Chapter 518 - New Challenger

Lilia glanced at him, she lowered her head and took a bite of her sandwich, but the corner of her mouth warped calmly.

In fact, she had never seen him this busy ever since they knew each other.

Problems for sure couldn't be avoided in any work, Lilia could understand Jean's high dedication because this company was his responsibility.

"Don't you have to go to work today?" After a few bites of the sandwich, the man took a sip of the coffee.

Lilia chewed her food then answered in a soft voice, "I have no work today. I'm planning to go to the company later. By the way, there is something I want to tell you. "

Speaking of this, traces of wrinkles appeared in her husband's forehead.

When she got the notification from Harold, she wondered whether to tell her husband or not.

Even though Lilia wanted to refrain from saying it, they had always been honest to each other, no matter what. They had always been this way from the first time they got together, so it was pretty difficult for her to hide anything from her man.

After thinking about it for a while, Lilia immediately gave up her intention to hide it any longer.

The man seemed to see her doubt, and when he put down his coffee cup, he turned at her with a deep smile. "Looks like you were planning to hide it from me before?"

"That's… right!" An embarrassed expression appeared on Lilia's face.

She glared at the man and cleared her throat. "I thought you were very busy, so I thought I didn't want to burden your mind. I was planning to discuss it with you in a few days."

"No matter how busy I am, I will never neglect my wife's business. Let's talk, I'll listen to it."

The man leaned back on the back of his chair with a very comfortable posture, and looked at Lilia with an admiring gaze. Even if he looked so tired, his eyes were still glued to her beauty.

Lilia pulled the corners of her lips and pondered for a moment before finally saying, "My film promotion event on the seventh day is in Malaysia!"

After speaking, she saw a hint of surprise in the man's eyes.

Lilia couldn't blame his reaction, she was also shocked when she received the news.

The promotional tour for the "Chosen Kingdom" was said to be done across Indonesia, but she did not think that she would need to go abroad. It seemed that she was underestimating Louis Septian's ambition.

However, this arrangement made Lilia feel that this might be a blessing in itself.

Leila was in Malaysia now, who knew if Lilia could take advantage of her visit to this neighboring country later.

Jean narrowed his eyes, he could see Lilia's eagerness to leave and hesitantly said, "Do you want to look for Leila when you visit Malaysia?"

Lilia didn't deny it. "It was my plan, but I will only go to Malaysia in mid-December and I still have almost half a month to go. I'm afraid Leila has been moving out from Malaysia for a long time."

"Since there is still time, don't think too much about it. If there are no obstacles, Clifford will arrive in Malaysia tomorrow!"

When that man said, Lilia stared at him in amazement. "Did you… End Clifford's vacation ahead of schedule?"

"Yes, I need him!"

Lilia pursed her lips and laughed, but she didn't say anything.

She thought that this man always did more than anyone knew. He rarely talked about what he had done, but he was always the one who could turn things around in a blink of an eye.

That way, Lilia didn't have to worry too much anymore. She completely trusted Jean's plan!

...

Lilia hadn't been in the company for too long. Knowing that Jean would have another meeting, she firmly left him a few advice and left the company early.

Jean never told her about what happened at his company and Lilia herself didn't want to ask, but ... as long as the problem was still there, it was only time before everything got revealed.

At this time, she was sitting in the car driven by Kenny while looking for the latest real estate news with her cell phone.

She looked around for a bit, and quickly caught something in the news that was released the day after yesterday.

Latest Real Estate News: Galaxy Real Estate beat the leading Widjaya Family Real Estate Group. It is known that Galaxy Real Estate has submitted a bid for a Surabaya government development project in oneswoop…

Seeing this, Lilia's expression became even more serious.

The Widjaya family was facing a huge problem!

Galaxy Real Estate seized a work contract that should have belonged to the Widjaya family. Even if she wasn't in the real estate industry, this news would have generated quite a reaction.

The Widjaya family had been a leading power in the real estate industry for a long time, and this was the first time someone had managed to steal from them.

Lilia's gaze was fixed on the news on her cellphone. This news was released a few days ago. In other words, when they were still in the capital city of Jakarta, Jean's company had already experienced this kind of bad luck.

And yet the man still continued to accompany her in Jakarta, and was not present at the company...

Thinking of this, Lilia immediately got annoyed and threw her cellphone on the chair. Instinctively, she felt that she had a fault in the problem that the Widjaya family's company encountered.

Kenny then slowly stepped on the brake as the red light shone on the intersection. After he stopped the car, he blinked his red eyes and saw Lilia's displeased face through the rearview mirror.  He then ventured to ask in a deep voice, "Madame, are you.. having an argument with the president?"

Lilia was clearly sulking so she didn't want to answer it.

She lifted her eyes to Kenny's suspicious gaze, about to open her mouth. But she stopped speaking.

Seeing this, Kenny tried to understand her and calm her down. "Madame, please don't be angry. The president has been very busy lately. He wasn't at the company before and there was a lot of work piling up. He never stopped working last night. Please understand that the president has to sacrifice his time to solve the problems in the company,"

"This information is just for you, Madame. He might seem too focused on his careers and forget everything, but the president still has you in his heart. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been worried about you all the time. So on behalf of the president, I want to apologize if you can't enjoy your vacation with him," he added.

Kenny's soothing tone became even more exaggerated. Lilia raised her hand in a dumbfounded manner and interrupted him.

"Kenny, I have a question..."

Kenny just swallowed the words in his mouth. Hearing Lilia's question, he forced his eyes wide open. "Madame, I will try to answer as long as I know of the matter."

Lilia frowned at that.

Did Kenny's brain turn into a mush from too much overtime?

Why was he talking like this today!?

Through the rearview mirror, Lilia met Kenny's serious expression. She pursed the corner of her mouth and said, "How much do you know about Galaxy Real Estate?"

Kenny was confused!

He thought this boss' wife wanted to talk to him about the emotional journey between man and woman.

But why... Why was she asking about her husband's rival company?!

Kenny stared at Lilia in a daze, perhaps secretly wondering how he should answer her. The atmosphere in the car became quiet for a moment because of this.

HONK! HONK!

When the red light ahead changed, Kenny forgot to run the car. The car behind them was already honking loudly.

Suddenly, his eyes drifted past the intersection.

The Genesis company was not far from where Aphrodite's agency was. In just a few minutes, Kenny had parked his car on the lower floor of the building.

He turned and looked at Lilia then mused repeatedly and answered, "Galaxy Real Estate is based in Jakarta. Previously, they are working in the retail industry, and people had never heard of their plan to enter the real estate world. At least not until a few days ago."

"But this year, Galaxy Real Estate continued to emerge and won several crucial employment contracts in Jakarta.. According to the evaluation, Galaxy Real Estate is the dark horse in the real estate industry this year," Kenny added.
