Judy kept a watchful eye on Lumma. “Lumma, can you handle spicy food?”

Lumma smiled. “I’m also from Soothy City.”

Judy exclaimed, “What a coincidence! Not only do you share the same name as Adam’s wife, but you’re also from the same city and work as Adam’s assistant. It seems that our family and people with the surname Louis are truly destined.”

Lumma also found it quite remarkable. The surname Louis was already rare, and to share a name with Adam’s wife seemed like a fortunate twist of fate.

“Could you please pause for a moment?” Adam worried that Judy’s excessive talking might raise Lumma’s suspicions. He promptly scooped some food onto Judy’s plate with a serving spoon. “I’ve told you countless times, ‘Silence at the table.”

Judy leaned closer to Lumma and whispered, “Lumma, look at how strict Adam is. I bet only his wife can tolerate him. With his personality, no other woman would be interested in him.”

“That’s not true. Your brother is quite popular out there,” Lumma replied in a low voice with a smile.

As Adam’s assistant, Lumma was well aware of Adam’s popularity. Wherever Lumma accompanied him, she could see there were always people eager to strike up a conversation with Adam.

Despite knowing he was married, many women actively sought his attention.
