Married to the Boss: A Love in Disguise novel Chapter 379

Chapter 379

Lumma thought she must have misheard and rubbed her eyes. “Mr. Hills, what did you say?”

Adam replied in a deep voice, “You prepared a dish for each person according to their preferences, so why don’t I have one?”

His voice was still low and magnetic, pleasant to listen to, but Lumma sensed

a hint of resentment in his tone.

“They are all yours, the ones that no one claimed,” Lumma knew Adam was picky and not easy to please, so she had prepared several dishes specifically

for him.

However, Adam interpreted her words as implying that he only deserved the dishes that others didn’t want.

“So, I’m only worthy of the leftovers?” Adam questioned. Lumma could put

her heart into caring for everyone and show concern for Lucas, so why

couldn’t she be a little kinder to him?

What made him any less deserving than Leonard?

Afraid that he might feel wronged, Lumma hurriedly explained, “Mr. Hills, I know you have a selective palate, and you prefer milder flavors. That’s why I

prepared this seafood salad, as well as this capon and these oysters,

specifically for you. Even the barbecue sauce, we all enjoy spicy food, but I made a special milder version just for you.”

She tried to please Adam cautiously, fearing that any misstep would upset him. He wasn’t angry, but she couldn’t help but feel like he was somehow hurt.

The color of Adam’s eyes, framed by silver wire glasses, instantly brightened. “Are these all specially prepared for me?”

“I wouldn’t dare deceive you,” Lumma pushed the capon dish towards him. “Mr. Hills, although it’s my first time making white-cut chicken, I think it

tastes alright. Would you do me the honor of trying it?”

Adam immediately cut a piece of capon and put it in his mouth. Honestly, it didn’t compare favorably to the ones he had eaten before, mainly because the chicken was too tough. However, because it was prepared by Lumma herself,

he felt like it was the best capon in the world.

“It tastes excellent,” he ate piece after piece, giving Lumma’s culinary skills

the utmost praise through his actions.
