My Supermodel Wife (For Sale!)

Chapter 591 - Couldn't Be Delayed Any More 



The sharp sound made Jean's brows immediately furrow.

He took a step closer, and as he stood at the entrance to the living room, he saw Mellisa's arms droop. "Leonard, don't touch me again!"

Obviously, it was their argument that caused the teacup to break.

Leonard was only a few steps away, surrounded by stains and porcelain shards that fell to his feet.

At this time, Lilia hurriedly descended the stairs and finally asked, "What's wrong?"

She immediately went out of the bathroom once she heard the sound and thought that the atmosphere in the living room seemed wrong.

Mellisa took a deep breath, not wanting to worry her sister.  When she held back her anger, she looked up and smiled, "Nothing, I didn't hold the teacup properly."

Leonard could only scratch his nape hard, his head was almost crushed by the said tea cup. 

Lilia patted her chest, and as she descended the stairs, she saw Jean stopped in the living room, making her a little surprised. "Aren't you busy at work?"

When she woke up, she saw only Mellisa and Leonard.

After asking them, she found out that Jean had something to do.

Lilia thought the man had gone to the company, but she didn't expect Jean to come back in less than an hour.

Mellisa and Leonard looked back at the same time, and when they saw Jean, they blinked.

"Please come out and help me!" The man looked at Leonard who was standing beside the sofa and said while looking at the rubble on the ground.

Leonard raised his eyebrows and nodded. "Come on!"

He looked deeply at Mellisa, carefully stepped across the messy floor and followed Jean with a sigh.

In the living room, Lilia watched the two of them leave, then looked at Mellisa with frowning brows. She then sat beside her and said with a smile, "Are you two fighting again?"

Even though Mellisa didn't say anything, Lilia knew that her sister's relationship with Leonard had not been good lately. She realized that the two easily fell into arguments.

Lilia thought the situation was getting calm, but it seemed that the feud between the two was getting worse.

Mellisa pursed her lips and shook her head, her eyes fixed on the floor. "I didn't fight anyone, my hands just slipped when holding the cup."

She bent and crouched down to avoid Lilia's suspicious gaze while picking up the teacup pieces little by little.

Lilia noticed her movements and sighed helplessly. As soon as she wanted to help, she was stopped by Mellisa. "I'll clean up, don't move."

Mellisa was very strict, so Lilia could only give her a tissue and keep talking to her. "Be careful, don't get your hand hurt."

Mellisa wrapped the pieces in paper towels, took a few more and wiped the floor. "I want to stay here tonight. Is that okay?"

Lilia didn't hesitate to think. "Of course! But... Will he agree?"

"Don't worry about him, I heard you have morning sickness today. I wanted to accompany you tonight. I heard that morning sickness hurts a lot. I might be able to help you alleviate it if I stay here."

Mellisa explained while wiping the floor. Meanwhile, Lilia smiled and joked. "I just vomited water, so calm down. But if you want to stay, stay here, I'm fine with it. Actually, I'm very happy if you want to stay overnight. We will clean your bedroom together in a moment,"

After Mellisa wiped the floor clean, she stood up and looked at the debris in her hands. "Where should I  throw this?"

"The trash can in the kitchen, or you can give it to me ..."

"Sit down and I'll do it alone!" Just as Lilia was thinking about getting up, she was held back by Mellisa again.

She turned around and saw Mellisa's figure going into the kitchen, lowering her eyelids, and covering her worries.

Mellisa had started avoiding her. What was going on between her and Leonard?

Was it because Leonard had a fiancée appointed for him?!

In the kitchen, Mellisa dumped the fragments from the tissue in the trash. When the shard was thrown away, she felt a pain in her palm and suddenly frowned.

She opened her hand and saw a scratch, with faint blood gushing out.

She pulled her lips nonchalantly then wiped the drops of blood with her thumb. And when she lifted her eyes, she saw her reflection reflected in the side window.

The light dimmed on her face, and Mellisa looked at it anxiously and laughed at herself for a bit.

'Really, it couldn't be delayed any longer….'

...

Outside the door, Leonard and Jean were standing in front of the courtyard, smoking a cigarette.

The corners of his eyebrows and eyes were filled with sadness and his smoking gesture seemed very excited.

"Is your family stressing you out?" The man turned his gaze towards Leonard as he inhaled his cigarette and blew out the mist.

Hearing that voice, he sneered. "It's more than just pressure. Their fiancée has been sent to my family's house,and they're just waiting for me to come back for 'luck'!"

Leonard felt that what he said was sad, but it was true.

The man narrowed his eyes. "Did Mellisa know?"

"Yes." Leonard smiled bitterly and nodded. "Not only that, my family also knows where Mellisa is. Two days ago, my trusted person in my family told me that they would do everything for me to marry that woman."

"I don't know what they were thinking, but Mellisa changed a lot after that. Anyway, I wanted to tell you today that I might have to go back to Bandung."

He took Mellisa's phone and severed her contact with the outside world for this reason.

Leonard had his own concerns. If his family decided to attack Melissa, it would be impossible for him to protect her on his own.

Jean met with his deep eyes as he said, "What are you planning to do? If your family has appointed that woman as a candidate, that's enough to prove that she met all the criteria."

"It doesn't matter! She didn't meet mine, that woman is still not my ideal."

Leonard's tone suddenly became arrogant, and the woman he wanted would always be Mellisa. 

Jean didn't say much about Leonard's family matters. After they both finished smoking, Leonard looked at him. "What are you asking me to help you with?"

"In the trunk of the car."

When Leonard followed him into the garage and saw with his own eyes that the entire trunk was full of fruit and sweets, he took a box in his hand and turned it over. "Did you just empty the entire supermarket? "

"I might buy the whole building if she wants it all!"

Leonard was speechless. 

Such a rich bastard.

...

That night, Mellisa did not go anywhere. After dinner, she said that she wanted to rest, so she went to the bedroom and never went out.

Leonard chatted with Jean in the living room, while Lilia played with the candy box fruit on the coffee table.

She put the plums in, so a sweet and sour taste spread across her mouth, and her eyes narrowed comfortably.

"You bought too much, I don't know which one to eat first," Lilia said while looking at the pile of food.

The man leaned back on the sofa with his legs folded, studied his wife's satisfied expression then pursed his lips and smiled. "Eat what you think is delicious."

"This plum is delicious, you have to taste it!" Lilia smiled and rolled a plum into her husband's mouth.

Opposite them, Leonard was seen picking up an apple and tried to keep his gaze off them. His eyes stared across the second floor. "I'll go up and take a look."

The man then got up and left without looking back.

Sitting in the living room while watching their lovey-dovey activities really hurt him.

Looking back at his relationship with Mellisa, it felt like earth and sky if compared!

No matter how good he was, he couldn't break Mellisa's cold heart.
