Chapter 117: Chapter 117 We’re with You

Whether they were truly drunk or faking it, James Brown felt both women leaning on him from time to time. He knew he couldn’t let them stay here any longer, so he said to everyone, "Folks, I’m going to take these two ladies home first. I’m afraid I must excuse myself."

Although everyone was somewhat reluctant, they had no choice but to stop there and watched as James Brown left, supporting a hostess on each side.

James Brown stuffed Alice Brown and Laura Hog into the back seat and then took his place in the driver’s seat. As he started the car, he turned to ask them, "Where do you live? I’ll take you home."

Alice’s face was flushed, her eyes drunken and unfocused; she did not answer James’s question but instead said sweetly, "Mr. Brown, how did we perform today?"

James Brown laughed and said, "You did great. Didn’t you see how proud the groom was?"

Alice and Laura giggled, and Laura leaned forward to the back of James’s seat and asked, "So, how is Mr. Brown going to reward us?"

James knew they would say something like this and could only laugh and ask, "What kind of reward would you like?"

Laura responded with a sultry voice, "We don’t know; it’s up to you, Mr. Brown."

"Well, my reward is driving you home today."

"Mr. Brown, you’re so bad. How is that a reward?" Laura immediately protested.

Alice laughed and said, "This reward isn’t too bad. I’m afraid Mr. Brown has never driven anyone home before, right? That makes us quite honored."

The two women played off each other perfectly, exuding endless charm. Combined with their witty hosting skills, it didn’t take long for them to put James in a tough spot, yet not making him feel displeased. It was the kind of situation where you clearly do not want to agree, but you feel like you have to.

Alice and Laura lived in the same neighborhood and even across from each other. That made it easier for James to drop them off. When they got there, the two women no longer teased him as they had done in the car and instead seemed a bit restrained.

This was a bit unexpected for James. Based on their behavior, it was clear they were trying to seduce him, but now it seemed like they were either getting cold feet or having second thoughts.

Unexpected as it was, James was relieved and, after escorting them out of the elevator, said, "Alright, you’re home now. I’ll head back then."

Alice turned to look at James and bit her lip before saying, "Mr. Brown, would you like to come inside for a bit?"

Laura glanced at Alice and added, "How about drinking some tea to sober up?"

Suddenly intrigued by the two, James laughed and said, "Well then, I’d be disrespectful if I didn’t accept your invitation."

Once inside Alice’s home, she immediately offered James a pair of slippers, saying, "Mr. Brown, I don’t have any slippers for men, so please make do with mine."

James didn’t stand on ceremony. After changing into the slippers, he looked around the home—a cozy two-bedroom, one-living-room setup, neither too big nor too small. The interior was warm and inviting, unlike the extravagance he expected. James saw Alice in a new light; it seemed remarkable that a woman who would try to seduce a man for a better position didn’t live a life of luxury.

"Is my home too simple?" Alice offered James a glass of water and asked with a smile, sitting to his left, while Laura took a seat on his right.

James shook his head and said, "It’s nice. This feels like a home. If it was too extravagant, I would feel like I’m in a hotel, not someone’s home."

Alice immediately exclaimed with delight, "Mr. Brown, you really have a way with words. I think you’re truly different from those other wealthy young masters."

James asked, amused, "What’s different?"

Alice narrowed her eyes and said, "Mr. Brown lacks the debauchery of those young masters and is very low-key. You’re definitely someone who will accomplish great things in the future."

Joining the conversation, Laura said, "Alice is right. We’ve seen so many rich people who just throw around their money and treat women like they are nothing more than toys. They never truly respect women the way Mr. Brown does."

Alice Brown and Laura Hog both seemed a bit distressed, and James Brown understood them. Although they couldn’t avoid it in this environment, they didn’t enjoy it in principle. He smiled and said, "You want to climb the ladder, so is it because you want to escape from those people’s harassment?"

Alice Brown and Laura Hog looked at James Brown in surprise but quickly nodded in agreement. Alice Brown said, "If it’s someone like Mr. Brown, we would be willing to do anything for him, but those others are truly disgusting."

At this point, James Brown really had to reassess the two women. If what they were showing now was completely genuine, then it meant they were the kind of people James Brown truly admired.

"So even if you climb the ranks, even if you reach higher levels, there will still be people above who come to find you, and even more powerful ones to harass you, right?"

Laura Hog and Alice Brown both sighed deeply. After exchanging looks, Laura Hog said, "That’s why we’re hoping to have someone to protect us."

Facing their gazes, James Brown shook his head and said, "I’m afraid I can’t help you with that. I don’t have that kind of power yet."

Alice Brown and Laura Hog both looked a bit disheartened, but they quickly rallied their spirits. Alice Brown said, "Mr. Brown, no matter what, you’re the kind of person we really admire. If you don’t mind us, whenever you need us, we will definitely come to your side."

James Brown chuckled and nodded, saying, "To be admired by two beautiful TV hosts like this, I really do feel quite proud."

The two women giggled. It was Alice Brown who said, "Mr. Brown, you really have a way with jokes. To ordinary people, we might still shine a little, but in your eyes, we’re just painted clowns. Plus, we make our living off our youth. Once we age, we become worthless."

"Well then, I’m flattered you think so highly of me. If you encounter any difficulties in the future, come find me, and I’ll help you to the best of my abilities."

This promise from James Brown was certainly not a light one. Don’t think that just because he had left the Hawk Squad, he was without connections. In fact, James Brown’s network was incredibly strong, and with his personal strength, there were very few in SSUP Country who could surpass him.

Alice Brown and Laura Hog were thrilled. Although they didn’t know James Brown’s true identity, a man who could invest fourteen dollars in YODC City obviously had great power, which was evident. Moreover, they could tell that James Brown wasn’t the kind of spoiled young master who just says anything to deceive girls; a promise like his was likely to be 90% fulfilled.

The two women grasped James Brown’s arm from both sides, exchanged glances, then both leaned on his shoulders. Laura Hog whispered into James Brown’s ear, "Mr. Brown, stay with us tonight."

Alice Brown on the other side did the same, with a coquettish voice saying, "We’ll both serve you, Mr. Brown."

James Brown’s heart raced uncontrollably. This kind of one-on-two situation wasn’t new to him, but he had never encountered such high caliber before. Anyway, they were popular TV hosts of a city, with looks, cultivation, and temperament. To play one-on-two with them would certainly be a pleasure for any man.

Laura Hog’s lips were already nibbling on James Brown’s earlobe as she murmured, "Mr. Brown, rest assured, although we’re not virgins, we definitely don’t just sleep with anyone. Our bodies are clean."

Alice Brown’s hand was gently caressing James Brown’s chest, her eyes seductive as she said, "Mr. Brown, we would never make any demands of you because of this. We just... really like you, Mr. Brown. We aren’t selling our bodies. We just want to... spend time with you."

Even though James Brown couldn’t be sure how much of what they said was true, it couldn’t be denied that the two beautiful TV hosts, one on each side, working in unison, were indeed enchanting him. His body had long since reacted, but his mind hesitated. It wasn’t that he was afraid of them blackmailing him afterward, but rather he felt these two women seemed quite nice, and if he did go through with this, he wouldn’t be able to dismiss it easily later.

"Mr. Brown, you wouldn’t look down on us, would you?" Laura Hog saw that James Brown hadn’t responded and turned her pitiful gaze towards him, her eyes shimmering with unshed tears.

Alice Brown also stopped her actions and moved back a bit, saying with guilt, "Mr. Brown, it’s our fault for being so lowly. We’re really sorry."

James Brown looked at Alice Brown and then at Laura Hog, knowing that their behavior was still an act, but it would certainly arouse sympathy in most men.

With a hearty laugh, James Brown suddenly drew them closer by their shoulders and said, "Since you’re so sincere, if I still refused, wouldn’t I be just a block of wood? Come on, I want to see if I, alone, can handle you two."

Alice Brown and Laura Hog immediately blushed, each playfully hitting James Brown a couple of times. Alice Brown admonished, "Mr. Brown, you really are naughty."

Laura Hog kissed James Brown’s face then wrapped her arms around his neck, saying sweetly, "Mr. Brown, then we’ll make ourselves at home."

James Brown then let go. Since the two women wanted to play, he decided to join in the fun; after all, he wasn’t at any loss. His hands were certainly not shy in exploring their bodies.

But when it got real, James Brown found that the two women weren’t as comfortable as they had seemed earlier. As his hands roamed over their bodies, he could feel their nervousness, and their collaboration was not as seamless as it might have seemed, suggesting that they might have never actually been with a man together like this.
