Married to the Boss: A Love in Disguise Chapter 173
After a long while, George spoke slowly, “I went against everyone in my family, took on huge pressure and risk, and
spent money to help the Wilson family stand back up I solved all of Keeley’s problems, so why does she still hate me
so much?”
Adam replied calmly, “How should I know?”
George felt uneasy with Adam’s response. “Can’t you analyze it for me? Why would she rather die
than stay with me?”
Adam replied, “You know best what you did to her.”
George’s tall figure shook slightly at these words. Yes, he knew better than anyone what he did to
Keeley.
He put out his cigarette and lit another. “Keeley and I have known each other for exactly ten years.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWe first met when she was fourteen. When she moved into my house at eighteen, I thought she
couldn’t live without me. But when she got into trouble, I realized it was me who couldn’t live
without her.”
Adam listened silently. He had no experience with matters of love and relationships, so he couldn’t
offer any advice.
George didn’t know who else to turn to besides Adam. “Adam, tell me, what should I do to bring her
back to me?”
This question really stumped Adam.
If Adam was asked how to make money, he could give you a thousand and one ways.
But when it came to winning back his wife, he faced a difficult problem.
He lit up a cigarette as well. “Lumma would rather take out a loan to buy a house and pay off the mortgage with
most of her monthly salary than accept the house I offered her. I tried my best today, but still couldn’t get her to
agree to have a meal with me.”
Mentioning Lumma, George seemed to see a glimmer of hope again. “Why don’t you call Lumma over and have
her help me ask Keeley what she thinks?
Adam gåve him a fierce look. “Don’t think about using Lumma.”
Bang bang bang!
An urgent knocking interrupted the peace in the room.
Adam frowned at the sound of the banging instead of using the doorbell.
But when he saw Lumma at the door through the monitor, his annoyance disappeared instantly.
He got up immediately to open the door…
Get Borus
As the door opened, Lumma said, “Mr. Hills,” but stopped herself from saying anything else when
she saw the other man in the room.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmGeorge was here?
How did he get here?
Did he know that Keeley had escaped?
Was he going to catch her again?
Adam noticed Lumma’s hands slightly trembling by her side and asked, “What’s wrong?”
“Nothing,” Lumma replied, turning to leave, but Adam grabbed her. “Lumma, tell me what
happened.”
Lumma bit her lip tightly and unconsciously glanced at George inside the room. Adam immediately
understood her concern.
He walked out of the room and slammed the door shut, blocking George outside. “Do you want to
tell me about Keeley?” he asked.
Still worried that George might be listening in, Lumma suggested, “Mr. Hills, could you please come upstairs with
me?”
“Okay,” Adam agreed and followed Lumma to the 26th floor. Once inside the room, Lumma quickly closed and
locked the door.
