My Supermodel Wife

Chapter 897 - The Time Has Come!

After a few warm words, Lockhart enjoyed a standing ovation from the audience.

After a while, he raised his hand to signal to calm down. After looking around again, he smiled apologetically. "Everyone knows that tonight is an introduction party.

"I know that many people present are very interested in jade antiques. The Adler family heard of this, and specially invited Frans, the leader of the domestic jade industry, to share it with all of you. But unfortunately, our esteemed guest arrived later due to personal reasons. Please be patient then!"

Everyone started discussing with each other.

But the atmosphere was still warm, at least the guests who were present seemed to be patient.

At this moment, Leonard, Jean and the others were standing at the back of the crowd.

Leonard narrowed his eyes and looked ahead with a cheerful look. "Sure enough, he's still very good at whetting people's appetites. He doesn't tell them the meaning of this banquet until it begins."

Although they had all received invitations beforehand, Lockhart did not elaborate on the meaning of tonight's banquet.

It seems Lockhart is pretending to be mysterious, and this is just the beginning!

Glen leaned against the table beside him and his posture seemed lazy. "First, he allowed his subordinates to discuss Frans's name among the guests and then spread it to attract everyone's curiosity. Uncle Lockhart understood very well that the price of gold was falling, which was why he instilled that jade business in this could be the solution."

Leonard raised his eyebrows lightly, not commenting!

At this moment, when Lockhart finished speaking, the atmosphere in the Flower Hall became even more heated.

Lilia heard the enthusiastic discussion about Frans from the surrounding crowd, and she curled her lips in boredom.

Jean at her side turned his head and saw that his wife looked very bored, then asked softly, "Are you feeling uncomfortable?"

Lilia shook her head, and her clear pupils passed. "It's just a little boring, and I don't know when sis Mellisa will come."

"Should be soon!" The man said in a deep voice, then wrapped his arms around her waist and suggested, "Do you want to go out for a walk?"

Lilia thought, "Sure!"

Jean complied. He gently held her waist, said goodbye to Glen and Leonard, and walked out of the banquet hall with Lilia.

Outside the garden, the atmosphere was calmer.

As dusk changed into night, the scene looked beautiful and elegant.

Lilia and the man sat in the front a nearby bench, and the occasional car driving in the parking lot would always distract them. The two sat in silence for a while, and there was the sound of footsteps behind them.

"Mr. Jean!"

This surprise call came from Lyle.

Jean and Lilia looked back at the same time, and they happened to see Michelle walking into the Hall of Flowers alone not far behind Lyle.

Obviously, they set off together.

Lyle ran towards the bench, his eyes filled with tears and a bright light.

Jean nodded slightly. "Why don't you come in?"

Lyle scratched his head, and said with a smile, "I saw you, so I came to say hello! Then… I won't bother you anymore. If anything happens, feel free to call me anytime!"

"Alright."

After Jean answered, Lyle walked back with a grin, looking at those sitting side by side.

Not paying attention to his way, Lyle bumped into someone!

He staggered back, his handsome face instantly sinking. "Lyn, you don't have eyes?"

At this time, Lyn, who also stumbled backwards, was shouted at by him, and her whole body instantly became horrified.

For no reason, she seemed restless tonight.

As soon as Lyle's cold voice fell, Lyn heard a dissatisfied rebuke. "Hey, can't you talk?!"

Michelle walked up from behind Lyn, looking rather displeased.

Upon seeing this, Lyle rolled his eyes in disdain. "Ugh, what a fool! I'm going in!"

Michelle didn't have time to say anything but Lyle had already stepped into the banquet hall.

She sighed helplessly, faced Lyn, and comforted her. "Lyn, don't mind him."

Lyn shook her head, and just as she was about to speak, she saw Lilia who turned her head and looked at her.

Michelle also directed her gaze subconsciously.

At first glance, it feels strange!

How was this woman so similar to the maid who was always beside Leonard?!

Lilia nodded towards Michelle from afar, then looked at Lyn with a deep smile.

That smile sent chills down Lyn's back, and the scene from a few days ago came back to her mind.

Lyn was eager not to start, and whispered, "Auntie, come on… let's go somewhere else to talk!"

"Okay!" Michelle suppressed the suspicion in her heart, turned around and led Lyn around the yard and headed for the backyard.

No matter what tonight would bring, she couldn't let Leonard break this marriage contract!

...

Half an hour later, Frans still hadn't come.

Lilia and Jean had also returned to the banquet hall, and a group of four people were standing together, chatting with each other.

Seeing that half of the time had passed, the guests had lost interest. Leonard raised his hand to look at his watch, the corners of his lips pouted slightly.

Glen saw it and asked, "Ready?"

Leonard nodded. "If there is a riot, please take good care of Lilia and Jean."

After he finished speaking, he paused for a moment and looked at Jean before he took a step. "In the banquet hall, all the maids with blue ribbons on their chests are our people."

After hearing this, Jean smiled warmly. "You're this eager to let them out?"

Leonard licked his teeth, and his gaze darted to look at Luke. "I've been asleep for too long, it's time to wake up."

After that, he walked into the crowd.

Glen's gaze followed Leonard, but his shoulder hit Jean. "What does that mean? Those with blue ribbons on their chests are our people? There are... 20 or 30 of them, right?"

Servants were seen everywhere in the banquet hall, most of them wearing blue ribbons on their chests.

He had prepared this many?!

Jean looked straight ahead, then said in a calm tone, "The future heir of the Adler family… he will not be oppressed again!"

Glen looked at the man for a moment, his expression a little hard to tell.

After a long time, he smacked the tip of his tongue. "So many servants, why didn't he use his own before? I thought he..."

Jean saw Glen's incomprehensible look, then he embraced Lilia in his arms. "When you have a woman, you can only understand her intentions."

How does that have anything to do with women?!

Glen chuckled, it looks like he can't underestimate the power of love anymore!
