Chapter 12
Married to the Boss: A Love in Disguise Chapter 12
Very few people knew about Adam's lightning marriage, in addition to his family members, there were only a few people close to him knowing it, including Simon and Stewart. Simon asked him about it on the phone before, he always answered with a smile, "When I return to China, I will take her home."
Ever since being cheated on, every time Adam thought of that the woman was nothing but
"What do you think?"
disgusting, so he didn't want to mention it again anymore, "What do
Simon said, "Adam, just satisfy my curiosity."
"Simon, don't you know Adam's temper? Since he doesn't want to say it, it should be bad." Stewart
seemed to answer casually, but in fact, his every word was inquiring about the real situation between Adam and his wife.
Lumma was also curious about what happened between the president and his wife.
Because the president had not mentioned his wife in front of them for several days.
How could Adam fail to see Stewart's real thoughts? Stewart had spoiled his mood tonight. He looked at Lumma and said, "Let's go."
Simon asked, "Leave now?"
Adam said, "The mood has been spoiled by you guys."
Simon asked again, "Apart from work, what else are you interested in?"
Adam didn't answer anymore, got up and walked out. Lumma quickly followed.
When Adam walked to the hall, he was stopped by a group of people, all raising their glasses to toast
him.
Lumma finally understood why he hid in the card room and played cards. It was really annoying to attend other's banquets and have to deal with these people in the business field. "Sorry! Mr. Hills is not feeling well, so he can't drink today." Lumma stood in front of Adam to stop
anyone who wanted to toast him.
When it came to a situation that really unstoppable, Lumma drank for Adam.
Adam's status was too ostentatious, everyone wanted to get in with the president of the Hills Group. There was an endless stream of people who came to toast, as if he was the protagonist tonight. When Lumma accompanied Adam to finish the social activities, they walked out of the Mill's house. Lumma's head was stupefied, "Mr. Hills, do you think we look like Tripitaka who escaped from the demon's cave?"
"Stupid." Adam gave her one word.
She stopped so much toast for him, and he called her stupid Lumma felt aggrieved in her heart, but she didn't dare to show it, "Mr. Hills thinks I'm stupid, then I'll be stupid.
Adam looked down at her...
For tonight's banquet, she changed out of her usual simple and neat work clothes and wore a sky-blue cheongsam, her hair was still tied into a bun.
The style of cheongsam was very ordinary, but Lumma's figure was good enough. The cheongsam outlined her perfect body curves, and because of drinking, her delicate face and slender neck were tinged with red, which added a bit of sexy to her innocent. It was quite different from her usual
resolute image at work.
The men who toasted just now came for Adam first, and then many of them came for Lumma. They looked at her with greedy and obscene eyes, but she didn't realize it at all, and even foolishly drank one after another.
Adam could stop it, but he didn't. He just wanted to see how stupid she could be. By his side, if you didn't improve yourself, you would be winnowed out eventually.
Adam looked away, "Do you think anyone is worthy of drinking with me? Who can force me to drink.
if I don't drink?"
Lumma was a little drunk, and it made her a little bolder, "Mr. Hills, why didn't you say it earlier? It
caused me to drink so much."
Being stupid and still daring to blame him. Adam raised his eyebrows, "Are you an assistant, or am
I an assistant?"
Lumma was speechless.
Just now she was only thinking that he must not drink, so she rushed in front of him in a fit of
passion, so that no one else could reach him.
But she forgot that a look from his boss could scare those people away.
Lumma smiled, hiding her embarrassment with the smile.
Steve had already been waiting at the gate in the car. Seeing them coming out, he quickly got out of
the car and opened the door.
Adam sat in the back seat of the car, and Lumma consciously sat in the co-driver seat.
Adam subconsciously glanced at the empty space beside him, "Where do you live, let Steve take you home by the way."
umma hiccupped with no care about her image, and waved her hands, "Thank you for your
kindness Mr. Hills, but don't matter, someone will pick me up. Just take me out of the villa area and put me on the side of the road."
The last time she took a taxi to go out alone in the middle of the night, she didn't tell Harry and Ruby, and they pulled a long face to her for the whole day.
So Lumma sent them a message when she knew that she was going to attend a banquet with Adam today, and Harry immediately said that she would drive her back tonight. Adam asked casually, "Your husband?"
Lumma took aback, it seemed that he had heard her conversation with Simon before.
Her husband in name only had long been not knowing where to go, so how could he drive to pick her
up?
Lumma smiled and said nothing, and Adam took it as her acquiescence.
The car drove out of the villa area quickly, and Steve found a spacious place to park, "Ms. Louis, how about here to get you off?"
Lumma nodded, opened the door and got out of the car, and waved to them, "Goodbye, Mr. Hills! Goodbye, Mr. Cohan!"
Adam pressed the button to open the window, and the window slowly fell, "Deal with the things in
the trunk of the car for me."
"Okay." Lumma was so drunk that her pace was a little unsteady, but she had to do what the
president ordered, so she staggered to the back of the car and opened the trunk.
The trunk was full of well-packaged gifts, some of which were packaged by herself, and they were gifts from the president to his wife a few days ago.
The gifts that should have been sent out earlier were now lying in the trunk, no less.
Lumma went back to Adam's window, "Mr. Hills, aren't these all gifts for your wife? Why didn't you send them out?"
Adam lit a cigarette and took a puff, "I won't need it in the future, throw away these things, sell them or use them by yourself, you can dispose of them as you like."
Lumma felt inexplicably upset when she heard that, "Mr Hills, what's the matter with you and
wife? You love her so much, so don't be arrogant.
your
When he mentioned his wife before, his eyes were gentle and firm But in just a week or two, the Look in his eyes when he mentioned his wife changed, cold with a touch of dislike Something must have happened.
Adam suddenly lowered his voice, "Move the things away, and don't mention her in front of me in
the future
Adam didn't want to say anything, and Lumma didn't dare to ask further questions.
Lumma returned to the back of the car and began to move things. Just as she bent down, her head felt dizzy and her stomach throbbed violently.
Lumma tried her best to hold back. If she wanted to vomit, she would have to wait until Adam left. As his special assistant, she couldn't behave so disgustingly in front of him.
She took a deep breath, and when she was about to make a move, Steve came, “I'll do it."
Steve was tall and strong, and he moved the stuff of the trunk to the ground in a few times.
Lumma was very grateful, "Mr. Cohan, thank you!"
Steve glanced at her expressionlessly, turned back to his cab and was about to start the car.
Adam said, "Leave later, I'll smoke another cigarette."
He could smoke while the car was driving. Steve didn't understand why Adam stopped to smoke, but he obeyed.
Adam took out a cigarette and lit it, he didn't smoke it, but put his hand on the car window, and lightly moved it...
Since she didn't leave, Lumma couldn't pretend she didn't see him, and she walked over enduring the nausea in her stomach, "Mr. Hills, is there anything else?"
Adam looked up at her, "The person who picked you up hasn't arrived yet?"
Lumma replied, "There's a traffic jam here today. He's been stuck in the traffic jam for a while, and
he's almost there."
Just as they were talking, Lumma saw an ordinary car coming from the opposite lane, her eyes lit
up, "Mr. Hills, the person who picked me up is here, goodbye!"
After finishing speaking, she happily walked towards the cheap car, her soft voice was especially clear on the quiet street at night, "Harry, I'm here
Adam slightly raised his eyes to look at the cab of the cheap car. It was too dark at night, and he couldn't see what the man driving looked like
He broke off the cigarette in his hand and told Steve, "Drive."
Steve started the car, drove a few meters away, and saw the man who came to pick up Lumma from the rearview mirror. The man turned his back to this side, covering Lumma's body, as if he was hugging her. Steve said, "Mr. Hills, the relationship between Ms. Louis and her husband is really good."
Adam closed his eyes and didn't answer, but every word Steve said fell into his ears.
It seemed that Lumma's soft voice when she was talking to her husband just now was ringing in Adam's ears again, which was completely different from her businesslike tone when she was talking to him.
"Ha..."He sneered.
Steve didn't know why, so he took a sneak peek at him from the rearview mirror of the car. Adam's expression was calm, and couldn't see anything unusual.
On Lumma's side, Harry patted her back lightly, "You idiot, throw up as you want, it'll be fine if yo
spit it out."
Lumma was so dizzy that she couldn't stand still, so she could only rely on Harry, "Has my yet?"
boss le
"Yes." Harry poked her forehead angrily, "You are such a silly girl, look what are you going to do t get that double salary."
"It's because money can make me feel safe." Lumma looked at him and smiled, with tears welling up inexplicably.
