My Supermodel Wife-Chapter 925 - Is It True That You Are Not My Brother?
Clifford walked forward and handed him an invitation card. "It was sent by his subordinates, saying that there is a wine party at the Shangri-La hotel tonight. He invited the young master to participate."
At this moment, Leonard narrowed his eyes. "Only Jean?"
Clifford nodded. "There should be only one invitation."
Upon hearing this, Leonard turned to look at the man, then said in a firm tone of voice, "I'll go with you."
Jean still didn't speak, but Clifford said again, "Listening to his subordinates' words, tonight's wine tasting seems to have been specially prepared for Young Master Jean."
Leonard turned his gaze to meet Clifford's eyes. He pursed his lips and sneered. "What does he want?! Jean, what do you think?"
"Let's go together." The man said with deep eyes, then looked at Clifford. "Send my words to them, say that I will come."
"Yes sir!" Clifford turned and left the study after answering.
Leonard looked at the closed door, and when he turned his head, his tone was filled with admiration. "Jean, you are amazing! He actually took the initiative to look for you!"
Facing Leonard's praise, the man said calmly and with a small smile. As he spat out a circle of smoke, he changed the conversation and asked, "When are you and Mellisa leaving overseas?"
"June 5th."
Jean nodded after hearing the voice. "Then, I can't escort you to your departure, Lilia and I have to return to Surabaya tomorrow."
Leonard frowned in surprise. "Soon?"
"Well, something happened."
Seeing this, Leonard wanted to force him to stay but he swallowed it again.
Jean and Lilia came to Bandung to help him.
Now that everything is settled, they have no more reason to stay here.
Leonard sighed silently, staring at the man's handsome and delicate cheeks, a deep gratitude echoed in his heart.
...
In the afternoon, Mellisa and Lilia also learned about wine tasting. The two sisters sat in the living room, speculating seriously about Frans' intention.
At this time, just after 13.30, a figure rushed in from the door.
Ignoring the obstruction of the housekeeper and the maid, he rushed into the living room, his eyes glanced, and he asked with dark red eyes, "Where is my brother?
Melissa and Lilia lifted their eyes, but just as they were about to speak, Leonard and Jean had appeared on the stairs.
"Lyle, what is it?"
Leonard walked down the stairs quietly, and raised his eyebrows almost imperceptibly when he met Lyle's bloodshot eyes.
"Brother, did you know that our parents are getting divorced?"
Lyle looked at Leonard angrily like a wronged child.
After he finished speaking, Mellisa and Lilia looked at each other in astonishment.
A divorce between Leonhart and Michelle?!
At this time, Leonard was already in front of Lyle, and with a calm expression he said, "I know…."
Hearing this, Lyle suddenly gasped and ignored the other figure. He immediately choked his mouth. "Did you know that we're not real siblings?"
Leonard's expression changed suddenly.
He narrowed his eyes, his face contorted with sullen rage. "Who told you?"
"Mom told me, she said you're not my brother! So dad wanted to divorce her because of you!"
Leonard wanted to slam the table when he heard it!
There were some things he didn't want Lyle to know, not to hide them, but just to not increase Lyle's psychological burden.
Unexpectedly, he underestimated his stepmother!
Leonard's handsome face looked down coldly, and he turned to look at Jean after a while. "I'll go out first, and I'll be back before five o'clock."
The man nodded, his cold eyes sweeping over Lyle which was filled with an expression of grievance. It made him sigh.
Not long after, Leonard took Lyle and left the Royal Garden. The two brothers got into the car outside the door, and their faces were very ugly.
Melissa stood in front of the living room's window and watched this scene. Until the car was far away, she turned and looked at Lilia, "You think what Lyle said is true?"
Lyle said impulsively, it wasn't like some kind of bullshit.
If the head of the family really wanted a divorce because of Leonard, then it could be true!
Lilia got up from the sofa, came to Melissa's side, followed her gaze and looked out the window. "I don't think the patriarch is a reckless person. But the expression when Lyle said that… I guess it's kind of true. But sis, you don't need to think about it, we don't know the whole story. After my brother-in-law comes back, I'm sure he will tell the truth."
Mellisa faintly sighed, she felt her heart suddenly turn heavy.
Although she did not like Michelle's personality, the divorce between the head of the family and the wife was very complicated, and she was worried that it would not be easy.
...
Not far from the Royal Garden, Leonard ordered the driver to stop.
The sun was shining bright but not too hot, and there was a path surrounded by trees.
Leonard led Lyle to the center of the courtyard, turned and stood still, then he asked, "Have you calmed down?"
Lyle nodded languidly. "Hmm!"
"Then tell me now, what did mom tell you?"
Leonard stayed where he was, the sun piercing through the dense leaves, forming a halo at their feet.
He saw Lyle's frustrated expression, his eyes full of helplessness.
At this moment, Lyle quietly looked at Leonard, and mumbled, "She told me that you are not her son, but the son of someone else."
"She also said… Because of your existence, the next head of the Adler family will never belong to me."
After speaking, Lyle secretly glanced at Leonard's expression, and stopped talking.
"What else is there?" Leonard said with one hand in his trouser pocket as he continued to raise his eyebrows.
Lyle turned his face away and looked away, his voice very low. "Mother said you never treated me as a little brother. Father's purpose for divorce was because he wanted to get rid of mother and me so that you could rule the Adler family without any problems in the future."
Leonard laughed after his words were finished.
He never expected that the woman whom he had considered as his biological mother since childhood, and the mother he had respected for so many years, would begin to separate him and Lyle in such a despicable manner.
Leonard narrowed his eyes and looked at the dappled shadows of the trees on the ground, the smile on his lips filled with ridicule.
Lyle looked at him from time to time, seeing that he had not spoken for a long time, he was very anxious. "Brother, what are you laughing at?"
"Did she say anything else?"
Lyle shook his head quickly. "She wanted to say something else, but I couldn't hear her anymore, so I ran outside to look for you."
Leonard saw Lyle's dull and depressed expression, pursed his lips, and asked, "Do you believe it then?"
Lyle shook his head subconsciously. "I can't believe it!"
In his heart, he had loved running around behind his older brother ever since he was a child. 𝗳𝙧𝐞𝚎w𝗲𝚋n𝚘𝙫𝑒𝘭.𝑐om
Even though his eldest brother was neglected, Leonard always treated him well!
As for the heir to the Adler family… He didn't even think about it.
He knew how much burden he would bear and he knew better than anyone that if he inherited the position of head of the family, he could destroy his entire family's fortune within three years....
