Married to the Boss: A Love in Disguise Chapter 55
Lumma said goodnight to Adam and headed for her room.
When she was several inches away from the wooden building, she heard a woman’s soft
sobbing.
In the deep mountains, in the middle of the night, the wind blew the rustle of leaves, accompanied by the cry of a woman… They were what exactly constituted a horror film.
Lumma freaked out and got goosebumps. She was about to run away. But out of curiosity, she glanced at the source of the sound.
Not far away, a weeping woman sat under a tree, and the faint light shone on her through the branches.
Lumma recognized her. It was George’s wife, Keeley. She was a beauty with a soft and sweet sound and got a lovely smile, which would raise people’s desire to protect her.
Why was she crying outside in the middle of the night? Where was George? Didn’t he take care of her?
“Give the waterworks a rest. Tears are the most useless thing.” George’s deep voice
came from the darkness.
He was right next to the tree trunk. Lumma didn’t see him at first sight because of the
dim light.
The tone he spoke to Keeley was more indifferent than a stranger’s. He was completely different from one who doted on Keeley during the day.
Keeley wiped away her tears and said as if mustering up her courage, “George, let’s get
a divorce!”
“Divorce?” George sneered, pinched Keeley’s chin, and raised her head to make her look at him. “Keeley, do you think you can end our marriage? From the moment you tried all means to step through the door of the Marple family, you’re not leaving the family even if you die.”
“What a domineering and powerful man!”
Lumma thought to herself silently and sneaked away.
She was envious to see how sweet George and Keeley were together in the afternoon. She was on Unexpectedly, they were splitting up in private
Nowadays, more and more marriages were ending in divorce. Why did so many people want to get married?
Lumma didn’t sleep well that night. It was almost noon when she woke up, and she even got dark circles under her ey
One of the reasons was that Callum and Louisa next door were too energetic. The two didn’t finish doing it until midnight, which seriously affected her sleep.
However, Callum, one of the culprits, was still in high spirits. He smiled and joked, “Ms. Louis, what’s the matter with your dark circles?”
Lumma was speechless.From NôvelDrama.Org.
What was the matter? Didn’t he get any idea of it?
Callum looked at Adam and said, “Adam, I thought you could say no to a woman.
Adam didn’t want to talk to him. “You’d better keep your mouth shut,” said Adam.
Callum raised his hand as a sign of surrender, “All right. I’ll stop. But you were so tired. last night. Why didn’t you let Ms. Louis sleep a little longer? It’s still early.”
His implication was too obvious. If Lumma kept silent, others would talk about it and
get the wrong idea. “Mr. Park, I’m just Mr. Hills’s assistant. Please mind your tongue.”
Unexpectedly, Adam spoke almost at the same time as her. His voice was deep, powerful, and serious. “Callum, don’t make such jokes about ladies.”
“You two are not what I think?” Callum didn’t believe there was nothing between Adam ad Lumma. Even if nothing had happened now, something would definitely happen in
the future.
Having known Adam for so many years, Callum had never seen Adam’s eyes stay on any woman for more than three seconds.
But Adam looked at Lumma with tenderness and affection. Maybe Adam hadn’t realized it. After all, he needed more time to figure out love.
It would only be a joke if both parties found it funny. So Callum apologized, “Ms. Louis,
I’m sorry!”
Lumma didn’t want to talk to him, no matter whether he was a big shot.
Louisa took Lumma aside and said apologetically, “Lumma, I apologize to you on behalf of Callum. He usually doesn’t joke with people he isn’t familiar with. Because Mr. Hills brought you here, he thinks that you two are a couple. That’s why he joked about that.”
“Mrs. Park, it’s okay.” Lumma knew very well what kind of the party was. Her coming was a mistake, and no one else was to blame.
If Lumma had known that Adam would bring her to such a friend gathering, she would have preferred not to take the triple salary.
