Chapter 626 - Where's Mellisa?

Name:My Supermodel Wife Author:Renata99
Finally, after all this time, Lilia returned to her grandfather's house.

Her current identity, which is the granddaughter of the Mayer family from the capital city of Jakarta, is second to none.

A few minutes later, Lilia and the others were sitting in the living room, and the table was full of all kinds of food and belongings they had brought.

Today is not a holiday, only Caleb and Stefani are at home, while Axel calls the maid to bring tea and water.

"Granddaughter, come here and let Grandpa have a better look at you!"

Caleb is sitting on a chair, leaning on crutches in one hand, waving at Lilia.

Lilia stood up smiling and walked forward. After that, she introduced Chris. "Grandfather, this is our friend, Chris, the second young master of the Hartanto family in Surabaya."

When the old man took his eyes off Lilia, his gaze moved at Chris. Then he started looking at him from top to bottom.

His eyes are sharp and thorough. Within seconds, he had a general impression of Chris.

A talent with good looks, a person with character!

His facial features said it all! His eyes are clear, and his temperament is extraordinary. He could sit beside his granddaughter's husband like an equal, so he was definitely not evil.

The old man nodded his head in satisfaction then said, "Chris, are you married?"

For the first time ever, everyone heard him ask someone whom he'd just met about such.

Lilia was shocked, unable to help but laugh. "Grandpa, why do you ask?"

Caleb sighed, and his eyes fell on Chris again. "Clara is from your second uncle's family. Oh and it looks like you've never met her. She's your cousin and she's studying abroad. She's 25 years old and doesn't have a partner yet."

"I see that Chris is so nice. How about you, young man? If you're not married yet, do you want to marry my other granddaughter and join our family?"

Lilia. "..."

Chris knew General Caleb's reputation, and he didn't dare underestimate him. After all, most parents like to mess around and offer their unmarried children or grandchildren.

He nodded slightly, and said respectfully, "Thanks for the offer, but I already have a lover!"

Chris didn't give a straight answer, but he made it clear that he belonged to someone else.

The old man was stunned for a moment and sighed. "Ouch, what a shame."

After all, there were less and less young people who could catch his attention like Chris did.

At this time, Stefani took a sip of her teacup, shifted her gaze and said, "Don't worry, Clara said she didn't have a boyfriend yet, but that doesn't mean no one is approaching her."

"Besides, Chris is a wonderful kid. Women must have been after him for a long time," she added,  the way she talks makes her look like a real housewife. 

The old man looks at her, hums and doesn't speak anymore.

...

About half an hour later, Lilia and Jean were summoned to the study upstairs.

Chris took this opportunity to go to their villa, the Sakura Garden Villa.

He thought that his presence was unnecessary and he was also tired, and didn't want to bother the hostess to keep accompanying him.

That was the reason but he really wanted to avoid coming to the study upstairs! If the old general forced him to marry his grandchild again, he was afraid that he would offend him.

Stefani sat with Chris in the living room, and after the man left, Stefani walked upstairs.

Currently, when she was trying to catch up with her husband, Stefani suddenly sneezed twice. She suspected someone had noticed her, but she had no evidence!

In the study, when the old man sat down, Axel brought three cups of tea.

On the side shelves were also displayed many military medals and revolutionary items.

Grandpa Caleb's study reeks of struggle and blood, and on the walls are antique weapons used in war.

But honor and glory illuminated that place.

Lilia and Jean sat opposite the old man. They don't speak. The room feels quiet.

Not long after, the old man took the cover bowl from the porcelain cup and pulled out the teacup. A burst of overflowing tea aroma entered his nose.

He lifted his head. His wrinkled face was a little displeased. "Lilia, tell Grandpa the truth. Is that kid from the Austin family really going to marry Leila?"

Lilia accidentally looked at Jean. Apparently, her grandfather knew.

She didn't hide anything, then nodded and answered, "At the moment, it seems so."

The old man then pounded the table in front of him.

He had a sharp look in his eyes, but he did not smile. "Stupid family, how dare they oppose my family!"

Marrying Leila was tantamount to offending the Mayer family.

In the entire capital city, no one dared to offend the Mayer family, but now the Austin family seemed to look for trouble.

Since last night, the city heard that the son of the Austin family wanted to marry Leila.

He thought it was a rumor. After examining it, Caleb found that it was true, and that Leila was back in Indonesia.

This time, the face of the old man was very ugly, and he looked like a cold-blooded general who'd returned to the battlefield.

He tightened his brow and tapped the ground with his stick. Then he asked, "You don't need to worry. Grandfather will take care of this for you."

"Grandfather, don't!"

Lilia firmly refused, the old man was surprised. "Don't?"

With a smile, she explained seriously. "Grandfather, I've said that this is a problem between the young people. So if we want to solve it, we will do it ourselves. Besides, Sis Mellisa is not here yet. We can't rely on the reputation of this family to help us decide everything. Besides, the Austin family totally disapproves of their son's marriage to Leila, so you can't blame them."

"Is that so?"

The old man gradually lowered his eyebrows. Even though he was a little angry, he still couldn't accept that Leila would marry into a rich family like the Austin family.

"Grandpa, Sister Mellisa and I can sort this out. If we need help, we will definitely ask for your help."

Lilia's words were filled with a soothing and warm tone. In the end, Caleb made a compromise and nodded in response. "Okay, I won't interfere. But remember, if you need help, you have to tell me as soon as possible. Do you understand?"

"Yes, thank you, grandpa."

Caleb waved his hand and asked, "Where's your sister? That kid didn't contact me again after the video call with us a while ago. I thought she was coming with you this time."

"There are a few things she still has to work on. I don't know where she is but we promise to meet once in a while," Lilia didn't want to say that Mellisa was in Jakarta because she didn't want her grandfather to look for her all over the city.

Because of that, her heart was filled with depression.

She herself didn't know when she would receive news from Mellisa.

She hopes that everything goes well and that her sister can return as soon as possible.

...

Today, Lilia had a long chat with the old man at the Mayer family's house.

That night, they stayed at Sakura Garden Villa. The view was still the same as before , except for the missing figures of Mellisa and Leonard.

Chris stayed in the guest room. At midnight, he went out alone in his pajamas to see if there was any liquor.

When he came into the living room, he found someone sitting in front of the sofa, basking under the moonlight.

"Jean?"

"Yes."

Hearing his response, Chris licked his back teeth and joked, "Have you been expelled by Lilia?"
