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.
