My Supermodel Wife (For Sale!)

The sound of the harmonious conversation and the frenzy of the party could still be heard from where Lilia and the other three were currently standing. But somehow, only the atmosphere in this place was different. As if this place was isolated from the outside world.

Under the bright moonlight, there was only silence in this serene green garden. The words coming out of Robert and Sylvia as they blamed Lilia made the atmosphere even more uncomfortable.

Fortunately, Richard was a man who had dealt with double-faced people for years. Even if he felt uncomfortable, he was still polite and friendly to his business partner.

Richard said to Robert, "Yes, please don't blame Miss Lilia. It's true that you two have helped my daughter and the Irwan family is really grateful for that. Mr. Robert and Mrs. Sylvia, shall we go to the back hall and have a cup of tea together?"

Even though Sylvia was cruel and not shrewd enough, she still sensed that something was wrong with Richard's words. Could it be that the man realized something?

The woman immediately gave Lilia a blaming look. This predicament must have been caused by that damn kid!

Sylvia chuckled, then she stepped back and stood next to Robert. "Mr. Richard, we and Miss Leila just happened to meet on the side of the road. It's not that big deal for Mr. Richard to need to thank us. Please don't listen to this silly kid," Sylvia emphasized.

Richard frowned again when he heard Sylvia putting down her own daughter. However, the woman seemed oblivious to this.

Sylvia continued, "Besides, it's quite late at the moment. We are planning to return to Surabaya soon, so unfortunately we can't accompany Mr. Richard to tea,"

Robert also nodded at the right time. "Mr. Richard, our daughter is still innocent and ignorant. The Pangestu family also did not seek the Irwan Family's gratitude when we helped Miss Leila. Don't take it too seriously," he supported his wife's words.

Lilia stood still, listening to Robert and Sylvia blaming everything on her. A part of her wanted to laugh, but Lilia's heart felt cold as ice.

It seemed that the last glimmer of hope Lilia had for her parents was completely blown away by disappointment. When her hopes were crushed, only sorrow and bitterness remained. Lilia lowered her gaze, trying to hide the pain in her gaze.

The man who was trying to hold back his anger beside Lilia turned out to be her real father. But they didn't know each other. On the other hand, the man who tried to blame her for everything was a father figure who had educated and raised her over the years.

At this time, Lilia just wanted to get away from this place and take the time to regroup her emotions. Her mind felt chaotic, while her chest tightened with disappointment and sadness. Even so, Lilia clenched her fists and lifted her chin high.

She couldn't run away now. There was someone who needed her to stay strong and carry out her plan to the end, no matter what. Her sibling, Mellisa, trusted Lilia to solve this.

Lilia cleared her throat to clear her thoughts She blinked her eyes, trying to shake off the pooling tears. Then she turned to Richard, who was standing beside her.

The woman bowed politely and said, "Uncle Richard, forgive me for bothering you. I was too hasty and didn't think much,"

Richard's eyes widened when he heard that. He reached out and grabbed Lilia's shoulder. "Miss Lilia, there isn't a single thing that makes you need to apologize to me," He said firmly. "I don't blame you at all!"

Then he turned to the waiter waiting behind him and ordered, "Get Hardy over here."

"Yes sir," the servant hurriedly went into the greenhouse.

Robert and Sylvia glared at the waiter, as if to stop her. But they didn't dare do anything in front of Richard.

Richard turned his gaze towards Robert and Sylvia. "Since the two of you are already here, let us the Irwan family welcome you properly. Please rest and drink tea in the back hall,"

Before either Robert or Sylvia could protest, Richard immediately went on with his words.

"After we discuss a few things, I will send you to the airport in person. That way, this will not delay your trip," he stressed.

Having said all that, Richard turned around. The butler of the Irwan Family then approached him. Richard whispered a few words to him and Hardy nodded repeatedly.

Then Hardy glanced over Richard's shoulder. The moment he saw Robert and Sylvia, the butler's expression turned surprised. Weren't they the ones who sneaked into Leila's room at the hospital?! So it was this married couple causing the commotion that night!

Now Hardy knew that this was a serious situation. He didn't hesitate anymore and walked calmly to Robert.

"Please follow me, Mr. Robert, Mrs. Sylvia." Hardy said politely before raising his hand. He beckoned the guards blocking the garden gate. Hardy intended to escort the married couple to the back hall along with the bodyguards.

Robert and Sylvia clearly wanted to dodge, but the eight bodyguards at the garden gate simultaneously took one step forward. Their cold expressions seemed to ask, 'Did you want us to go alone or drag us away?'

It was clear that they had no choice but to follow Hardy's instructions!

Even though Sylvia was feeling very reluctant in her heart, she could only grit her teeth and endure it. Before leaving, Sylvia gave Lilia a cruel look.

"Damn brat, come with us!" Sylvia's order washarsh. Her tone was sharp and absurd.

Richard, who was walking back to the greenhouse, suddenly stopped. The anger that he had been enduring had almost exploded when he heard that. Richard could tolerate Robert and Sylvia blaming Lilia for bringing him here, but that's no excuse for treating their own daughter that badly!

Just as Richard was about to turn around and unleashed his anger at Sylvia, a male figure walked quickly past him. The man immediately pulled Lilia into his arms without hesitation. His cold eyes brushed over the figures of Robert and Sylvia, who seemingly froze at the sight.

Jean Widjaya said in an indisputable tone, "She's going there, but not now."

Sylvia looked into the man's cold eyes, and her body automatically shrank. Jean looked like a possessive tyrant that no one could resist. But Sylvia mustered up her courage and forced a big smile on her face.

"Jean, I know you guys are married, but Lilia is still our daughter. Surely you don't mind if we have something to say to her!" Sylvia tried to persuade the man.

Robert nodded too. "Lilia, how about you come and talk to us for a bit? After that, you can immediately go back to Jean," he persuaded in a fatherly voice. During this time, Lilia would immediately obey him whenever Robert used this voice.

But before Lilia could speak, Jean hugged her even tighter and turned around. His attitude seemed to protect Lilia from the two people.

He turned towards the pair of the Pangestu Family and said nonchalantly, "Since you guys just wanted to chat, couldn't you do it later?"

Then Jean gave a signal to the Irwan Family bodyguards, who were still standing around there. They immediately caught what Jean wanted and immediately moved to block Robert and Sylvia's view.

One of the bodyguards said in a dignified voice, "Please come with us!"

Until the time they were escorted away by the guards, Robert and Sylvia still didn't know why they had been taken to the back hall.
