Seeing this, Harold's eyes flickered, and he stopped talking.
He didn't tell Lilia everything that William had been through, and it didn't seem like a coincidence.
The agent told him that there was another reason why no one in the entertainment industry wanted to be in a relationship with William. According to rumors, he seemed to have offended someone.
The specific story in it is not clear, but there is a director who is not afraid of these things and takes William under their wings.
However, less than a week after filming began, there was a problem with crew funding.
Many investors withdrew their capital, almost letting the filming die!
Later, Harold heard that the director was threatened, saying that if he dared to use William, investors would definitely back off.
The directors in the circle were the most superstitious. After that, William clearly lost his good name. As if mentioning him out in the public would bring misfortune.
And the director who decided to use William deleted the scene and threw it away.
On the second day, the investor miraculously returned!
The news spread like wildfire, and with this, William was destined to be unable to return to the circle.
Harold connected all the dots, and he had a bold guess in his heart.
The person who can make many investors bow down is probably ... Jean Widjaya.
The man never said much.
But every shot he released always kills people without realizing it.
William wanders around Lilia for so long in the name of an old love, and ends up putting on a sad drama in an inhuman way.
The most generous man, even if he could ignore their previous feelings, couldn't tolerate when he hurt Lilia.
Jean Widjaya was truly both a frightening and honorable figure!
...
At half past nine that night, a group of people left KTV.
Tom drank five beers and was already floating in the clouds.
Vivi and Lilia stood by the car door and looked at him with difficulty.
"Lilia, just tell me how good my singing is?! Is it better than the original song?!"
Lilia looked away from her cheek and scratched the tip of her nose.
He sings with that voice… like a pig.
Not to mention…
Vivi grabbed Lilia's arm and said with a serious face, "Lilia, I'm sorry, I won't choose a place like KTV anymore."
After that, she rubbed her own hand. "Are your ears okay? I still feel my eardrums ringing, maybe my ears need surgery!"
At this time, Harold was supporting Tom's elbow with one hand, and he looked at Lilia. He then said to Lilia and Vivi, "It's fine if you two want to go, I'll take a taxi to take him back!"
"Let's go together!" Lilia suggested. "Let Dina send you two first, and then…"
Harold raised his hand and interrupted. "No, he drank too much and he reeked of alcohol. I'll take him all the way home, you two go first. See you tomorrow at the company!"
After seeing this, Lilia nodded and agreed. "Then give me the taxi bill tomorrow!"
"Okay, see you!"
With Harold around, Lilia didn't mind the presence of a drunk Tom.
When she and Vivi walked towards the car, Tom was still wailing in his place. "My dear, how are you~"
Lilia, Vivi, Harold. "..."
What a funny guy!
As she got into the car, Lilia sighed.
Sure enough, Tom started to let out his 'deadly' voice and sang happily.
However, Lilia had also prepared a gift that she wanted to give her husband tonight!
Back at the Lakeside Villa, Lilia and Vivi climbed the stairs happily to get changed.
Vivi, who was still standing in the living room, suddenly said, "Lilia!"
"Hah? What is it?" Lilia stood on the stairs and looked back. Seeing Vivi showing embarrassment, she walked back to her side.
Vivi smirked. "I just wanted to say, tomorrow... I'm going home. My problems with Ludwig have all been resolved, I can't continue to stay at your house every day."
Lilia was a little surprised. "If everything is settled, of course I won't stop you. But... are you sure that they won't bother you anymore? Doesn't he know where you live?!"
Vivi nodded. "They know, but Ludwig certainly won't dare to come again. Tom has made his word today. If he finds out they dare to harass me again, they will have to hide far in the future."
Hearing that Vivi was determined to leave, Lilia couldn't force her to stay.
She stepped forward and reached out her hand to tug at her cheek. "If you're sure there's no problem, come back. You probably want some time to yourself, right? After today, I'll occasionally go check on you if I have time!"
Vivi looked at Lilia's beautiful and soft eyebrows. She pressed the corner of her mouth tightly, pulled her hand, and hugged her. "Lilia, you are really kind! If it wasn't for your help, I might not know what to do!"
"Vivi!" Lilia was hugged by her, and couldn't help but call out her name. "You are so...!"
Vivi let go of her hand. "I'm what? Who just sang a love song and asked me to record?"
Lilia, who just sang a love song. "…"
"Hahaha! Okay, I'm going to take a shower. Go back and rest. I'll go to the company with you tomorrow morning. My car is still parked downstairs since I planned to go home after the interview!"
Vivi urged Lilia, then ran to the stairs, and entered the guest room on the second floor.
Lilia looked at her happy back and smiled.
She preferred her friend this way. Smiling happily, crying happily, without so many depressive stories, looking all innocent like a small child.
...
At ten, Lilia finished bathing, holding her cell phone and sitting on the bed.
She turned on the screen and opened her gallery. After she watched the video for 3 minutes and 41 seconds, the corner of her mouth lifted accidentally.
At 10:05, Jean received a message on his cell phone.
He knew that Lilia was having a party with her friend tonight, so he didn't bother wanting to disturb her rest.
At this moment, the man was sitting at the table in the hotel room, and saw the message sent by her, he then put his work in his hands. It was a video with a faint streak of light.
He raised his eyebrows and clicked the video without hesitation.
The introduction was melodious piano music, as well as a soft hum.
After the beat, the first verse of the song hit his heart hard.
Another summer day
Has come and gone away
In Paris and Rome
But I wanna go home, mmm
May be surrounded by
A million people I
Still feel all alone
Just wanna go home
Oh, I miss you, you know
And I've been keeping all the letters
That I wrote to you
Each one a line or two
I'm fine baby, how are you?
....
Lilia's voice is soft and mesmerizing. And this song seems to express her affection for her husband.
She had never sung to him after realizing it for so long.
Across thousands of seas and mountains, she conveyed her feelings this way.
