Married to the Boss: A Love in Disguise by Ava Green

Chapter 377
Shortly afterward, Lumma received another message from Lucas: [I’m not sure how much would be the right amount. If it’s not
sufficient, I can send more.]
Adam hadn’t even considered transferring money to Lumma. It was Callum who brought up the topic in their chat group, asking
Adam what gift he was planning to give Lumma for their first Christmas together as a married couple.
In response, Adam turned the question back to Callum, asking what gift he was planning to give to Louisa. Callum chuckled and
replied: [Adam, you and
Lumma are still newlyweds, celebrating your first Christmas together. Don’t compare yourselves to us old married folks.]
Deep down, Adam believed that the more valuable the gift he gave Lumma, the better. He even entertained the thought of
transferring half of his assets to
Lumma’s account. However, in Lumma’s eyes, Lucas didn’t have that much
money. So he decided to transfer her some money to make her happy.
Lumma opened the transfer and promptly returned both amounts to him, stating: [Lucas, how many times do I have to tell you?
Keep your money and save it properly. Stop spending it recklessly. Why won’t you listen?]
Lucas responded: [Is it considered reckless spending when I transfer money to my own wife for Christmas?]
Even though the message wasn’t filled with romantic words, Lumma suddenly blushed and felt her heart racing. She discreetly
glanced at the people at the
table and was relieved to see that their attention was not focused on her. She
replied: [Well, I guess not!]
Lucas sent another message: [I’m the type of person who can’t hold onto money. I’d rather transfer it to you and have you keep it
for me. When I need it
in the future, I’ll ask for it.]

In Lumma’s hometown, Soothy City, there was a custom where men would
hand over their salaries to their wives after marriage, allowing the wives to manage the money and give the men an allowance.
When they registered their marriage, Maria specifically reminded Lumma that men tend to have wandering minds and would
spend money recklessly if not managed properly. She urged Lumma to take control of Lucas’s salary.
However, shortly after the registration, Lucas disappeared without a trace. Lumma had her own perspective on the situation. She
believed that as adults, they shouldn’t try to control each other. It was a marriage between a man and a woman, not an adoption
of a son. Lumma didn’t want to burden herself with
such responsibilities.
Lumma responded: [If you can’t even exercise self-control in this matter, how can I feel at ease living with you?]
Lucas sent another lengthy text: [Maria’s health is not good, and you’ve spent
a lot of money on her treatment. You just bought a house, and that’s a significant amount of money gone. You still have to
renovate it, which will cost tens of thousands of dollars at the very least. If you’re unwilling to let me contribute to buying the
house and don’t want to use my money for the
renovations, it makes me feel like you don’t include me in your future plans, and I will feel insecure. Give me your bank account
number, and I’ll transfer
some money to you for the renovation. Then I can move in with you and be
part of your life. You said we are husband and wife, but you refuse to s even a penny of mine. What kind of marriage is this?]
spend
Lucas’s words were sincere and genuine, and Lumma felt that he had a point. She replied: [Aren’t you worried that if I accept the
money, I still won’t let you live with us in the future?]
Lucas responded: [Not at all! Give me your bank account number, and I’ll transfer the money directly to your account.]
After some consideration, Lumma sent him her bank account number.
Soon enough, Lucas transferred a sum of 200 thousand dollars and said: [The

money is in your account, and you have the final say on how to use it. Don’t always think about saving money for me. Don’t
always worry about saving
money for me. Your spending motivates me to earn more.]
200 thousand dollars was a substantial amount for Lumma, but what warmed her heart was Lucas’s words. He wasn’t just saying
it; he was showing her in
his own way that he wanted to live a good life with her.
Lumma felt a warm feeling in her heart, and a smile involuntarily appeared on
her lips. She asked: [Be honest, did you transfer all your earnings from this
year to me?]
Adam, sitting beside her, glanced at her from the corner of his eye and
couldn’t help but curl his lips. If he only earned this much in a year, Hills Group would have gone bankrupt long ago.
He didn’t dare to transfer too much money to her. Firstly, he was afraid she
would refuse it, and secondly, he was worried she might have unfounded
thoughts. So he transferred an amount that she would accept.
Since he didn’t reply, Lumma took it as his approval and asked again: [Did you leave any money for emergencies? You do
business outside, and there are expenses for socializing. If you give it all to me, what will you use?]
