to come to his engagement banquet too. But isn't this a little surprising? Tom and Sasha, who could have thought?"

Vivi parted ways with Lilia this afternoon. After separating, she got a call from Tom just before she came home from work about 1 hour later.

She repeatedly refused his invitation, but Tom still insisted. He said would send the address of his mansion after hanging up the phone.

Even though she refused, Vivi was really curious. Was it really Tom who'd be engaged to Sasha? She must see it herself!

Long story short, before she left with Rachel, they asked Lilia if she was coming. When the two of them found out that Lilia would be there, they immediately left together.

While Vivi and Lilia were chatting, Rachel looked around the room as she stood near the door. She was surprised when she saw Alan sitting in the corner with an indifferent expression.

She did not expect that Alan would be here, the blazing flames immediately filled the woman's eyes.

This afternoon, Alan took her to their coworker's company to discuss their advertising project. Once there, Rachel realized that the boss of the company turned out to be Alan's old friend. During their meeting, the man was just chatting casually and Rachel just stood behind him the entire time.

Indeed, she was a little worried and anxious when Alan invited her, but she felt useless. 

Rachel's mind drifted a little, except when she saw Alan's figure in this room. Anxiety instantly filled her heart.

Lilia called her twice but Rachel didn't hear her at all.

Vivi finally hit her softly and pulled her out of her daze. "Hey, are you okay?"

She thought her friend was having a panic attack when she saw the scene of this room. After all, the people sitting in this room were the ruling elites of Surabaya and even Indonesia!

With their 'nobody' identities, the two of them were the least valued people in this room.

However, this wasn't the first time they had experienced something like this. When she visited the Lakeside Villa with Rachel before, they still ate the same food and drank the same drinks as them! Only difference was they didn't talk too much.

Vivi looked at Rachel anxiously, Lilia also started to get scared when she saw her. So she stepped forward and embraced her friends before inviting them to sit on the sofa. While walking, Lilia tried to comfort them by saying. "Don't think too much, just be your normal self and everything will be fine."

"What Lilia said is true, didn't we attend her marriage before? Today is no different from that day, especially since it was just a dinner banquet. You don't have to worry too much like that," Vivi said to Rachel.

When the three of them sat together, they chatted and laughed together. Vivi and Rachel's tensions and anxiety quickly faded away. In the middle of their chat, Lilia glanced sideways to see Sara who was standing in front of Chris and Alan.

Sara seemed to be saying something in a low voice, while Chris and Alan listened with their heads down. 

Sara's presence was probably Sasha's idea.

However, Sasha and Tom had yet to appear in this room. This made many questions flood Lilia's mind, making her wonder of what would happen in a moment.

Sasha should have understood the dire situation that happened in the Hartanto family. And yet she still invited Sara tonight. What did Sasha actually plan by inviting her here?

...….

About ten minutes later, everyone in the room was chatting with each other.

At this time, Lilia always watched Sara's movements closely. After speaking with Chris and Alan, she sat in a corner alone. While lowering her head, she enjoyed the wine she drank without speaking a word.

Her appearance was very different from the arrogant nature she was known for in the entertainment industry.

Lilia tried to get rid of unnecessary thoughts and returned to having a happy chat with her two best friends. Chuckling, she handed Vivi and Rachel the fruit plate. Suddenly, the door to the room opened wide and the person walking in was Tom in a formal suit.

Behind him was a figure that caught Lilia's attention— Sasha, the bride-to-be figure who would celebrate her engagement day tomorrow.

The evening dress that Sasha was wearing tonight looked very elegant. This beautiful woman was seen wearing  a black off-shoulder dress that really accentuated her slender arms. Her red lipstick and flowing black hair added a sense of elegance and maturity.

Tom walked in front holding Sasha in his arms, he grinned as he opened the door. "Sorry we're late!" His face looked very happy. 

After announcing his presence, he turned around and pulled Sasha to his side. Under the spotlight, everyone could see that he and Sasha were glued to each other.

Lilia looked at Sasha who was looking elegant today, but her character was completely the opposite of her appearance. She didn't know why but every time she saw her or heard her name, the incident at the restaurant always returned to her mind.

Lilia looked at Tom and Sasha walking into the room together, her eyes were immediately fixed on the suit that Tom was wearing.

She immediately recognized that the suit Tom was wearing was the same as her husband! When thinking about this, Lilia inadvertently looked straight at Jean.

Jean noticed his wife's gaze even if she wasn't with him now. The man was always watching Lilia from a distance. A smile of joy was faintly visible on his handsome face.

At this time, everyone present had different thoughts.

Tom smiled in all directions, the guests could see how happy he was that night.

He moved to the side and gently patted Sasha's upper arm then said with a proud tone, "My future wife, Sasha!"
