Chapter 689 - The Mayer Family's Love Bonds
"Alright, I just wanted to say this. I realize I was wrong. Lilia, I'm sorry. I didn't come here to accept your forgiveness, I hope this can make up for some wrongs."
Robert put the microphone in his hand back on the table, bowed deeply at Lilia in apology, then walked off the stage staggering, leaving everyone staring at his old, decadent back.
He leaves with tears in his eyes and sorrow.
Lilia didn't follow, but stared at the direction he was leaving for a long time.
Perhaps, this is their last meeting in this life.
He endured all the blasphemy, and from now on, he will be rejected by thousands of people.
Not long after, no one in Surabaya saw Robert and Sylvia again.
...
After Robert left, there was a long silence in the conference hall.
Everyone looked at the door, feeling strange and complicated.
They didn't know whether to say that the Pangestu Family was to blame or not.
They don't even care about friendship for money. If Robert's conscience isn't found today, Lilia's reputation in the circle might be hard to recover.
At this moment, Lilia was still standing on the stage in a daze. However, Dennis also stepped forward in time.
He walked over to her and tapped her on the shoulder as a form of comfort. "Lilia, come back and sit down."
Lilia looked into her uncle's worried eyes, nodded slightly, and walked over to Jean after getting off.
The man opened his palm and held her finger for a moment, only to find her palm cold.
He pulled Lilia to his side, gently squeezed her stiff fingers. "With this, it's all over."
Lilia tried to restrain herself, and smiled at him a little.
After today, her reputation has been restored, but the Pangestu family will bear the shame for thousands of years.
At this time, after Dennis took over, Chris and Harold also took the opportunity to climb down the stairs.
At this moment, the famous diplomat spoke in front of the people, and the place was immediately silent.
Such scenes are rare.
Dennis looked at everyone with sharp eyes and sighed. "Well, I believe everyone has a clear understanding of the ins and outs of everything. I am here today to show the public one thing. Maybe everyone has guessed that I want to introduce Lilia as the daughter of my Mayer family. Starting today, she will also change her name to Lilia Mayer. It doesn't matter what her past is, but the love and bonds of our family are very sincere to her. If possible, we want to forget her dark past. And lastly, everything that had happened was the misfortune that befell the two families. But fortunately, we have succeeded in recovering our daughter, and the Pangestu family will also be punished for their actions. After today's question and answer session, I hope there will be no more fuss. Give Lilia the justice she deserves."
After that, the media could not help but raise his hand, but Dennis shook his head. "I did not accept any questions. Everyone from the Mayer family is here today and we have come just to clear Lilia's name. I am sure that the two and half an hour question and answer session was enough for all of you to write your story. Once again, on behalf of the Mayer family, I thank you for being here, bye!"
Dennis said the closing words. The media still wanted to ask questions, but when Dennis's voice fell, the staff and bodyguards were outside the entrance and started cleaning up the scene.
This conference has ended.
This conference was held to respond to the public in the form of interview sessions.
Lilia's name was once again pushed to the top of public opinion, but the direction of the wind was completely different from the previous few days.
As the reporters left the room, the large conference hall suddenly looked empty and quiet.
Lilia sat next to Jean, pressed the tip of her nose and touched her cheek with the back of her hand, feeling a little hot.
Although this conference is not just sharing opinions, it is still tiring to answer so many questions from journalists.
The man was well aware of her discomfort, and looked at her to the side with his worried eyes. "What's wrong? Are you feeling uncomfortable?"
Lilia smiled and shook her head. She saw that her grandfather had stood up, and she was also standing. "Grandpa, why are you here?"
She suppressed unnecessary emotions, and as she walked over to Caleb, she asked in a pleased tone.
The old man looked at her and hummed. "If I hadn't come, wouldn't that mean I would let the immoral media keep bothering you? If it weren't for your uncle who repeatedly asked me not to talk more on stage, I would have been abusing these entertainment media for a long time. They're freaks… They might want to write bad news about my granddaughter again! This is a huge humiliation for the Mayer family!"
The old man watched the entire press conference in silence, and after there was no one else, he was very upset at this time.
Lilia saw the look of her grandfather who was ready for battle and quickly tried to calm him down. "Grandfather, you're a dignified former general, how can I make you bother dealing with such troublesome media! Our Mayer family is not that weak!"
Hearing this, Caleb became somewhat serious, and nodded at her. "You are indeed my granddaughter!"
"Grandfather, since it's over, it's better ..."
Before she could finish her words, Lilia suddenly trembled, her whole body was shaking.
The old man was dumbfounded. "Lilia? What's wrong? Mellisa, Dennis, come here!"
After his call, Mellisa and the others turned and walked quickly. At this time, Lilia was dizzy and fell into Jean's embrace.
Since she passed out, the whole place went into chaos once again.
Jean then sent her to Minerva Hospital as quickly as possible.
The old man and the others also went with the Widjaya family together.
Chris and Harold stayed behind to take care of the location of the event.
In the car, the man's expression was deep and serious. He didn't dare to let go of his wife's hand. Clifford was driving fast, but there was a continuous shuffling sound from the back seat. "Hurry!"
He felt that Lilia was in danger. Her hands were very cold, but her skin was very red.
This question and answer meeting lasted almost two and half an hour, he understood how difficult it was.
Lilia didn't want her to look mentally or physically tired, so she stubbornly chose to keep smiling and respond positively.
The man hugged her, the tips of his fingers pressed against her slightly hot brows, and a worried sigh escaped the corners of his mouth.
...
Minerva Hospital, in the luxurious ward on the top floor at 7.30 that night, the doctors were seen doing various examinations on Lilia.
There are many familiar faces, including Doctor Marco from the surgery section and Doctor Elva from the obstetrics and gynecology section.
The final examination concluded that she was overworked and had a fever due to the cold.
At the door of the ward, everyone from the Mayer family anxiously awaited the result.
When doctor Elva came out, she saw Caleb's figure and was momentarily stunned. Her eyes wandered and caught Dennis's figure, and her heart was getting harder and harder to calm.
This diplomat… She knows him!
Is Lilia the daughter of a big family?
Doctor Elva is usually very busy, and she doesn't pay much attention to entertainment news on the Internet, so she doesn't know much about the recent news regarding Lilia.
