My Supermodel Wife (For Sale!)

As they approached, Mellisa grabbed Leonard's hand and stood in front of Lilia three or two steps apart. Then she stretched out her hand and pinched her cheek. "Lilia, thank you!"

Lilia glared. "What's that for? What I said is the truth!"

Leonard watched Lilia's ridicule, pursed the corners of his lips, then looked at Jean and said, "I have prepared dinner for you in the side hall, you guys eat first. Mellisa and I still have something to deal with."

Glen raised an eyebrow. "What is it? Something wrong with Luke?"

Leonard shook his head. "It's not about them, it's about my mother. Don't you think her reaction today is very abnormal?"

"Abnormal?" Glen's face deepened. "As the host of tonight's banquet, her every word and deed on stage deeply reflects her identity. If I was an ignorant outsider, I might have thought she was your stepmother!"

This sentence was full of ridicule towards his mother, but Leonard just smiled coldly and didn't really care about it. 

Leonard then ordered his confidant to send Lilia, Jean and the others to a side hall where they could eat.

He and Mellisa were standing in the middle of the large empty banquet hall, and they could see that their mood was a bit complicated.

At this time, Lawrence, who had not left, walked over and looked at them with a smile. "Finally you made it! After today, no one in Bandung should underestimate the heir to the Adler family!"

Leonard sighed and punched him in the shoulder laughing. "Thanks for today!"

"Why are you being so polite with me, it's disgusting you know! But if you're really grateful, next time don't ask for my help again and again!"

Then he threw the report in his hand. "Keep this report to yourself. This is my testimony of the abolition of the Adler family's criteria for selecting a daughter-in-law! Speaking of Luke, do you need to enlist my father's help to suppress him?"

The Blains had internal members who held important positions in the police department.

Since they had reached this point, Lawrence didn't mind helping Leonard in exacerbating Lockhart and Luke's situation.

"No. That won't be necessary!" Leonard accepted the report, his eyes slightly cold. "Even if they don't do anything, they won't come out so easily.

Lawrence raised his eyebrows suspiciously. "What makes you this confident? It's hard to convict drug smuggling without concrete evidence."

At this moment, Leonard noticed the gaze cast by Mellisa from his side. He looked to the side, and said with a cold smile, "Why do you think there is no evidence? The drug should be in Lockhart's body by now and they've definitely found it!"

Lawrence squeezed his neck and said, "Fuck, what did you say?"

Leonard raised his eyebrows comfortably, but didn't say much. Instead, he gently pushed him away. "It's getting late, you go back first."

Lawrence who saw Leonard turned and left. "..."

He didn't want to answer!

Leonard raised the corners of his lips with a deep look. After noticing Mellisa's expression, he bent down and pressed his handsome face. "Do you want to know about it?"

Mellisa glanced at the report in his hand and asked. "Of course!"

Leonard looked at Mellisa's eyebrows indulgently, and raised his finger as he walked towards the Hall of Flowers. 

On the way, he briefly explained the situation. It all happened when the servants ran into Lockhart, and their attention was diverted. Leonard took the opportunity to put some illegal drugs into Lockhart's suit!

Since he wanted to thoroughly settle this matter, of course he would not leave them a chance to fight back.

In the inner room, Leonard opened the door with Mellisa.

Under the shining crystal chandelier, Michelle stood alone by the window looking up at the night sky outside.

The Flower Hall had several interior rooms for receptions, Leonhart and Frans were chatting in the next room at the moment.

When Michelle heard the door open behind her, her shoulders shook inadvertently.

She didn't turn around or make a move, but she said in a low voice, "You're here!"

Leonard closed the door with his hand and raised his eyes to see Michelle's back. He happened to see himself and Mellisa from the reflection of the bright window.

Leonard didn't speak. He pulled out a chair for him and Mellisa. After a long sigh he finally said, "Mother, can you tell me how you feel? What really happened to you?" 

From the time he was little until now, Leonard has always respected Michelle.

It may be due to the lack of love from his father during his youth, that the attention Michelle has given him has become a warm family affection for which he is always grateful.

But his mother broke the impression that had stuck with him for years tonight....

The mixture of anger and disappointment washed over Leonard's nerves.

He actually didn't know how to deal with Michelle.

Today, his mother, who supported him to dare to live and work in Jakarta, suddenly turned into his enemy.

In the silent inner room, except for the sound of the wind blowing from the half-opened window, there was no other sound.

Michelle didn't speak for a long time, she just stood still and never turned to look at them.

After a while, Leonard's patience was running out.

Now, Michelle is finally taking action.

She turned around slowly, her graceful face not showing the slightest bit of expression. "What do you want to hear?"

Leonard collided with her eyes, and said bluntly, "I want to know why you defended Lyn so hard earlier. Why did you scold me and not defend me? How big is your love for her? Is it in your heart that I'm not your child anymore?"

Michelle blinked her eyes, calmly looking at Leonard. "Is there any meaning in asking this now? You used your own power to turn the Adlers' banquet into the greatest joke ever. Let me ask, what was all that for? Just for that woman beside you? Do you think it's all worth it?"

After the words fell, Mellisa frowned hard.

She didn't like Michelle's words, it's as if she wanted to blame everything that had happened to her.

Melissa glanced lightly at Leonard, who had wrinkles between his brows.

Melissa spread her hands on the table, clapped her palms, and said without changing her face, "There are many things that have happened in families Adler tonight, but how could you see that as a joke?"

"Don't you see I'm talking to my son? You better not interfere!"

Michelle's attitude towards Melissa was obvious, and even if she knew her current identity, she still didn't give her a good face.

After seeing this, Mellisa tapped the table with her fingertips, her eyes blank. "You seem to be pushing all the blame into me, can't I just defend myself with a few words? You say that you are a mother and Leonard your son, but what happened on stage just now did not reflect what you have said."

When those words ended, Leonard smiled and nodded. He looked at Mellisa beside him with warm eyes.

Melissa defended him!

Michelle scowled, stood up with a calm expression and said, "As a junior of the Mayer family, did your grandfather teach you to oppose and question elders?"
