Married to the Boss: A Love in Disguise Chapter 281
Lumma lowered her head and muttered, “I remember everything you said. I know the Hills Group would stand for
me, but how could I trouble you with such a small matter like being hit on by someone else?”
Adam was her boss, not her husband. If she went to him when someone bothered her, what if he said, “What does
it have to do with me?” How should she respond?
As Lumma whispered, Adam’s entire face softened, and his voice became low and gentle. “Lumma, no matter what
happens at work or in life, you can come to me for help.”
Adam made such a promise, but Lumma didn’t dare to take it seriously.
Their relationship was between a superior and a subordinate. Lumma couldn’t enjoy his kindness just because she
had the same name as his wife.

own, and after meeting you, I should still be able to solve them myself.”
Adam was annoyed again. “If you don’t come to me, you can go to Lucas.”
As long as Lumma didn’t know that Adam was her husband, she wouldn’t talk to him about the trivial things
happening in her life, let alone think of him as the first person to turn to for help.
Lumma asked, “Mr. Hills, do you have a good relationship with Lucas?”
Adam didn’t answer but asked. “Why do you ask?”
Lumma said, “I think the reason why you take special care of me is that I have the same name as your wife, and
Lucas entrusted you to take care of me. Since you value Lucas’ words so much, I feel you and Lucas must have a
good relationship.”
Adam said, “We grew up together.”
Lucas was the same person as Adam. Of course, they grew up together.
“Did Lucas grow up with you too?” Lumma knew of Adam’s childhood friends like Simon and Stewart and never
thought that the ordinary Lucas also grew up with him. This made it easier to understand why Adam valued Lucas’
request so much.
Adamn said, “Not only did we grow up together, but we also have a good relationship. So if you need any help, you
can tell me.”
Lumma smiled awkwardly and didn’t say anything else.
This whole thing boiled down to Lucas having no sense of boundary in dealing with people. He entrusted his wife to
a male friend to take care of, and this friend was rich and handsome. Wasn’t he worried his wife would fall in love
with his friend?
Lumma didn’t know if Lucas was too confident or just trusting of his friend.

“I don’t want you to tell Lucas about what happened today,” Lumma replied.
Adam smiled and asked, “What’s wrong? Now you are going to be afraid he’ll know?”
“I just don’t want to make him worry,” Lumma said.
Adam said, “He should already know.”
Lumma was speechless.
Lumma didn’t expect Adam as the president of the Hills Group, would actually spread the word so quickly.
Lumma was surprised Adam would tell others quickly what had just happened to her.
Who said that men didn’t like to gossip?
But soon, Lumma realized that she had been deceived by Adam. There was no network on the plane, so Adam
couldn’t send a message to Lucas even if he wanted to.
Lumma gave him a glance.
Adam noticed her little movement. “If you don’t want me to tell him, don’t do such a thing again.”
Lumma could only say, “Yes.”
After two hours of flying time, the plane safely landed at Coastal City International Airport.
