My Supermodel Wife

Chapter 301 - Lia’s Coffee Shop

Lilia rubbed her eyes and read the writing over and over. The word 'Mrs Widjaya' written in the message made her heart pound. A mixture of panic, shock, and other indescribable feelings roiled in her heart.

After taking a deep breath, Lilia took a picture of the message and sent it to Jean via the Other app. She realized that she was so full of enthusiasm, but she couldn't stop thinking that the man was here too.

[Lilia]: "Jean, did you write this?"

She was still standing by the wall and waiting, but the man did not respond to her message. Lilia sighed irritably before closing her phone. She glanced at the other sticky notes, but she had lost interest in reading the rest of the messages.

When the waitress arrived with coffee, Lilia returned to her table in front of the window. As she looked around, she realized that she was the only visitor left on the first floor. Lilia didn't know when the other visitors left this cafe.

However, she could hear talking voices from the second floor. There seemed to be several visitors having a meeting there. Sometimes, Lilia could hear warm chatting.

As time went on, the sky outside the window seemed to dissolve. Lilia looked at the small town with a pensive expression. No matter how long she waited, the cellphone in her hand was always silent. She guessed that Jean might be busy with various meetings and piles of documents.

Lilai finished the rest of the coffee in her cup, then checked her watch. She planned to pay for the coffee and return to the hotel immediately. Just as Lilia got up from her chair, there was the sound of footsteps descending the wooden stairs.

Someone said, "President Jean, we'll determine the plan first, then I'll get someone to make a new copy. I'll send it to you afterwards,"

"Yes, I will leave this matter to you," The low, magnetic voice made Lilia's body freeze.

She slowly turned her head back to see the people descending from the upper floor. A total of five men appeared from the stairs. The three men who got off first were both wearing leather suits and shoes. The three of them carried computer bags in hand while smiling at each other. Even as they descended the stairs, they continued to turn around to talk to the man behind them.

The men walked down to the first floor. One of the three men turned around and shook hands with the man behind him. The leader of the three then said, "Then we'll be back first. Thank you for your support, President Jean and Mr. Kenny,"

Lilia hadn't seen Kenny in a long time, and now the man was standing behind Jean. However, Lilia couldn't move from where she was standing. Even after the three men had left the cafe, Lilia was still trying to process the scene before her. She could only stare blankly at the mature and handsome man standing in front of her.

He was wearing a dark suit that looked fabulous and an ink-colored shirt that matched his temperament. The top few buttons on his shirt were deliberately opened, giving him a relaxed impression.

For a moment, no one spoke in the cafe. The silence that enveloped them was broken by the voices of the three men from outside the cafe's door.

"President Jean is truly someone who thinks out of the box. Who would have thought that he would ask us to meet in a small town in Bekasi to discuss the development plan for Arum Village? I'm sure there is something we can learn in this small town!"

Upon hearing that, Kenny coughed awkwardly. He wanted to hurry out and explain to the three men that they were so wrong! Jean arranged a meeting in this town just so he could meet his wife soon! The man spoiled his wife too much!

Of course, he didn't dare say that blatantly in front of Jean. Kenny greeted Lilia with a brief nod before hurriedly picking up his bag and leaving the cafe. He pushed open the cafe door, causing the sign that read 'Close' to swing gently. Just at that moment, a strong wind blew past and blew the wind chimes outside the door.

The jingling sound of wind chimes startled Lilia and brought her back to the real world. She blinked as she slowly approached Jean. She suddenly thought about what Jean had told her before.

"There must be a way for you to keep a career while building a family together,"

When Jean said that, did that guy mean to move his work near to wherever Lilia was?

When Jean knew that Lilia was coming to Bekasi, he deliberately brought his business partner to discuss work here. The man did not delay his work, but he still used his method to narrow the distance between each other.

Lilia's eyes glowed with a faint light, as if the Milky Way had fallen into the sky. She stopped in front of the man and smiled broadly.

Lilia whispered, "I miss you so much," answering the question on the sticky notes Jean had left.

Maybe others would call them too much or blinded by their feelings. However, when it came to love, being apart from the loved one even for just a second felt like three summers.

The smile on the man's lips gradually deepened. There were stars floating in his dark eyes. He raised his wide palms and touched his wife's face. "I've made you wait for a long time," Jean muttered.

Lilia tilted her head. What did Jean mean by making her wait? Was it because the man took so long to have a meeting on the second floor before going downstairs? Or was it because he didn't reply to Lilia's message? Maybe both!

Lilia couldn't stop herself and stepped forward, wanting to throw herself into the man's embrace. But there were two cafe staff at the reservation table behind Jean who covered their mouths and studied her with shining eyes. Their presence made Lilia somewhat hesitant.

Jean followed Lilia's gaze and frowned. One of the staff immediately understood the meaning of Jean's view.

The staff smiled and said, "President, the loading and unloading trucks have come here. Excuse me, I'll go to the backyard first,"

After telling him that, the two of them hurried away.

Once they were left alone, the man didn't give Lilia a chance to hesitate anymore. Jean stretched out his hand and pulled the woman into his arms. He rubbed Lilia's back gently, as if to calm her down.

Jean sighed before whispering, "I've been very busy lately, but today is the last. I've left the rest to Kenny. That way, I can be with you until the end of your shoot,"

When she heard that, Lilia's body froze in Jean's embrace. She could only nod without saying a word.

After a while, Lilia recovered from her shock and changed the subject. She looked around the cafe asking, "Is this your coffee shop?"

Lia Coffee Shop. It was not difficult to guess where the name of the shop came from. Only Jean would use that nickname. Lilia also vaguely remembered that there was also a Lia Coffee Shop downstairs at the Genesis Company office.

The man's large palm gently stroked Lilia's hair. "Lia Coffee Shop is one of the businesses owned by the Widjaya Family.. There are a total of 77 cafes throughout Indonesia," Jean's voice was tinged with pride.
