Married to the Boss: A Love in Disguise Chapter 240
“They both have affairs. Neither owes the other anything. The ones who are truly owed are you and Judy, their own children. Yet they never care for you. Your father, on the other hand, treats his illegitimate child quite well.”
Adam lost all goodwill for his parents after hearing this.
That man had a girl he liked before marriage. If he wanted to be with her, he should have refused. the arranged marriage instead of enjoying its benefits while pursuing his so-called true love.
Had it been true love, he wouldn’t have made his mistress follow improperly at his side for decades.
Such a person was both incompetent and cowardly, and yet he blamed others for all his faults.
Adam sneered. “Grandma, Judy and I grew up.”
“Can the past be forgotten just because you grew up?” Catherine sighed, feeling mostly helpless. “I wanted you to find simple happiness by marrying an ordinary girl, fearing you’d follow their path.”
Adam understood his grandmother’s intentions, which was why he agreed to the marriage in the first place. “I know, Grandma.”
Adam’s character was entirely different from his father’s, which pleased Catherine greatly. “Adam, I’m telling you all this to make you understand that there is no fixed pattern for a marriage. Each couple’s way of getting along is unique. As long as you truly want to be with Lumma and treat her well from the bottom of your heart, she will feel it. Do you understand?”
Adam nodded, “I understand.”
“Very well. Join us for dinner, and after that, you can return to Red Pine City early and spend more time with Lumma. Don’t leave her alone at home. If the two of you can reconcile before Christmas, we will have a joyful celebration this year.”
Adam said, “Grandma, Lumma doesn’t know I’m Lucas.”
Catherine froze. mean?”

He continued, “You should know that I hired a new personal assistant when I returned to the country,”
Catherine recalled the incident, “Yes, I know.” Content provided by NôvelDrama.Org.
Adam felt uneasy and pushed up the silver-framed glasses on his nose, “Lumma is my new personal assistant. We met at the company a year after registering our marriage, but neither of us recognized each other. At that time, I intended to pick her up and take her home, but I mistook her roommate for her, which led to a series of misunderstandings. It was only when we agreed to a divorce and I saw her at City Hall that I realized my grave mistake.”
Catherine grasped the meaning but found it difficult to believe that such an absurd situation could occur. “Wait, are you saying Lumma is your new personal assistant, and she doesn’t know that her immediate boss is her husband?”
Adam nodded, “I have trapped myself in a deadlock now, unable to reveal my identity.”
Catherine asked, “Then why didn’t you reveal your identity when you knew she was your wife?”
Adam confessed, “Because I kept pressuring her to get a divorce when she was most vulnerable, it created a very negative impression of Lucas. So, I didn’t dare tell her that I am Lucas.”
Catherine instantly felt the gravity of the situation, “Foolish boy, the best opportunity to reveal your identity has passed. In my eyes, it would appear as if you have ulterior motives. If I were Lumma, I would definitely think you were testing whether I cared more about wealth than love.”
