Adam was the president of the Hills Group. Lumma didn’t dare to ask Adam to wash the dishes, even if Adam wanted to. “Mr. Hills, I will do the dishes. How can you do that?”
Adam insisted, “I’ll do the dishes. You should go to bed now.”
Lumma didn’t dare to agree, “No, Mr. Hills…”
Adam had to order Lumma with the identity of the boss. “Do whatever 1 ask you to do. Don’t always refute me.”
“No… well…” Adam insisted on doing the dishes. Lumma had to obey him, as long as he wouldn’t
blame her for this.
Adam put away the dishes and went into the kitchen. Lumma also came to the kitchen. Definitely, she couldn’t really go to bed and let the boss work in the kitchen.
Perhaps a capable person like Adam was able to do anything well. He had never done such a thing, so he washed the dishes in the right way.
Adam looked back at Lumma with displeasure. “What are you doing here? It’s late. Go upstairs and sleep.”
“Yes.” Lumma was nervous. Adam seemed to be considerate, but Lumma thought he had changed a way to torture her.
Lumma went upstairs. She had to pass by Leonard’s room when she went back to her room.
Leonard had been observing the situation through the crack of the door. When he saw Lama passing by, he quickly opened the door and said, “Lumma, come here. I have something to talk to you.”
Lumma walked to Leonard and asked, “Mr. Davies, what’s up?”
Leonard asked, “Do you think Mr. Hills is very strange today?”
Lumma nodded affirmatively, “Yes, he is too gentle to me today, which makes me feel creepy.”
Leonard said, “He is gentle to you and strict with me. Did I do something wrong and offend him?”
Lumma disagreed, “Don’t you think his abnormal tenderness is more frightening?”
Leonard thought for a while and imagined the scene that the boss was so gentle to him…
