My Supermodel Wife

Chapter 688 - What’s Inside Robert’s Heart

At this point, Robert was laughing at himself.

He stretched out his hand and touched his eyes, and then looked at Lilia. "Everyone knows that Lilia is a well-known artist, so my wife and I thought that this kid must have so much money. After this idea came up, we discussed planning a press conference with various accusations. You must be asking why we didn't go straight asking Lilia for money, but using this method instead, right?"

Someone answered loudly, "Yes!"

That's strange!

The impact of that press conference made people all over the world suspect that Lilia was an unfilial and selfish child.

Normal people would think that her adoptive parents were at the brink of death and were forced to use such an extreme method to seek justice.

At this time, Robert heard the screams from the audience and lowered his head faintly. He sighed in a daze. "The reason we are doing this is because my wife and I personally chased away Lilia from home. We found our real daughter, and we felt that Lilia was no longer needed in our life. After doing something so vile to her, how can we still ask her for money under this premise?"

The Pangestu Family expelled Lilia?

The media was surprised when they heard it. It turns out that the family expelled Lilia and held a press conference to rake in the money.

What an absolutely terrible drama!

Robert looked straight into the eyes of the audience filled with humiliation and ridicule.

Seeing this, his heart gradually becomes quieter.

This is the effect he wanted.

For him, all of this is worth it.

Robert swallowed, endured his physical discomfort and told the truth. "As for all the people criticizing Lilia for cutting ties with us after she got married, it is actually nonsense. Precisely, the marriage itself is my own doing. You know why? Because the family fell into an economic crisis. I can only send my daughter to get married and get a billion as the dowry from the Widjaya family."

"It is all the price I asked them to help with the Pangestu family's crisis. I feel it is very natural because I have raised this daughter so well, and that her marriage can benefit my family. The Widjaya family has given enough sincerity to the marriage. Lilia was lucky enough to meet Jean Widjaya as her husband.? As for the 100 million transfer in my wife's account, it was actually a hoax for everyone. We are not stupid and I know that people suspect us. So I pretended to transfer 100 million and let all of you think that we were bought or threatened by someone else. Only in this way can we portray ourselves as victims!"

Lilia lowered her head while standing at the side.

She suddenly understood one thing. This father didn't even seem to know the press conference that was being held by Sylvia.

Otherwise, he wouldn't have explained the hundred million in such a tone.

"Mr. Robert, you say that this is a form of your conscience, have you thought about it from start to finish?"

Someone shouted in disdain, while Robert looked at the stage calmly. "Humans are opportunistic creatures. I am a businessman, in front of money, conscience is nothing."

These words left people speechless.

"Of course, I would like to apologize to the public and everyone else, for being the victim of this carefully planned fraud. As for all the responsibility and the consequences, I am willing to bear it."

"Mr. Robert, because of this unreasonable accusation of your family, the reputation of Lilia and the company has fallen victim, do you intend to replace it? Or did you come here only to confess your sins?"

These words came from Chris.

Robert turned and saw him who was still sitting in front of the stage. He pursed his lips. "If you need compensation, the Pangestu family will compensate you even if we have to sell our entire treasure!"

Chris just snorted and said nothing.

He was an outsider who had heard of the Pangestu family's experiences, but he couldn't understand what the couple was up to.

Even if there really was no family relationship to maintain, could it be that his relationship with Lilia over the past two decades was not as good as the real daughter who appeared halfway through?

At this time, Robert understood Chris' disdainful expression, so he retracted his gaze, and finally added one more detail. "There is so much to say, so you don't need to doubt my purpose in coming here today. The reason why I am standing here in public is because I have found my conscience. I also just found out today that Lilia has secretly paid all my hospitalization costs. The Pangestu family bankruptcy protection has not been approved. And because of an accident, I had to be hospitalized and I had no money to pay. The response from the hospital at that time was that a certain charity allocated their money to save me."

"I tolerate that because I have no other choice but to accept the excuse. Can you imagine how I felt when I saw the bill being paid by my own adopted daughter? When we chose to expel Lilia from our house, we didn't even look back. And now, when I'm dying and sick, she's still paying attention and secretly paying my hospital bills. When I discovered this fact, I felt that I owed Lilia the most in this life."

At this point, Robert was already choking on tears.

To outsiders, his tears now looked more like crocodile tears.

But Lilia knew very well that every sentence and every word coming out of Robert's lips sincerely came from the bottom of his heart.

For many years living in the family Pangestu, Robert has always loved her.

Every time she and Sylvia had a conflict, Robert came to defend her.

Whenever she was sad, Robert always came to comfort her.

But they had to separate in the end because of Leila's problem, and so the relationship between father and daughter had to end.

But after all, Robert is a good person, so Lilia secretly helped him.

Today, he dragged his sick body, standing in front of her and everyone, shouldering all the responsibility and ridicule, just to clear his name.

That's... ridiculous!

As for Sylvia, she was a total jerk who's really not worth the effort.

Lilia looked away from Robert's face. The warm memories of her and the scene before her had torn her heart apart.

She always felt like trash in the eyes of the Pangestu family, but because of Robert's words, she felt a shallow warmth in her heart.

At that time, a reporter asked, "Mr. Robert, has Leila been involved in this incident?"

In an instant, Robert's expression became very stiff.

The media has a keen sense. Even though Robert admitted everything, he never mentioned Leila's name.

Her popularity on the Internet is now very high. This is all the latest news and the media cannot let it go.

Robert paused and answered in a flat tone, "She wasn't involved, everything was only planned by my wife and I. But ... I will never admit her as my daughter in this life. For her, the Pangestu family is not good enough to make her acknowledge us."
