Married to the Boss: A Love in Disguise Chapter 238

“Callum is even worse than George,” thought Louisa, the only one who truly understood the extent. of Callum’s dreadfulness, while others could only catch a glimpse.

“Louisa, no matter what, you can’t put your body in danger…” Before Lumma could finish, she heard rustling and Callum’s sleepy voice over the phone.

“Darling, why aren’t you sleeping in the middle of the night? Who are you calling outside the room? Are you secretly keeping a young lover behind my back?”

Lumma didn’t intend to pry into the private matters of their marriage, so she promptly ended the call.

Though she was already exhausted, Lumma found herself wide awake after their lengthy conversation.

She rose from her bed, switched on her computer, and poured her heart into a two-thousand-word letter. Afterward, she created a Twitter account under a pen name to follow Louisa and privately sent her the letter.

Lumma was never fond of sharing her life on social media, which explained why she had never bothered to register for such accounts.

It was only for the sake of Louisa that she had made an exception.

Having sent the private message, Lumma logged out of the account, with no intentions of tending to it in the future.

With these tasks completed, the dawn was approaching, and Lumma finally surrendered to a deep slumber.

She slept through the afternoon, awakening in a haze after four o’clock.

Lumma seldom stayed up late, even when she was young and occasionally indulged in such behavior, it would take her several days to fully recover.

Finding ingredients in the refrigerator, Lumma decided to appease her hunger with some cornflakes. Content from NôvelDr(a)ma.Org.

The past few days in Red Pine City had been cold and damp due to the relentless rain. Determined to lift everyone’s spirits, Lumma resolved to prepare something appetizing. With half a chicken left in the refrigerator, she decided to roast it that evening and satiate everyone’s appetite.

Lumma meticulously cleaned the chicken before placing it in the oven, where it would remain for 40 to 50 minutes until the skin turned a golden hue.

Next, she peeled and shredded potatoes and cut bacon into thin strips, planning to create a potato and bacon salad for the night. She also diced tomatoes to make a savory tomato sauce.

A whole roasted chicken, a serving of potato and bacon salad, and a pot of tomato sauce would suffice for the dinner of three individuals.

Having prepared the dishes and toasted the bread, Lumma eagerly awaited Harry and the others to return home from work, ready to feast.

With these tasks fulfilled, Lumma gathered a few snacks and retreated to her room. Seated at her desk, she resumed her comic drawing.

Meanwhile, Adam, who had promised to accompany his wife, found himself in Harrison at that very moment.

As he entered with bags filled with various gifts, Catherine couldn’t help but become anxious. “Boy, have you been bullying Lumma again?”

“Grandma, I’ve assured you that I’ll treat Lumma well, and I shall never go back on my word.” Adam, lacking expertise in nurturing a marriage, sought advice from those with experience.
