Married to the Boss: A Love in Disguise Chapter 18

Both parties were satisfied with the price, and it was easy to discuss other project details. The two parties quickly signed the contract, and they would wait for the company to make the payment.

When they received the money, the three of them would have no problem buying apartments on the mortgage in Red Pine City.

After making the deal, there was one day left. The three of them had a feast and enjoyed themselves in Coastal City the whole day. They returned to Red Pine City at ten o’clock on Sunday night.

Ruby and Harry were not sure if Lumma was fine. Since the incident, she had learned to hide her emotions.

“What are you doing? Don’t worry about me. I’m fine.” Lumma punched each of them and said, “Let’s go and see the apartments after we receive the copyright money. Let’s buy apartments in the same neighborhood and stay close to each other.”

Harry and Ruby had the same thought. “Yes. We’ll work hard to make money and apartments. We’ll

settle down in Red Pine City and be real citizens here.”

“Go to bed.” Lumma yawned “It’s getting late. I have to go to the company early tomorrow

morning.”

Harry and Ruby said, “Good night.”

Early the next morning, when Lumma just got out of bed, her personal cell phone buzzed on the bedside table. After learning the lesson last week, Lumma turned her private cell phone to vibrating

mode.

She fumbled for the phone in a daze, but she didn’t forget the polite words. “Hello, hello!”

An unfamiliar male voice came from the phone, “Ms. Louis, I am Mr. Bergman’s lawyer. My name is Toby Mayers.”

Her husband who had disappeared for over a year suddenly contacted her two days ago and asked for a divorce, and his lawyer called her today. Did anything happen to him?

Could it be that he was in debt and had no money to pay it back? Could it be the relevant parties found out that she was married to him and knew that she was rich, so they wanted her to pay off the debts for him?

Frightened by this possibility, Lumma hugged her phone tightly, fearing that someone would

snatch her phone and transfer her money away. “I don’t have any money, so don’t look for me.”

Toby paused and said “I’m not asking you for money. I call to remind you that the marriage between you and Mr. Bergman exists in name only. If this continues, it’s bad for both of you. Come to Cocos Dining at eight o’clock tonight, and we will have a good talk.”

As long as she wouldn’t be asked to pay off the debts for her nominal husband, Lumma didn’t mind meeting them. She nodded and said, “Okay, see you at eight o’clock tonight.”

Toby hung up the phone and called Adam. “Mr. Hills, I have contacted your wife and made an appointment to meet at eight o’clock tonight. Would you like to go?”

“Go to meet her? Then why do I need you as a lawyer?” Adam didn’t want to see the woman who betrayed him again. He was afraid that the sight of her would soil his eyes.

Adam hung up the phone and glanced at his watch, texting Lumma and Leonard. “You don’t need to go to the company. Go to the airport and fly west with me.”

Weschester project was a poverty alleviation project initiated by the government.

The Hills Group made investments to gain a better reputation instead of earning money.

In recent years, the Internet had developed quickly. Anyone or any company would get into a crisis online if careless. Many companies, especially the leading companies paid more attention to this

aspect.

An important official was going to inspect the project. The Hills Group had assigned someone to greet the official, but that person suddenly got sick.

Adam would go to the opening ceremony of the scenic spot next month. Since he had no important things to do for the moment, he decided to go there in advance and take a look.

Unprepared, Lumma and Leonard followed Adam and flew to the west by plane.

They took a three-hour flight to a large city in the west and then flew for another hour to a small airport in the plateau area.

It was October, the plateau area was beautiful, but it was very cold. Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

Coupled with the high altitude, Lumma felt dizzy shortly after getting off the plane.

Adam glanced at her and said, “Have you never been to the plateau area before?”
