My Supermodel Wife

Before Dennis turned around, he saw Florence at the next table. He quickly stepped forward and greeted her respectfully.

Now that it was almost five o'clock, the banquet was about to start. Lilia raised her eyes and swept around the banquet hall, then furrowed her brows suspiciously. Why hadn't Jean and her future brother-in-law come?!​​

The two of them said they had something to take care of, so they left at three o'clock in the afternoon.

This banquet had already started, would it be too late by the time they got back?

Lilia couldn't hold this thought silently, but Mellisa still looked calm beside her. Even so, the corners of her lips slightly lowered and her line of sight continued to stare at the entrance, obviously she was also anxious for Leonard's arrival.

As everyone knew, behind them sat the Iron Lady of Yogyakarta. However, people did not realize that Florence's face had become a little gloomy since 5 minutes ago ...

Alfred was seen sitting beside her. The grandson poured a glass of water calmly, and while the outsiders were not paying attention, he approached and whispered, "Are you upset?"

Florence's eyes glowed on her face, and the wrinkles at the corners of her mouth scrunched up. "You bastard, did you know that she was married long ago?"

"No, I've only found out about it just a month ago," Alfred answered calmly.

Florence snorted softly, the expression on her face showed dissatisfaction that was rarely seen. "If you knew, why didn't you tell Grandma? I wouldn't have said those things in front of Caleb!"

Alfred received Florence's cynical gaze, he hastily pushed the glass of water to her. "Grandma needn't be angry. Do you know who she married?"

Florence held her breath, she raised her hand and pressed her water glass to her lips. Then  she narrowed her eyes. "Who is he?"

Alfred rubbed his fingertips, his eyes lowered faintly. "The Widjaya family from Surabaya."

Followed by a loud sound, Florence dropped the glass in her hand to the floor.

Fortunately, the sound in the hall was extremely noisy at this time and the sound of a broken porcelain glass only caught the attention of a few people.

The maid quickly came over to clean the broken glass. After they left, Florence looked at Alfred seriously. "Is it true?"

The man didn't answer, but he nodded softly in response.

Seeing this, there was a melancholy glow in Florence's eyes. She took a sip of the water that had just been delivered and said inexplicably, "This child is actually the Widjaya family's daughter-in-law."

The eyes of the grandmother and grandson met again. The old woman sighed and looked around warily. When she lowered her head and pretended to fix her dress, she warned, "Alfred, I won't forbid anything you want to do, but you must not make another fatal mistake."

"Our current family situation doesn't allow you to make mistakes, you also have to promise grandma that whatever problem will happen to the family, the Widjaya will not influence the Mayer family."

"Don't think our good relationship with the Mayer family means they are not watching us. If they turn us into enemies, the Ricardos will surely suffer."

Florence had seen many things in her life, and so her mind was as sharp as ever.

If it weren't for the war from that year and her story of becoming the first female fighter pilot as an amazing act of saving a country, the Ricardo family would have been overthrown in those difficult times.

Aristocratic families weren't built overnight!

She was a brave and wise old woman, if she didn't have the talent, how could she keep the Ricardo family stable in times of trouble?

Today, in this peaceful and prosperous world, the achievements of those years were praiseworthy. However, only this old woman knew the real reason she had to commit her reckless act that year.

His grandmother's reminder made Alfred's eyes calm a little.

The man then pursed his lips while nodding slowly and respectfully. "Grandma, don't worry, I won't act rashly."

Seeing this, Florence's expression diminished a lot. Then she added, "That's great! By the way, you should also pay more attention to the Hartanto family. I heard that they tried to take over Surabaya a while ago. I know you've sent someone to watch over the family, but don't let them create another storm..."

Alfred's eyes were filled with admiration as he said, "Their family has been experiencing internal and external problems recently. Even if they want to stir a problem, they won't have the chance to win anyway. I have negotiated a cooperation with a member of the Hartanto family. Currently, their position in the family is still uncertain,"

Florence didn't know much about the Hartanto family. After hearing Alfred's explanation, she smiled with satisfaction. "Since you have understood this in your heart, I'm really happy. As for that girl, what are your plans?"

Alfred's expression remained unchanged. "Grandma, you don't have to worry about this. At least I won't really hurt her."

Hearing an answer like this, Florence thought about it, but she still anxiously advised, "Since she is a member of the Widjaya family, you have to be careful. They're wolves preying on people and they'll leave no bones. Remember not to get carried away with emotions!"

She believed in her most skilled grandson.

The Ricardo family didn't have a capable successor, Florence couldn't lose this grandson.

Alfred wanted to say something more, but Dennis had already stepped onto the front stage with the microphone in hand, and the two of them immediately ended their topic.

... 

The moment Dennis got onto the stage, the noise throughout the banquet hall instantly died down.

The people present were all distinguished guests, even though they were not as powerful as the Mayer family, they still had influence in the country.

Curious about the meaning of this banquet, they all fell silent as they looked at the famous diplomat on stage and waited for his speech.

Dennis stood in front of the stage. His eyes were sharp and energetic. He wore a tight suit, like the spokesperson at diplomatic events.

After he calmed down, he spoke earnestly, "Good evening everyone, thank you for taking the time out of your busy schedule to come to the Mayer family banquet."

His words were greeted by loud applause. Dennis then paused for a moment then continued, "I'm sure all of you still don't know much about the theme of our banquet today. So before starting this event, let me introduce the two stars tonight." 

After that, Dennis stretched his hand towards the main table of the banquet.

He looked at Lilia and Mellisa at the main table with a gentle expression. This action made the guests present look at the two of them as they were standing gracefully.

These girls wore similar clothes, looking beautiful and had slim and slender builds. Many people had also recognized Lilia's identity.

She had many shows on screen, no wonder they felt familiar with her. It just so happened that people from the entertainment industry were present at this banquet, so of course they would recognize Lilia more or less.

Someone whispered, "That beautiful girl looks like a celebrity."

"Where did I see her before? Her face looks familiar, let me check."

"Her name is Lilia and I know her. She has always been on the most popular search on social media. Some time ago, someone said that she came from a humble background, so why did she suddenly appear at the Mayer family's house today?"

By the time this introduction was taking place, the guests could only whisper in small talk.

It's just that, they were all confused, how could Lilia the supermodel suddenly appear and sit at the main table of the Mayer family?!

At this time, under the curious gazes of the guests, Lilia and Mellisa stepped onto the stage gracefully.
