The man nodded, "Yes."

Lilia was speechless.

She glared at Jean, reached out and gently pinched the soft flesh on the man's waist. "Looks like Mr. Jean Widjaya has been involved in this plan from the start, huh? Now you like to play secrets, aren't you afraid we will experience a marriage crisis?"

The man's thin lips revealed a light smile, and he pulled down his wife's hand casually, and sighed as he held it in his palm. "If Mike knelt in front of you crying and begging you, what would you do?"

Lilia was dumbfounded for a moment.

Did Mike kneel in front of Jean?!

Suddenly, she choked in her own voice, and she couldn't ask any more questions.

Once Lilia managed to calm her emotions, she asked with difficulty, "When did that happen?"

The man tugged at her and looked out at the bright window. "In my sister's apartment."

After thinking a little, Lilia suddenly realized. "Was that when I met you in the corridor that night?"

Seeing the man's nod, Lilia pursed her lips and stopped talking.

At that time, she saw Jean coming out of the room, and after asking him, he said he just answered a call.

Lilia didn't expect that the truth would be so different.

"I didn't mean to hide it from you, but he managed to change my mind. If I didn't go forward, he would walk this path on his own, which would be very hard for him. I even thought that the plan wouldn't work at all."

Jean was worried about Lilia's heart, so he hugged her waist and slowly explained in her ear.

As a man, he was struck by Mike's feelings for Mellisa.

At that time, he was cut off from all sources of income from the Austin family and returned to Indonesia with Leila, and he was doomed to not be forgiven by everyone.

If it weren't for despair, he wouldn't have done any of that.

At this moment, Lilia was still in shock knowing that the arrogant Mike was kneeling before Jean. And after hearing Jean's explanation, she shook her head quietly. "I don't blame you, because even if you didn't help him, he would definitely continue to do it in his own way. But it was better for you to move forward, at least to make sure that the plan was carried out safely. It's just ... with him kneeling, don't we need to tell Mellisa about it? What do you think?"

It's about the dignity of a man, especially in front of Mellisa, the only person Mike went through all this hell for.

The man replied, "I was thinking about it too."

Lilia took a deep glance at him, then her face was firm. "Hey, this is the first time you've been hiding something from me, and I hope this is the last time. If that happens again..."

After speaking, she raised her eyebrows and touched her stomach, openly threatening Jean.

The expression on her face seemed to say, 'Lie to me one more time and I'll take your child away!'

The man's gaze gently descended on her. "I will not dare, Mrs. Widjaya. So just calm down!"

...

Outside the restaurant, Mellisa and Mike were seen standing in the smoking area.

They smoked in a hurry and looked worried.

Mike stared at her, then forcefully looked away, smiling and joking. "Don't smoke too fast, no one will rob you."

Mellisa stopped from taking another smoke, her fingertips tightened.

She lowered her head and looked down at the bottom of her stomach, the emotions in her eyes were very complicated.

It didn't take long for her heart to feel sad. When she looked at Mike, she gave the most sincere smile of her life. "Mike, thanks for everything!"

"Why are you so polite? You have said before that we are both good friends. There is no need to thank me!"

He saw the deep colors in Mellisa's eyes and explained with a smile. "You don't need to be annoyed. The reason why I told everyone I like you is simply to find a sensible reason to deal with Leila. You know, I always think of you as a friend, you are not my type!"

Mellisa listened to his joke, and a stormy sea immediately appeared in the depths of her eyes.

But she hid it well, lowered her head and smiled slightly.

She understands that Mike doesn't want her to have a psychological burden, so the man deliberately uses this method to get their friendship back on track.

Mellisa looked down, her eyes fixed on the burning cigarette.

She thought that if given the chance, she would do anything for Mike in this life.

But still, she couldn't give him the proper response.

Perhaps, just continuing to hang out with the guy would slowly melt her heart.

Mellisa sighed softly, her cigarette was extinguished, and there was a sound of footsteps from behind her.

Mike looked at Matthew, he bent his head forward in a low voice. "Grandpa, everyone, sorry that I didn't tell you before!"

Matthew looked at Mike, but he didn't speak at all.

His gaze caught Mellisa not far away. He didn't say anything. He just sighed and shook his head. "You have been so stubborn since you were a child, you have to discuss things with your family before you make decisions in the future. You can't be so stubborn, remember you are not alone in this world."

His precious grandson is destined to suffer for love.

He is young, but he has done extraordinary things for his unrequited love.

Mike's throat caught as he nodded. "Grandpa, don't worry, it won't happen again in the future."

"Then let's go back first. Your oldest brother and the others are still there. When you're done, go back to the house. I have asked the maids to cook a delicious meal for all of you. "

"Okay, grandpa!"

Mike and Mellisa stood there watching them go. A cool breeze came slowly in the sun, clearing the smoke and the pungent smell of cigarettes.

A few minutes later, Mike and Mellisa returned to the banquet hall.

Bernard had gone along with the Austin family.

All that was left here was Dennis as the representative of the Mayer family. Lilia and friends finally sat down at the table, had a simple lunch. At 1.30 pm then left for the mental hospital.

Dina drove the black car with joy.

On the way, when Lilia sat down, she looked out the window and slowly cleared her mind. She hit the shoulder of the handsome man and asked, "It's on the outskirts of the town?"

"Yes, a private hospital called Laurana Mental Hospital."

Lilia had guessed it, only private hospitals could accept Leila that quickly.

However, she did not expect that this hospital would not only be private, but also have a familiar name.

Half an hour later, the vehicle arrived at the hospital parking lot. Lilia was standing at the entrance of the building. Looking at the nameplate, she thought about life.

If she remembers correctly, this hospital belongs to Leonard's family in Bandung.

Lilia dragged her elbow, rubbed her chin with her thumb, then turned her head and looked at the smiling man beside her. She smiled hesitantly. "Was this hospital opened by an acquaintance?"

"Have you guessed it?" The man's tone seemed to be teasing her, but there was a slight constriction in his eyes.

Lilia pursed her lips. "Is he here?"

The man led her into the lobby and slowly said in a low voice, "No, but Doctor Lawrence is here."

Doctor Lawrence.. Oh! That golden hand surgeon!

At this time, Mellisa, who was walking behind them, also saw the name of the hospital.

Her eyes flickered slightly as her heartbeat suddenly accelerated.
