My Supermodel Wife

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. 𝗳𝗿𝐞ℯ𝙬𝗲𝗯n𝗼νel.𝒄𝑜𝘮

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.

Lilia never expected the day she would agree to this contract marriage on her own accord would finally come. Even though Lilia had not known Jean that long, all the care and warmth hidden behind the man's coldness slowly melted Lilia's frozen heart. She didn't know how Jean had managed to sneak into the crack in the door of her heart, but now she couldn't get him out of her heart.

On the other side, Jean's mind immediately went blank upon hearing those words. Lilia's firm voice showed her readiness to spend her entire life by Jean's side.

'Ah, finally.'

Jean slowly grasped the woman's hand, which looked tiny compared to his own. He wanted Lilia to be able to feel the turmoil of his emotions through their interlocked fingers. The warmth of the woman's hand creeped up his arm, and seeped into his chest.

'I finally got you.'

After years of searching and chasing Lilia's shadow, Jean finally managed to catch the woman. His love was overflowing right now and he wanted to immediately sign their marriage certificate before Lilia could escape his grasp again.

But Jean managed to restrain himself with difficulty. He had learned to respect Lilia's wishes.

"Kenny, stop the car." Jean?said hoarsely. Even though he was able to hold back and didn't immediately take Lilia to the registry office, he couldn't control his emotions right now.

Following Jean's order, Kenny pulled the car over and he hurriedly got out of the car. The assistant walked away. His gaze was filled with complex feelings. He was excited about the progress of his boss's love story, but he couldn't afford third-wheeling every time he drove for them both.

On the contrary, Jean didn't care about his assistant's inner conflict. One of his hands pulled Lilia's waist closer while lifting her chin with the other. Jean continued to observe Lilia's flushed face, looking for any sign of rejection. He didn't want to rush her and scare her.

As if answering the man's concern, Lilia smiled gently before closing her eyes. Seconds later, she could feel something lightly touching her lips, like a butterfly landing on a flower.

Lilia opened her eyes in surprise and stared at Jean. The man's face was so close that she could see every detail clearly. Jean chuckled when he saw Lilia's expression.

The man let their foreheads touch before saying, "That kiss was just the trial version. I will save the full version after you sign the marriage certificate."

Lilia frowned when she heard that. Jean made it sound like he was expecting something more from this situation!

"Then, you can't disappoint me." Lilia replied as if she didn't want to lose.

Jean laughed again and finally let Lilia go, "So, about that lunch." The man continued as if the romantic movement never happened.

Lilia hit his shoulder playfully, "You really ...!"

Meanwhile, Alfred received an SMS when he just returned to his office.

"Young Master, Big Madame will have her 80th birthday on the 5th of next month. Big Madame wants you to come home and attend her birthday party."

Alfred began to think after reading the message then replied, "Add Lilia Pangestu's name to the guest list. Also send all the information about her to me."

Two days had passed since the meeting with the Iswara Family.

Lilia didn't have time to see Jean again after accompanying him to lunch that day. She could only go home and shut herself there. Even so, Lilia couldn't stay still and let herself be swallowed up by sadness. She used all of her time to be productive. Primarily, Lilia chose to do various kinds of sports to keep her in shape as she prepared for Milan Fashion Week.

Time flew quickly. Lilia invited her best friend Vivi to have dinner together the day before she was scheduled to leave for Milan.

It didn't take long for Lilia to finish getting ready to leave. She also took the time to remind Daniel not to forget dinner before she left to meet Vivi at her office. Her brother returned home the day after the case was resolved and told Lilia what happened on campus.

Apparently, Lacy had returned Daniel's card to the young man and disappeared from the university. The young woman didn't say what she would do after dropping out of college, but Lilia wasn't too worried about her fate. She purposely gave her credit card to Lacy to help her in this situation.
