Chapter 19
Lumma’s head swelled badly, but when she heard Adam’s question, she quickly perked up. “Mr. Hills, don’t worry. I won’t let it affect my work
Adam ignored her and get into the car which would take them to the scenic spot.
The people who came to pick them up were the driver and Jane. Plus the three of them, there were five people in the car.
Jane sat next to Adam and briefed him on the scenic spot along the way. Lumma and Leonard sat in the back seat and took out their laptops to record the
conversation
The car drove for over an hour. Jane talked for more than an hour, and Lumma and Leonard took the minutes for more than an hour. When they arrived at
the scenic spot, it was dark
A dinner was arranged for them by the company, but Lumma was feeling unwell and had no appetite, so she checked in first.
The hotel under the Hills Group was well equipped, and there was an oxygen supply in the rooms.
It was a blessing to have such a hotel in a remote place.
Lumma did not use the oxygen supply to inhale oxygen. She was afraid that she would be too dependent on the oxygen supply and would not be able to
work outdoors in the future.
She washed up briefly, put on her pajamas, and got in bed to sleep. When she finally fell asleep, she was woken up by the vibrating noise of her phone.
It was Toby. He said with displeasure on the phone, “Ms. Louis, it’s past eight o’clock. Why haven’t you arrived yet?
It was then that Lumma remembered that she had an appointment with the lawyer tonight, but she was in the western mountainous area thousands of miles away from Red Pine City, and she couldn’t fly back even with wings. “Sorry, I’ve been busy recently, so I don’t have time to see you for now.”
Toby said, “When can we meet? Please give me the exact time.”
The trip was a temporary arrangement. As for how long she would stay, it depended on Adam’s mood.
Lumma didn’t know when she could go back, so she said, “Mr. Mayers, I will contact you when I have time,”
Toby was afraid that Adams would get angry and fire him if he failed to get Lumma to sign the divorce agreement.
He asked angrily, “Do you have no time, or do you not want a divorce?”
Lumma had a splitting headache and was in no mood to argue with him, so she directly hung up the phone and turned it off. She planned to take a good sleep and hoped she could get used to the plateau climate tomorrow morning
Just as she closed her eyes, the doorbell rang
Lumma was annoyed.
Why did these people want to disturb her rest?
She got out of bed impatiently and went to open the door. She saw Jane standing at the door with a smile. “Lumma, I think you have serious altitude sickness, so I’ve brought you some medicine.”
Lumma couldn’t bring herself to refuse her kindness and took the medicine. “Thank you, Ms. Shelton.”
Jare looked at Lumma with no intention of leaving “Can I come in and have a few words with you?
Lumma didn’t want that, but she had to invite Jane into the room, “Ms. Shelton, what do you want to say?”
Jane looked at Lumma closely and said, “Mr. Hills is married. Do you know that?”
Lumma nodded, “I know.”
Jane continued, “Since you know, you should pay more attention to your words and behavior so as not to create a gap between Mr. Hills and his wife ” Lumma raised her eyebrows with displeasure and said, “Ms. Shelton, is there anything wrong with my words or behavior?”
