Lilia pursed the corners of her mouth, her eyes clear. "I'm interested in this, but I'm not in a hurry. I'll say it after I think about it."
As the words fell, she recalled what happened this afternoon and blinked slightly. "This afternoon, Alfred sent me something. He sent me a box of skin care products and powdered milk. What's the meaning behind all this?"
The man thought about the box he saw in the living room earlier, his eyes flashing. "No matter what the intention is, don't bother thinking about it!"
"Well, I think so, then... I'll let the maids take care of those things!"
Lilia's tone was very thoughtful, showing her distrust of Alfred.
This mood may be similar to the fear of being bitten by a snake.
Now that the Widjaya and the Ricardo family's problem has been over, it should be better for each to get back on track and not elbow each other.
The light of the setting sun gradually went west, and Jean grabbed her shoulder while urging in a low voice. "If there is an express delivery home in the future, it will be rejected."
After he said it, the maid suddenly knocked on the bedroom door. "Master, Madame, it's dinner time!"
Lilia came out of the bedroom with the man, and as she passed the wall of their lovely photos in the corridor, she grabbed his wrist.
"Don't you see any change?"
As she spoke, she didn't forget to lift her chin towards the center of the photo wall.
The man just glanced at it, then lowered his head slightly. His voice was magnetic and indulgent as he said, "You changed our photo, are you not afraid that I will be jealous?"
When he went upstairs earlier, Jean had already noticed the changes on the photo wall.
The photo is now in a frame.
It was a four-dimensional ultrasound photo of their child.
Hearing this, Lilia bumped into him with her hand and smiled. "How can you be jealous of your own son?"
When she was free this afternoon, she hung a picture of their child on this wall.
The man looked at her deeply, hugged her and walked down the stairs. "Come downstairs to eat first."
Lilia glanced at his face and reached out her hand to caress her stomach. "Do you... dislike your child?"
After returning from the hospital today, she felt that Jean seemed normal about the results of the examination.
Does he not like children?!
As the man came down the stairs, his pace slowed. "I would prefer to have a daughter like you. However, a boy is also good. When he grows up, he can protect his younger sister and inherit the Widjaya family business."
Lilia. "???"
Little sister!
She slightly glared at the man. "Don't talk about whether he will have a sister and inherit the entire Widjaya family business! How about you?"
The man's thin lips smiled. "I can retire early and accompany you... See the world."
Lilia's heart felt hot after hearing this.
She looked at the man smiling but her brows were very serious, and couldn't help but shed bitter tears for Jean Jr. in her stomach.
'Son, when you grow up, be filial to your parents! Your father can actually do this kind of thing!'
As for the courier sent by Alfred, the box was taken out by the maid and thrown away that night.
Lilia didn't ask much, now that there are so many supplements from the family, she really doesn't need the inexplicable attention of outsiders.
...
Days of peace always pass like water, without any ripples and traces.
Maybe Jean's suggestion made Lilia's mind move. In the next few days, she had thought of one thing.
On Friday three days later, she suddenly found out that Jean was on a business trip.
This was the first time she had heard that her husband was going on a business trip after they got married.
At this time, in the afternoon, Lilia was sitting in the living room, looking at the man across from her. "Where are you going on that business trip of yours?"
"In the city of Semarang." Jean took a sip while holding the teacup, looking at her in shock. His eyes drooped.
Lily sat down. "How long?"
"At least half a month." The man answered honestly, and he couldn't help but bite the corner of his mouth. "It's okay, it won't take too long. I can go with peace of mind, and you'll be waiting for me at home."
As a real estate company president, Jean needs to do a lot of inspections of his projects.
Lilia always knows that her husband is very busy, and yet he still purposely took a day off before, just to be able to accompany her more.
Now that everything's back to its original state, Jean must devote himself to his busy work again.
She can understand, and a half moon will actually pass in the blink of an eye.
Jean then looked at her. "If you need anything, you can let Dina take care of it. If you're free at night, we can make video calls at any time."
Jean's instructions floated into her ears, and Lilia subconsciously nodded.
Seeing that she wasn't talking, the man put down his teacup, got up and walked beside her. When he sat down, he suggested, "If you are bored at home, why not go over to my family's house for a while?"
Lilia blinked and smiled. "No need, I have thought about your suggestion and I plan to do it so you don't get bored."
The man's interest piqued his brows. "What do you want?"
"My studio is running smoothly even without my help. They are all working fine. Then, I thought about what if I help them out once in a while! I can help them recruit new people."
Lilia's eyes were full of expression.
Jean wasn't too committed and looked at her lower belly. "Do it if you want, but protect yourself."
Lilia nodded and said enthusiastically, "Don't worry, it's not hard to bring in new people. Even though I'm just a model, it's always been an easy job. I can also go to train these new artists in photo shoots or something!"
Lilia was eager to try the idea as soon as it came up.
The man was slightly relieved to see his wife's eyes shining with excitement.
At 3 that afternoon, Jean left Villa Lakeside.
Lilia wanted to follow him all the way to the airport, but Jean refused.
At the entrance, she stood on the spot looking at the figure of a man in a suit with a frown. "When you arrive, remember to video call me!"
"Okay, take care of yourself at home. The nutritionist will prepare your meals every day. You should also drink warm water at night before going to bed. In the wall cupboard above the kitchen, the first layer is nutrition tablets, and the second layer is ready-to-brewed powdered milk. Remember not to be picky for your meals. I asked the maids to give you the medicine that doctor Amelia prescribed for you. Don't forget to take it on time."
Lilia smiled and stepped forward, raising her hand to smooth the neckline of her husband's coat. "Don't worry, I'll keep this in mind. Good luck with your work, don't worry about me."
The man looked down upon seeing her movements, he sighed softly. "You may remember it now, but when you are busy later, you may forget everything. Just wait for me to come back, okay?"
Lilia met the man's gentle gaze, stood on tiptoe and kissed his lips.. "Okay, I'm waiting for you to come back."
