Married to the Boss: A Love in Disguise Chapter 17
The second message was sent just now. “Where are you? Why don’t you reply?”
Harry and Ruby were next to Lumma. After seeing the man’s request for divorce, they clutched her nervously and said, “Worm…”
They wanted to say something to comfort her, but they didn’t know what to say.
The husband who disappeared after marriage suddenly asked for a divorce one year later when she was being slandered.
They thought her husband asked for a divorce because he had heard the rumors about Lumma. It
was not a coincidence.
They still remembered the boy who claimed he would love Lumma and protect her for the rest of his life broke up with her resolutely and coldly when the rumors spread.
That incident had a great impact on Soothy City. Lumma thought about using legal means to protect herself, but the other party was powerful and even call to bring it up with the school, which almost expelled Lumma.
In order to continue her studies, Lumma had to give in to the mob and leave Soothy City in humiliation. She couldn’t even go home for several years.
At that time, the summer vacation was not over. Harry and Ruby accompanied Lumma back to Red Pine City to deal with school affairs.
On the night they arrived in Red Pine City, it rained heavily, and that jerk said he would come to the-
airport and pick them up.
Ruby and Harry were happy for Lumma. Although all the people misunderstood Lumma and accused her, at least one person chose to trust her.
When they came out of the airport, they saw the jerk in designer clothes, followed by two bodyguards.
Ruby and Harry thought he came to comfort Lumma, but they never expected that the first thing he said when he saw Lumma was. “Lumma, I know what you did in your hometown. My family is inferior to the top four families in Red Pine City, but we’re dignified and can’t let you disgrace our family. Let’s break up. If we meet in the future, please pretend that you don’t know me.”
After that, he turned to leave without giving Lumma the chance to speak.
Harry rushed over angrily and tried to teach the boy a lesson for Lumma, but the two bodyguards
beat him up.
At that time, Lumma didn’t get angry. She even smiled at his back and said, “Okay.”
But Ruby and Harry knew that Lumma sat blankly in the dorm room for a whole day after she got back to school. She didn’t do anything, and nor did she eat anything. She was as fragile as a
porcelain doll.
For a long time after that, Lumma couldn’t sleep well and always woke up from nightmares in the
middle of the night.
That jerk went to study abroad without any demur, and there was no news about him after that. None of them mentioned him again as if that jerk never appeared in their life.
However, Ruby and Harry knew that Lumma agreed to marry a strange man upon her grandma’s request not only because she wanted to put her grandma at ease but also because she didn’t believe
in love anymore.
Would she be hurt like last time?
Ruby and Harry looked at Lumma worriedly, but Lumma smiled calmly and typed swiftly. “I don’t have time today. Let’s meet at 8 pm on Monday. You decide the place.”
Ruby said indignantly, “Damn it. Men are bad.”
Harry said, “Not all men are bad. Those jerks are bad.” go to This content © Nôv/elDr(a)m/a.Org.
Lumma said, “Don’t talk about men. It will ruin our good mood. Let’s board the plane and Coastal City for a good dinner. We’ll meet the person in charge of the film and television company tomorrow. I hope we can get a good price.”
A husband in the name was not as important as money.
The film and television company was sincere and offered a price that was even higher than their expectation.
