My Supermodel Wife

Chapter 389 - Lilia Pangestu’s Background

Hearing the staff's exclamation, Harold's hand that was gripping a cigarette suddenly tightened. He automatically turned his head towards Lilia while taking out his cellphone.

Judging from Lilia's calm expression, the model didn't seem surprised. Harold lowered his head and secretly laughed at himself. Why was he so worried if the person he was worried about was calm?

People on the internet always watched everything with eagle-sharp eyes. Even if Jean didn't show his face in the live broadcast earlier, his identity would still be revealed one day. It couldn't be helped since Jean was still with Lilia.

Not to mention that Lilia also showed the photo of the wall on the second floor. Even though Lilia was just walking past it, several people had already managed to take screenshots. It wasn't difficult to find out Jean's identity from the photos.

Harold glanced at the hot topic, then he put his cell phone on the table and tapped the screen. "What are you going to do about this, Lilia? Are you going to respond? Or are you going to deny it?" Harold asked.

Lilia followed her movements and looked at the cellphone screen. But after a few seconds, she smiled. "It's not a big deal, there's no need to deny it. Whatever their opinion, this is my private life. I don't think I have to explain anything to the public,"

Lilia herself intended to provide clues about Jean's identity as her husband. Since someone had found the truth, it was enough for Lilia.

"Dammit! Mr. Harold, someone is trying to tarnish Miss Lilia's reputation!"

Lilia had just finished talking when one of the staff members hastily handed her cell phone to Harold.

"Look, that's what I meant!" The staff member pointed to her cell phone's screen.

Someone was trying to attack Lilia.

The staff's words immediately caused everyone to focus on their respective cell phone's screens. They quickly found a hot topic called 'The Background of Lilia Pangestu'.

The person who initiated the topic, in a confident writing style, explained how ordinary Lilia's family background was. The model never even finished college. After entering the entertainment world, Lilia launched her career by sleeping with multiple tycoons and important figures.

It was said that Lilia was able to marry a young master from a rich family because of her cunning trick in using her beauty. At the party that the Genesis Company held, Lilia won the heart of the Widjaya Family's fourth son in a shameless way.

This hot topic continued to climb the rankings with immense popularity. In just a few seconds, this topic had spread across the internet like wildfires.

Indeed, Lilia had been a humble person ever since entering the entertainment world. She never spoke about her family background in public. Now the identity of the fourth son of the Widjaya family in Surabaya had been revealed. People who were interested began to be curious about Lilia's family background.

Lilia's luck in being able to marry a young master from a rich family already made many people jealous. No wonder a topic like this immediately caught everyone's attention. It seemed as if Lilia's haters had justification to tarnish the flawless model's reputation.

"Damn, who is this person? They wrote so many details, as if they are an insider!" Dylan cursed as he opened the comments section and read it.

The content of the comments made Dylan so angry that he wanted to slam down his own phone. Unfortunately, there were plenty of people who believed this nonsense writing. Still, most of them were very interested in Lilia's family background.

Harold's expression turned grim. After glancing at it for a few seconds, he threw the phone back at the staff. Harold squeezed his cigarette butt and got up, putting on his jacket.

"Let's go back to the office!" Harold ordered the staff.

Then he turned his head towards Lilia.

"I'll tell Joe to review the situation. I'll also have him check the IP address of the topic's author. I want to see who is brave enough to tarnish your reputation!" Harold said angrily.

The rest of the staff might not have known, but Harold did. Not a single piece of gossip about Lilia's family situation on the internet was true. Even if the Pangestu Family's eldest daughter didn't come from a rich family like the Widjaya Family, Lilia was still a young lady from an upper middle class family. People had no right to describe her as a shameless poor girl.

The staff answered Harold and hurried to his feet. Just as Harold was about to come out of the dining room, he looked back at Lilia who was still calm.

"Lilia, do you want to reveal your parents too? I'm sure the Agency will consider announcing your family background if you are willing," Harold offered.

Of course, the parents he meant were Robert and Sylvia.

When Harold said those words, he was shocked as Lilia suddenly laughed. The model shook her head and said casually, "I have nothing to do with the Pangestu Family!"

Harold stood stunned for a few seconds, trying to process the meaning of Lilia's words. Finally, he gave up and asked, "What do you mean?"

How could she have nothing to do with the Pangestu Family!? Why did Lilia suddenly say that? What, exactly, happened to her family?

There were so many questions filling Harold's mind. He wanted to ask more questions, but he was afraid that he would be too presumptuous about it. Harold could vaguely see the ridicule in Lilia's eyes, yet he didn't understand what that meant.

If Lilia had nothing to do with the Pangestu Family anymore, then which family was Lilia related to? This was still an unanswered question. Until Harold left Lakeside Villa, he received no reply from Lilia.

On the Internet, 'Lilia Pangestu's Background' became the hottest topic of discussion. They not only discussed the beginning of Lilia's relationship with Jean, but all kinds of things about Lilia were also mentioned.

The most popular search was the speculation about her family. People not only had fiery eyes, but sometimes were manipulative too. When simple gossip wasn't enough to grab everyone's attention, they'd start adding fuel to the fire.

The Aphrodite Agency immediately deployed its public relations team. They continued to contact various social media companies to remove the hot topic as quickly as possible.

Unfortunately, too many people participated in the discussion. Ten minutes after the hot topic was removed, it would come back again, this time with new details added.

At ten o'clock in the morning, Lilia was sitting alone in the living room of the Lakeside Villa. Sister Mei went out to buy groceries while she laid on the sofa. Lilia hid her body under the blanket with a dazed expression.

To be honest, the rumors on the Internet simply didn't affect her. The reason why Lilia was stunned was because she was wondering if she should go see Mellisa for a while. Her sister must be worried about her.

Right at that moment, Lilia's cellphone rang. Sge picked it up and found that the number hadn't contacted her in a long time.

After being silent for a while, she pursed her lips. Lilia took the initiative to say hello, "Brother Alfred."

Alfred Ricardo, one of a few that hadn't been contacting Lilia for a long time.. Their breakup made Lilia wonder if that man had forgotten her, especially after her outspoken rejection.
