Married to the Boss: A Love in Disguise Chapter 89
Not only did Luma have to manage Adam’s drink, but she also had to manage the food
he brought to his mouth. Lumma wouldn’t let anyone bring the food he didn’t like to
him.
During the meal, Lumma was busy taking care of Adam. By the time she started eating,
her food was cold, and her stomach was protesting.
Adam had gotten used to Lumma, his assistant, handling everything for him, and he
saw no problem with her taking care of him tonight.
Louisa was so angry that she squeezed Callum’s arm. It was all Adam’s fault. Louisa had
invited her friends to dinner, and now it had turned into this mess.
Callum grabbed her hand. “After dinner, what do you all want to do?”
Adam replied, “Whatever.”
Louisa looked at Lumma. “Lumma, what do you want to do?”
“I don’t want to play…” Lumma started to speak, but then she felt nauseous, and she
rushed to the restroom.
Adam’s gaze followed her as a flash of worry crossed his eyes beneath the silver wire
glasses…
Seeing this, Louisa hurried to catch up with her. “Lumma, what’s wrong?”
Lumma replied, “I feel a bit nauseous, but nothing comes out.”
Louisa asked, “Are you pregnant?”
Adam lit a cigarette, took a puff, extinguished it in the ashtray, picked up his coat, and said, “I’m leaving.”
Callum taunted him. “Can’t handle the news of her pregnancy?”
Adam ignored him and left.
As he walked out of the restaurant, a cool breeze hit him in the face.
Red Pine City wasn’t that cold even on the coldest days of winter, but today Adam felt particularly cold as if a chill had settled in his heart.
This feeling came suddenly and inexplicably.
Undeniably, when he heard Lamma was pregnant, all kinds of scary thoughts flashed through his mind.
Callum was just like him, and Adam could think of the same means as Callum.
But the reason told him that the girl next to him named Lumma was only his assistant, just his assistant.
She was married, she had her own man, and she had her own family.
He and she were now just an employer-employee relationship and would always be just an employer-employee relationship. There would never be any other relationship.
