Married to the Boss: A Love in Disguise Chapter 144
“Mr. Marple, Mr. Hills, you should have important things to talk about, so we won’t disturb you.” Lumma felt uncomfortable just thinking about being in the hot spring pool with Adam, especially when she saw him naked good figure.
Adam lay casually by the hot spring pool, with his arms outstretched, revealing his strong and beautiful muscle lines as if a condescending king was embracing his country.
It was also like he was welcoming his sweetheart with open arms….
Lumma just glanced at him accidentally, and his beautiful muscle lines seemed to be engraved in
her mind, lingering.
She sighed silently in her heart. How much self-discipline was required to get such beautiful
muscles as he was so busy with work?
“We don’t have anything important to talk about,” Adam said and slightly raised his eyes to look at
Lumma. Seeing her shivering on the bank wrapped in a nightgown and unwilling to get into the pool, he was suddenly annoyed. “Come down.”
His voice was low and majestic, so Lumma was startled in fright. Her body reacted faster than her mind. She quickly took off her nightgown, plunged into the hot spring pool, and walked to the
corner far t hest from him.
The water in the hot spring pool was very warm, which instantly warmed her body, but she couldn’t
cheer up at all.
She felt that the hot spring was no longer enjoyable, and the snow scene was not beautiful. In short, her good mood today was ruined at this moment.
She could finally spare time to come here to relax with her friends. But unluckily, she came across Adam, her boss. What was worse, Adam invited her to be in the same hot spring pool. She thought all wage earners could understand her feelings.
It would be so comfortable and enjoyable if she could be in the hot spring pool alone. With Adam around, she felt like a fish out of water.
Lumma felt that she was working overtime in another way.
Adam was speechless seeing her behavior.

During work hours, she acted normally. But after hours, she avoided him as if he was dangerous. Was he a man-eating monster?
George looked at Keeley, “Darling, come over.”
Normally, Keeley would definitely walk towards him obediently, but today, she didn’t want to do as he wished.
If he hadn’t brought his friends to make trouble, she and her other three friends wouldn’t be as unhappy as they were now.
Keeley got into the pool and sat with Lumma in the corner far thest from George and Adam. “Lumma, I’m sorry! I didn’t expect to ruin our get-together today.”
“It’s okay. You didn’t mean it.” Lumma heard about Keeley’s things and saw the loneliness in Keeley’s eyes. She wanted to help Keeley. “Keeley, do you want to hear a story?”
Keeley nodded. “Of course.”
Lumma said, “There was a girl who had no mother since she was a child, and her father passed away later. Everyone said she was a jinx, and her mother and her father were dead because of her. She also believed it was true, thinking that she was an ominous person, and every day she felt that she did deserve to live. Until one day, the girl’s grandmother firmly told the girl that it was not her fault and that she should live for herself and ignore what other people say, not carrying burdens that don’t belong to her.” Content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
She should live for herself?
Keeley silently repeated these words, which were something she longed for the most.
These words were very simple to say, but it was more difficult for her than climbing to the sky.
She smiled. “Lumma, I’m glad to have you as my
friend.”
Lumma said, “You too.”
Lumma and Keeley were whispering, completely ignoring George and Adam over there.
Adam glared at George, feeling unhappy. “I want to be alone with my wife for a while. Take your
wife and leave first.”
George was speechless. “Adam, I don’t expect you to adopt Callum’s method. But you at least should do something as Jeff did. You have to ask me for help to chat with your wife alone. Why don’t you let me chase her on your behalf?”
Adam said, “I’ll give you five seconds.”
