In the dinner, Claire refilled the vegetables on Lilia's plate several times. The older woman always seemed to like to care for others. However, Claire's attention this time brought difficulties for Lilia. This was because Jean didn't want to lose to her and kept getting meat for his wife. "Sister Claire, don't give her too much food." Jean scolded while giving his sister a sharp gaze. "Huh? You must be kidding!" Claire replied fiercely, "Don't you see how thin Lilia is? She needs to eat more!"…

Jean's sister was wearing an apron decorated with pink lace. The cute apron made Claire more feminine than her usual elegant and confident look. Claire wiped her hands with her apron while smiling broadly, "Ah, you have arrived! Are you tired from the long journey? Sorry, I sent you all the way here. I'm cooking something, so will you guys wait a bit?" She said kindly. It took them a long time to reach Claire's house since Lilia's hotel wasn't near the city's centre. In addition, they had already…

That afternoon, the evening sun peeked out of the reddish sky. Its soft light fell on the Irwan Family's house. The large and luxurious house was one of the oldest houses built in Jakarta. The walls were made of gray stone and designed in an ancient style. This house had been the main household of the Irwan family for generations. All the guests who came to visit were always amazed by the garden in the front yard of the house. The garden was well kept and looked elegant, but what attracted guests'…

That day, after Lilia finished her final scene in the studio, some of the film crew gave her flowers and cake. It was a tradition among the crew to celebrate the actors completing their filming. "Congratulations, Lilia! Your shooting here is finally over!" "You are now officially an actress, huh! Don't forget us when you become famous later!" "Tell me if you want to be in another film after this! I will invite you to meet a director I know!" The crew's cheering congratulations made Lilia's…

"You are still Mrs. Lilia Widjaya." In other words, nothing could change that fact. The man's words seeped into Lilia's heart and dispelled the gloom that clung onto her mind. The world that had been gray in Lilia's eyes now started to look colorful again. For the first time since she found Leila in her house, Lilia felt that she could breathe freely again. Jean was secretly relieved when he saw a small smile on Lilia's lips. The woman's cheeks, which were pale before, slowly turned red again.…

The current situation was starting to give Claire a headache. She took turns looking at Leila and Mike, but she couldn't do anything to improve the atmosphere between them. Andrew saw Claire's discouraged face and sighed. The man pulled his wife to one of the chairs while glaring at Mike. It's about time he taught his brother a lesson! "Sister Claire, Brother Andrew, sorry for worrying you. I will be more careful in the future." Leila said when the husband and wife had sat down. Leila's voice…

When Lilia stepped out of her house, she galloped over to Jean's car and violently opened the door. Without saying a word, she threw herself into her husband's embrace. The woman was actually holding back her tears ever since she was alone in the living room with her mother. The painful words that the woman spat stabbed Lilia's heart like an invisible dagger. She was worried that if she didn't leave immediately, her fight with Sylvia would get even bigger. Kenny heard Lilia sobbing and immediately…

When Sylvia heard Leila's words, her expression turned stiff. She stepped forward and stared at her daughter closely, "Lilia, how did you get acquainted with Leila?" She asked. Lilia felt that Sylvia's reaction was a little strange, but she didn't really think about it, "I met her in Jakarta." She honestly answered. Sylvia didn't say anything more and just nodded. But her expression turned stiff after hearing Lilia's answer. "Ah, Aunt Sylvia, thank you for bringing me here." Leila broke the…

Jean raised his eyebrows at the disrespectful question, "What if your lady comes home for the weekend? What right do you have to question her actions?" Jean shot a knife-sharp gaze at the male servant. The servant's face immediately turned deathly pale. He shook his head frantically, "T-That's not what I mean! I-I just thought that Miss Lilia was still busy filming in Jakarta!" He explained. Lilia ignored their argument and turned her gaze to the living room window. Even though it was still morning,…

It took Lilia a moment to process this shocking news. When she finally recovered from the shock, she asked, "Why did they come to Surabaya?" Instead of answering her, Jean called Kenny. Through a conversation on the phone, Lilia learned that Mike joined a luxury car club in Surabaya. The man went to Surabaya for club activities this weekend. Apparently, Leila heard about it and was determined to follow Mike to Surabaya. Nobody knew what exactly happened, but Leila's figure disappeared. The Irwan…
