Chapter 288 - 295: A Promise Holds
Gina Lopez was at a loss for words when Sunny Nguyen put it that way.
But Sunny Nguyen misunderstood and took Gina Lopez’s hand seriously, saying, "Gina, we’re good sisters, I’ve never considered you an outsider. If there’s anything, let’s talk about it openly to avoid any hard feelings. I promise you, I will not behave like this with James Brown in the future, so you don’t feel uncomfortable."
Only then did Gina Lopez snap back to her senses, hurrying to reply, "No, no, that’s not what I mean. I haven’t had that kind of relationship with James Brown."
"Really?" Sunny Nguyen teased Gina Lopez with a wink.
Gina Lopez immediately felt the awkwardness under Sunny Nguyen’s gaze, knowing that Sunny Nguyen must not believe her now, so she gritted her teeth and recounted the incident where she pretended to be James Brown’s wife the other day, including the details—she even went into detail because she knew that Sunny Nguyen and James Brown were just engaged in that act a moment ago.
Sunny Nguyen was astonished upon listening and commented, "James Brown is really something, able to restrain himself in that kind of situation."
Gina Lopez gave an embarrassed smile, saying, "Maybe he was afraid that people would see the problem."
Sunny Nguyen laughed, "Hehe, I wouldn’t know about that. But the way things are between you two now, it’s no different from having a real relationship. I won’t meddle anymore then; I hope you two can eventually become a couple."
Gina Lopez hurried to clarify, "That’s not what I meant, Sister Sunny, I really don’t have that kind of thought. I’m Gina Lopez, even if, even if I really did marry James Brown, I wouldn’t stop him from being with you."
Sunny Nguyen laughed out loud, and Gina Lopez gave her a nudge, protesting, "Don’t you believe what I said?"
Sunny Nguyen managed to suppress her laughter, saying, "What silliness is this, what kind of person would let their own husband fool around with another woman."
