Married to the Boss: A Love in Disguise Chapter 14
[Lumma looks innocent, but her private life is so messy.]
[I don’t know how many people she has slept with, maybe she hooked up with someone, so she had the opportunity to be transferred to the headquarters.1
“The president’s special assistant can be regarded as the face of our company, such a person can not stay.] This is from NôvelDrama.Org.
This scene was almost the same as the one a few years ago.
These guys wanted to ruin a hard working and beautiful girl and it was easy.
As long as the rumors about the girl’s private life were indecent and humiliated her as a slut, then everyone would come to accuse and insult her.
For a moment, Lumma seemed to see a group of people blocking her at home again.
Someone pulled her hair and hit her. Someone pointed at her nose and kept abusing her.
‘Look at your face, which looks like a slut. You did such shameless things at a young age.
“Let her fuck off far away, and never come back.”
She kept explaining that the truth was not what they said, but no one believed in her; they only believed what they wanted to believe.
Grandma went to the countryside to do students’ home visits that day, and the only person she
could ask for help was her uncle.
She cast him a begging look, and instead of helping her, her uncle slapped her hard on the face, “Our Louis family is not as shameless as you. If your father knows that you have done such shameless things, he has to jump out of the coffin and kill you!”
“Lumma, are these things true?”
Leonard’s voice pulled Lumma out of the painful memories.
He had only worked with Lumma for more than a month, and he didn’t know much about Lumma
yet, so he maintained a neutral attitude toward today’s matter.
Lumma was already very grateful that Leonard didn’t decide that she was a profligate woman just by reading the post, and he even came to ask her.
Lumma tried her best to smile, “Is Mr. Hills here?”
Leonard replied, “Just arrived.”
Lumma rubbed her cold hands, picked up the computer, and came to Adam’s office.
He stood by the floor to ceiling windows smoking a cigarette with his back to the office door, and Lumma couldn’t see his expression, only his tall and straight back
She gently placed the laptop on his desk, “Mr. Hills, someone In the company spread rumors about my private life I want to take two minutes to explain.”
Adam said without turning his head, “I’m not interested in knowing about your private life, but if your affairs may affect the image of Hills Group, then I’m sorry, Hills Group can’t let you stay.”
Lumma’s body, which had been warmer just now, seemed to have fallen into the ice cave in an instant because of his words, and her scalp was numb from the cold, “Mr. Hills, please listen to my explanation and…”
then
Before she could finish speaking, Adam interrupted her ruthlessly, “If you say it’s a rumor, show evidence to prove it. I’ll give you two hours to settle the matter, otherwise, how can you make me believe in your ability?”
What Lumma wanted was his words, “Thank you Mr. Hills!”
Adam was right; if she couldn’t handle her personal affairs well, how could she be qualified for the president’s special assistant position?
The purpose
of her coming to him was to take the initiative to move first and not let him believe the
rumors on the post.
Otherwise, not only would she lose her job, but she would also be left with another stain.
She was still young back then, and she was helpless under other’s slander and insult.
Now, she could no longer be that Lumma whom anyone could step on.
After leaving the president’s office, Lumma immediately went to the company’s Information Security Department, asking the security department staff to find out the anonymous poster as
soon as possible.
Since she was promoted to the president’s special assistant, the staff in the Information Security Department have been very polite to her, but today they procrastinated and found reasons for refusing to do things for her.
Fortunately, Leonard called and asked them to cooperate with her.
In just a few minutes after Leonard’s phone call, the staff of the Information Security Department got the list of anonymous posters.
The person who posted was not John as tumma guessed, but Lumma was sure that John had something to do with it
After getting the list, Lumma immediately called the police.
The police also dealt with it very quickly, and found the residence of the person who posted it in less
than half an hour
The person immediately confessed that the person behind him was John, and then the police found many photos from John’s computer that secretly took of Lumma.
When the police arrived at the company to arrest John, Lumma raised her hand and looked at her watch. It had been exactly two hours, and she was greatly relieved.
Immediately, she walked towards John heroically in high heels, raised her hand, and slapped him hard on the face in front of the policeman.
After that, Lumma rubbed her sore hand under the amazed gaze of the crowd, and said with a half- laugh, “Can’t you men bully a woman by any means other than slut-shaming by starting pornographic rumors?”
“Lumma, our matter is not over yet.” John gritted his teeth in hatred, but he had no strength to resist and was dragged away.
Lumma dialed the number of the person in charge of the personnel department in front of everyone, “Notify everyone in the company that anyone who tries to slander his colleagues will
never be hired by the Hills Group.”
After finishing speaking, Lumma hung up the phone regardless of whether the other party heard
clearly.
She scanned the more than 20 people in the president’s office again, “You have all seen what happened today. I can get John, who spread the rumors, out of the Hills Group, then I can also get other people who did wrong out, because the one who stood behind me is Mr. Hills.”
“Mr. Hills!”
Everyone looked behind her, and called “Mr. Hills” one after another.
Lumma turned her head and saw that Adam was standing behind her, exactly proving what she
said, “The one who stood behind me is Mr. Hills.”
”
Her body froze lightly, and she tried to make herself look casual, “Mr. Hills!”
Adam’s gaze under the silver-framed glasses swept past her, and he walked away without saying anything.
Leonard who was following behind him said, “Lumma, follow up.’
umma immediately followed and heard Leonard saying, “It’s lunchtime, let’s go to the cafeteria.”
Adam was very picky about food, and what he ate usually was prepared by a special person. All the vegetables, fruits, and meat that he ate were supplied by the Hills family’s farm, and he rarely ate
food outside.
Lumma had been with him for a month, and it was also the first time he saw him come to the company cafeteria for lunch.
It’s not time to have lunch yet, and there are no other employees in the cafeteria.
Lumma wanted to choose a seat by the window, but Adam took the most conspicuous seat in the middle first, so she could only give up her choice to sit with him.
Although it was only a cafeteria for company employees, its specifications were much better than many leading restaurants outside. Not only could you choose several major cuisines from your country, but also dishes from other countries. You could almost eat whatever you want.
There were too many choices. When Lumma was struggling with what to eat, Adam’s special chef brought people to serve the dishes and set up a table full of sumptuous delicacies.
Leonard was so greedy for the food that he almost drooled, “We are lucky today.”
Lumma was still out of state, “I’m going to wash my face.”
She came to the bathroom, scooped up a handful of cold water and patted it on her face, then smiled
at the mirror. Until the person in the mirror showed a standard smile, she was satisfied.
When she went out, she met Leonard at the bathroom door, “Thank you, Leonard!”
Leonard asked, “What are you thanking me for?”
Lumma replied, “If you hadn’t made that phone call, the Information Security Department might
not have listened to me.”
Not long after Lumma was promoted to special assistant, she was still in the probationary period,
and a scandal broke out. Many people thought that Adam’s character of not being able to tolerate
sand in his eyes would definitely fire her, so no one would listen to her even if she were the
president’s special assistant.
“Mr. Hills asked me to make that phone call If you want to thank someone, go thank him.”
Speaking of which, Leonard was very ashamed Actually, he believed the post at that time, so he never thought of helping Lumma
