My Supermodel Wife (For Sale!)

"Mellisa…" Janice called out her daughter's name while sobbing.

She stepped forward and wanted to hug Mellisa, but she was stopped by two people beside Mellisa. Mellisa was currently seriously injured. If Janice carelessly hugged her, the woman could faint instantly.

Janice bit her lip, then she stretched out her trembling hand. She slowly stroked Mellisa's cheek. Janice was shocked when she felt that her daughter's skin was very cold, as if she had just come out of an ice chest.

Richard looked at Mellisa with a serious face. His hands that were tightly clenched at the side of his body revealed the man's emotions. "Mellisa, what's really going on here?"

Mellisa laughed somewhat self-deprecatingly, but she didn't say anything.

Leonard and Lilia exchanged glances, then the two teamed up to carry Mellisa into the hall. They headed to the chairs to the right of the conference table so Mellisa could sit down immediately.

The conflicting thoughts of Mellisa's death and resurrection still filled everyone's minds.

Trisa rubbed her arm as shock filled her face. She couldn't stop herself and muttered in a low voice, "Is this... a human or a ghost? She suddenly appeared in the middle of the night and scared people to death!"

Hearing Trisa's words, Lilia, who had just put Mellisa down, turned to the woman. Her gaze was full of anger. She wouldn't let an outsider like her slander Mellisa!

Lilia straightened up and crossed her arms. "Mrs. Janice has confirmed herself that Ms. Mellisa is her daughter, and she is still alive. If Mrs. Trisa doesn't believe in Ms. Mellisa's judgment, you can try to touch Ms. Mellisa herself," she said firmly. Then the corner of Lilia's mouth lifted into a defiant smile. "Unless you are too scared to do that?"

Trisa's face turned stiff when she heard that. She narrowed her eyes at Lilia with an angry gaze, but she didn't say anything more. If Trisa accepted Lilia's challenge to touch Mellisa, it would be like saying that Janice was lying. But if Trisa refused, she would be too scared to try. So Trisa chose to keep quiet.

Mellisa reached out and patted the back of Lilia's hand, gesturing to her not to get angry. Then she turned to Janice and Richard, who were still standing still.

The woman took a deep breath, trying to calm down before saying, "Father, Mother… sit down first,"

Compared to the overzealous Janice, Richard still maintained his composure. After hearing Mellisa's words, the man took Janice back to her seat without a word. Even so, his eyes were still on Mellisa's from time to time.

Coming back from death was a story too great in today's world itself. Nor did Richard ignore what Mellisa had just said to Leila.

After a while, everyone had taken their seats again. Lilia and Leonard sat on Mellisa's left and right, guarding her tightly.

Mellisa slowly glanced at Leila, who was still kneeling on the floor with her head bowed. Then she said calmly, "My dear sister, didn't you say that you missed me so much? Why didn't you come to greet me when I came back? Hmm?"

On closer inspection, Leila's body trembled violently. Her face was pale and filled with panic, as if the world was about to end. No matter how much she prepared herself, she never expected that Mellisa would still be alive.

On the other hand, Simon was watching everything that was going on with a watchful eye. Even though he was more than 70 years old, his brain was still as sharp as ever. Simon could vaguely understand what was going on here.

When Simon heard Mellisa's words, he noticed Leila's reaction. When the young woman didn't move, Simon spoke up. "Leila, did you not hear what your sister said? Get up from there and greet her properly," he said firmly.

Meanwhile, Sylvia and Robert were both speechless. Their faces were serious and nervous. All the calm they had shown earlier had now disappeared without a trace.

Leila supported her hands on the floor and tried to get up, but she immediately fell again with a sore knee.

Trisa couldn't take it anymore. She got up from her chair and stepped forward to help Leila. But the woman had only taken a step when she heard Mellisa's words.

"Aunt Trisa still really loves her niece, huh," Mellisa said in a sarcastic tone. "My parents haven't even moved to help Leila, but you immediately moved. Are you sure Leila isn't really your child?"

Trisa's steps immediately stopped. She looked around awkwardly. She just realized that now was not the right time to help Leila.

Mellisa nodded with satisfaction to see Trisa stop walking. Then she turned her attention back to Leila, who was still struggling on the floor.

"My dear sister, why don't you come here immediately?" She called once again. "Or maybe you hope I will die again, so you can get Lilia as my replacement? Too bad, Lilia is too good for you. I will not give her to you," Mellisa had absolutely no mercy on Leila as she uttered those sharp words.

As soon as Mellisa finished speaking, Leonard patted the back of her hand with an unhappy expression. "Don't talk nonsense! Who will let you die again after saving you huh?"

Lilia nodded in agreement. "Inspector Leonard is right, don't talk nonsense! Besides, I'm not something you can give to anyone!"

Mellisa could only shut her mouth after being scolded by the two people.

After a while, Leila finally got up from the floor on her hands and feet. She's wearing a snow-white dress today. When she got up, her knees were faintly marked in red. Maybe she kneeled too hard, so she staggered a few times before she could finally stand firm.

Leila then moved step by step towards Mellisa. She wiped her tears and smiled broadly.

"Sis Mellisa, I am very relieved that you are not dead yet," Leila said smoothly, as if she wasn't surprised earlier.

However, Mellisa and Lilia both knew the meaning behind that sentence. Leila was actually saying, 'Why aren't you dead yet, huh?'

"I was very…"

With a loud slamming sound, the bag of documents that Leonard was carrying landed into Leila's face. The culprit, of course, was Mellisa. The woman was fed up of hearing Leila's nonsense and grabbed the bag, then threw it with all her might.

The bag and Leila both fell to the floor with a loud sound.

"Le-Leila!"

"Mellisa!"

Two calls came from Richard and Janice as they witnessed this incident.

In the end, Leila was still the child most loved by the whole Irwan family. Mellisa's current actions reminded them of that fact again.

Seeing this scene, Lilia's face turned cold. She felt sad and depressed for Mellisa. It's no wonder that in the last five years, Mellisa had preferred to live alone rather than return to the Irwan family home. Lilia didn't know if it's because the Irwan Family was too easy to trick, or because Leila's disguise was too perfect.

Whatever the reason, living together with Leila was definitely not easy.

After Mellisa threw the document bag, she immediately groaned and frowned. Moving carelessly like that made the wound open again.. It did hurt, but what made it even worse were the cries of her parents.
