Everyone was sitting in the living room, but John Brown took Lucy Campbell upstairs. There were so things he needed to rearrange, though this ti it was much simpler. The main focus was the window in the bedroom. Once that was set up, John Brown wasn’t worried about anyone breaking in.
Lucy Campbell’s bodyguards had prepared everything for John Brown with just a word from her, so he didn’t need to prepare anything himself.
Although Lucy Campbell’s bodyguards hadn’t interacted much with John Brown, they were very happy to co to YODC City with Lucy. Here, they virtually didn’t have to worry about her safety. It was almost like a vacation for them, so they were very grateful to John Brown. If he needed anything, they would naturally help with full effort.
As John Brown explained how to use these things, especially the things Lucy Campbell should be careful not to touch, it filled her heart with an indescribable sweetness.
"Jas, what if I lived here for a lifeti?" Lucy Campbell suddenly asked softly.
John Brown paused, turned around to look at Lucy Campbell. It was the first ti she had said sothing like this. Although they had both admitted their feelings for each other, they had never discussed the future.
"What? You don’t want to stay here?" Lucy Campbell looked at John Brown with a bright smile.
John Brown shook his head and said, "Of course I want that, but how will we handle Gina?"
"Well, Gina is your wife, isn’t she? Since she can accept Charlotte and Emma, naturally she can accept too."
"She can accept Charlotte and Emma because Gina is a strong woman, and although Charlotte is mischievous, she respects Gina very much. Emma even more so, she follows Gina’s lead. So in Gina’s heart, they don’t pose any threat to her, that’s why she agreed to them. But like with Emily Berns and lody, she won’t accept them. Even though she tacitly permits my relationship with lody, she never thinks of having lody join us. They are at least considered rivals in her mind. But you... in her mind, you’re a BOSS. She might truly find it hard to accept you, or if she learns about our relationship, I wouldn’t even know how she’s going to react."
Lucy Campbell remained calm and collected as she said with a smile, "I only want to ask, do you want to live here always?"
John Brown nodded without hesitation.
Lucy Campbell smiled sweetly and said, "Then that’s it. I’ll take care of everything, you just sit back and enjoy the benefits."
John Brown rubbed his nose; this sounded all too familiar. After thinking for a bit, he realized that Emily Lopez often said the sa thing. He couldn’t help but chuckle and said, "No wonder you and Emily get along so well, you guys actually have things in common."
Lucy Campbell playfully smiled and said, "Yeah, in the future, we’ll have even more in common."
Looking at Lucy Campbell, John Brown couldn’t help but reach out to hug her, but she stepped back with a smile and said, "In this house, you’ll have to be more discreet with . Before I succeed, you cannot let Gina notice anything, not even in your expressions or glances."
John Brown was taken aback. Lucy Campbell’s confession had suddenly deepened his feelings for her. If she hadn’t reminded him, he really might have started looking at her differently. He awkwardly laughed and said, "I understand."
"Alright, let’s go downstairs now."
They went downstairs, and Emily Berns had already left. Emily Lopez, Gina Lopez, and Emma Campbell were chatting on the couch in the living room, while Little Violet was running around the house. This big house was perfect for her to play.
Emma Campbell’s cheeks were flushed; she was both excited and thrilled. At Gina Lopez’s previous ho, although she could stay, she didn’t have a room of her own, so she never felt a sense of belonging. But now, having been given her own room here, it ant that this truly was her ho. She really wanted to say sothing to Gina Lopez, but when the words reached her mouth, she didn’t know where to start.
Everyone chatted happily for a while longer before preparing to rest. John Brown, Gina Lopez, Emma Campbell, and Lucy Campbell all went upstairs.
"I’m going to take a shower first." Lucy Campbell smiled at the three before heading to the bathroom.
Emma Campbell opened her mouth but then hesitated to speak. Gina Lopez, knowing Emma had sothing on her mind, smiled and said, "Emma, co to the bedroom and chat for a while. Jas, why don’t you go take a shower first?"
John Brown agreed, smiling at Emma before going to another bathroom. There were two large bathrooms upstairs, both well-equipped for showers.
Emma Campbell and Gina Lopez entered the master bedroom, closed the door, and sat down holding hands. Gina Lopez said, "Emma, is there sothing you want to tell ?"
Emma bit her lip and softly asked, "Sister Gina... can I really live here?"
Gina Lopez looked at Emma Campbell and nodded slowly, "Of course it’s true."
Emma Campbell excitedly grasped Gina Lopez’s hand, "Sister Gina... I... I’m so grateful to you, I don’t even know what to say."
Gina Lopez sighed inwardly. Regarding Emma Campbell and Sarah Grandy, she had indeed agreed to the two of them, but she harbored other thoughts in her heart. Now, both Sarah Grandy and Emma Campbell are quite young, and they’ve been infatuated with Jas Brown, completely enamored with him. It’s not easy to separate them, but in a few years, if they both remain only as lovers to Jas Brown, it’s likely they’ll soon tire of this kind of life and eventually find soone they can marry for life.
However, as she got to know them, she realized that Emma Campbell’s feelings for Jas Brown weren’t just infatuation but were genuine and deeply rooted. Unless Emma Campbell was forcibly removed, she would follow Jas Brown her entire life, even without status, which made Gina feel like she was shooting herself in the foot.
Now that things had reached this point, clearing Emma Campbell out wasn’t possible. So she could only change her mindset and sincerely accept Emma Campbell. Another main reason was Emma’s character; she never caused any discomfort to Gina, showing deep respect, making it hard for Gina to be upset with Emma.
"Emma, you don’t have to say anything. Now that things are at this point, let’s just live well together. Sotis, I’m not a good wife. I’m too focused on my career, and in certain aspects, I’ll need you to take care of Jas. We can complent each other."
Emma Campbell quickly said, "Sister Gina, whatever you want to do, I will do. I’ll listen to everything you say."
Gina Lopez found this very pleasing and smiled, "It doesn’t have to be like that. Even though I’m Jas’s legal wife, there’s no need for you to be so cautious with ; it makes uncomfortable. I hope you can be more natural and truly see this place as ho."
"I w... I will." Emma Campbell nodded heavily, her eyes full of gratitude.
Gina Lopez chuckled lightly, "Alright, from now on, we’re good sisters. Don’t keep looking at like that; it scares ."
This made Emma Campbell relax quite a bit and bashfully smiled, "I understand, Sister Gina."
"Haha, if you don’t like living at the school, you can co ho every day. Jas can take you in the morning; it doesn’t take much ti."
Emma Campbell quickly shook her head, "No, I’ll still stay at school during the week."
"Why? You don’t like staying ho?"
"No..." Emma’s face turned red.
"Then why?" Gina curiously asked.
Emma bit her lip, looked down, twisting the corner of her clothes, her face redder than ever, almost dripping blood.
Gina was even more puzzled and asked, "What’s going on?"
"I... I want you and Big Brother Brown to spend more ti together. If I co ho... it will take away from your ti together."
Gina stared blankly at Emma for a long while, speechless. She’d heard of won competing for affection, plenty of tis, but this kind of selflessness was unheard of. Emma Campbell was heartachingly selfless, making Gina feel ashad of her own selfishness. At this mont, she understood even more why Jas favored Emma; her love was selfless, completely giving, not a love based on taking. To love soone to this extent is simply indescribable.
"Emma!" Gina clasped Emma’s hand tightly and said earnestly, "Don’t think like that. I wouldn’t be unhappy because of it, and you know, I often have a lot of work and handle many things at night. I have little ti to chat with Jas. If you’re ho, you can spend more ti talking with him. It will benefit our family’s harmony greatly. Trust , try to stay ho. Only stay at school if there’s sothing special."
Emma could also feel Gina’s sincerity. She lifted her head, her eyes brimming with tears, too choked up to speak.
Gina gently wiped Emma’s tears, "Silly girl, why are you crying? If Jas cos in, he’d think I bullied you."
"Ah, I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I’m just so happy." Emma quickly wiped her tears, trying to stop them, but they kept flowing, making her panic even more. She quickly stood and said, "Sister Gina, I’ll go back to my room now, lest Big Brother sees and misunderstands." With that, she hurriedly ran out.
Gina Lopez sat on the bed, shook her head, and sighed after a long while. Compared to Emma, she felt she wasn’t a qualified wife. A girl like Emma was more suited to be Jas Brown’s wife.
