Married to the Boss: A Love in Disguise Chapter 289
Lumma raised her head and looked around but didn’t see the person holding the sign. From NôvelDrama.Org.
It wasn’t until Adam sat next to her that she realized that it was him who held up the sign. “Mr. Hills, do you also like this manuscript?”
Before Adam answered, he heard the host shout, “200 thousand and two hundred dollars once…”
Adam continued to hold up the sign and bade two million dollars. The host was shocked. “Two million dollars once. Someone bids two million dollars. Is there anyone else who will bid higher than two million dollars?”
Lumma knew that Adam was not short of money. But raising the price to two million dollars suddenly was still frightening.
She was nervous and repeated the question, “Mr. Hills, do you like this manuscript?”
“I don’t like it.” Adam looked at her. It made him sad to think of the look in her eyes just now.
She obviously wanted the manuscript so much, but because the price was beyond her affordability, she hesitated for a long time every time she raised the sign.
Lumma really didn’t understand the thoughts of wealthy people. “You don’t like it. Why do you bid-so much?”
Was this man stu pid?
What a waste of money!
He was a rich man and didn’t know how difficult it was for ordinary people to make money.
Adam spent the two million dollars at will. But it was money that many ordinary people couldn’t earn in their lifetime.
Adam’s deep voice sounded again. “My people can’t even afford such a cheap thing. It’s embarrassing for me.”
“I’m sorry! I’ve troubled you again.” Hearing what Adam said, Lumma realized how impulsive her actions were just now. She followed Adam as an assistant, representing him in every word and deed.
She was fine with losing face but couldn’t waste her money. Adam definitely didn’t think so. His first consideration in doing things was the interests of Hills Group.
Adam said softly, “You don’t have to apologize to me. Just remember, don’t be afraid of anyone when you encounter this kind of thing in the future. I can afford it no matter how high the price is.”
Lumma said. “Yes.”
In the end, the manuscript was sold for two million dollars.
Eric, who failed to mess things up, led two people towards Lumma and Adam arrogantly. “Ms. Louis, congratulations to you for spending two million dollars to buy this volume of waste paper!”
Lumma felt sorry for Adam’s two million dollars, but when she faced Eric’s provocation, she still responded with a smile, “Thank you!”
Eric looked at Adam provocatively. “This manuscript should have spent all your wealth. If you run out of money, give me your wife, and I will pay for it for you.”
Adam gently pushed the silver glass frames on his nose, gave Eric’a cold look, and pulled Lumma away without saying a word.
Eric stared at Adam’s back with sinister and vicious eyes. “Hmph, you want to leave Coastal City safely after provoking me in my territory?”
Eric’s assistant rushed over. “Mr. Wude, Louisa seems to be with Callum. I can’t keep her.”
“Callum?” Just hearing this name made Eric tremble. “How could an actor have anything to do with Callum?”
The assistant said, “I’m wondering if Callum is the benefactor of Louisa? If Louisa knows Callum, that woman named Lumma knows Louisa… Mr. Wude, I think we should not provoke them.”
‘Do you think Callum can fall in love with any woman?” Eric didn’t believe that Louisa could have anything to do with Callum. “Stop that woman named Lumma and her man.”
The assistant felt this was not good but couldn’t disobey Eric’s order. “Yes.”
However, Eric never expected that before he walked out of the auction hall, Yuli would call him.
“Little ba stard. Come right back!”
Eric said, “Yuli, What the hell is wrong with you? I have something to do later. Talk to me on the phone now or some other time when I’m free.”
Yuli said, “Come right back!”
Eric said, “You tell me things directly. Don’t scold me. I’m your son, not your subordinate.”
Yuli said, “Do you know who you offended?”
