My Supermodel Wife

Chapter 482 - Iron Lady Of Yogyakarta

Mellisa glared at Mike, she didn't answer but instead chuckled and asked, "Instead of worrying about me, you should worry about your marriage contract with Leila. Is it already canceled?"

Mellisa was just purely curious, she didn't want Mike to be tied up by a woman like Leila.

After all, they grew up together since they were young, and Mike deserved better.

However, Mellisa did not expect that the peaceful question would make Mike's eyebrows raised, showing his excited face.

He was short of breath and even shivering when he said, "You don't want me to be with Leila?"

Mellisa's emotions came so fast that she herself didn't notice it and got confused.

She arched her brows and nodded calmly. "Of course I don't want you to be with her. A woman like her is not good enough for you!"

"Mellisa, I ..."

Mike's feelings were a little out of control, but after all, Mellisa was the woman he loved. Just when he was about to speak, someone called Mellisa's name from afar.

"Miss Mellisa, Miss Mellisa..." it turned out to be Uncle Axel's voice.

Mellisa quickly put out and threw away the cigarette. When she turned back, she realized Mike wasn't following and she looked back suspiciously. "Aren't you coming back?"

Mike bit the corner of his lower lip and shook the cigarette butt in his hand. "You go back first, I still want to finish it."

Mellisa said nothing in return, she just walked along while her figure was deeply engraved in Mike's eyes.

He wondered if he had a chance to express his feelings to Mellisa in his life.

Even if he managed to tell the truth, could their relationship change?

Mike couldn't help comparing himself to Leonard. In terms of the family, his family was absolutely incomparable to Leonard's family. But he was sure, his love for Mellisa was much greater than that of the man.

But he didn't know how to make Mellisa turn away from him.

Still, Mike had to admit that Leonard was better at being assertive and tolerant.

...

When Mellisa was summoned back to the banquet hall by Axel, she heard Axel talk excitedly. "Miss Mellisa, the big master worked very hard for tonight's party. Even the Iron Lady from Yogyakarta came to attend this banquet. She was a hero and was known as a brave warrior when she was young."

Iron Lady from Yogyakarta?!

Mellisa was very unfamiliar with this name, but when she noticed Axel's way of addressing her, she was sure that the woman was highly respected.

After Axel brought Mellisa back to the banquet hall, they didn't stay long in the lobby. They immediately passed the buffet table area and hurriedly rushed to the reception hall in the back hall.

On the way, Axel also said, "Your grandfather is reminiscing about the past with the Iron Lady inside. He plans to introduce you and Lilia to her first."

Mellisa just nodded and didn't say anything.

...

In the current reception room, Lilia was already sitting to the side, seemingly listening to their conversation with dignity, but her mood was not calm.

She never expected to meet the Iron Lady Yogyakarta, Florence Ricardo, at this Mayer family dinner.

At the same time, Alfred also accompanied her.

A few minutes ago, when Mrs. Florence from Yogyakarta appeared in the banquet hall, almost everyone who knew her immediately shifted their attention to her.

Even though she was not a resident in the capital city of Jakarta, the name Iron Lady resonated a lot.

When Caleb saw her, he smiled and greeted her. They shook hands and exchanged greetings after years of not seeing each other. This, of course, made people excited.

At that time, Lilia was standing not far from her grandfather. She heard Florence laughing and joking with him. "Brother, after so many years of not seeing each other, we can finally meet again in this joyful moment the Mayer family generously shares with us!"

"Sister, it must be difficult for you to come here since you live far away. We haven't met for nearly 20 years!"

Lilia was surprised by the warm greetings between Caleb and Florence.

The supermodel just felt that the world was too small, and spinning around, these two old people turned out to be old acquaintances.

...

Currently, in this special room, there were two pairs of square sofas and a coffee table. The floor was covered by a thick Persian rug with a black pattern. The entire interior layout was neat and luxurious enough for special guests.

Florence was talking quietly with her grandfather, and beside her was Alfred wearing a dark blue suit.

Lilia noticed the man's constant gaze. She tugged at the corners of her lips and lowered her head. A hair fell from the front of her forehead and fell on the side of her face.

At this time, Florence was chatting and laughing. She then glanced at Lilia who was sitting firmly beside Caleb.

Her cheeks were covered in old wrinkles, showing a hint of kindness. "Brother, I really didn't think this girl was your granddaughter."

Caleb followed Florence's gaze, he was very surprised. "Oh, do you know my granddaughter?" The old man's tone was tinged with a great shock.

Florence smiled, her gaze that fell on Lilia's face was warm. "Little girl, do you still remember this old lady?"

Lilia straightened her body and when she smoothed the hair on her forehead, she politely nodded towards Florence. "Mrs. Florence, of course I always remember you. We haven't seen each other in a long time. How are you?"

"I'm fine," Florence nodded and smiled, then she looked at Caleb and explained, "I have a deep impression of this girl. At our family's birthday banquet, my grandson Alfred specially brought her to celebrate my birthday. When I saw this girl, I liked her. I didn't expect her to be your grandchild."

Caleb was shocked, but then he laughed. "I see, my granddaughter is indeed an interesting person."

After he finished speaking, he looked at Alfred again and whispered to Florence, "Now that we are all old, it's time for youth like them to shine!"

Florence turned to look at Alfred, who had not spoken for a long time. She tapped her arm on the sofa. "Among our Ricardos, Alfred is the best. But young people today are all shy. You used to introduce Lilia to your grandmother but nothing happened to the two of you. Since we have met again today, I hope that you will be closer to each other. How about you take her to Yogyakarta? I can come too!"

Alfred smiled slightly and nodded seriously. He followed his grandmother's words and looked at Lilia. There was a stream of light floating in those dark eyes. "Grandma, rest assured, we will get even closer!"

"That's good, that's good!" Florence nodded in satisfaction. "This girl, I really like her! The more I see her, the more I adore her. She is quiet and beautiful, Alfred, you must treat her well!"

The voice fell, and the smile in the corner of Caleb's mouth hardened. He stared at Florence, his tone a little stiff when he said, "Sister, don't you know? Our girl has been married for a long time. Don't mess with someone's wife. It's dangerous, you know!"

The old man's tone was full of respect, he didn't want to embarrass his old friend.

Florence slowly stopped her hand from tapping Alfred's arm at this sentence.

She was a little stunned, her eyes flickering, but it was fleeting.

The old woman had been tested in many difficult circumstances, naturally possessing unique skills and a great approach to life.

She was stunned for a moment, then she let go of her shock.. Florence then looked at Lilia and joked. "So this girl is married? Who's the lucky man?"
