My Supermodel Wife

Chapter 529 - Stage Tragedy

@ Men.Choice: "Who would be their choice? Is that the star of their acquaintance?"

@LooLLL: "There's only fake news since yesterday, is this also one of them?!"

@Lovehunter: "Wasn't it yesterday that Lilia wore a high-grade faux Van dress to participate in the event? What are you going to do about this problem? @Van Clothing"

Ten minutes later, the official Van brand account suddenly answered netizens' most important question.

Van Clothing Reply @Lovehunter: The dress worn by Lilia is authentic, please don't spread rumors that could lead to misunderstanding.

In an instant, screenshots of the reply that the brand's official account had written were spread wide on the internet..

This answer immediately dismissed the opinion of fashion enthusiasts and observers, as well as those who had said that the dress was a mere imitation. People came back to trash at them for giving false information.

...

The promotion event at Moonlight Studios was still ongoing.

Similar to the one held in Jakarta, this event was nothing more than a session for the director and actors to answer questions from journalists.

Lilia was standing in front of the beautifully crafted background board. She faced the cameras of the reporters politely. She turned her head from time to time to fully meet the media's need for shooting.

From her side, William was seen approaching her calmly.

Edward and Louis were being interviewed by several journalists at the moment, while Lilia and William, as the image of the film, remained on stage to take some pictures and wait for the next wave of interviews.

This time, there was someone who shouted Lilia's name and asked her to step forward a little. Lilia followed her voice and her figure moved slightly to help them take better photos.

When she moved, William did too.

The two's almost identical steps made the media sense a strange atmosphere.

William approached Lilia and took advantage of the ambiguous sight. He leaned forward slightly and said in a low voice, "I heard Albert from the Aphrodite Agency wants to promote a new model recently, is that true?"

After hearing this, Lilia's expression remained unchanged and her eyes were still looking at the camera. When she raised her hand to smooth the hair near her ear, she answered him with a few cold words, "It has nothing to do with you."

William smiled. "This really has nothing to do with me, but don't you wonder why Albert suddenly changed?"

"Since when did you care so much about the Aphrodite Agency?"

The photo session had just ended, Lilia turned around and tried to leave the stage as quickly as possible. Her ex's gaze turned dark and gloomy as she walked past him.

Before Lilia left him, William said with complacency, "After all, we will become co-workers soon. Lilia, I pay special attention to all things related to you, don't you know?"

When Lilia was about to leave, she stopped and looked back. "I don't care about everything that has to do with you, but if you were placed in Surabaya, it would be a very bad news."

After that, Lilia walked towards the stage steps to descend.

For today's event, Lilia was wearing strappy stiletto heels, and the floor was covered with a red, non-slip carpet.

As she walked slowly toward the stairs, she didn't know if this was her fault or the carpet work, but her heels suddenly caught on the carpet.

Currently, in a corner of the stage, journalists were still busy taking pictures with SLR cameras in their hands. No one suspected why Lilia was pausing at the corner for a while.

Lilia leaned forward and moved her ankles, vaguely feeling that her heels were caught in the gaps between the floor joints under the red carpet.

She planned to take off her shoes, and Harold, who was following her in the audience, realized this incident.

As he tried to get through the crowd to help her, Harold couldn't help but worry about Lilia.

Suddenly, when he was only a few steps from the stage, someone exclaimed, "Look, the background! It's going to collapse!"

"Lilia!"

"Lilia!"

Two shouts came from the stage and the audience.

One of them was Harold, who was rushing through the crowd, and the other came from William as he stood behind Lilia.

Initially, William planned to leave the stage with her, but the reporters kept calling his name halfway through and they forced him to stay for a few more photographs.

When William finished, he saw Lilia's figure bending over to take off her shoes. However, not far from her, the four meter high backdrop began to sway and looked like it was about to fall.

The background would definitely collapse on her, and it would crush her underneath!

Harold and William's screams immediately drew everyone's attention.

People followed their voices and looked at the corner of the stage. The wide background board looked like it was about to hit Lilia's body. Those in the front row quickly rushed onto the stage to help.

But in the end, the backdrop board slammed onto the stage with a loud bang, shaking the entire venue.

After everything calmed down again, everyone immediately swarmed the stage.

What a tragedy!

This background board could kill people easily.

It was made of iron frames, so if it hit someone's head, of course their fate would end in death or being crippled for life.

Everything happened in a blink of an eye.

Lilia was no exception. When she heard someone shout her name, she unconsciously wanted to avoid it.

But her heel was still stuck in the gap in the floor, and her strappy high heels couldn't be removed right away.

Lilia couldn't do anything.

The very wide and very tall background board drew closer, and she was completely helpless.

...

Right now, the backdrop board fell flat on the floor. The steel frame changed shape, and the protrusions on the other side indicated that two people were trapped inside.

Harold ran to the side of the stage in panic, he forcefully pushed aside the crowd with his trembling hands.

The staff moved quickly and prevented everyone from moving forward, while others worked together to lift one side of the background board. Someone then screamed, "Hurry and call an ambulance, there's blood in here!"

"Be careful, don't move the injured! I'll call an ambulance right away1"

Louis and Edward also stood on the edge of the crowd and looked around. They didn't know who was the victim until they heard someone scream. "Hurry up, Lilia fainted!"

"Don't pull them! William's head and back are full of blood, don't move them carelessly..."

Louis' face suddenly changed.

The only female protagonist who could participate in this tour event passed out and the second male lead was also injured. Louis felt that the show was completely ruined!

The reporters who came to the scene saw it all and raced to cover this incident.

An unfortunate, unexpected accident like this sold far better than a movie promotion event!

How would they write the title?

"William gave his life to protect his old love!"

The journalists immediately aimed their camera and took a whole lot of pictures of the scene. In less than half an hour, major news channels and entertainment media broadcasted the news about Lilia and William's serious injuries.

Dina and Rini had just come to the scene and found out that Lilia was seriously injured. Their expressions turned serious in an instant.

They were completely shocked!

Not long after the program started, the staff at the venue reminded the celebrity assistants that they were not allowed to leave the backstage area provided by the staff.

They asked these assistants to pack valuables and wait quietly backstage.
