Lilia is shocked. "When was it resolved?"
All this time, they were basically dealing with the matters of the Pangestu family as well as Leila.
And Jean still had the energy to resolve the problem between the company and the landowner?!
"Last week!" The man's gentle tone seemed to speak of an ordinary trivial matter, as if he didn't really care much about the affairs of his company.
Lilia took the boiled egg that she handed over and took a bite. "Is Alfred behind it?"
"What do you think?" The man pursed his lips and raised his eyebrows.
Lilia curled up. "I didn't guess it, but somehow his name just popped into my mind. Even the money transfers in Sylvia's bank account should have something to do with him."
At this time, the man put his cutlery on the table. "The bank account for the money transfer was just created, but on the day of the money transfer, Albert was indeed out of the country, and he was doing business at the same place."
After that, Lilia thought about it and came to a conclusion. "So Alfred bought Sylvia, and Albert ran the money overseas."
Her expression was filled with disgust, she couldn't help but twist her brows in anger. "Father and son are both rotten! But I still can't guess what Alfred thought or what his goal was in the end. From the beginning until now, he's thrown away so much. When it comes to competition in the industry, I don't believe it at all."
With a secretive expression and soft brows, Jean spoke deeply, "Maybe, that's an old grudge!"
"When did you two become enemies?" Lilia couldn't believe this statement.
In response to this, the man held the frown between his brows, and nodded his head from across the table. "Don't worry about these things, even if the sky is falling, I'll always be there to protect you."
Lilia stared at him, the tip of her teeth biting the corner of her mouth and didn't say anything.
Jean obviously didn't want her to know too much!
When it came to old grudges... Lilia was afraid it wasn't that simple.
...
This morning, the man went to the company after breakfast.
Lilia is bored at home while playing with her cellphone, and she is always confused by Alfred's actions.
Jean didn't want her to worry about it, but husband and wife were one, and Alfred repeatedly tried to get in their way, so Lilia was worried he wouldn't stop here.
Old grudges...
Thinking of this, Lilia opens her browser and starts looking for clues related to Alfred.
However, there is very little information about him on the Internet, and only some of his past financial reports.
After thinking about it, she looked for content about the Ricardo family in Yogyakarta, and it was clear that the information was also deliberately blocked, almost non-existent.
Lilia is a little frustrated, and while she is thinking about finding the right password, a message pops up on her screen.
It was from Harold.
Harod: You have been nominated as best supporting artist for the Annual Film Festival Award. [Likes]
Harold: The "Chosen Kingdom" crew is very supportive of you.
Seeing this news, Lilia was in a daze for a moment.
She was nominated for best actress!
She held her cell phone, and her mind was full for a moment.
When she took on the role in the film, she just wanted to enrich her professional resume.
Unexpectedly, she got additional benefits she'd never thought.
She didn't reply to Harold, but went to an internet search page for a list of nominees for the Annual Film Festival Award.
Of the four actors who have been nominated, the rest are film entertainers with familiar faces.
She was the only newcomer who was nominated for the first time.
Lilia pondered at her phone's screen for a moment, then returned to the chat interface and replied to Harold
Lilia: When was the award ceremony?
Harold: In two months.
Lilia answered with a sticker, walked to the window with her cellphone, and started to get dazed.
In two months, if she attended the awards ceremony, she was afraid that she would not be able to cover up her pregnancy.
However, it's too early, and too much worry will only add to her stress.
After a while, Harold sent another picture.
Harold: Our office has a new arrival, all new artists are excavated from Aphrodite!
Harold: How have you been? I have several employment contracts in hand, and various brands are waiting to hear from you.
Lilia looked at her cell phone's screen, and after thinking for a moment, she answered.
Lilia: Starting next month, let's focus on the newcomers. The announcement related to me can be reduced as much as possible.
Harold: OK, finally I can work with a mother.
Lilia was speechless.
She looked at Harold's ridiculous text stupidly, then lowered her head and stroked her lower belly.
Time flies so fast, this child is past three months old.
...
As Lilia felt, time seemed to have passed through her by mistake.
After returning to Surabaya, everyone's life has basically returned to its original point.
In the following week, Lilia's life also returned to normal.
But whether it was Joe or Harold, the work that was arranged for her was relatively straightforward and simple.
Today, which coincided with Saturday, Lilia returned backstage after shooting a skincare endorsement commercial.
Dina and Rini followed her.
Harold smokes with the director outside of the set and watches the filming.
Lilia returned to the changing room, and as soon as she sat down, Dina walked over while carrying her bag. "Madame, there have been missed calls."
"Let me see!" She took out her cell phone, unlocked the screen, and saw the missed calls from her sister-in-law.
She put her purse on the dresser and called back.
Immediately after connecting, Irene smiled and asked, "LIlia, are you finished?"
"Sorry, sister-in-law, I still have work to do!"
Irene is very open-minded. "It's okay, I know you still have a job. I called you just to ask, have you made an appointment to go to the hospital for your pregnancy check-up?"
Lilia recalled the message sent to her by Amelia, and replied, "I've made an appointment with the doctor the day after tomorrow!"
"Then, my husband and I will stay at your house tomorrow. I'll go with you on Monday morning!"
Lilia immediately agreed. "Okay, we will wait for your arrival then."
After hanging up the phone, she changed her clothes and left the location.
After shooting this commercial today, her work was basically put on hold.
Now that her stomach had swollen up a little, she didn't want to be too tired from it.
On the way home, Lilia was seen thinking about her next plan.
She did not intend to announce the trivialities of her life, nor did she intend to publicize her pregnancy.
Under the premise that she can't work in the future, she happens to have plenty of time developing Lilia Studio.
As for Jean ... he seems really busy lately, he always comes out early and comes home late.
Several real estate projects have begun construction, and the housing pre-sale phase has begun ahead of schedule.
In the car, Lilia's mind continues to spin, she is working hard to plan her present life and future life. However, the car suddenly stopped which snapped her out of her reverie.
Dina looked back from the driver's seat and said in a worried tone, "Madame, are you alright?"
