My Supermodel Wife

Chapter 154 - Arriving In Jakarta

Lilia pulled her suitcase as she walked into the airport. Before entering, she stopped and looked back one last time. Lilia saw the figure of a handsome blonde haired man in the distance, watching her closely. She waved at Jean before walking inside.

The airport was full of travelers and people who had just arrived. Lilia headed to the terminal for domestic flight and looked around. After sharpening her eyes carefully, she found the figure of the petite woman she was looking for among the crowd.

Merry also saw Lilia and immediately waved her hand vigorously. Her face was beaming like that of a child going on vacation. Lilia chuckled as she approached Merry.

"Sorry, did I make you wait?" Lilia asked.

Merry shook her head hard, "No, I just came too! I'm really looking forward to this trip with you, Big Sis Lilia!" She said with a big smile

Lilia nodded, "Then, make sure you don't get separated from me, okay?"

The two of them completed all departure procedures and boarded their plane as scheduled. About an hour later, they arrived in Jakarta.

Just when Lilia was about to turn her cell phone back on, a call came in from Harold.

"Are you there yet?" Harold asked.

Lilia chuckled, "We just got off the plane. Your timing is just right, Harold."

Harold didn't reply immediately, but Lilia could hear the man lighting his cigarette. After a while, Harold finally spoke again.

"Louis called me last night. He said that the shooting location would be in a film studio on the outskirts of Jakarta. Louis has also booked a hotel room for you near the studio, so you don't have to travel too far." Harold explained.

"Okay." Lilia replied.

"If you don't like the hotel, you can ask Merry to find a hotel that is more comfortable for you. The agency will cover all the costs, so you don't have to worry. I'll try to come visit you this weekend." Harold continued.

Lilia massaged her forehead and sighed, "Harold, you know that I'm not fussy about hotels. If the hotel was on the outskirts of the city, then the area should be fairly quiet and not too congested. I'm sure I'll like it."

She believed that the film crew led by Louis must choose the best accommodation for the cast.

"If you are really busy, you don't need to force yourself to come here." Lilia added.

Harold was the best agent at Aphrodite Agency and he not only took care of Lilia, but also several other artists. The man was usually busy finding job offers for his artists and also arranging their schedules. Lilia knew Harold was much busier than the artists he managed.

Harold was silent for a moment, then he finally said, "Okay, take care of yourself there. If there is anything, you can call me."

"Of course. You also need to take care of your own health." Lilia replied before hanging up the phone.

*****

Lilia and Merry took their luggage, then headed to the pick-up area. The airport was much busier than the airport in Surabaya, as if to show off its status as the largest metropolitan city in Indonesia.

Louis told Lilia that he was going to send a staff member to pick them up. The staff chosen to pick her up was Louis's assistant, a man younger than Lilia. She saw the young man holding a sign bearing her name, so Lilia grabbed Merry and walked over to him.

The boyish-faced young man looked cute as he got amazed when he saw Lilia's beauty. After he realized, he hurried over to them.

"Hello, Miss Lilia. I am Mr. Louis's assistant, my name is Indra Sutiono." The young man introduced himself with a shy smile.

"Hello." Lilia smiled kindly to make Indra more comfortable, "You don't need to be too formal, just call me Sis Lilia, just like Merry."

Indra hesitated for a moment, but finally he said, "Very well, Sister Lilia. Please wait here for a moment, I'll get our car."

The young man disappeared among the crowd. About 15 minutes later, he returned while driving his car. After Lilia and Merry got inside, the car drove smoothly.

"Sis Lilia, Mr. Louis asked me to take you to the hotel so you can rest first." Indra explained as he glanced at Lilia through the rearview mirror, "Later at 4 pm a meeting of the film cast will be held. Is there something you want to do in your spare time?"

Lilia looked up, shifting her gaze from her cellphone's screen and shook her head, "No, not really. I prefer to rest at the hotel until the meeting time. Please take us there." She replied.

"Understood, Sis Lilia!" Indra replied with a big smile.

Indra drove very smoothly and stable. Thanks to that, Lilia was able to enjoy the city view to her heart's content. Even though she came from Surabaya which by chance was one of the metropolitan cities, there were so many skyscrapers here in Jakarta that made Lilia amazed.

The trip from the airport to the suburbs would take around 3 hours. They had stopped for a moment to eat something in the car.

Merry was so excited that she acted like a child taking on their first family vacation. Lilia's assistant pressed her face against the car window and kept staring outside.

After they drove for about two hours, Lilia's cell phone vibrated. She opened it and found another app message from her husband.

[Jean]: "Are you there yet?"

Reading that, Lilia automatically smiled broadly. She tucked a strand of hair behind her ear and began to type in her reply.

[Lilia]: "Yes. Louis' assistant came to get us. We'll be at the hotel in an hour. "

[Jean]: "Don't forget to eat, okay?"

Such simple words made Lilia's heart soar to the ninth sky. She continued to smile widely without being able to control her expression. Lilia put her cell phone back, because she intended to call Jean as soon as she arrived at the hotel.

At around 1pm, Indra stopped his car in front of Hotel Western, which was only 500 meters away from the film studio where they would be shooting. The hotel was quite cheap for a star hotel, but the facilities were no less complete.

Just as Lilia thought, the atmosphere around the hotel was so calm and peaceful. She felt as if she was not in Jakarta. There was also a square near the hotel often known as a shopping center for souvenirs and a night market.

Indra got out of the car, yawning and stretching his stiff body. Even though he was used to driving for a long distance like this, he still felt sleepy.

When Indra opened the door for Lilia, he said, "Sis Lilia, this is your hotel. We've booked the royal suite for you. The room is ready, so you can check it right away. Please rest first, then I'll pick you up again before the meeting time."

After Lilia thanked Indra, the young man immediately returned to the film studio. Lilia guessed that there were many things they needed to prepare for filming a movie.

Lilia and Merry then entered the hotel. The receptionist was very friendly and flexible, so all the necessary procedures had been completed in just five minutes. One of the hotel staff took them to a separate building in the hotel area, where they placed the royal suites.

The facilities in the room were very complete, from a small kitchen to a modern bathroom. The floor used wooden floors that felt cold but comfortable on the feet. Better yet, the window in the room showed a spectacular view of the hotel's garden. Lilia immediately fell in love with the room.. She hoped that Jean was here to enjoy this hotel room too.
