Chapter 361
Adam walked fast. Lumma used to trot to keep up with him. But now she was taking notes. She
couldn’t care about both sides and bumped into a passer-by.
The person who collided with Lumma was a tall and strong man. Lumma bumped into his chest. Her
nose hurt so badly that it seemed to be disced.
“I’m sorry! Sorry!” Lumma held her nose and apologized. But the man refused to let her go. He pointed
at her nose and cursed, still not relieved, and raised his hand to p Lumma.
Lumma instinctively wanted to hide behind. But unexpectedly, the snowed ground was wet and
slippery, she lost her footing. And the man was about to hit her face.
Adam grasped his hand firmly. Then, he pushed the man to the ground and fell to the ground. The man
was still speaking something that Lumma could not understand.
Lumma couldn’t hear what Adam said. But judging from Adam’s sharp eyes and the gradually pale face
of the strange man, they were definitely not friendly words.
The man got up from the ground and ran, looking back while running, as if there was a beast chasing
behind him.
Adam looked at Lumma, his eyes were sharp as if he could see through her inside and out.
Lumma rubbed her sore nose. “Mr. Hills, thank you!”
Adam still didn’t say a word, turned around, and left.
Lumma continued to follow him.
After arriving at the office, Lumma prepared the materials and went to prepare the coffee for Adam as
usual.
Leonard followed. “Lumma, do you and Mr. Hills argue again?”
Lumma said, “No.”
For Lumma, there was indeed no conflict between her and Adam. It was just that they had different
social statuses and identities, and had different views on certain things.

“You didn’t have a conflict with Mr. Hills, so something else happened. Leonard rubbed his chin and
thought for a while. “Could it be Mrs. Hills?”
Lumma looked back subconsciously and reminded him in a low voice. “Mr. Hills protect Mrs. Hills a lot.
Mr. Marple in Hanton City can’t say a word about Mrs. Hills. You’d better not talk nonsense, and be
careful not to trouble yourself.”
Leonard said, “If we can’t find out why Mr. Hills is angry, he will vent his anger on both of us every day.
Today is Christmas. If he vents his anger now, the next year will be the same.”
Lumma smiled and said, “You, a top student who graduated from a famous school are still
superstitious.”
“It’s not a superstition. It’s a custom. There’s a difference.” Leonard said. And his eyes suddenly
widened. “Lumma, you have a nosebleed.”
Lumma hadn’t noticed it before he said. As soon as he said it, Lumma felt her nose warm. She reached
out and wiped it. Her nose really bled. “Mr. Davies,
I’ve made the coffee. Please help me send it to Mr. Hills. I’m going to the bathroom to clean up.”
“Go quickly, leave this to me.” Leonard watched Lumma enter the bathroom before he picked up the
coffee and sent it to Adam.
ording to Adam’s habit, Leonard put the coffee in a fixed ce. When he just stretched out his
hand, Adam, who looked down at the document, suddenly raised his head. “Where’s Lumma?”
Leonard was so frightened that his hands shook that he almost spilled the coffee. “She has a
nosebleed. So she goes to the bathroom to clean it up first.”
Before he finished speaking, Leonard watched the usually calm andposed
Adam rush out of the office like a gust of wind.
“Mr. Hills, where are you going?” Leonard followed Adam subconsciously and saw Adam running
towards the bathroom.
Leonard stopped walking and shook his head. Even a man like Adam still didn’t care about his image
when he was in a hurry.
Leonard withdrew his gaze and nned to go back to his office. Laura happened toe and greeted
him with a smile as usual. “Mr. Davies, long time no see.”
Leonard said, “Dr. Cohan, long time no see. Is Mr. Hills ufortable?
