Impossible to Forget You

After making Jean let go of her hand with great difficulty, Lilia stole a glance at the man. Jean's expression looked like an abandoned puppy.

Lilia was confused again. Jean Widjaya was every woman's dream man. He was a wealthy businessman, born from a conglomerate family, and also handsome. Plus, they had met for the first time a week ago. Jean didn't look like someone who believed in love at first sight.

Why was such a great man acting as if he really fell in love with Lilia?

A guess came to Lilia's mind.

"Jean, have we met before?" Lilia immediately voiced her suspicions.

Lilia would never be able to receive all the love and attention from Jean until she figured out why.

Jean's face suddenly turned expressionless, "Maybe." His answer was short.

Lilia could only stare blankly at Jean, 'What kind of answer is that?!'

Lilia refused to give up and this time she leaned towards Jean, "What do you mean? I just want to know if you've met me before!" Lilia urged.

Jean's lips formed a thin line as he glanced at Lilia's excited face.

"Just think for yourself."

In an instant, Jean returned to being the arrogant and cold man Lilia had first met.

Lilia didn't want to make the mood of the man beside her even worse. She stopped asking Jean and looked back out the window. Jean's attitude showed that the man didn't want to tell her.

Lilia's frown deepened. She had a good memory and never experienced amnesia like the one in the television drama series. If she had met a man as handsome and great as Jean Widjaya, surely she would not have forgotten him!

The man sitting beside Lilia stole a glance at the woman. Jean quietly sighed when he saw Lilia frown with a confused expression. As expected, this woman really didn't remember him.

Lilia's mind returned to the real world when the limo stopped. She saw Jean's house and was about to protest, but Lilia remembered Jean's bad mood. If she protested and irritated him even more, she couldn't imagine what he would do to her, so Lilia wisely decided not to comment.

That night, Lilia didn't sleep well. For some reason, she repeatedly dreamed of the figure of a boy. The boy turned his back on Lilia and walked away from her. Lilia kept running after the boy, but she could never see his face.

*****

The next morning, when Lilia came down to the dining room, there was only Sister Mei who was busy preparing breakfast. According to the middle-aged woman, Jean had already left for the office because there was an important meeting.

Lilia sat down at the dining table and started chewing on her sandwich. She felt as if she dreamed of someone who was very important to her last night, but she couldn't remember who it was. As a result, Lilia lost her appetite and took an hour to finish her breakfast.

Just as Lilia finished eating, her father called. Robert told Lilia that he and Sylvia were going to Jakarta for a week. Apart from that, her father also asked Lilia to visit Daniel, her younger brother who was 4 years younger than her. Lilia complied with that small request without knowing that it would cause unexpected trouble.

Lilia always wondered why her parents routinely went to Jakarta every two or three months. She repeatedly asked Robert that question, but her father always replied that this was a business trip. After getting the same answers over and over again, Lilia stopped trying to find out.

Around lunch time, Harold suddenly called her.

"How is Rina's condition?" Lilia immediately asked when the phone was connected.

"...I heard she was hospitalized." Harold replied after recovering from his shock, "I did not think you would ask about Rina. How about you? Are you in trouble?"

"No, I'm fine." Lilia added to herself, "Thanks to Jean and his friends." If they didn't come help her, Lilia would be the one in the hospital right now.

As Lilia didn't explain further, Harold guessed that she didn't want to talk about it, "In that case, thank God. I just came back from out of town and was immediately greeted by this incident! Can't that woman give me a break? I have to work overtime to take care of canceling her contract as a model! But I will make sure Rina pays compensation equal to all the trouble she caused!" He grumbled.

Lilia was grateful that the man didn't ask for the details of Rina's incident, though she was also curious about the reason, "You're not going to ask me?"

Harold laughed blankly, "This incident happened during the Widjaya Family celebration party, right? I can already imagine what happened then!"
