My Supermodel Wife

Chapter 460 - Preparing For Jakarta

Mellisa blinked, she rolled up the oversized sleeve of her shirt up to her upper arm uncomfortably, then shook her head in denial. "Don't be like that, come in and warm yourself!"

Lilia was led by Mellisa into the living room. Before sitting down, she could hear footsteps coming from the spiral staircase on the left.

At the corner of the stairs, Leonard walked steadily with a manly posture.

Lilia didn't make a sound, but looking at the man's cold face a little... the corner of her mouth twitched nervously.

Her arrival tonight seemed to have greatly disturbed whatever her sister and her brother-in-law was doing.

This was all because of Chris!

Lilia couldn't help but curse him secretly. Just because of jealousy, Chris was willing to drive to her house at night and vent his jealousy in front of her husband. In the end, they were discussing serious matters and she had to leave so they could chat freely.

If only Chris hadn't run away from the hospital, Lilia wouldn't have come to the house next door to interfere with her sister's intimate moment!

When she saw Leonard's eyes were clearly fixed on her, Lilia nodded politely. Still, the man's gaze was so... unpleasant!

Lilia wanted to cry without tears. After turning her face away from her future brother-in-law, she looked at Mellisa. In an instant, she gave a plausible excuse. "I came at night because I wanted to talk to you about our departure tomorrow."

Mellisa closed her collar, she ignored Leonard and immediately pulled her sister to the seat. "You don't have to bother coming to me, I was going to see you later."

At this time, Leonard was slowly getting closer, and he didn't know what Mellisa and Lilia were talking about. Then Lilia's future brother-in-law brought two cups of tea from the kitchen and handed them over to Mellisa. "Drink something warm. You've just finished exercising, don't catch a cold!"

Mellisa's face turned red. She couldn't reply to him.

Lilia could only sit dumbfounded. She really wanted to go home.

After speaking in a faint tone, Leonard turned around and sat opposite them calmly. He took the iPad on the side and scrolled the screen seriously and carefully.

Mellisa was so angry that her breathing became chaotic, didn't he just kiss her on the neck? Why was he talking nonsense in front of her sister?

Since when did she start exercising?!

'I was packing, you know! I also had to wear your shirt because you spilled water on my clothes right?'

'Leonard, you will sleep on the couch today!'

Mellisa steadily exhaled and ran her fingers through her hair, combing it backward. She looked pale while she stared at Leonard. Then she turned her head to look at Lilia and continued, "We're leaving at 8 tomorrow morning. Grandpa called today and said he would send someone to meet us at the station later."

Her sister listened without squinting, trying to ignore her future brother-in-law whose presence was strong.

Nobody knew what had happened that the man stared at Lilia as if she was a stranger.

This was also the first time this guy had been so upset!

Lilia shook her head with a smile, then sat down before answering Mellisa, "Okay, no problem. But after arriving in Jakarta, should we continue to stay at the hotel or..."

She didn't explain further, but Lilia was sure that her sister understood what she meant.

From her point of view, there was a big difference between an iron heart family like the Mayer family and an erudite like the Irwan family. But considering grandpa Caleb's attitude, it was unlikely they'd stay with him.

Only this time, Jean also would go along and live in the Mayer family's house. But Lilia didn't know if he'd be welcomed well.

At this time, Mellisa sipped her glass and moisturized her lips before casually saying, "I think 80% Grandpa will arrange for us to stay in the Mayer family's house."

After she finished speaking, she looked at Lilia again and realized a sad look on her face. She put down her glass and immediately held her hand with her tightly grasped fingers. "Don't worry, I'm right there with you."

Lilia looked at the tips of her fingers. Without realizing it, she trembled as she stiffened a little. But then she tried to erase her anxiety and smiled. "I'm not worried, I'm just afraid something will happen."

As soon as she heard those words, Mellisa nodded seriously. "You don't have to worry too much. After we finish our business, we can immediately return to live in Surabaya. Now think about it, our life is also very good lately."

After going through too many twists and turns in life, Mellisa was especially interested in seeking spiritual stability.

In the last few days, Mellisa had been living in Surabaya right next to her sister.

No flashy lifestyle and chaotic world, no commotion, just a peaceful everyday life had made her crave for peace.

Mellisa curled the corners of her lips, her face was filled with a hint of a smile. But her cold eyes were shining with a deep longing.

When Leonard heard her words across their table, his fingers slowed down from scrolling the screen. Before Lilia could speak, Leonard looked at Mellisa and said, "That's right, living in Surabaya is really good, isn't it? Lots of malls and good food, lots of beautiful parks that we can visit. This city is suitable for families."

Now Leonard's family learned that he had resigned from his official position in the capital's police force. They had urged him to come back and take over the family business.

He was a bit hesitant since he knew his heart could never leave Melissa.

Lilia silently lowered her cheeks and smiled faintly. she felt that Mellisa and Leonard seemed to be getting closer.

At this time, Mellisa glanced at Leonard with a faint expression on her face, and refused to look at him. "I like living in Surabaya just because my sister is here!"

'Oh, I see!'

Leonard looked at them without any hesitation, then seriously replied, "Oh, really? That means you don't like me living with you? Why are you suddenly different from your loving attitude in the bed earlier?"

Lilia could only gawk, how should she respond to this much information?!

"Don't listen to that person's delusions!" Mellisa grumbled, her eyebrows furrowed in disgust.

Lilia could feel the depth of their relationship from the way they talked to each other. When she was with Leonard, Mellisa had a more active personality and richer expression.

The two sisters were chatting for a while when suddenly the doorbell rang.

Lilia almost subconsciously stood up and walked out, still muttering. "Maybe Jean's following me here!"

She thought Jean might come to pick her up and take her home.

Outside the door, the man appeared in front of her in a simple black shirt with a coat on his sleeve, the one that he often wore on weekdays. His gaze was filled with warmth.

Lilia smiled and stepped forward, leaning in his arms and raising her head. "Are you done?"

"Yes, I've been waiting for a long time," the man hugged her and rubbed her shoulders twice as if to calm her.

At this time, the sound of footsteps was heard, and when he raised his eyes, he saw Leonard and Mellisa also greeting them.

Men had their own language when they met each other. They just nodded and rarely spoke.

Mellisa stood near the entrance and looked at Jean. "Would you like to come over to chat too?"

The man hadn't answered yet, but Lilia smiled and shook her head. "No, I have to go back and pack my luggage, you... just continue your business!"

Mellisa was stunned and glanced at Lilia.

Leonard grinend wide and replied without any hesitation, "Then be careful!"

He didn't even try to sugarcoat his words when he wanted to shoo them away.

Jean then put his coat on Lilia's shoulder. Even though he didn't say much, his deep gaze fell on Leonard and Mellisa for two seconds, then he led Lilia back to their house.

Mellisa felt that she was not breathing smoothly anymore.

She stood still and exhaled a heavy sigh. Then she turned around and raised her head. "How could you say that... hmphhh!"

"Shhh, don't say anything!"

Leonard locked the corner of Mellisa's mouth, he would like to collect the pending debt from earlier.
