Chapter 341 - 348 Qualified
After making a decision, James Brown realized he hadn’t yet answered Emily Lopez’s call, so he hastily connected and said, "Emily."
"Brother-in-law, why did it take you so long to answer the phone?" Emily’s tone held a hint of complaint, and a touch of coquetry.
"Hehe, I was driving, and there was a bit of a situation just now, so it wasn’t convenient to answer."
"Liar, you drive so well that even in the most dangerous situations, it wouldn’t stop you from making calls. Speak up, are you up to something naughty?"
James Brown broke into a sweat, as his lie was immediately seen through by Emily Lopez, and he chuckled: "I was just thinking about something, that’s why I missed your call. By the way, has Qiao Ya come back yet?"
"Nope, and if she did, wouldn’t she contact you first?"
"True that, by the way, why did you call, how’s mom doing?"
"Oh, nothing much. Just missing you, so I decided to call. My mom’s fine."
If it were the past, James would have just laughed off Emily saying she missed him, treating it as a joke, but this time while playing mahjong with her, James fully understood that Emily’s feelings for him were indeed a bit special.
He gave a dry laugh and said, "Good to hear mom is fine. This weekend, we’ll go back to see her."
"Yeah, that’s great, and you can pick me up on the way back."
