My Supermodel Wife

Lilia hung up the phone and went over to the car. She stopped beside the opened car's window where she could clearly see Jean's face.

"How do you know I'm here? Are you spying on me?" Lilia asked in a joking tone.​​

The man's cold expression melted away and Jean smiled faintly when he heard her joke, "Is your business finished?"

Lilia nodded, her face filled with pride, "Yep, the case is over. The student and her parents will not cause any more problems."

"Then get in the car." Jean opened the car's door for her.

Lilia walked in and sat down beside Jean. The woman acted as if she was the owner of the car. As soon as the car's door closed, Kenny started driving the car.

Lilia glanced at the man beside her. Why would the president of the biggest real estate company in town just come to pick her up? Didn't he have other, more important pursuits?

"Jean, did something happen? Shouldn't you be in the office right now?" Lilia asked carefully.

Kenny nodded excitedly in his driver seat. He wanted Lilia to break Jean's habit of leaving his job just to meet his fiancée. His head began to ache at the thought of the pile of work waiting for them in the office. However, Kenny did not dare to say that and could only pray that Lilia would understand his suffering.

Jean turned to Lilia, a faint irritation appeared in his eyes, "I don't happen to be busy, so I'm going to take you out to lunch. Don't you like going out to eat with me?"

Lilia frowned as suspicion arose in her mind. The man wanted to take her out to lunch, but Jean didn't call her until she separated from Alfred and Daniel. Plus, that man was waiting for her near the restaurant, as if Jean knew Lilia had already had lunch.

"Jean, have you been waiting for me until I finished lunch?" Lilia voiced her suspicions.

"…Of course not." It took Jean a moment to answer. He didn't think Lilia could guess so accurately.

Kenny was also surprised when he heard that. Jean deliberately forbade Kenny from telling Lilia that his boss also came to campus with him. The assistant knew that Jean intended to take Lilia to eat as soon as her business on campus was over. However, they saw Lilia going to a restaurant with Alfred and Daniel.

Kenny thought that Jean would change his mind and return to the office, but the boss was waiting patiently. They sat in awkward silence in the car for an hour until Lilia parted ways with the two people. At times like this, Kenny regretted his fate as Jean's assistant.

Lilia was not aware of the inner conflict Kenny was currently experiencing. Jean's answer was enough to tell her that this man had been waiting for her all this time. She felt guilty, but also touched.

"Hmm, then, what do you want for lunch? I will accompany you to eat." Lilia knew she shouldn't eat too much before Milan Fashion Week, but she wanted to repay Jean's favor. Her fiancé's behavior was getting more and more adorable.

Jean looked at the woman with suspicion. After a moment, he could see the guilt on Lilia's face, "Hmm ..." Jean just smiled slightly without answering. That smile made his attraction as a grown man radiate even stronger.

Lilia spent a few seconds admiring Jean's appearance before finally coming back to her senses. She cleared her throat and protested, "Don't just smile! Where do you want to eat for lunch?"

Instead of answering, Jean reached out and touched Lilia's flushed cheek, "Do you feel guilty for eating first?" The temptation in his words was provocative.

Lilia hurriedly moved away before shaking her head vigorously, "What are you talking about? I'm just not full yet!"

"You want to know what you can do to get rid of your guilt?" Jean continued as if Lilia didn't say anything.

"Listen to my words!" Lilia protested. 

Jean ignored her protests and returned to stroking her cheek with his thumb,"It's easy to correct your mistakes, really."

"...What should I do?" Lilia gave in to her curiosity.

Jean's lips curled into a triumphant smile, "It is enough with just signing a marriage certificate."

Hearing the man's answer, Lilia stared blankly at Jean.

She never thought that Jean would suddenly talk about their marriage certificate. Her mind was in chaos and she didn't know how to react. All this time Lilia had always avoided the topic because it reminded her that her parents sold her for profit. At first Lilia thought that she hated this contract marriage, but now her mind had changed.

When Lilia finally recovered from her shock, she pretended to sulk, "Hmm, I owe you a lunch, and you are asking me to pay it by marrying you? That doesn't sound fair to me at all."

"You think so?" Jean raised an eyebrow, "To me, that means the opportunity to have lunch with you is very valuable. Don't you agree?"

Lilia stopped pretending and could only laugh at his answer. This man was getting better at sweet-talking!

Jean smiled too when he heard her clear laughter. He felt good for making his fiancée laugh. Satisfied with laughter, Lilia cleared her throat and straightened up, "Regarding the letter, I can only promise you one thing." She said.

"What is that?" Jean sensed that Lilia was talking seriously right now.

"After I return from Milan, I will sign our marriage certificate."

Lilia observed Jean's expression as she said that. For a moment there was no change in the man's face, but then his expression turned to surprise, disbelief, and finally joy.
