My Supermodel Wife

Chapter 294 - He Looks Happy

William ignored the look of disgust on Lilia's face and continued walking over with determination. But before he could get close, Dina and Clifford immediately got in his way. The two of them met William's gaze with the same disdainful look as their master.

The actors and film crew who were gossiping about Lilia now looked at each other. They lowered their heads before walking into the hotel lobby silently. None of them wanted to interfere with the affairs of the main players like Lilia and William.

William was still in costume for the shoot. He watched the people come inside with a cold gaze, then he looked at Lilia.

"Lili, are yo ..." William began to speak in a soft voice, but his efforts were in vain.

"Let's go." Lilia ignored William and walked towards the hotel lobby. She acted as if the man wasn't even there.

Dina glanced at William with a satisfied look, then she hurriedly followed behind Lilia. That kind of insolent man should just be ignored! How dare he still approach Lilia after heartlessly dumping her three years ago!

Seeing this, William frowned and said from behind Lilia, "Is the marriage certificate you posted on social media yesterday real? Or is it just a fake that you use to avoid people's suspicion?"

Lilia had originally intended to ignore William no matter what the man said. But those words just now made Lilia slow down. She turned her head and glanced at the man. The sympathetic gaze that Lilia gave him made William frown.

"William, if you have a brain, you must know that marital status is very important to an artist. I've taken the initiative to expose my own marital status. Do you think I'm just kidding about this kind of thing?" Lilia replied scathingly.

William was stunned and could not reply to her words. He could only stare at Lilia's disappearing figure behind the lobby's door. The man didn't say a word, but within his wide sleeves, his hands were tightly clenched. His nails sank deep into his palms, but William barely noticed the pain.

Suddenly, there was the sound of footsteps approaching from behind him. William immediately erased his gloomy expression before turning around.

Shirley, who had just finished filming her part, stopped beside William. She followed his line of sight before saying in a low voice, "Now Lilia already has the full support of the young master of the Widjaya Family. Even if you try to persuade her to come back to you and lure her with affection, she definitely won't want to take the bait."

William narrowed his eyes at Shirley. The corner of his mouth lifted into a sneer. "Do you think you're better than me? I'm just telling you to do one thing. Spread rumors about Lilia. But look where it goes now! No wonder your connections and reputation in the entertainment world have been so bad these days." William replied fiercely.

"William, you ...!"

Shirley glared at him, but William walked away without looking at her. The actress could only stomp her feet in anger. She swore that she would not let the man get away after humiliating her.

Yesterday, when Shirley opened Lilia's social media account, she immediately recognized the man in the photo as Jean Widjaya. Since then, Shirley's hatred for Lilia had grown even more. Why could Lilia monopolize such a perfect man for herself? Shirley was not willing to take this for granted!

When Lilia arrived at her room, the first thing she did was wash her face. She felt tired and dirty after traveling for a long time. As Lilia returned to the sitting room with a fresher face, she saw her two assistants standing in the corner. The faces of the two young women looked grim and dissatisfied.

Lilia took turns looking at Dina and Rini with an amused expression. "What's the matter with the two of you? Why are your faces looking that gloomy?"

Dina glanced at Rini and nudged her arm. She quietly gestured for her companion to speak.

Rini gave a small cough before starting to speak in an uncomfortable tone. "Sis Lilia, Shirley and the other actors took it too far. If this continues, everyone will distance themselves from you."

Lilia smiled slightly when she heard that. To be honest, she didn't care if she was ostracized by the other crew. Lilia's only regret was that she didn't get to repay Shirley's 'kindness'. The film queen had gone to great lengths to discredit her while she wasn't here. Shouldn't she reward a hard worker like Shirley?

Lilia sat on the sofa and took the washed apples from the plate on the table. After taking a bite of the apple, she said, "Being isolated can also reduce some problems to some extent. If Shirley likes to talk about me, then just let her talk! As long as she doesn't bother you two, I don't care what she does."

Dina and Rini were still a little angry, but their anger faded after seeing a big smile on Lilia's beautiful face. The two of them exchanged glances for a moment before they nodded.

"Sis Lilia, we will follow your words!"

Forty minutes later, Harold finally arrived at Lilia's hotel. When he stood outside Lilia's room and knocked on the door, the model had just finished her conversation with Louis. Tonight, Lilia would return to work and immediately shoot three night scenes at once. She had prepared herself not to sleep the whole night.

When the doorbell rang, Lilia got up to open the door. The two assistants hadn't been back since earlier. Lilia didn't know exactly what they were doing, but she guessed that the two of them must be busy with various preparations.

"Ah, Harold. Come in!" Lilia greeted the man standing in the hallway with a big smile.

She stepped away from the door and let Harold walk in. Lilia stole a glance at the guy. It could be just her feeling, but she felt Harold's face looked tired and depressed. Had he been really busy lately?

After entering the room, Harold threw his suitcase into a corner. Then he threw himself onto the single sofa without asking the room owner's permission. Harold didn't say anything, but he looked very tired with one hand continuing to massage his forehead.

Lilia gave him a glass of water. "Why did you come to Magetan today?" she asked curiously.

Harold sighed softly and stared at her. It'd been quite a while since they last met. It looked like Lilia was living well. Her skin looked reddish and smooth. Her face had a unique beauty. Lilia looked the same as before, but there was something different about her.

Though Lilia wore a black sweater that covered her neck, she still couldn't hide some fading traces on there.

This was the first time Harold had seen these things in her. Lilia and Jean seemed very happy.

Harold's mind was chaotic, but his flat face did not reveal what was in his heart. He drank the contents of his glass before saying, "I heard that your relationship with the film crew has not been peaceful these days?"

Lilia wasn't surprised to hear Harold bring up the matter. She thought that maybe Dina and Rini told him. After working with Harold for many years, Lilia never hid work-related matters from her manager.

Lilia nodded and replied, "I heard some issues too, but I just came back here. I don't know about the details."

"Just got back? Where did you go?" Harold didn't know what Lilia's activities were like lately. He thought that Lilia was busy filming in Magetan.. Harold scolded Dina and Rini in his heart. Why didn't the two assistants report this to him?!
