My Supermodel Wife

Hearing this, Chris casually replied, "Waiting for you, our rooms are all next door."

They plan to gather in Jean's room before the event begins.

Lilia opened the door with her room card, and everyone rushed in.

The room is a suite type, has a large living room, a sofa placed in the middle, also various fruits and drinks that are placed on the table.

Everyone sat as they pleased, then Chris glanced at the closed door and said, "How? How do you feel about today's banquet?"

When he asked, he looked at Jean.

The man raised his eyebrows slightly, folded his legs, and made a graceful comment. "He's really trying hard!"

Alex agrees. "I can see it! I heard that the Ricardos sent more than 20 private cars to the airport today.. They don't even hesitate to rent all the rooms at this hotel. Tsk tsk tsk..."

Chris narrowed his eyes, licked the corners of his lips, and said with a sneer, "In my opinion, Ricky's words are utterly unbelievable."

When the words fell, no one spoke.

Lilia sat steadily beside her husband, watching the layout of the room with great interest.

Pausing for a moment, Alex asked, "Are your families coming?"

"All members of the extended family in Surabaya have been invited, I also heard Alan accepted the invitation!"

When he heard Alan's name, the smile on Chris's handsome face thickened a little.

The inconspicuous shaking sound of a cell phone came from the man's coat pocket.

Lilia was beside him, and she clearly felt the rhythm of the vibration.

She indirectly noticed Jean's motion in taking out the phone, which seemed to be getting a message.

Lilia didn't really care about it, but Jean suddenly turned the screen of his cellphone to her.

Lilia glanced at him, and when her eyes fell onto the screen, she was momentarily stunned.

The news from Clifford: Alice has arrived in Yogyakarta.

Lilia raised her eyes in surprise and, running into the man's gaze, the corners of her mouth moved. She stopped talking at once.

Alice also came to Yogyakarta?!

She can't believe it!

At the same time, her arrival in Yogyakarta was too suspicious.

The man pulled back the phone and answered only with two words, "Stay tuned!"

Once the message was sent, Lilia's heart could no longer calm down.

Since Alice first appeared in Surabaya, she has not known her intentions until now.

She only hoped that she arrived with good intentions!

At this moment, there was an inexplicable silence in the living room.

The men looked at each other as they were drowned in a strange atmosphere.

"I suddenly thought of something. Among our extended family, is it only the Widjaya family and the Ricardo family who do not have direct business affairs?"

Chris' calm eyes were on Jean. Even though the scope of business of each family was not the same, there were only a few families at the top of the pyramid.

As the richest family in Yogyakarta, the Ricardo family more or less cooperates with them.

It's just that the Ricardo family and the Widjaya family have almost no cooperation or whatsoever.

At this time, Alex exhaled, then shook his head and said, "I don't know if my family works with them. I'm only responsible for my own brand business, and I've never touched the family business."

Tom was getting more and more confused, he looked left and right. "I ... When I come back, I'll ask my father."

Chris. "..."

This stupid brat!

Chris gave him a pale look, and coughed with his fist on his lips. "The Hartanto family has contact with the Ricardos, but of course it is through Alan. Why did he invite you though? Obviously weird!"

Jean had a deep expression and asked nonchalantly, "What do you want to say?"

Chris didn't hesitate, then leaned slightly forward, saying, "The Ricardos have contact with all of our families, so it was easy to understand for them to invite us. But the Widjaya family has nothing to do with the Ricardos. What was their purpose in inviting you? Was it to show off?"

Alex frowned as soon as he heard it. "You can't say that. Don't forget, I've never participated in the management of the family business, but this time, an invitation was sent to me personally."

Chris fell silent upon hearing this!

Damn it!

Things got weird!

Could it be that the Iron Lady of the Ricardo family really just wanted to celebrate their 100 years?!

Chris couldn't figure out the answer for a while.

If Ricky hadn't said so much nonsense before, he wouldn't have been skeptical of the Ricardos.

"There's no point in speculating more. After the banquet begins, we all will understand." Jean calmly said, as if he did not care about whatever motive this banquet was held.

After seeing this, Chris and the others closed their minds, turning off the topic and spending their time chatting.

...

At five past ten, the hotel staff started knocking on each room that the banquet was about to start.

Lilia, Jean and the others were invited out and they walked towards the elevator.

However, they happened to meet a group of people who were also waiting in front of the lift.

It was Alan and Rachel.

Lilia was pretty taken aback when she caught Alan's hand on Rachel's waist.

She looked very beautiful today, and she no longer dressed in that worn out office attire like before.

Instead, she was wearing an evening dress to accentuate her elegant and slender figure.

Even Alan also wore a suit of the same color, and the two of them stood together looking so harmonious.

Maybe no one expected that they would meet here, so Rachel's face was clearly filled with panic.

She subconsciously wanted to pull Alan's hand down, but the man, who was hugging her, walked over with a calm expression.

"When did you guys arrive?" Alan said in a familiar and natural tone.

Chris pulled his lips and coldly replied, "Just now, how about you?"

Alan smiled faintly and embraced Rachel even more. "Same."

No one spoke again after the words fell.

It's just that, Rachel was a little annoyed when she noticed Lilia's gaze.

"You were here too!"

Lilia opened her mouth to break the deadlock. She stared at Rachel, her eyes still clear and smiling.

There was no ridicule, no anger, and no strange gesture to her greeting.

Rachel bit the corner of her mouth and nodded with difficulty. "Mr. Alan is allowed to bring a partner, so to reward my hard work, he invited me to this party!"

With this explanation, she hopes there will be no more awkwardness.

Lilia smiled. "I happen to be tired of being alone. If you are here, at least I still have someone to talk to."

"The elevator is coming!" When Rachel didn't know what to answer, the elevator doors opened.

She tried to stay calm, but Alan's hand seemed to be clinging tightly to her.

This made her hot and uncomfortable.

Alan could feel Rachel's awkwardness. When the group of people entered the elevator, Alan stood in a corner hugging her, lowering his head and whispering in her ear. "Why are you so tense? Are you embarrassed when many people see us?"

It doesn't matter how big the elevator space is, Alan's whisper can still be heard clearly by several others who also happen to take the same elevator.

Lilia blinked, glanced at her friend with a sneer, and couldn't hold her breath.
