Chapter 738 - Choosing Your Own Gift
Chapter 738 - Choosing Your Own Gift
Lilia caught the light flashing under Jean's eyes. She tilted her head and narrowed her eyes. "Are you also thinking about it?"
The man nodded with a deep and calm expression. "But I don't think Ricky could think that far."
Lilia answered. "Then, you're still going to say that his words are worthy to trust?"
"Alfred did plan to do something about the Widjaya family. He was evil, but not stupid, and certainly wouldn't show his fangs at the Ricardo family's banquet. Maybe, Ricky's warning to us is something that Alfred wanted to let happen."
After Jean explained, Lilia thought for a moment, and her expression changed a little.
"Alfred deliberately let Ricky tell you this news, so if you believe it's true, then you must be prepared for anything on the day of the banquet, or you can move in advance.. Taking some precautions won't hurt, right?"
Lilia wisely acknowledged this consequence. And more than that, she was increasingly afraid of Alfred's behavior.
If he had designed all of this in secret, then his mind was deeply vile and ferocious enough!
As for Ricky, he didn't realize that Alfred had taken advantage of him.
After a while, Jean sighed. "Ricky is too impatient, he thinks making a big problem is a trivial matter!"
Lilia agreed, and after thinking again, she sighed. "No matter what, the Widjaya family isn't that weak!"
It's the fight between the lion and the tiger!
The man gave her a deep look, then called on the internal phone on his table. "Kenny, come into my room!"
After a while, Kenny came back in.
"Go and give my reply to the secretary of Galaxy Real Estate, tell him that I will attend the banquet as scheduled."
"Yes, sir."
...
It was almost five o'clock in the afternoon, Lilia used her cell phone to search the internet.
Recently, her popularity on the Internet has been on the rise again.
The reason for this comes from the fact that she was nominated for best supporting artist at the Annual Film Festival Award.
Under this topic, many fans have taken screenshots of her scene from "The Chosen Kingdom". Professional film critics have also provided related analysis and commentary.
It is estimated that her chances of winning the award are around 50%.
Seeing this news, Lilia couldn't laugh or cry.
She did not feel she had what it took to compete with actors from professional backgrounds.
Maybe her fans are just showing love.
At this time, Jean heard the sound of the phone on his desk ringing.
When connected, he heard the report and said, "Okay, get the car ready."
Hanging up, he went back to work at the computer for a few minutes before finally turning off the screen and looking at Lilia. "What are you doing?"
"Browsing the internet!" Lilia lifted her head from the phone screen. "Are you finished?"
"I'm taking you somewhere!"
The man got up, took the coat from the back of the chair, and put it on his wife's shoulder. When he bent his arms, he asked, "Are you hungry?"
Lilia shook her head, got up and put on her jacket, her eyes blinking. "If I ask where we are going to leave, you will definitely tell me, right? "
The man did not answer, and walked towards her slowly, smoothing her long hair which was covered by a mantle, and lightly joking. "You will know when we arrive."
Lilia could only succumb to see his charming smile and shrugged. "Okay, let's go then!"
...
Half an hour later, they arrived at the Claude's Jewelry and Gold shop.
Lilia appeared at the entrance to the mall with a mask and walked arm in arm with a man. She bowed her head as low as possible along the way, and the blocking side of her face with her bangs.
It was less than six o'clock, but the entrance to Claude's Jewelry and Gold Shop had already been lowered by half.
A sign stood firmly at the door, stating that the business was closed.
When Lilia and the man approached, the head office manager stood at the door and greeted them enthusiastically. "Welcome, boss!"
The man did not respond, and Lilia was also a little suspicious.
She looked at Jean subconsciously, blinked, and her eyes glanced at the name Claude's Jewelry and Gold Shop in front of her, then suddenly realized.
"Hello," she said.
Thi is is a property that was transferred to her by her big brother!
And she is the boss!
Having such a new identity really makes her feel new.
She couldn't help but form a smile under her mask.
The manager recognized her probably because she and Jean were holding hands.
Anyone would know the woman of the fourth young master of the Widjaya family, the supermodel Lilia!
The office manager excitedly invited the two of them into the shop. Meanwhile, an old man slowly came from the entrance of the mall building
...
Inside the jewelry shop, Lilia was looking around.
After James gave her six shops, she had never been here.
Jewelry and Gold Shop Claude had a good reputation, although not as famous as the top international brands, but still very popular in the hearts of commoners.
With a loud voice coming from behind, Lilia looked back and saw that the officer had lowered the entire door and shut it tightly.
Seeing this scene, Lilia squeezed Jean's palm, and she asked why he took her here.
At this moment, the office manager opened his mouth, "Young master, miss, you can rest in the VIP area, and I'll come right away after taking care of a few things!"
The man nodded, and the manager walked into the office behind the shop.
"Is this the first time you've come here?" Jean took Lilia's hand and strolled around the shop.
Lilia looked at the gold and silver jewelry placed on the counter, then hurriedly nodded. "I knew this shop before, but I never entered."
"Look around, if you like, take two!" The man suggested.
Lilia couldn't help laughing. "You brought me here today and asked me to choose my own gift?"
"You could say that!"
The lights in the jewelry shop were very bright, and the crystal rays shining on the gems reflected their beauties, exposing magical colors.
Lilia looked at the counter, but finally shook her head. "I rarely wear jewelry. So far, I've only ever worn the wedding ring that belonged to both of us. It took me a long time to get used to wearing them."
The man stood beside her, staring at his wife's white and clear cheeks then said, "Looks like you don't like my surprise."
When those words were spoken, Lilia took a glimpse at the back of the shop. Her eyebrows were soft and she took his hand. "Let's see this one, who knows if I like it!"
Lilia then dragged her husband towards the VIP area.
In front of the square sofa, the manager was already squatting to the side. On the table, there is a tray with a black background and a red border, a red box the size of a palm, and a mirror.
It looks like he is carrying necklaces.
The manager was wearing white gloves, and when he was about to open the box, the man waved to stop. "Aren't you busy? I can do it myself."
"Then, if you need my help, call me whenever you want." The manager walked out and told his subordinates not to disturb their boss.
Right now, there were only the two of them sitting in the VIP area.
The man glanced at the tray, then said, "Open it!"
