Brody grimaced in pain. He said, "Adam, don't go too far. Or don't blame me for being rude."
"That's funny. Can you beat me?" Adam looked at Brody contemptuously. Then he turned around and walked away gracefully.
Brody clenched his fists angrily and said, "Wait and see!"
...
When Adam returned to the venue, Lumma peeked at him, unable to see his emotion. "Mr. Hills, you should have heard us just now. I didn't agree to help him."
Adam looked at her and said, "Is it because you are afraid of me?"
Lumma shook her head. "No, it's because I respect you. And I will never do anything to offend Mrs. Hills. No one can destroy the relationship between you."
While chatting, Adam suddenly asked, "Where do you want to live in Red Pine City?"
Lumma liked the houses in those two places mentioned by Brody. But no matter how she liked them, she still couldn't afford them.
