My Supermodel Wife

Chapter 655 - A Photo

Lilia's response made the man's eyes stare at her with a touch of complexity.

Her fingertips gently traced the man's neckline, catching his gaze. "Is there anything else?"

Apart from taking her to Parma, was there any other reason besides introducing her to his brothers?

Thinking of this, Lilia was observing the man seriously, trying to get some hints from his expression.

After a while, the man sighed and said bluntly, "Introducing you is one of them. But most importantly, have you ever thought about staying in Parma and giving birth?"

"Going to Parma to give birth?" Lilia raised her tone in surprise.

She was only surprised that Jean had such an idea.

After a few seconds of settling down, Lilia calmed her mind and sat up straight from his embrace. "Are you worried that when my stomach gets bigger, it won't be safe here?"

Apart from that, she couldn't think of any other more plausible reason.

At least, until Jean told her about this, she never expected that the man suggested Parma as the birthplace of their baby.

But if this was his wish, she didn't have to worry.

In the end, wherever their baby is going to be born, the most important thing is safety.

The man did not hide his worries, and nodded frankly. "I do have this concern, and Parma is different from Indonesia. However, you know yourself how special our 'real identities' are."

After he finished with his words, the man paused and gently looked at her for a while. Then he added, "I haven't considered this matter thoroughly, so you don't need to think about it. Even if you don't want to, I can protect you from any harm regardless of where."

"I am fine!" Lilia put her hand on the corner of his mouth and kissed him. "Anyway, it's still early. If the situation is worse at the moment, then I will go to Parma, which incidentally has become my second favorite place,"

Lilia's indifferent attitude seems to talk about a very common thing.

She just needs to know that Jean was only telling her this out of his concern for their child's safety.

As she realized, her pregnancy seems to always attract media's attention.

Some artists have had their children, and the media stayed in the hospital all day long for that.

If she can avoid this problem, why not do it?

Lilia smiles and accepts the man's proposal. She leaned back in his arms, grabbed his hand and put it on her stomach.

After a moment of silence, she said again, "After everything is under control, let's go to Surabaya Central Hospital again. After a few days, we should be able to hear our baby's heartbeat again."

"Good." Theman answered and kissed her head.

...

The next day, the sixth day of the Lunar New Year, Lilia made an appointment with Harold to meet in Gaia Entertainment.

She had been gone for almost half a month, and now she had to start confronting public opinion head-on when she returned.

Lilia was seen exiting the lift with two boxes of gifts she brought from Parma as she walked towards Harold's office on the eighth floor.

It seemed that there weren't many people in the office on the last day of the holiday.

She knocked on the door, and when she stepped inside, she caught a face that she hadn't seen for quite a while.

"Hi, Lilia!"

The one sitting in front of Harold today is Joe, who resigned from the Agency Aphrodite a year ago.

The man then raised his hand to greet Lilia. When he brought out a chair for her, his eyes kept staring at her.

Lilia put fruit on the table and turned to him. "Why are you looking at me like this?"

"Hasn't it been a long time since I saw you? After a year of not seeing you, you seem to be getting fatter!"

Lilia unconsciously wanted to hold her chest and stomach. "..."

Harold tilted his leg and glanced at Joe. "Look and see your own fat face first. Aren't you ashamed to say it?"

Joe touched his cheek wryly then chuckled. "During Chinese New Year, my mother steamed meat for me every day after returning to my hometown. I've tried to hold back, otherwise I'll bring back ten pounds of fat!"

Harold ignored him. Instead, he looked at the two gift boxes on the table and moved his hand in a very natural manner. "What is this?"

"The fruits and food I brought from abroad!" Lilia said while sitting down. Harold then moved the two boxes.

Seeing this, Joe looked at Lilia's hand again, then leaned forward and pointed to the two boxes. "Did you bring me one?"

He never ate foreign food.

Harold raised his hand and tugged at Joe's fingers. "Look at this fatty! You've got a lot to lose so don't even think of taking one!"

Joe was speechless.

He will starve today!

After talking and laughing a few times, Lilia's face straightened up. She took out a cell phone from her pocket and asked while opening her social media, "What are the trends on the Internet now?"

Hearing that, Harold also reduced his smile, tapping the table with his nails once again. "Beforehand, I want to ask you, is there anyone or your friend in the industry who knows about your relationship with the Pangestu family?"

Lilia shook her head without hesitation. "No one! I don't think so. You know most of my friends anyway. Why do you ask?"

Harold narrowed his eyes with a smile. "I suspect the person who leaked this incident might be an acquaintance of yours, otherwise the information on the internet wouldn't be this clear about your life before this. What about William, do you think he could've leaked it?"

"William?" Lilia was in a daze for a few seconds before remembering anything else. "I almost forgot if you didn't mention him. What about his legs?"

Before Harold could answer, Joe was joking with gossip. "He tried to pretend to be disabled, but then got exposed. Just a few days before Chinese New Year, a reporter wanted to secretly record William's new life as a disabled person. Incidentally, someone took his picture in the back garden of Minerva Hospital. He was sitting in a wheelchair then stood up and kicked a rock with his leg! How cute!"

Lilia just heard this news for the first time, she also surfed the internet a few days ago but she didn't see the news.

After seeing her suspicions, Harold explained, "Currently the news is only known by a small circle of people in the industry, and the media has not released the news yet. I heard that someone paid a large amount of money to buy the photo!"

Lilia then smiled. "Oh, then that person must have spent a lot of money!"

Such a controversial photo would be worth at least 8 figures. If it's truly getting leaked, there's no way that guy will get away this time!

Unexpectedly, William was very willing to pay for it.

Harold snorted. "No matter how much he spends, he deserves it. Now that he's a complete joke, I heard that our side has suspended his medical expenses. A colleague from Aphrodite also secretly informed me that Albert had turned down the offer to recruit William and refused to pay for his medical expenses. An actor like him, if managed properly, might become the next legend. But in the end, he dug his own grave, very well deserved indeed!"

Harold didn't have a favorable impression of William.

A man who thinks he can deceive others is definitely not going to have a good ending!

Lilia didn't waste too much energy on William, she returned to the topic just now. "William couldn't have found out about my family's background."
