After making Jean let go of her hand with great difficulty, Lilia stole a glance at the man. Jean's expression looked like an abandoned puppy.
Lilia was confused again. Jean Widjaya was every woman's dream man. He was a wealthy businessman, born from a conglorate family, and also handso. Plus, they had t for the first ti a week ago. Jean didn't look like soone who believed in love at first sight.
Why was such a great man acting as if he really fell in love with Lilia?
A guess ca to Lilia's mind.
"Jean, have we t before?" Lilia imdiately voiced her suspicions.
Lilia would never be able to receive all the love and attention from Jean until she figured out why.
Jean's face suddenly turned expressionless, "Maybe." His answer was short.
Lilia could only stare blankly at Jean, 'What kind of answer is that?!'
Lilia refused to give up and this ti she leaned towards Jean, "What do you an? I just want to know if you've t before!" Lilia urged.
Jean's lips ford a thin line as he glanced at Lilia's excited face.
"Just think for yourself."
In an instant, Jean returned to being the arrogant and cold man Lilia had first t.
Lilia didn't want to make the mood of the man beside her even worse. She stopped asking Jean and looked back out the window. Jean's attitude showed that the man didn't want to tell her.
Lilia's frown deepened. She had a good mory and never experienced amnesia like the one in the television drama series. If she had t a man as handso and great as Jean Widjaya, surely she would not have forgotten him!
The man sitting beside Lilia stole a glance at the woman. Jean quietly sighed when he saw Lilia frown with a confused expression. As expected, this woman really didn't rember him.
Lilia's mind returned to the real world when the limo stopped. She saw Jean's house and was about to protest, but Lilia rembered Jean's bad mood. If she protested and irritated him even more, she couldn't imagine what he would do to her, so Lilia wisely decided not to comnt.
That night, Lilia didn't sleep well. For so reason, she repeatedly dread of the figure of a boy. The boy turned his back on Lilia and walked away from her. Lilia kept running after the boy, but she could never see his face.
*****
The next morning, when Lilia ca down to the dining room, there was only Sister i who was busy preparing breakfast. According to the middle-aged woman, Jean had already left for the office because there was an important eting.
Lilia sat down at the dining table and started chewing on her sandwich. She felt as if she dread of soone who was very important to her last night, but she couldn't rember who it was. As a result, Lilia lost her appetite and took an hour to finish her breakfast.
Just as Lilia finished eating, her father called. Robert told Lilia that he and Sylvia were going to Jakarta for a week. Apart from that, her father also asked Lilia to visit Daniel, her younger brother who was 4 years younger than her. Lilia complied with that small request without knowing that it would cause unexpected trouble.
Lilia always wondered why her parents routinely went to Jakarta every two or three months. She repeatedly asked Robert that question, but her father always replied that this was a business trip. After getting the sa answers over and over again, Lilia stopped trying to find out.
Around lunch ti, Harold suddenly called her.
"How is Rina's condition?" Lilia imdiately asked when the phone was connected.
"...I heard she was hospitalized." Harold replied after recovering from his shock, "I did not think you would ask about Rina. How about you? Are you in trouble?"
"No, I'm fine." Lilia added to herself, "Thanks to Jean and his friends." If they didn't co help her, Lilia would be the one in the hospital right now.
As Lilia didn't explain further, Harold guessed that she didn't want to talk about it, "In that case, thank God. I just ca back from out of town and was imdiately greeted by this incident! Can't that woman give a break? I have to work overti to take care of canceling her contract as a model! But I will make sure Rina pays compensation equal to all the trouble she caused!" He grumbled.
Lilia was grateful that the man didn't ask for the details of Rina's incident, though she was also curious about the reason, "You're not going to ask ?"
Harold laughed blankly, "This incident happened during the Widjaya Family celebration party, right? I can already imagine what happened then!"
