My Supermodel Wife

Chapter 588 - Slap By Slap

This press conference, in its rare form, has once again sparked discussion about Lilia throughout the entertainment world.

People regretted that Lilia's network and resources were simply too high. Even the luxury Van brand had fallen under her hands, coupled with a unique 'permanent ambassador' label and endorsement, which was indeed a strong first step after she 'disappeared' from the public eyes for a while.

It was clear she hadn't been away for long, but when she made a comeback, she was able to shock the entire internet.

Having announced the identity of the ambassador, Alex and Maria gave a conceptual explanation of the new spring and summer collections that would be released after the new year.

Lilia sat in the center of the stage with Jean and Chris beside her.

"Hey look, Albert's face is stiff."

Chris' gaze swept toward Albert across the shadows, and the corners of his mouth were filled with ridicule.

Lilia looked forward, but she nodded with a smile. "I saw it too."

Chris then folded his legs, raised his hands and straightened the collar of his shirt. "Remember what I said, if he dares to trouble you, you must immediately terminate your contract with him."

"Don't worry, even if there is a breach of contract, my company can still handle it, Aphrodite won't be able to mess with our family," he added.

At this time, Chris sounded very arrogant despite the fact that he was facing internal problems in the Hartanto family that had not been resolved. However, he was well aware that even if he lost a small part of his family's property due to his previous injury, this would not affect his value.

For now, his strength couldn't be matched by anyone!

Not to mention the funds flowing to his pocket from the entertainment company itself.

After he left Villa Lakeside last night, Chris said that they had to invest 100 billion in the Hartanto family before Lilia agreed to cooperate.

And the most important condition asked by Jean is that Lilia must have absolute freedom!

From this point of view, Lilia's entry into the Hartanto family has been established.

Chris felt refreshed as he thought about this.

He managed to hook an international supermodel like Lilia, and his only goal now is to make sure Lilia comes to his company before that one little girl returns to Indonesia.

Lately, his relationship with that girl has been somewhat lax.

It all started when Chris told Merry that he was going to visit her in the United States, but that his departure had to be delayed because of his grandfather.

From then on, the little girl started giving him cold shoulders. After nearly two months, Chris still saw no sign of improvement in her attitude. This made Merry even more angry.

'Hey ... It's not that I don't want to visit you… But I'm working hard for the people around me!'

Lilia heard his wild tone and couldn't help but laugh. "Okay, I understand, thanks Brother Chris."

Jean glanced faintly at the proud and mischievous Chris next to Lilia.

If he dares to trick his wife, get ready to find himself in the bottom of the sea!

...

At 11 AM nearing the end of the show, the Van brand announced the schedule for their next show.

At the end of February this year, they will participate in more than 70 fashion shows at Paris Fashion Week, and Lilia will be their ambassador.

Currently, the media is conducting an exclusive interview with Lilia in a secluded place.

Outside the crowd, Albert was standing at an inconspicuous corner, staring at her deeply.

After a while, his phone rang, and the man decided to pick it up.

The person on the other end of the phone was a little frightened when delivering his report. Albert's face suddenly sank and he became angry when he heard it. "Free? How can the legal department approve the contract?"

The other party hesitated and said something, but Albert hung up before listening.

He narrowed his eyes and looked at the gathering place of the crowd, squeezed the corner of his mouth and planned to leave without saying a word.

Harold seemed to be signing Lilia's free contract behind his back, that bastard is so brave!

Currently, several media outlets see Albert's figure stepping out of the area. Before leaving, they ran over to interview him. "Mr. Albert, is there a time for an interview?"

Hearing this, several other media outlets turned their gaze and accidentally ran towards Albert.

Lilia is still conducting interview sessions with several special media up front. Since it was so crowded, some journalists didn't get a place. When one of them turned their head, they realized that Albert was there.

Besides, the Aphrodite Agency has been gaining momentum recently!

If they can interview Albert, maybe they can get some of the latest information about Lilia.

In an instant, Albert was surrounded by reporters, and was forced to stop at the same place. The media endlessly asked in his ear.

"Mr. Albert, is this a sign that Lilia is returning to the stage? Are there any plans for her to work in the movie industry in the future?"

"Mr. Albert, there were rumors about a dispute between the agency and Lilia due to a disagreement with Aphrodite's vision and mission some time ago. Is this true?"

"Mr. Albert, everyone is saying that Lilia disappeared from the stage because the agency no longer wants to cooperate with her. Can you confirm this? Wasn't it because Lilia was recovering?"

At this moment, Albert felt dizzy because everyone was talking at once.

He rarely did media interviews in the past, and most of the time he would let the artist's exclusive agent answer them.

At today's press conference, he was invited to come unaccompanied by an assistant or agent.

The questions from the media sounded cunning and sharp, causing his forehead to suddenly sting.

It took Albert a long time to calm down. After calming his face, he said, "Please don't believe the fake rumors. Let them bother you no more."

"Lilia's ability in taking over as an ambassador for the Van brand today is enough to prove that Aphrodite Agency is still working with her."

He did not talk much, but deep down inside Albert knew that Lilia had caused him trouble.

"Mr. Albert, the brand announced that Lilia is their only ambassador. This is the first case in the fashion industry. Can you tell us how much the contract is worth?"

This question left Albert speechless.

The question forced him to tell the truth, common sense discouraged him from lying.

Albert is surrounded, it is very difficult for him to open a path and leave at this time.

When he was confused, someone behind him said, "Everyone, if you have anything you want to know about Lilia, please ask me. Mr. Albert still has his next appointment, please let him pass."

Harold came and said kind words to help Albert.

When he turned around and saw Harold, Albert's face darkened again. But since there was an opportunity, the media no longer asked him so he could leave in peace. The journalists immediately made a way for Albert when they heard Harold's tantalizing words.

The word "free" is completely unheard of.

But for this matter, he wouldn't just let it be!

After Albert left the place, Harold responded casually when asked questions by the media crews. His indifference prevailed that the media were deprived of useful information.

In less than five minutes, Harold received a call from his cell phone. He glanced at it, waved his cell phone at the crowd, then forced his way out of the place.

...

When Harold left, Lilia's visit had just ended.

Several journalists still wanted to ask questions, but they were intercepted by Kenny and Maria.

Outside, Lilia exhaled in exasperation as she stepped in the corridor.

She had a sweat on her face which was only painted with light makeup, completely invisible due to the 'flawless' style and hairdo.
