My Supermodel Wife

Chapter 316 - Living Together!

Lilia and Mellisa left the train station with Clifford and Leonard. The head of the bodyguard followed behind Lilia while Leonard walked beside Clifford.

They had only walked a few steps when Lilia saw her brother-in-law Andrew from the distance. The man was standing by the car smoking a cigarette. Lilia guessed that Andrew had heard from Jean and was waiting to pick them up here.

Andrew was lighting a cigarette when he saw a pair of sisters walking over to him. The tall and slender figures of the two women were striking. Then Andrew's gaze shifted to a pair of well-built men following behind them.

The man almost dropped his cigarette. What kind of combination was this?!

As they stopped in front of him, Andrew's gaze focused on the one person he didn't expect to be here. He glared at Leonard who looked so relaxed.

"Leo? Why did you come with them?" Andrew asked suspiciously.

His expression looked almost the same as Lilia's when she first saw Leonard. Andrew's face seemed to be asking, 'Has Mellisa committed another crime?'

Leonard then raised an eyebrow. He felt that the people around Mellisa didn't trust him at all. They seemed to suspect that he would get them into trouble. Leonard then replied innocently, "I just met them in Surabaya!"

Leonard deliberately hid his involvement with Mellisa from everyone. The woman had asked him to act like that so as not to cause confusion, especially for Lilia. She didn't want to worry her little sister.

"Oh, I see," Fortunately, Andrew didn't question Leonard any further. He turned his head towards his Mercedes-Benz with a frown. "I don't mean to sound harsh, but I don't think my car will be enough for all of us. What if..."

Before Andrew could make his proposal, Leonard immediately interrupted him. "Ah, I'm not coming with you,"

Everyone automatically turned their head towards him in surprise.

"You're not going with us?" Mellisa asked. Even though she tried to sound casual, Mellisa could not hide the disappointment in her voice.

"No, I still have to go back to the office. So you guys can go first without me," Leonard said bluntly, without embarrassment.

After hearing this, Andrew stopped being polite to him. He said goodbye to his classmates, then left with Lilia and the others.

On the curb of the train station, Leonard looked at the driving car with a meaningful gaze. After a while, he shook his head derisively, then hailed a taxi and headed back to the police station.

*****

In Jakarta, the place where Lilia and Mellisa were staying had been arranged by Jean, and they were going to the most elite apartment complex. The apartment was located on the outskirts of the city, away from its noise, very livable and also quiet. The complex was recently purchased by Jean Widjaya.

There were seven buildings, each of which had seven floors. Andrew explained that all of this had been purchased by the Widjaya family, so that Lilia could choose whichever apartment she wanted. All apartments were equipped with new furniture and were ready to live in.

The apartment that Lilia and Mellisa chose was filled with a variety of very modern and well-maintained furniture.

When Andrew walked past the door, he looked around the room with a look full of admiration. Then his gaze fell on his sister-in-law who was looking through the living room.

Andrew couldn't stop himself and joked, "Your husband really loves you, Lilia. I also have several apartment buildings under my name in Jakarta. You can actually occupy one of them, but he actually prepared all this for you. I don't even know when he bought this apartment,"

The man felt that he had underestimated Jean's abilities all this time. Who would have thought that the fourth son of the Widjaya Family loved his wife so much that he was willing to buy seven apartment buildings at once? Plus, that man decorated everything with the best furniture because he didn't know which building Lilia would choose! Was this the power of love?

When Lilia heard Andrew's joke, she just smiled and said nothing.

Then Lilia grabbed Mellisa and sat on the light gray sofa. She said enthusiastically, "For long as we are in Jakarta, let's stay here together! You don't mind, right?"

Mellisa looked at Lilia in surprise. Her eyes felt a little hot and she was touched when she heard the enthusiasm in Lilia's voice. Her heart which had been frozen for a long time now warmed up again because of Lilia's words.

Mellisa didn't hesitate anymore and immediately agreed, "Yes, I don't mind,"

Lilia was very happy and a big smile appeared on her beautiful face. She had even begun to imagine how she and Mellisa would live together in this apartment.

After looking through the apartment, Andrew walked back into the living room. He glanced at Clifford, who stood dedicatedly by the door like a guard dog.

Andrew walked over to the man and said, "The two of them are going to live here together, then what about you? I just saw the living room around here..."

Clifford looked at Andrew calmly and replied, "No need, my apartment is on the sixth floor, one floor below this place,"

Andrew raised an eyebrow in surprise. Was this bodyguard so rich that he could buy a one-story apartment for himself? How much did Jean pay his bodyguard?!

Seeing Andrew's startled expression, Clifford hastily added, "Ah, this was all arranged by Young Master Jean,"

Andrew nodded understandingly and asked no more questions. He sat on the sofa before looking at Mellisa. Andrew called out to her, "Mellisa, neither of us are strangers. I think there are a few things you should know,"

Mellisa turned away from Lilia and looked at Andrew. Her eyes flashed with curiosity. "Brother Andrew, what do you mean?" she asked.

Even though Mellisa used to call him that when they were kids, now things felt different. Andrew felt a little strange and alienated by time.

Andrew sighed softly. His complex thoughts itched him to smoke. Unconsciously, Andrew rubbed the thumb and index finger of his right hand. It was a gesture he used to make whenever he was thinking about a difficult problem.

While Andrew was looking for the right words to convey this news to Mellisa, a cigarette box was thrown on the sofa beside him. The man looked up and saw that Mellisa had started smoking her cigarette.

Andrew stared at the cigarette box, frowning. Then finally he picked up the box and lit a cigarette. He couldn't stop himself and said to Lilia, "You let your sister smoke like this and don't care?"

These types of cigarettes were for heavy smokers and were definitely not suitable for women.

But Lilia just smiled, and replied casually, "Brother Andrew, aren't you smoking too? Are you trying to control what she can and can't do?"

Andrew couldn't argue with Lilia's words. He threw the cigarette box back at Mellisa before pulling one from his trouser pocket. Andrew lit the cigarette and smoked hard.

Not long after, he exhaled the cigarette smoke and turned to Mellisa.. Andrew hesitated for a moment before he finally opened his mouth. "Did you know that Mike investigated the cause of your death?"
