Chapter 231: Chapter 233 Getting the Certificate_2

Emily Lopez suddenly widened her eyes and said, "You mean last night... you guys didn’t... actually make love?"

Gina Lopez spit at her sister and said, "Of course, we didn’t."

"No making love, yet you were screaming so loudly? No making love, and you screamed with such excitement?"

"I’ve never done it, haven’t even seen a movie about it, how hard could it be to imitate?"

Emily Lopez blinked, a mischievous smile on her face, which immediately made Gina Lopez feel a sense of foreboding, and she sternly said, "Let me tell you, don’t think that just because I haven’t done that with James, you can take advantage of the situation. I just don’t want to rush into these things."

Emily Lopez giggled and said, "You know me, big sis, I’m the most self-respecting person, I wouldn’t be reckless."

"If you know, then that’s good. I’m not hiding anything from you—and I’m not afraid of you, either."

Emily Lopez’s smile deepened and said, "Big sis, rest assured, if I were to snatch my brother-in-law, I would do it openly and honorably. I wouldn’t resort to any dirty tricks."

"You’re still not giving up?"

"Why should I give up? As long as you and my brother-in-law aren’t truly married, I won’t give up." Emily Lopez glanced at James Brown in the kitchen, her smile growing even brighter.

That smile made Gina Lopez somewhat uneasy, and she couldn’t quite say why. At this moment, she had made up her mind that once their parents left, they had to take Emily Lopez with them. Keeping her here was simply too dangerous.

During breakfast, Mrs. Lopez said with a smile, "Gina, James, I think you should find time today to get your marriage certificate."

Gina Lopez was prepared and immediately said, "Mom, these couple of days are really busy. I promise as soon as we’re not busy, we’ll get the certificate, don’t worry."

"Don’t worry? I must see your marriage certificate to truly be at ease."

"Alright, alright, I will show you the marriage certificate within a week, that should suffice, right?"

"That’s more like it." Mrs. Lopez finally nodded, satisfied.

After leaving the house, James Brown and Gina Lopez quickly went to a photo studio to take two-inch photos—usually, photos for marriage certificates are taken at special registry offices, so it’s rare to go to a regular photo studio for them.

With a little extra money, in less than ten minutes, the photos were ready. Looking at the picture of the two, Gina Lopez was quite satisfied. Although it was just a headshot, the two were close head to head with smiles on their faces. Although James Brown wasn’t exceptionally handsome, he exuded a masculine vigor, and she, elegant and beautiful, couldn’t help saying, "Don’t you think this photo turned out well?"

James Brown said proudly, "Of course, with me being this handsome and manly, how could it be bad?"

Gina Lopez spat at James Brown and disdainfully said, "Keep flattering yourself. I really can’t tell where you’re handsome or manly."

"If that’s what you think, go find someone else to get this fake marriage certificate with."

"Don’t even think about it!" Gina Lopez shoved the photo into James Brown’s hand, "You’re in charge now."

"What? I thought you said we’re getting a fake certificate."

"I don’t have time for that, and you seem to be free all day. If not you, then who?" Gina Lopez flipped her hair and strutted forward in her high heels with a catwalk gait.

James Brown shook his head and stuffed the photo into his pocket.

After sending Gina Lopez back to her company, James Brown went to a telephone pole by the roadside and found two phone numbers for fake certificate vendors, then got in touch with one of them. After explaining the need for a fake divorce certificate, the person agreed immediately and set a meeting with James Brown. Without hesitation, Brown delivered the photos, and despite being cautious, the person’s courage grew upon seeing Brown’s Porsche—after all, a police officer would not show up in a Porsche.

After giving the photos to the man, James Brown glanced at him and said, "You have two days to get this certificate done, or else you know what to do."

The guy immediately grinned and said, "Two days is absolutely no problem, will call you then." Someone like James Brown, driving a Porsche, must have significant status. Although the fake certificate maker did not know Brown, he dared not offend him; otherwise, if Brown were to expose him, he would surely have no good fruit to eat.

James Brown wasn’t worried the guy would play any tricks. Such small fry might be able to intimidate the average Joe, but they’d straighten up in front of the wealthy and powerful.

Although the guy said two days, he delivered the two little red books to James Brown the next day. Brown showed Gina Lopez the fake marriage certificates, and she was greatly satisfied; they were identical to real ones, completely indiscernible. The skill of counterfeiters these days was indeed up to par. Of course, there were flaws—as long as one checked with the Public Security System, it would be exposed instantly.

That night, they brought the fake certificates home, which delighted Jonathan Lopez and his wife. Seeing their daughter supposedly settled down made them relieved of a worry. Now, all that was missing was a wedding, but Gina Lopez said she was too busy to hold a wedding right now. Jonathan and his wife did not press further, as long as there was a certificate, they were legally married, and the wedding could be made up later.

Emily Lopez took one of the marriage certificates and examined it carefully. When Gina Lopez returned to the room, Emily immediately wrapped an arm around her sister’s shoulder, giggling, "Big sis, did you and brother-in-law really get your certificate?"

"What do you think? Isn’t it in your hands?" Gina Lopez raised an eyebrow proudly.

"Pfft! Don’t think I don’t know, it’s clearly a fake certificate. Brother-in-law already told me."

"That guy, why does he tell you everything..." Gina Lopez was instantly annoyed.

Emily Lopez burst out laughing triumphantly, realizing she had been tricked by her sister, who glanced at her sharply and whispered, "If you dare expose this, you’ll see what happens."

"Pfft, I’m not scared at all. Hehe, then I still have a chance." Emily Lopez laughed and ran to the door, bumping into James Brown, immediately grabbing his arm and cooing, "Brother-in-law, you and sis are married now, I want a red envelope."

Watching Emily Lopez and James Brown being so intimate, Gina Lopez’s brows furrowed slightly, and she felt an unhappiness stirring within her.
