James Brown and Emily Lopez left the café, both bursting into laughter—they had intentionally set up Helen Wilson.
"Brother-in-law, why does Officer Monaghan seem to have a grudge against you?" Sitting in the car, Emily Lopez asked James with a smile. She felt obliged to scrutinize any beautiful woman who got close to James—it was her responsibility to watch out for her sister since James, her brother-in-law, was becoming more impressive by the day, and she had to ensure no other woman stole him away.
As James drove, he chuckled, "I had a bit of a misunderstanding with her before, so she still thinks I'm a bad guy. No matter how much I try to explain, it's useless. She always picks on me, so of course, I have to tease her back when I get the chance. But don't worry—she's now a deputy station chief, she earns a lot, a few dollars, she can afford it."
