Chapter 159 Emily Lopez Does Tricks in G Region
Melody Yoody’s face looked very displeased as she walked straight toward James Brown, and Alice Brown also picked up on Melody’s unfriendly gaze. Her heart skipped a beat—could this woman be James’s girlfriend? If so, she herself had made a huge blunder, and her face turned pale in an instant.
"Mr. Smith, is she...?" Alice Brown stammered, unsure of what to say next.
"It’s alright, don’t mention my identity," James Brown said coolly, as he faced Melody and greeted her, "Melody, what a coincidence."
Melody Yoody stopped in front of James Brown and said with a stern face, "Yes, quite the coincidence indeed. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have known about your impressive charm—so enchanting that even the hostess gives you a kiss."
James Brown chuckled, "We’re good friends and have known each other for a long time. Alice wasn’t a hostess back then, so we’re a bit closer than others. You don’t think there’s something between us, do you?"
Alice Brown quickly smiled at Melody Yoody and said, "I’m sorry, Grace Lopez and I have always been like this with each other. You must be Grace’s girlfriend—pleased to meet you."
Facing Alice’s gaze, Melody Yoody, despite sensing some insincerity, didn’t feel any hostility from her. As a leader, her Vision Level was sharp—she read a lot from Alice’s eyes.
This Alice Brown must be very close to James Brown, but their relationship wasn’t that of lovers; otherwise, she would’ve been hostile toward her. Extending her hand, she shook hands with Alice and said, "I’m also delighted to meet you. I’ve been separated from James for many years and am out of touch with many things. I didn’t know he had a friend like you."
Being a renowned hostess herself, Alice Brown was quick to adapt and lightly chuckled, "Right, I’ve been wondering why Big Watkins here has been refusing to get a girlfriend for so many years. Turns out, he’s been waiting for a beauty like Melody. He certainly waited for something worthwhile."
Pleased with the compliment, Melody’s expression softened as she glanced at James Brown and said, "Looks like this guy still has some conscience left."
"Hehe, then I won’t disturb you two. We’ll catch up sometime when we’re free," Alice Brown winked playfully at James Brown, then strutted towards the TV station’s office building in her high heels, swaying her hips.
