My Supermodel Wife

Chapter 665 - Uninvited Guest

Right now, in a private room in the restaurant, Tom was ordering with a menu in hand.

Alex and Chris were seen chatting on the sofa next to them.

At this time, the door opened. Tom thought it was Jean and Lilia but when he raised his eyes, the guy was surprised.

He vaguely looked at Chris on the sofa. "Chris!"

Chris then turned his head and followed Tom's vision, a trace of surprise crossing his eyes. "Why are you here?"

The person outside the door is Alan.

And beside him, a familiar female figure stood with her head down— Rachel.

Chris and Alex looked at each other for a moment, got up and walked toward the entrance to the private room. In a few short steps, his eyes gradually deepened and a dark wave surged.

He just returned to Indonesia today, and Alan immediately found him after hearing the news.

He came uninvited, and as he entered the room, he looked over at Chris. "Are you alright?"

Chris looked at himself subconsciously and spread out his arms. "What's the problem, do you care about me?"

"Where did you go during Chinese New Year? Your phone was out of reach and you didn't leave a message for us before you left. I thought you had an accident."

Alan's eyes were clearly worried.

This scene caused Alex and Tom to fall silent, the atmosphere in the room was a little awkward because of the man's arrival.

Chris licked his teeth and smiled. "I was in a hurry when I got out, so I didn't tell you."

He thought that the Hartanto extended family most likely wished he was dead outside.

At this moment, seeing Alan being so fond of him filled his heart with complexity.

Right or wrong, anyone could expect anything from a human's heart.

Alan is older than Chris, and under the teachings of his parents, he is cautious and observant.

He clearly read the irony and resistance from Chris's eyes.

He didn't know when his relationship with Chris had turned into walking on thin ice.

This made Alan very uncomfortable. "Chris, you ..."

Before he could finish his words, footsteps came from outside the room.

Everyone looked back and saw Jean holding Lilia's hand as they slowly stepped in.

Lilia stood a few paces from the room, drawing Rachel's attention. "Rachel...?"

Didn't she say that she was going on a temporary trip? How could she appear here?

Rachel lowered her head stiffly. "Lilia ..."

She called, but didn't say much.

It is clear that a few hours ago, she said that she was going on a business trip.

When her lie was exposed, she felt very embarrassed.

Lilia's clear and beautiful gaze drifted towards the room, and when she entered with that man, she realized that the atmosphere was somehow heated.

She smiled wisely and broke the deadlock. "Are you all here too? Or ... are we late?"

Tom took the lead and greeted her. "It's not too late, we just arrived."

Alex tapped Chris on the shoulder, then tugged a little and said to Alan, "Since we're here, let's eat together."

Alan looked deeply at Chris, sighed and nodded. "Okay."

When Rachel had no other choice, she could just walk over to the sofa with Alan and sit down.

The room is very spacious, with a large draped sofa and a coffee table filled with plates of fruit and cakes. The round table with eight stands opposite it was neatly arranged with various tableware and plates.

Lilia was dragged by Tom to the round table. Before she sat down, she heard him ask in a low voice, "Lilia, why is your friend always with Alan?"

Lilia knew what Tom meant, but she smiled and said nothing.

In fact, she didn't know how to answer this question.

Ever since she entered the door, Rachel had purposely avoided her eyes.

Seeing this, Tom curled his lips. When he drew the chair for Lilia, he whispered, "Chris' relationship with his family has been very tense lately. That woman is your friend, so even if she doesn't know anything, lest she become an enemy," he said, objectively analyzing the current situation.

For this matter, even if they weren't part of the Hartanto family, they would definitely stand firm beside Chris.

On the other hand, this friend of Lilia was too inappropriate to follow Alan for whatever reason.

Lilia responded to Tom's reminder, and instead of sitting at the table, she took off her scarf and walked over to the sofa.

Lilia stood in front of Rachel without any change in her face, then asked with a faint smile, "Rachel, will you accompany me to the bathroom for a moment?"

At this time, Rachel, who was still lowering her head and worrying about her existence, raised her eyes in a daze, and paused for a moment before saying, "Oh, well, I'll accompany you!"

The two of them then left the room one by one, leaving the gentlemen.

He had to say that Jean's presence had greatly reduced the initially heated atmosphere.

He sat next to Chris, his deep gaze fixed on the opposite Alan. His eyes shot sharply and Jean turned to speak. "I heard that the land at the Surabaya border is ready to be grounded today, is that right?"

After speaking, Chris' expression was calm, but Alan's eyes were shocked.

Chris folded his legs, his movements a little sloppy. "I don't know."

Alex and Jean looked at each other for a moment, then immediately answered, "Chris, why don't you know? That piece of land isn't yours?!"

Chris pulled the corners of his mouth and opened his eyes little by little. Then he ran into Alan's flickering gaze. "Brother, why are you silent? Don't you want to explain?"

After he said it, everyone turned their attention to Alan.

This scene furrowed his thick brows.

The land was snatched from Chris by his father.

This incident happened a month ago.

The construction company that Chris owned was also taken away at the same time.

When Alan found out, everything had happened.

In other words, he had been hearing it for a long time, but he chose to sit on the sidelines.

However, what surprised him was that Jean immediately asked.

After all, this is part of the Hartanto family's conflict of interest, it's impossible for Jean not to know.

Alan's cheeks showed an invisible disgust. He also folded his legs and stretched out his hands. "I'm not sure about this. The construction company in charge of building the land is currently using my father's name."

After hearing this, Chris shrugged his shoulders at Jean. "You heard it? Now I am not qualified to participate in the construction."

"Hmm..." The man pondered for a moment. "In the original land tenure agreement, the only user is you. If you don't participate in the land development, then the agreement must be canceled!"

Jean spoke the last two words very slowly.

Alan's expression changed when he heard this sentence.

He had never seen the deal. At first, it was because Chris wanted to take Gaia Entertainment from Sara, so Jefferson fought back.

And since he failed, Jefferson took action by seizing the land development plan at the city's border from Chris.
