Chapter 83: Do You Know Brother Bob?
Emily Johnson was actually scared that James Brown was Emma Campbell’s relative because if that were the case, it would be too easy for the matter to escalate at the school. As a student herself, if things got out of hand, she might be expelled, but as soon as she heard James Brown wasn’t Emma Campbell’s relative, she snorted and said, "I don’t care who he is to you, I’m telling you, I’m very angry, extremely angry."
"I really don’t like him, it’s he who’s pestering me," Emma also became somewhat frantic.
Emily’s eyes widened as she said, "Don’t play innocent here. If it weren’t for you leading him on in front of him, would he always be looking at you?"
Little Missy then rolled her eyes impatiently and said, "Why are we wasting time talking? Beat her up, and she’ll know what to do." She then walked toward Emma.
At this moment, Emma had no idea how to cope, and James Brown was already frowning. It was clear that they were being unreasonable and just picking on Emma because they thought she was easy to bully.
And these two were not even taking him seriously. How could they, when he was a grown man? Had the girls of today become so arrogant?
Shielding Emma behind him, James Brown glared and shouted, "What are you trying to do?"
Emily halted in her tracks, but Little Missy, with her eyes glaring, said disdainfully, "You’d better wise up and stay where it’s cool."
James was speechless with Little Missy’s audacity. Did she think she could fight so well that she didn’t need to take a grown man into account? Shaking his head, he said, "Today, I really don’t want to stay cool. Emma is my sister, and I absolutely won’t let you bully her."
"Kid, don’t think you’re tough just because you’re a man. Do you even know who I am?" Little Missy threw away her cigarette and, with a fierce and menacing look, came up to James, poking his chest twice.
James truly didn’t know whether to laugh or cry at being so disdained by a little girl. He knew Emily relied on Little Missy, who in turn knew some small-time hooligans, which was why she was acting so fierce. He felt it was beneath him to stoop to the level of such girls, but it was necessary to let them know that Emma was not someone to be bullied. With a stern face, he said, "I don’t care who you are; today, I’m going to stand up for Emma. Go get whoever you think is so tough; I don’t want to lay hands on two kids."
