My Supermodel Wife (For Sale!)

That affectionate call made Lilia's body freeze. She slowly turned her head and stared at Jean. The man who always looked handsome now looked tired. Jean's face was wrinkled and there were dark circles under his eyes, showing that he hadn't slept all night.

"What happened to me?" Lilia asked, but her voice was hoarse and nasal. Her throat felt dry and rough as if she had swallowed sand.

Jean poured a glass of warm water from the thermos that was on the table. Then he helped Lilia sit down before handing her the glass.

"You had a high fever last night." Jean said briefly.

After Lilia finished the water in the glass, her throat felt better. She touched her forehead to check her temperature, "Looks like my fever has gone down." Lilia said while returning the glass to Jean.

Jean put it on the table, then he also reached out and touched Lilia's forehead with the back of his hand. He nodded when he felt Lilia's temperature had returned to normal.

"Doctor Lucas said you just got the flu. Last night you insisted on refusing to get shots, so I had to cover you with a thick blanket so you sweat and bring your fever down." Jean explained.

Lilia wasn't surprised when she heard that. She rarely got sick, but she always had a fever whenever she caught a cold, "Sorry about that. My dad used to tell me that I was weak and sickly when I was a kid. I always went to the hospital every three months, so I had trauma from the injection."

Jean nodded, "Doctor Lucas said the same thing. Your body is prone to fever, so you have to be more careful." Jean took Lilia's hand and kissed her, "Don't make me worried anymore, okay?"

Lilia could hear the concern and worry in the man's voice. She gave a weak smile as she nodded, "I promise." Lilia said sincerely.

Jean stared at the woman intently for a moment. After he was sure that Lilia meant what she said, Jean breathed a sigh of relief. He reached out and pulled Lilia into his arms.

Jean realized that he was not the type to talk sweet. He tended to save words. For this reason, Jean always tried to express his feelings through actions. He hoped that he could convey his love clearly to Lilia.

Lilia put her head against Jean's chest. The sound of Jean's steady and strong heartbeat echoed in her ears. For Lilia, the safest place in the whole world was in Jean's arms. The man was like a big tree that protected her from anything that tried to hurt her.

But that feeling of comfort didn't last long. Lilia stretched, trying to get away from that man, "Jean, my body is sticky all because of sweat. Let me take a shower first, then…"

Lilia immediately stopped her sentence when she remembered something. Didn't she take a shower last night when she arrived at the villa? Lilia only remembered that she wanted to close her eyes for a moment while soaking in the warm bath, then she lost consciousness. What happened then?!

The woman looked down and studied the blue nightgown she was wearing. The dress was made of thin silk and felt comfortable against her skin. Previously, Lilia didn't have time to think about the dress she was wearing because she was focused on the flu. But now she just realized that she had never seen these clothes before. Perhaps…?!

Lilia's body turned stiff when she heard Jean's small laugh. She slowly raised her face and stared at the man.

"What is wrong?" Jean asked lightly, but his lips curled into a smile full of meaning.

"Last night ... Last night ..." Lilia stuttered, but she couldn't finish her sentence, 'Did you take me out of the bathroom?'

Lilia's face turned bright red as she imagined such an embarrassing situation. She lowered her head and refused to look at Jean.

The man's smile grew wider as he observed Lilia's embarrassed face. He could guess what the woman was currently thinking. Jean decided to give an answer to Lilia's unspoken question.

"If you talk about last night, I found you passed out in the tub when I got home." Jean said calmly.

But his words indicated that he had seen Lilia's naked body back then. He was also the one who put this nightgown on Lilia.

Hearing that, Lilia was so embarrassed that the tips of her ears turned red too. She moved away from Jean and hid herself under the thick blanket.

Lilia could hear Jean laughing through the blanket that covered her head. She started digging up her memory about last night's incident. Lilia wondered if she did other embarrassing things while sleeping, like delirium or something.

Lilia's reverie ended when she felt Jean trying to pull the blanket off. She hurriedly strengthened her grip and held onto the blanket. She wasn't ready to show her face to Jean!

Lilia didn't know how long the tug-of-war lasted until finally Jean took off the blanket. She felt the bed move as the weight of Jean's body disappeared. Lilia slowly lowered the blanket and peeked outside. She saw the figure of the man standing beside the bed stretching his body.

Lilia lifted her blanket and asked hesitantly, "What are you going to do after this?"

"Go to the office." Jean replied lightly, "Isn't it the duty of a husband to provide for his wife?"

Lilia's face turned red at those words, but worry filled her eyes. Didn't that man stay up all night? Normal people would not be able to do activities properly if they didn't sleep at all! Why did Jean still intend to go to the office as if he was alright?

Without thinking, Lilia reached out and caught the man's arm, "Do you have to go to the office?" Lilia asked worriedly.

Jean looked at Lilia in surprise. Then he smiled softly, "You don't want me to go?" He tempted her.

Lilia nodded, "You didn't rest at all last night. If you go, you'd make mistakes at your work. What would you do if you got fired for that?" Lilia jokingly asked.

Jean chuckled at her joke. No one in his office was brave enough to fire the president and owner of the company.

"If you have to go to the office, at least get some sleep first." Lilia suggested.

"Okay, I'll go to bed first then." Jean leaned over and kissed Lilia on the forehead, "Are you hungry? Should I make something before I go to sleep?" The man offered.

Lilia shook her head while pulling Jean onto the bed, "I'm not hungry, really. I just want you to rest now." Lilia said. She felt that if she agreed to Jean's offer, the workaholic man would not rest.

After Lilia insisted, Jean finally relented and laid down beside her. The man's handsome face showed signs of exhaustion. Even though Jean didn't say anything, Lilia knew that her husband was up all night just to take care of her.

When Lilia enveloped Jean, she realized that the man was still wearing his office clothes, "Umm… do you want to change into your pajamas before going to bed?" She was worried that Jean would not sleep well in those clothes.

"No need." Jean reached out and pulled Lilia into his arms, "As long as you are here with me, I don't need anything." He whispered.

Lilia's heart skipped a beat as she smelled Jean's familiar scent. The mixture of cigarette and fresh scents that reminded Lilia of spring tickled her nose. Without realizing it, her fingers played the buttons on Jean's shirt. This was Lilia's habit when she was nervous or thinking about something.

This time, Lilia was deep in thought. She just realized that she knew almost nothing about Jean Widjaya. Lilia didn't know what that guy used to do in his spare time. She didn't know what kind of food Jean liked. Lilia also just found out that this man always wore his pajamas before going to sleep.

Lilia felt that Jean knew all about her, but she didn't know anything about him. It was at times like this that Lilia felt jealous of Sasha as Jean's childhood friend. That woman must know a lot about what Jean liked or disliked. Sasha also knew what Jean's childhood was like. Even so, Lilia didn't want to lose to that woman. She decided to try to get to know Jean more by asking the people closest to him, like Kenny or his friends.

Actually Lilia would get the answer right away if she asked Jean directly. But she also didn't want to lose to Jean who could know everything without even asking her. Of course, that was because Jean made use of the Widjaya Family's information network to investigate Lilia. The day Lilia realized that was far in the future.

Lilia's hand continued to play with the buttons on Jean's shirt until she accidentally opened it.

"Ah!" Lilia was shocked when her hand touched Jean's chest directly. She could feel the warmth of his skin and his hard muscles.

Before Lilia could pull her hand away, Jean had already caught her wrist. The man sighed while placing Lilia's hand on his waist.

"Don't move. If you move too much, I won't be able to sleep." Jean said in a low voice.

Lilia nodded and didn't try to move again. At first, Lilia thought that she wouldn't be able to fall asleep easily because she had slept all night. However, she slept poorly last night due to a fever, so Lilia fell asleep in just a few moments.

Jean could hear Lilia's steady breathing up from close. He lowered his gaze and studied the sleeping face of the woman who looked so peaceful. Jean smiled with satisfaction when he saw her sleep. The man closed his eyes and let the sleep take over.

They both slept for approximately 4 hours.

When Lilia opened her eyes again, it was already daytime.
