Chapter 361
Adam walked fast. Lumma used to trot to keep up with him. But now she was taking notes. She couldn’t care about both sides and bumped into a passer-by.
The person who collided with Lumma was a tall and strong man. Lumma bumped into his chest. Her nose hurt so badly that it seemed to be displaced.
“I’m sorry! Sorry!” Lumma held her nose and apologized. But the man refused to let her go. He pointed at her nose and cursed, still not relieved, and raised his hand to slap Lumma.
Lumma instinctively wanted to hide behind. But unexpectedly, the snowed ground was wet and slippery, she lost her footing. And the man was about to hit her face.
Adam grasped his hand firmly. Then, he pushed the man to the ground and fell to the ground. The man was still speaking something that Lumma could not understand.
Lumma couldn’t hear what Adam said. But judging from Adam’s sharp eyes and the gradually pale face of the strange man, they were definitely not friendly words.
The man got up from the ground and ran, looking back while running, as if there was a beast chasing behind him.
Adam looked at Lumma, his eyes were sharp as if he could see through her inside and out.
Lumma rubbed her sore nose. “Mr. Hills, thank you!”
Adam still didn’t say a word, turned around, and left.
Lumma continued to follow him.
After arriving at the office, Lumma prepared the materials and went to prepare the coffee for Adam as usual.
Leonard followed. “Lumma, do you and Mr. Hills argue again?”
Lumma said, “No.”
For Lumma, there was indeed no conflict between her and Adam. It was just that they had different social statuses and identities, and had different views on certain things.
