Chapter 625 - Returning To The Mayer Family Home
To that man's answer, Lilia didn't doubt it.
She took Jean back to their bed. That night, they stayed at the private villa.
??
Perhaps the news that Mike wanted to marry Leila was too shocking.
When Lilia was trying to sleep, she kept changing positions while closing her eyes. It was difficult to sleep.
She dragged her cell phone from under her pillow and looked at the time. It was almost 1 AM.
A sigh came from behind her. Lilia was shocked as she pressed the cell phone's screen against her chest, turned around and looked at her side. "Did I wake you up?"
"Not!" The man put his strong arms around her waist and pulled her into his arms.
Lilia was defeated by the force, her face buried in his chest. "Perhaps I've slept for too long earlier."
Jean didn't speak, he leaned back slightly then stared at his wife. "Still thinking about Mike?"
Lilia lifted her gaze, her mouth scrunched up and she nodded slowly.
She forgot that there was nothing to hide from him.
Lilia sighed, and her face was colored with fatigue. "I just don't understand what he's doing. Actually, I don't believe he will fall for Leila, but..."
Her voice abruptly stopped, Lilia swallowed her words instead.
Still, she thought that Mike's attitude and determination felt so sincere.
Is the human heart too complex or does she think of human nature too simply ?!
The man's ocean-deep pupils did not directly gaze at Lilia's face.
He stared at the ceiling under the dim light, then stared at his wife deeply. Then he bent over to kiss her forehead and lips.
"Mike is not a kid. He has his own will. If he insists on marrying Leila, he must have had a reason."
If he is really indebted to her, that reason is enough to explain his behavior.
Jean doesn't say much, but Lilia ignores the deep meaning of what he's just told her and shakes her head annoyed." I know what he wants, and what he intends to do. Even though it really makes sense, I don't agree with it. Leila is too cunning, she hasn't shown her fangs yet, and I'm afraid Mike will fall victim when that time comes."
Hearing this, the man narrowed his eyes and joked in a gentle tone."Mrs. Widjaya could not sleep at night thinking of another man. Do you think that's appropriate?"
Lilia was immediately shocked when she heard that. Seeing her husband's eyes narrowed, she wrinkled her mouth and threw herself into his arms, not speaking.
The warm and quiet atmosphere in the room was a little calming. When she was about to fall asleep, she rubbed the man's neck and muttered, "Tomorrow, let's go to my grandfather's house."
Now Andrew and Claire need to let Leila stay before Mike could take her away. As the atmosphere in the Austin family grew increasingly tense, arguments and disputes could not be avoided.
Then, they don't need to stay here.
Lilia wants to deal with Leila, but not now.
That's because… Mellisa hasn't returned.
But, out of thousands of mistakes, Mike did at least one thing right.
He brought Leila back to Indonesia. As long as she stayed in the country, she would be able to watch her better.
Thinking of this, Lilia forces her eyes to open again. "Since Leila is already in Indonesia, can we limit her movements so that she doesn't leave the country in the future?"
"Yes, she will be summoned again in two days by the city's police department. She will definitely be prohibited from leaving the country."
Even if she wanted to leave again, Jean believed that there was no chance.
After a while, while Lilia was asleep, the man touched her warm cheek and waited a few minutes. Then he quietly put on his coat and left the bedroom.
He paced back and forth to the common room on the other side and made a phone call after entering the door.
The next day, after breakfast, Lilia and the others planned to leave the villa.
Before leaving, she sat in the living room and looked at Mike with a tired expression and she didn't want to say anything.
It is said that Leila had a high fever last night. Mike has been treating her alone all night.
At three midnight, he woke up Andrew and his wife, and even called his family's doctor.
"Lilia, will you come back after you leave today? It's almost Chinese New Year. Would you like to celebrate with us?"
At this time, Claire came from the kitchen. She was seen still holding a tray with several cups of tea on it.
Lilia turned around and laughed. "I won't be back after that. After seeing my grandfather, I still have a few things to do."
"So… "Claire nodded warmly, but Mike leaned lazily on the sofa and looked at Lilia. "When I marry her, you have to come. "
Lilia."…. "
Claire helplessly frowned, after yesterday, they basically gave up on persuading Mike.
She was determined to go her own way, so she and her husband just hope that Mike won't regret it in the end.
Right now, Lilia and Mike's eyes collide. The woman then said, "It doesn't matter. As long as you invite me, I will come. Maybe Sis Mellisa will come too,"
Mike lifted the corner of his mouth lopsidedly, looked away and looked out the window, trying to shut out any expression he had.
...
Around ten in the morning, Lilia and the others left the villa.
Outside the door, Claire looked around to see them until their car moved away.
"Honey, it's cold outside, come in." Andrew stood behind her and pressed her. Even though they didn't face each other, they could feel the heavy emotions that travelled through their hearts.
Claire lowered her head and walked back with him. When she opened the door, she suddenly said, "Let them go as soon as possible. I can't share a room with Leila. If they don't, I'll go. I'll go back to Surabaya and live with my family."
Andrew's steps slowed down. He placed a hand on Claire's warm shoulder and asked her to turn around and face him. "Bullshit, this is our house, and they're leaving. I'll explain it to Mike. Since it's his choice, he'll have to bear the consequences alone."
Claire lifted her head and looked into Andrew's worried eyes, but she couldn't smile at all.
This year, the beginning of the year seems very cold.
...
Less than eleven o'clock, the car arrived at the Mayer family house.
At the gates of the complex that was heavily guarded, Axel was already looking forward to welcome them.
As soon as Caleb heard that Lilia was coming back, he stomped his feet with joy.
As it was nearing noon, he went into the kitchen and asked the maids to make more of the dishes that his granddaughter liked.
When the black car came slowly on the shady road in the distance, Axel was already rubbing his hands vigorously.
When the car stopped, he took a step forward and saw Lilia from the window. He said with great enthusiasm, "Miss Lilia, you are finally back!"
"Sorry to keep you waiting, uncle!"
"Come on in right away. Your grandfather's waiting at the house."
Lilia nodded with a smile. Dina then drove the car into the complex without a hitch. Axel also got in and followed them.
Five minutes later, the car stopped in front of the main building of the Mayer complex. When Chris got out of the car, he kept looking around.
Finally, his gaze fell on Lilia.
