Chapter 413: Chapter 420 Uncle, You Are Really Rich

"I’ll go get clothes for Big Brother Brown." Emma Campbell finally came to her senses after a long while and hurriedly escaped to the living room, where the two of them had earlier taken off their clothes.

Sarah Grandy immediately followed like a little shadow, tailing Emma closely and pestering her. "Big Sister Emma, just agree with me, won’t you? I promise I won’t try to compete with you to become his wife. Plus, I’m about to start college soon, so I won’t be able to come back often. What are you worried about?"

"I... I..." Emma was completely flustered by this situation. If she really were James Brown’s wife, it might be fine, but she was only his lover. She had no idea how to respond to this.

"Sister Emma, then what will it take for you to agree?"

Unbearably nagged by Sarah, Emma finally came to a stop, blushed, and admitted, "Big Brother Brown is already married. I’m not his wife."

"What?" Sarah’s voice instantly shot up eight octaves.

"Big Brother Brown’s wife is Gina Lopez, his boss. I’m only his lover, so I can’t agree to your idea."

"What?" Sarah stared wide-eyed, processing the news for a long moment before angrily saying, "Big Sister Emma, how could this happen? Isn’t he supposed to like you the most? Why wouldn’t he make you his wife?"

Emma had calmed down by now and smiled as she explained, "Charlotte, someone as exceptional as Big Brother Brown — how could I possibly be suitable to be his wife? Just being his lover and knowing that he cares about me is already more than enough for me. I’ve met Sister Gina before; she’s truly the one who fits him. She’s so elegant and talented, the perfect choice for his wife."

"Nonsense!" Sarah shouted angrily. "What’s so good about that woman? I don’t see how she’s better than you. No way, I’ll ask him why he didn’t marry you."

Emma quickly grabbed Sarah and said, "Charlotte, if you really like him, you shouldn’t give him trouble. Big Brother Brown married Sister Gina for certain reasons. I completely understand, and I feel really good about how things are. Big Brother Brown still treats me like he always has; I haven’t felt that James is neglecting me at all."

Sarah stomped her foot and snapped, "Big Sister Emma, this just isn’t right! If you were his wife, then I wouldn’t mind being the third wheel. You surely wouldn’t actually get mad at me. I’d just stick around and there wouldn’t be any problems. But if it’s Gina Lopez—she’d never let me come over. Then I’d really have no chance."

Emma urgently said, "If you mess with Big Brother Brown, you’re really going to lose any opportunity. I know Big Brother Brown well enough; he doesn’t fear being pressured. If anything, forcing him will only make him dislike you more."

Sarah stopped walking, tilted her head, and thought for a moment. "That’s actually true. Back when I was naughty, he never liked me, always glaring at me. And even when he didn’t glare, he still ignored me. But later, when I started behaving, he took better care of me."

"Exactly." Emma nodded repeatedly.

"Thank you, Big Sister Emma; now I know what to do." Sarah gave Emma a sweet smile, swung her fist excitedly, and said, "Big Sister Emma, from now on we’ll team up! We’ll become the most amazing third wheels and eventually win him over. When the time comes, I’ll even let you be the senior partner."

Emma was utterly shocked by Sarah’s outrageous declaration. She felt both amused and exasperated as she replied, "Alright, just don’t keep giving Big Brother Brown headaches, okay?"

"Of course not. I’ll use a gentle approach to make him willingly orbit around us. Haha, Big Sister Emma, if Big Brother Brown really does marry you again one day, you can’t kick me out. When I’m here, you have to let him sleep with me too. Or even better, we could all sleep together—guys love that kind of thing."

Emma’s face turned bright red instantly. Sarah was truly bold with her words. The thought of such a scenario made her blush deeply. Would that mean Big Brother Brown would be intimate with her while Sarah watched? It was unbearably embarrassing.

"Emma, bring me the clothes!" At this moment, James Brown called out from the bathroom.

"Coming!" Emma replied and quickly picked up the clothes, heading toward the bathroom.

Sarah promptly ran up, snatched the clothes from Emma’s hands, and said playfully, "Let me take them to him!"

"You..." Emma was stunned for a moment as Sarah dashed to the bathroom door in just a few quick steps, slid the door open, and went in.

"Ah!" A shriek came from James Brown inside the bathroom, followed by the sound of the door being opened again, and Sarah being flung out.

Sarah landed in a sitting position on the floor, her rear hitting the ground. Despite the pain, she laughed mischievously and said, "Big Brother Brown, I saw you! Now you’ve got to take responsibility for me."

James Brown, now fully clothed, stepped out of the bathroom. By this time, Sarah was already upright, cheerfully standing by the door and grinning at him.

James looked somewhat awkward but still glared and said, "Stop fooling around."

Sarah reached out to grab James’s arm and laughed, "Big Brother Brown, don’t be so stingy. I’m your third wheel, so what’s the harm in looking?"

James deftly dodged, avoiding Sarah’s grasp, and glared at her. "Stop your nonsense."

Having failed to grab his arm, Sarah pouted, her lips forming a pout as she said, "Big Brother Brown, you’re so mean. You already have Big Sister Emma as your lover; why won’t you make me your third wheel?"

"What does a young girl like you even know?" James replied irritably.

"What do you mean young girl? Big Brother Brown, I’ve just finished my college entrance exams. In a little over two months, I’ll be starting university. Plus, I’m already eighteen years old—a fully-grown adult now."

James glanced at Sarah. Her declaration made him realize that she wasn’t just a little girl anymore but had grown into a young woman. Still, he shook his head and said, "In my eyes, you’re still a young girl. If you behave, you can stay here. If not, I’ll send you back home immediately."

Sarah bit her lip, stomped her foot hard, and twisted her body, saying, "Big Brother Brown, come on! That’s not fair. Big Sister Emma is also a college student, but you treat her so nicely and you’re always tough on me."

James laughed heartily and said, "It’s because you’re always causing trouble. By the way, did you tell your parents before coming here?"

"Of course I did! Didn’t you see I brought my things? I’m not running away from home or anything. I’m coming here openly and properly!"

"Alright then, you can stay. Emma’s taking a break these days, so she can keep you company."

Sarah pouted briefly but didn’t press further on James, while Emma spoke up, "Big Brother Brown, it’s about time. You should hurry back."

James nodded. "Emma, come over here for a moment." He pulled Emma into the bedroom, with Sarah promptly trailing behind.

James turned to glance at Sarah but ultimately didn’t send her out. He pulled out his laptop, opened it, and said, "Emma, I’m transferring some money to you."

"Big Brother Brown, no need. I still have some money left, and it’s enough for now. Besides, I can always do some tutoring or something to earn a bit extra. I really don’t need you to give me money."

James held Emma’s hand gently and said softly, "Don’t worry. This money isn’t from Gina, nor from my salary—it’s from the money I earned before."

Emma hesitated to accept James’s money, worried about causing arguments between him and Gina over financial matters. Moreover, she wasn’t someone driven by greed. Hearing James explain, she felt less burdened, but she was still somewhat hesitant. "But... Big Brother Brown, I really don’t need any money right now."

Sarah immediately interjected, "Big Sister Emma, you’re so silly! Big Brother Brown is giving you money and you don’t want it? We’re his lovers. Having him support us is perfectly normal. If we have to go out and work to earn money, then what’s the point in being his lovers? Besides, if we’re out and someone takes advantage of us, wouldn’t Big Brother Brown suffer even more?"

James, both exasperated and amused, tapped Sarah’s head lightly and said, "You little rascal, always spouting nonsense."

At this point, the laptop had booted up, and James opened a webpage. Seeing the screen, Sarah’s eyes widened. "It’s all in English! Big Brother Brown, what are you doing?"

"Transferring money," James replied casually as he operated the laptop.

"Wow! Big Brother Brown, you’re so good at English. I only know a few words." Sarah exclaimed dramatically. Although her high school English grades were decent, they were only sufficient for exams. She was hopeless when it came to practical application, and sites like online banking were utterly incomprehensible to her.

Emma’s English level was slightly better, and she could make out some of it. She noticed that James was logging into H Country Bank’s online banking system, and this revelation greatly surprised her. Regular people didn’t have accounts with H Country Bank—it was typically the wealthy who did. This meant James was truly wealthy.

Emma didn’t question the origin of James’s money. In her heart, James had always been a remarkable figure. It wasn’t surprising to her that someone as accomplished as him would have such financial resources.

This realization quickly dissipated her initial shock. Instead, she felt reassured, thinking it seemed normal for someone like James to have a bank account there. If he didn’t, that would’ve been odd.

"Oh my... Big Brother Brown! Big Brother Brown! You’re so rich!" Sarah exclaimed, her eyes wide and her jaw practically dropping—a whole egg could’ve fit in her mouth. While she couldn’t fully understand James’s actions, she could certainly recognize the impressive figures displayed on the screen.
