Married to the Boss: A Love in Disguise Chapter 301
Lumma nodded respectfully. “Yes. I’ll handle the handover after the meal.”
Adam hadn’t seen Lumma for a few days. He wanted to talk to her more, but every word Lumma said to him was
full of respect, which really made Adam not know how to open the conversation.
Adam thought for a while, and then said, “Your French is not good. If you encounter any trouble at work, remember
to tell me.”
“Okay.” Lumma didn’t know much French, but her English was good, and most of the people who worked with her
could also speak English, so her work here was going smoothly.
Adam added. “Christmas is coming soon, we may not be able to return home for the holiday. You have to be
mentally prepared.”
Lumma said, “Mr. Hills, don’t worry about me. Before choosing this job, I made all the preparations.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtLeonard Davies was watching and listening to them talking.
He didn’t know why he had always had an illusion recently that when he was with Adam and Lumma, he was like
the third wheel, and he could hardly get a word in edgewise.
Leonard had been with Adam for more than ten years, and Lumma had only been with Adam for less than a year.
Leonard didn’t understand why it seemed that Mr. Hills and Lumma were closer.
Leonard felt that this could not go on like this. Lumma would very likely take his place in Mr. Hills’ heart if it went on
like this. Then he would be a dispensable existence to Mr. Hills.
In order to change the status quo, Leonard decided to chat with them, but what they chatted was not about work,
and he couldn’t chime in.
So, he decided to bring the topic back to work. “Mr. Hills, the location of the new factory has been selected, and
three alternative locations have been chosen. After the meal, let’s go and have a look together in the afternoon.”
Adam replied coldly, “Don’t talk about work at mealtimes.”
Leonard’s face was speechless. Before, they were too busy with work to have time to eat. When they had
important tasks, they would take a few minutes at work to eat casually and work while eating.
“Since when is it stipulated that we can’t talk about work during meals?” Leonard thought.
But what else could Leonard say now that Mr. Hills had already said that?
The first time Leonard tried to get involved in the chat between Lumma and Adam, he failed even before he
started.
Then, he saw that Adam took the initiative to find a topic to chat with Lumma, and the conversation was still
awkward. “Is this your first time in Preivlille?”
Lumma nodded. “Yes.”
Adam added, “There are many interesting places in Preivlille and many delicious foods. When work ends, I can be
your tour guide and show you around.”
Adam said that he wanted to be Lumma’s tour guide!
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmLeonard was so shocked when he heard this, the president of the dignified. Hills Group actually said that he wanted
to be a tour guide as a director.
However, what Leonard didn’t expect was that Lumma rejected Mr. Hills without even thinking about it. “Mr. Hills, I
came to work in Preivlille with you. I just want to finish my work well, and I don’t think about going out to play.”
Leonard interjected, “We won’t be too busy next, and you can still go out to have fun when you have time. I have
been here many times with Mr. Hills, and the longest time I spent here was half a year. Lumma, if you are
embarrassed to trouble Mr. Hills, you can ask me to be your tour guide. Anyway, you are a beautiful girl, so try not
to go out alone, especially at night. There are still many robbers here, so be careful.”
Lumma said politely, “If I have time, I will ask Mr. Davies for help.”
While chatting, Leonard vaguely felt a chill, but he didn’t take it too seriously.
When the dishes are served, Leonard was particularly active. He first ladled the soup into a bowl for Adam and then
for Lumma. “Lumma, the weather in Preivlille is cold and humid. You should drink a bowl of soup first to warm
yourself up.”
Lumma took the soup bowl with a smile. “Thank you, Mr. Davies!”
