Chapter 371 - 378: Extracting Fingerprints
James Brown was sleeping very deeply and soundly, but Helen Wilson at this moment was tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep.
"You bastard, to go and get married just like that, without even telling me a word." Helen Wilson vented her dissatisfaction by punching the pillow repeatedly.
She had said she didn’t want to advance any further with James Brown, but even if she said it was okay, James Brown shouldn’t have just done it. And even if you get married, you don’t have to do it so quickly, let alone not even telling her at all.
Now it was too much, she actually called their house while the couple was in bed, even asking James to spend the night at her place; how was she going to face Gina Lopez after that? After all, Gina and she were acquaintances, and their fathers were comrades in arms. Just the thought of meeting in the future was making Helen Wilson’s face burn.
Helen Wilson was not only angry, but also extremely embarrassed. How could she possibly fall asleep at this time?
The next day was the weekend, and Helen Wilson really wanted to call James Brown to get him out, firstly to ask the jerk why he got married without telling her, and secondly, she wanted to obtain James Brown’s fingerprints—an extremely important matter. She wouldn’t be satisfied until she figured it out.
But she was afraid James might be with Gina Lopez right now; calling him would be even more embarrassing, so she picked up the phone several times, dialed James Brown’s mobile number, but always lacked the courage to actually make the call.
After dawdling at home for a bit more, Helen Wilson finally couldn’t resist the urge to know the truth, bit the bullet, and dialed the number, but it wasn’t James Brown’s, it was Gina Lopez’s.
The phone was quickly answered, and Helen Wilson tried to speak in a very casual tone: "Mr. Lopez, I’m really sorry about last night, for disturbing you guys, but I really need to speak with James about an important matter—it’s work-related. Please don’t overthink it, is it possible for James to come by? Once I discuss this matter with him today, I promise I won’t bother him anymore."
