My Supermodel Wife

Chapter 851 - We’re Not On Our Honeymoon Yet!

Leonard's anxiety was gradually eased by a few words from Jean.

He squeezed the fingertips of the phone without holding back, and his voice echoed. "Jean, after I take over the Adler family, the first thing I will do is to establish a permanent partnership with your family."

Jean lightly inhaled his cigarette after hearing this. He raised his eyebrows teasingly. "Then I will wait for the good news!"

After hanging up, the man looked at the call records on the phone, his eyes slightly smiling.

He pinched his cigarette and came out of the kitchen, then looked up and saw Lilia sitting on the sofa in the living room in a daze.

The man stepped forward slowly, supported the back of the chair with one hand, and leaned back slightly. "What are you thinking about?"

Lilia suddenly came back to her senses and smiled brightly. "Have you finished the call?"

"Yes." The man stood beside her.

"Sit down." Lilia tugged at his fingertips gently.

"What did Mellisa tell you?"

Lilia turned to face Jean with a faint smile. "Sister Melissa asked me how I broke the deadlock between us every time we had a fight and what I do to make you happy."

After the talk, the man could not resist the urge to bow his head and smirked.

It seems that his future sister-in-law is in deep trouble recently, otherwise she wouldn't ask about the secret of persuading a man.

At this time, Jean's deep brows also showed a hint of surprise. "She really asked about it all?"

Lilia nodded with a smile. "Isn't it surprising that Mellisa can take the initiative to steal someone's heart now? I think they will get along on their own very soon!"

The man raised his arms then pulled the person into his arms, and sighed with a smile. "So, your future brother-in-law is just as insensitive as your sister."

Lilia blinked and leaned in front of him. "Huh? What do you mean? What did Leonard say to you? Melissa's voice sounded weak and worried, was their fight that serious?"

The man put his arm around her shoulders, and shook his head slightly. "Not to the point of being serious, maybe because Leonard has always been a stubborn person, so he never pours out his heart to anyone else. But it seems he's afraid it will backfire."

"Hah?" Lilia was stunned. "Does Mellisa still not know that her departure to Bandung was planned by Leonard?"

Jean pursed his lips in a pretentious manner. "She doesn't know yet. Leonard wants to tell Mellisa the truth. But he's worried that Mellisa will leave again when she finds out the truth, so he's in a difficult position."

Lilia opened her mouth, slightly dumbfounded.

"The two of them don't really trust each other, this is very worrying!" She muttered and thought to herself.

Not long after, she turned her gaze to look at the man with a smile. "Jean, I heard… your company hasn't been busy lately?"

Hearing this, the man narrowed his eyes calmly, showing interest. He bluntly said his thoughts, "So, you want to go to Bandung?"

As he spoke, his eyes couldn't help but pass through Lilia's five-month-old pregnant belly.

Lilia's eyes lit up, and she lifted her head and kissed the man's cheek. "After we got married, we haven't had our honeymoon yet!"

Only a week had passed since their wedding.

In the last few days, Jean had always been working from home, and most of the company's business had been left to Kenny.

Instead of accompanying her at Villa Lakeside every day, it was better to go on a trip and consider it their honeymoon.

Now her pregnancy has stabilized, and regular checkups confirm that the child is healthy, and even the morning sickness symptoms have subsided.

Lilia really wanted to see Mellisa and Leonard.

The bouquet at the wedding was taken by Mellisa.

Lilia eagerly looked into the man's eyes, with anticipation etched on her delicate cheeks.

Upon seeing this, Jean sighed softly and kissed her forehead. "Indeed, we haven't had our honeymoon yet. So if Mrs. Widjaya thinks Bandung is a good place to go, maybe we should go there."

Lilia looked very happy. "I'll get my things ready!"

"Wait." Jean held her shoulders, he got up and stood up. "We don't need to rush to leave today."

Lilia suppressed her excitement, turned her head and rested her chin on the man's shoulder. "Okay, I'll listen to you."

Jean looked at her soft eyebrows and lowered his head to give her a deep kiss.

After the kiss, Lilia's face was covered in light, and she licked the corners of her mouth as she remembered one more thing. "I heard the Adlers' house isn't easy to get into. You also said that Leonard's mother and father are now in Bandung. Things are pretty tense now, can we go in?"

The man stretched out his thumb to wipe the water off his wife's lips. "These trivial matters are not worth worrying about, Mrs. Widjaya. Since we are going to Bandung, we always have to make some preparations. By the way, we can also help your future brother-in-law to seize power."

Lilia's eyebrows and the corners of her eyes showed a charming light, then she looked at the man's handsome face with stars in her eyes.

Immediately, she buried her head in her husband's chest and said, "Then let's keep it a secret first, and give them a surprise later."

The man raised his hand and stroked her hair. "Okay."

...

When Leonard hung up the phone, the heavy expression on his brows faded.

He bent down and picked up the cigarette butt in the ashtray, with determination in his eyes.

Jean was right, he was too indecisive.

Ever since Mellisa had come to the Adlers' house, his mood had continued to cloud his judgment.

This was all because he cared about her too much, so he didn't dare to pour out his heart so easily.

The human mind is complex by nature, and the more he cared, the shyer he became.

Leonard threw his cigarette butt into the ashtray, and looking at the scattered ashes, he couldn't help but laugh to himself.

After all, he used to be a great cop. But when he met Mellisa, everything had changed.

On the other hand, Mellisa was still in the master bedroom at the moment. While being watched by the butler, she lazily ate the freshly prepared bread and milk.

She couldn't figure out Leonard's intentions. Since he didn't want to eat with her, why let the butler watch over her?

Mellisa intuitively felt that Leonard's change might have something to do with the Patriarch.

She was holding the cup of milk, wondering if she should find an opportunity to ask Leonhart.

"Son, don't think about it too much. The young master might have something to take care of, so he can't eat with you."

The old butler crushed the doubts in Mellisa's mind.

But it was clear that the young master's mood had deteriorated. Even though the two of them had just shared a room together.

Could it be… Did she do anything wrong that trouble their harmony?!

The old butler couldn't find a reason why Leonard was being weird. Love is sometimes confusing.

Mellisa raised her eyes and looked at the butler with a friendly smile on her face. She averted her thoughts and smiled slightly. "Okay I understand. Thank you."

...

Since then, Leonard hadn't come out of his study all morning, and Mellisa never came out of the master bedroom.

At one o'clock in the afternoon, while Mellisa was considering going down and seeing Leonard, a message came from her cell phone.

Kevin said he wanted to meet in the back garden.

Mellisa blinked, grabbed the phone and walked out.

In the back corner of the building, Kevin was standing behind a tree waiting for him, still holding the gift box in his hands.

When Kevin saw Mellisa coming, he handed her the gift box.

"Tonight, there is a fancy dress party and the young master will also be in attendance. This outfit has been prepared for you by Mr Leonhart. The invitation is inside.. At 4:30 pm, I will personally take you there."
