My Supermodel Wife

Chapter 43 - Falling In Love

That night, the name Rina Calya immediately went viral.

Photographs snapped by the reporters were widely circulated on the internet, including photos of Rina as she was carried on a stretcher into an ambulance. In an instant, the model's reputation sank.

While the guests were still gossiping about the incident, Lilia, Jean, and their three friends quietly left the hotel.

Chris and Alex stood on the red carpet watching Jean and Lilia's limo leave the scene. The two's eyes were shining with interest.

"Looks like Jean really has fallen in love with that woman." Chris said with a serious look.

Alex nodded excitedly, "I've never seen him treat others so well!"

Chris took out a cigarette and lit it with a lighter, "Do you think Lilia Pangestu is the woman he has been looking for?"

"I…"

Before Alex could finish his sentence, a car horn interrupted them. A black car pulled up in front of them and the car window slid down to reveal Tom's face.

"Come in! How much longer do you want to stand there?" Called Tom with a wide, innocent smile.

Alex sighed and glanced at Chris, "I don't know if that woman is really Lilia Pangestu. But I know who needs to be taught tonight's lesson."

Chris nodded in agreement, "I was just thinking the same thing. Let's get in the car and teach this kid not to interrupt other people's conversations!"

Tom didn't know what the two friends were talking about, but he started breaking out in a cold sweat when he heard their evil laughter. What mistake did he make now?!

*****

In the limousine, Jean and Lilia sat side by side in the back seat. The atmosphere in the car was shrouded in silence. Jean wasn't the chatty type and Lilia felt awkward being alone with that guy.

While staring out the window, Lilia remembered something. She turned to the man beside her, "Will Rina be okay?" She asked.

Jean glanced at Lilia and raised his eyebrows in surprise, "Are you worried about her?"

Lilia sighed, "How could I? She deserves to fall into the hole she dug herself!" She shifted her gaze while muttering in a small voice, "I'm just worried that your reputation will be affected because something happened to her."

Lilia was concerned because Rina was involved in an incident at the hotel where the Widjaya Family celebration party was held. Those smart enough to understand should know that Rina wasn't invited to the party, but Lilia was worried that people would link the Widjaya Family with Rina's incident. In the end, even people with high reputation could barely handle what people would say on the internet.

Even though Lilia deliberately lowered her voice, Jean's sharp ears could still hear her.

"Hmm ... so you are worried about me?" Jean's face was adorned with a mischievous smile.

Lilia's ears started to turn red and she coughed to cover her embarrassment, "I never said that. It's up to you how you define it."

Jean's smile grew wider, then he leaned towards Lilia. His large hands caught Lilia's chin, causing the woman to look up at him.

"Why is your face red? Are you embarrassed to admit that you are worried about me? Isn't it natural for a wife to worry about her husband...?"

With every word Jean said, Lilia's face turned so red that she couldn't take it anymore and burst out with anger, "Okay, I'm really worried about you! There I said it, satisfied now?!" Lilia brushed Jean's hand away from her face.

This man really tested her patience!

Lilia had a feeling that Jean was enjoying her reaction so that the man wouldn't stop until Lilia gave up first.

Jean grabbed Lilia's hand back and landed a light kiss on top of her knuckles, "Of course. Hearing you say that makes me very happy."

Lilia swore she could get diabetes because of the sweetness in Jean's words.
