My Supermodel Wife

Several women reluctantly pointed to Rachel.

"It's hard to believe, when did Alan's eyesight get so bad!"

"Who knows if he lost a bet, that woman really doesn't deserve him!"

"Maybe she has good skills, it looks like she managed to win Alan's heart in bed!"

Envy makes people jealous!

They kept on gossiping and jeering, even their eyes were full of contempt.

Rachel wasn't far from them, and all this sarcastic remark caught her attention.

She darkened her eyes and turned her head to look at them, but the other party was unafraid and stared back at her, seemingly eager to annoy her.

At this time, a clear sound of footsteps came, accompanied by a cold tone. "Since you sound like you know Alan so well, would you like to talk to him about this matter face to face?"

Several people looked back at the same time, and their gaze fell at Lilia's figure..

Lilia didn't know that they were all so displeased with her pretty face.

Everyone knows Lilia and the two large families behind her.

The women froze for a long time, and finally curled their lips in anger, not daring to speak.

"Rachel, why are you standing here alone?"

Lilia stepped forward to help Rachel, standing beside her, deliberately blocking the view.

Rachel smiled broadly. "I couldn't find you just now…"

"I was chatting with the others in the bar area, where's Alan? Why isn't he with you? " Lilia looked around but couldn't find Alan.

Rachel lowered her head, her voice weak. "He wanted to speak to Mr. Ricardo, so I was asked to go here first!"

Mr. Ricardo, huh?

Must be Alfred for sure!

Contemplation spread across Lilia's face, then she led Rachel to the center of the place. "Then, just let him! We better have fun first before the event starts. You better sit down with me before the show starts."

After that, she took Rachel's hand and passed some of the jealous-looking women.

And their arrogance has not abated until now.

Who is she?

She looks quite ordinary, but how can Lilia treat her specially?!

Isn't she just an ordinary woman?

Rachel walked over to Lilia's side, and she caught a glimpse of the stupid gazes. When she looked away, she whispered, "Lilia, thank you ..."

"It's alright, you don't have to listen to them and make your mood worse, most of them are just jealous!"

Rachel nodded silently, but she wasn't at all calm.

Because everything they say is fact.

"Lilia, I ..."

"Little girl!"

Just as Rachel wanted to exchange a few words, from behind them, a gentle and kind call came.

The two of them turned around at the same time. When Lilia saw the person, she immediately let go of Rachel, and stepped forward. "Mrs. Florence, long time no see!"

She didn't expect that she would meet the patriarch of the Ricardo family.

At this time, Florence was accompanied by an old maid and four other servants. She was wearing a phoenix gold cheongsam embroidered with dark red patterns. She didn't look old and looked very fit.

Lilia's respectful and humble attitude made Florence's face full of friendly smiles. "It's true that I haven't seen you in a long time. The last time we met was at a banquet at your grandfather's house, right? "

"Yes, Madame is right!"

After hearing this, Florence nodded with a smile, her clear eyes swept over Lilia. "Why are you alone today? Why aren't you with your husband and the others?!"

Lilia glanced at Florence, smiled slightly and glanced sideways at the bar. "They're all there."

Florence averted her eyes and nodded. "Alright, it's good if everyone comes. I'm just worried because it must be a tough journey for you to come from Surabaya. Even though you are young, don't overdo it tonight! Don't get carried away and don't drink too much."

Lilia nodded. "Thank you for your hospitality, Madame!"

Once again, Florence smiled deeply at Lilia, after which she said something about health, and led the servants into the crowd.

Lilia stared at her from a distance, slightly frowning between her brows.

Why did she think the smile on Florence's face was meaningless?!

Without bothering to think about it again, the banquet was about to begin.

...

On the thousands of chairs that were in the ballroom, all the guests had sat down.

Looking around, there were many important figures, and many people from major families were present, giving the Ricardo family a lot of face.

At this time, Lilia and the others were seated next to the main table.

Young and old members of the Ricardo family sat around the two main tables.

Florence naturally sits in the most conspicuous position.

At the start of the banquet, Alfred and Alan appeared from the entrance of the banquet hall.

Rachel couldn't hold her gaze, and immediately sat up straight, staring straight at her. "Lilia, my seat is over there, I'll be going first!"

Alan and the others weren't at the same table. Rachel saw that Alan had arrived, and she couldn't help but whisper in her ear.

Lilia didn't want to hold her back, so she just nodded slowly.

Rachel walked around the two tables and returned to Alan's side.

Seeing this scene, Lilia sighed silently.

We can never wake up a person who doesn't want to open their eyes.

At the same time, Alfred calmly stepped onto the stage.

He took the microphone from the staff. He was wearing a high-definition dark blue suit with a strong aura. He looked around and raised the microphone. His soft voice then echoed around every corner.

"Thank you for coming to the Centennial Banquet of the Ricardo Family despite your busy schedule ..."

Alfred's kind greeting expressed his gratitude to everyone.

His gaze swept across the guests, and then he smiled to himself. "I believe that everyone present has a close relationship with the Ricardo family. As the next head of the Ricardo family, I must thank all of you for showing love and assistance to my family."

"Today's banquet, it's a banquet that marks my family's century old history. To this day, the Ricardos are a family with a century of history. As a family member, I am deeply honored by this. In the past century, the Ricardos have experienced an era of war and financial crisis, we would not have managed to survive to this day without the support of all of you."

After those words fell, a deafening burst of applause rang out in the banquet hall.

Alfred bowed politely, and the topic immediately changed. "Of course, I believe everyone knows that our family had high expectations for my generation. I thought back to when my father was still alive, it is the season of the best in the family of Ricardo. Unfortunately, my father had been killed in a plane accident."

"It led to the fall of the Ricardo family. If my grandmother had not turned things around, I'm afraid that the Ricardos wouldn't have survived it all. Therefore, in this banquet, I want to celebrate the fact that the Ricardos are still in this world, and I want to share with you all the glory of the Ricardo family."
