My Supermodel Wife-Chapter 50 - Dinner Promise
Even though Jean didn't fully understand Lilia's request, he didn't ask any further.
After the incident where Lilia scolded him for arranging everything without asking her opinion, Jean understood something. This woman in front of him did not rely on others and had her own thoughts. Lilia was not a bird in a cage.
The best thing that Jean could do for such a woman was to respect her wishes.
"Thank you very much, Jean." Lilia's voice pulled the man back to reality. Lilia gave the biggest smile Jean had ever seen. Her beautiful face was radiant and she looked even cuter than usual, "This information is very helpful. I'm glad I asked for your help."
'What a cunning woman' Jean thought to himself. If Lilia continued to show him such a cute smile, he wouldn't be able to refuse whatever the woman asked. His desire to tease Lilia came back.
"Just a thank you?" Jean crossed his arms and raised his eyebrows, "Do you think that's enough?"
Lilia's smile froze. Jean stifled a laugh when he saw Lilia looking around, as if looking for a way to escape.
"Um ... how about I buy you dinner?" Lilia suggested the first thing that came to her mind.
However, Lilia's face turned red in embarrassment seconds later because she had given the exact same answer as before. Jean felt that this woman's unique mindset had never changed. Since when did a rich man like him let his fiancée treat him? f𝙧ee𝘄𝐞𝚋𝐧૦ѵeƖ.c𝘰𝓶
Jean chuckled, "I thought I told you I didn't need a treat." While saying that, Jean punched in Kenny's extension number, "Reserve a place at Hirayuki Restaurant." His words were short.
"Understood, President!"
Lilia looked closely at the man who was hanging up the phone. When she thought that Jean's dominant attitude had improved, the man made another decision without asking her opinion.
"Hm, even though I wanted to invite you to eat something spicy." Lilia quipped.
"Don't worry, Hirayuki Restaurant also has spicy food." Jean replied casually, "Whatever you want to eat, you can find it there."
Lilia took a deep breath. This man had absolutely no intention of improving his attitude!
*****
Hirayuki Restaurant was located on the outskirts of town. Even though the location was far from the crowds, this restaurant was actually popular because of its quiet atmosphere and beautiful mountain views. Hirayuki Restaurant was also famous for using only natural ingredients in its cooking.
When Jean and Lilia arrived, it was six o'clock. The twilight atmosphere and the smell of the fresh grass gave Lilia a feeling of calm and peace. She walked along the path towards the restaurant with light steps.
Every now and then she glanced at the man walking beside her. Jean had left his coat at the office and was wearing only a black shirt. His blonde hair contrasted the dim atmosphere.
A restaurant waiter escorted them to an outdoor dining room that showed a clear view of the mountain. The tables were made of chiseled stone and the wooden chairs were lined with soft cushions for customers to sit comfortably.
Lilia looked around, admiring the classy-looking open dining room and its natural atmosphere. But there was one thing that bothered her. In a place this wide that could accommodate dozens of people, there were only the two of them.
After sitting down at one of the tables, Lilia asked Jean this, "I heard this restaurant is very popular and it's really hard to get a table. But why isn't anyone other than us here now?"
The waitress in charge of their table opened her mouth to explain, but Jean shot her a sharp gaze. The waiter hastily covered her mouth and handed them the menu book in silence.
"Even popular restaurants can get lonely at times." Jean said without showing any guilt, "Just enjoy this rare opportunity."
Lilia hid her smile behind the menu book. It looked like Kenny ordered this whole place just so they wouldn't be disturbed by their dinner.
As Lilia started reading the menu book, she heard a notification sound from her cell phone. She put down the menu and immediately checked her phone. The notification said that Lilia got a new SMS.
She opened the message and her eyes flashed with pleasure when she saw the name of the sender. Alfred Ricardo, Daniel's trustee lecturer. The man informed her that the student's parents had agreed to meet and discuss the case in two days 𝗳𝘳𝒆𝘦𝑤𝐞𝚋𝗻𝚘𝘷𝘦𝙡.𝑐𝐨𝘮
When Jean finished ordering and closed the menu book, he found that Lilia hadn't touched the menu and was busy with her phone. Jean frowned in annoyance before stealing glances at Lilia's phone screen. He could see the woman was reading an SMS instead of a message from another app.
"Is there any problem?" Jean tried to ask in a tone as neutral as possible.
Lilia didn't even look up and just shook her head, "Nothing, I'll be finished soon."
Jean didn't question her anymore as his eyes turned icy cold. He had investigated everything about Lilia, including people she communicated with frequently. However, all communication was always done via Other applications. This made the person grabbing his fiancée's attention right now was someone Jean didn't know.
'Who is it?' Jean's eyes flashed menacingly, making the waiter standing beside the table tremble with fear.
