Chapter 92 Emily Jenkins’s Trouble
After Lucy Campbell left, James Brown furrowed his brows. Although he had been casual in his conversation with her, he had constantly been thinking about her reason for visiting, yet he couldn’t figure out her intentions.
But one thing was clear to James, Lucy’s presence here was indeed troublesome. Although he was no longer actively serving, he couldn’t neglect Lucy’s safety, especially since she held an extraordinary status in A Nation. If something were to happen to her, the impact would be significant.
He stubbed out his cigarette and walked out of his apartment, looked around the corridor, and noticed several strategically placed hidden cameras covering the entire stairwell. Inside the stairwell, both upstairs and downstairs, cameras were installed as well.
This meant that anyone attempting to approach via the stairs would immediately be noticed by those responsible for protecting Lucy. James also knew that at any given time, there was definitely at least one bodyguard staying in a room on each floor tasked with Lucy’s safety.
Once back in his apartment, James peeked outside and saw more cameras on the exterior wall, rendering it impossible for anyone to sneak into Lucy’s apartment unnoticed.
Overall, the protection in place for Lucy seemed adequate.
However, for James, this was extremely uncomfortable. Not only was Lucy being protected, but he himself was also under surveillance, which impeded his freedom.
But James could do nothing to stop this; Lucy’s presence had indeed brought him a fair amount of trouble.
He wondered when she would leave so he could get back to his own life.
Although James had once saved Lucy, he never dwelt on that incident. It was just one of the many assignments he had undertaken, nothing particularly memorable.
His phone rang; it was Emily Jenkins, whom he hadn’t seen for some days. James answered the call, and Emily’s anxious voice came through, "Big Brother Brown, can you come and pick me up?"
