Married to the Boss: A Love in Disguise Chapter 281
Lumma lowered her head and muttered, “I remember everything you said. I know the Hills Group would stand for me, but how could I trouble you with such a small matter like being hit on by someone else?”
Adam was her boss, not her husband. If she went to him when someone bothered her, what if he said, “What does it have to do with me?” How should she respond?
As Lumma whispered, Adam’s entire face softened, and his voice became low and gentle. “Lumma, no matter what happens at work or in life, you can come to me for help.”
Adam made such a promise, but Lumma didn’t dare to take it seriously.
Their relationship was between a superior and a subordinate. Lumma couldn’t enjoy his kindness just because she had the same name as his wife.
She quickly declined. “Mr. Hills, there are many trivial matters in life. Before I met you, I could solve them on my own, and after meeting you, I should still be able to solve them myself.”
Adam was annoyed again. “If you don’t come to me, you can go to Lucas.”
As long as Lumma didn’t know that Adam was her husband, she wouldn’t talk to him about the trivial things happening in her life, let alone think of him as the first person to turn to for help.
Lumma asked, “Mr. Hills, do you have a good relationship with Lucas?”
Adam didn’t answer but asked. “Why do you ask?”
Lumma said, “I think the reason why you take special care of me is that I have the same name as your wife, and Lucas entrusted you to take care of me. Since you value Lucas’ words so much, I feel you and Lucas must have a good relationship.”
Adam said, “We grew up together.”
Lucas was the same person as Adam. Of course, they grew up together.
“Did Lucas grow up with you too?” Lumma knew of Adam’s childhood friends like Simon and Stewart and never thought that the ordinary Lucas also grew up with him. This made it easier to understand why Adam valued Lucas’ request so much.
Adamn said, “Not only did we grow up together, but we also have a good relationship. So if you need any help, you can tell me.”
Lumma smiled awkwardly and didn’t say anything else.
