Married to the Boss: A Love in Disguise Chapter 174
“Mr. Hills, can I trust you?” Lumina didn’t know what exactly Keeley had gone through, but she knew for sure that if
Keeley was caught by George, she wouldn’t survive.
Adam raised his hand, ruffled her hair, and replied firmly, “Yes!”
Now that Adam had given his word, Lumma felt she could trust him. “Keeley left without her
phone, and I’m very worried about her. Can you help us get her to where she wants to go and ensure that George
won’t find her?”
Lumma knew that this request was demanding and would require a lot of time and money.
But Adam was the only person who could stand up against George’s influence and help Keeley escape from his
control.
“Don’t worry, no matter how much it costs, I’ll pay for it…” Before Lumma could finish her sentence, Adam
immediately made a call in front of her. “Arrange for someone to follow Keeley and

Hearing this, Lumma felt relieved instantly. “Mr. Hills, thank you!”
He reached out and gently supported her shoulder, his voice gentle. “Lumma, you don’t have to thank me.
Whatever you want to do in the future, you can tell me. As long as I can do it, I will try my
best to do it well.”
The words he spoke made Lumma’s recently relieved worries return. She didn’t want to hold onto the confusion, so
she decided to be frank. “Mr. Hills, it’s just the two of us here now, and your wife
can’t hear us. You don’t have to pretend anymore.”
Adam raised an eyebrow. “Hmm?”
Lumma continued, “I’m sorry for misunderstanding your intentions today. I thought you were hitting on me, but my
friend helped me analyze the situation, and I realized you were using me to provoke your wife. Although my own
marriage is also a mess, I have some thoughts I’d like to share with you.
you. Would you like to hear them?”
Adam was very willing to listen. “Sure, go ahead.”
Lumma said, “I believe honesty and communication are the most important things in a marriage. If you love your
wife, you should communicate with her honestly and not use other women to provoke her. I personally don’t think
that’s a wise move. Relationships cannot withstand testing.”
Adam replied, “I didn’t use you to provoke anyone, and everything I said to you was sincere.”
Lumma asked, “Do you really not want to…”
“I didn’t want to hit on you,” he clarified. He didn’t want to pursue her, but as a husband, he felt
responsible for sharing his wife’s worries.
“Okay, good,” Lumma patted her chest and breathed a sigh of relief. She then added, “If you don’t have any
intentions that can be easily misinterpreted in the future, please try to avoid saying them. It’s not fair to your wife.”
Lumma was a straightforward and candid person in her personal life, often speaking her mind. without much tact.
This was in contrast to her serious and diligent personality at work.
Adam was grateful that he saw Lumma’s strengths and that his wife was her. “My wife is the best person in the
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmworld. It’s my privilege to be married to her, and I will never let her down in this lifetime. You too, work hard and
don’t overthink things.”
“Yes.”
“Don’t worry about Keeley. I’ll let you know if there’s any progress.”
“Thank you, Mr. Hills!”
“You go
rest early. I’m going downstairs,” he said, turning and leaving.
As soon as he stepped outside, he saw Steve standing like a statue at the door. “Mr. Hills, the staff
on Keeley’s side has been arranged,” Steve reported.
Adam nodded. “Make sure she’s safe and don’t let George know her whereabouts.”
“Yes, sir,” Steve replied, but instead of immediately withdrawing, he hesitated to ask a question.
Adam asked, “What’s up?”
Steve was afraid of making Adam angry, but he decided to speak up. “Mr. Hills, is there something wrong with
Lumma? Why did you take an interest in your friend’s wife?”
Adam glanced at him. “What nonsense is going through your head?”
Steve remained silent.
