Hearing Sasha's words, Jean's body stiffened a little.
"This is the reason why I want us to talk alone. Isn't it a little cruel if I talk about it in front of Miss Lilia? But either way, it was you who forced her to come in and made her listen to this so I can't complain. And now that I have found the girl you have been looking for years, are you willing to just let her go?"
Jean looked at her in bewilderment, his indifferent face still unchanged. His fingertips slowly stroked Lilia's hair, his eyes were so dark and his lips were parted as he said, "So you wanted to tell me that the girl at that time was you?"
Sasha sighed. Although she didn't expect Jean to spoil the surprise, in the end her goal was achieved. She lowered her head shamelessly and nodded, "Jean, I'm sorry I only found out recently. I never thought that… I am the one you've been looking for!"
Lilia blinked hard, she was left speechless by Sasha's acting!
Jean suddenly felt a little sick. He didn't expect that Sasha would be so shameless like this. But the handsome man should give her a round of applause, Sasha had calculated her moves well.
After all, Jean hadn't told anyone around him about the little girl at that time.
He glared intently at Sasha as the woman was grinning widely. He didn't return anything, he just tapped Lilia on the shoulder and kissed her forehead with the corner of his lips as if saying that she didn't need to worry.
Lilia was clearly worried, if her husband was busy following the drama that Sasha created, he might really believe everything she had said outright.
At this time, Chris was the first to break the ice. "Are you sure you are the little girl who sent the letter to the Widjaya family at that time?"
Of course Chris didn't believe it!
Fourteen years ago, they were all the same age, except for Jean, who had disappeared for almost half a year during that time, and was still in school.
Had this woman lost her mind? Why was she trying to overwrite the mysterious story with a nonsensical one?
Sasha just nodded calmly. "Yes, I was a little girl at that time."
Upon hearing her answer, Lilia nodded her head. This woman was truly extraordinary.
Sasha noticed Lilia's movements and immediately added. "Miss Lilia, if I were you, I might not be able to sit here again with a peaceful heart. After all, brother James and his wife Irene will be here any minute now. They will prove that I am that girl!"
Lilia was shocked. "Why are you bringing them in?"
"The members of the Widjaya family have not discussed it for years, but they never gave up on looking for that little girl. Of course, you cannot understand something like this. After all, your marriage to Jean is simply the result of your father's greed for money!"
Her contemptuous tone was filled with irony. After speaking, she looked at Jean as if she had made some important decisions and continued, "Jean, as long as you want me, I'm willing to cancel my engagement today."
The man looked at her faintly, Sasha's hopeful expression reflected in his dark and dignified eyes. He raised his eyebrows and casually said, "No need, your engagement will be held according to plan. You… don't really matter to me."
The smile on Sasha's face instantly froze!
She straightened up in dismay, her brows furrowed as she asked, "Jean, I was the one who saved you at that time. Are you going to let her go? Your dream girl is forced to marry someone else!"
"Forced?" Chris sneered coldly, and with great anger he said, "You really are shameless! Did you voluntarily hold this engagement party? How could you play with Tom's heart like that!?"
Since Chris repeatedly interrupted her, Sasha finally couldn't hold back her anger anymore.
She clenched her fists in an instant and her face was furious. "Chris, shut up! I don't need your useless nagging!"
"Oh? So you think I've been nagging you all this time? I think all you need is a healthy brain in order to think properly. How could that little girl be you? How could we believe it if there is no evidence? Everyone can claim like that without any real evidence!"
Sasha was stunned by Chris' scolding, then she looked away and said, "I am the evidence! You all don't know what happened 14 years ago, do you? I'm the only one who knows this, so how could you say I didn't have the proof with me?"
The woman then glared at Jean. "I am the girl you've been looking for. Over the years, I…. I've always loved you, and I'm sure you can feel my feelings too. Over the years, isn't it me that's in your heart and you never give up looking for me? If I'm not important, why have you been looking for me all this time?"
"In fact, I want today's engagement party to be the moment of truth when I let people know that I was the savior of the Widjaya family 14 years ago. And I am the girl you have been dreaming of and hiding in your heart for years!"
So this was your plan?!
Lilia suddenly flinched, she then looked at Sasha sympathetically. Did she want to boast about it and demand something in return?
Or was this a part of something bigger? The fragrance in the room and her stubbornness to talk privately with Jean, maybe Sasha wanted to do something more than she said right now.
Just as the atmosphere in the room grew silent, the closed door slowly opened. And the figure appearing was Tom Wibowo, who looked hurt and shocked.
Beside him, James Widjaya and his wife Irene Wijaya followed.
The appearance of these three made Sasha really surprised.
Why did they come so fast!?
Tom stood in the doorway for a long time without moving. When James coughed lightly, Tom finally came back from his daze.
Tom walked into the room step by step, his eyes covered in a faint gray light. He looked around with a blurred vision, and finally he fell and sat down on the sofa.
James and Irene walked slowly, they had heard Sasha's words saying that she was Jean's savior 14 years ago from outside the door.
This matter concerned one of the descendants of the Widjaya family, and although time had passed, they still wanted to find out the truth of that time.
When the two of them came tonight, they just found out that…. Sasha, that little girl from 14 years ago, was getting engaged to Tom!
If everything that Sasha said was true then her sudden actions couldn't be blamed. Instead, Jean was in the wrong position here. Why did the man say that he had been looking for the girl he loved since childhood and yet he didn't even realize that she was none other than his childhood friend, who had been beside him for years?
When James and Irene arrived, everyone in the room immediately greeted them.
After they all sat down, James looked at Sasha with his dignified eyes and asked, "Are you really the girl who saved my brother?"
