Chapter 395: Chapter 402: Benefits Have ArrivedHere’s the translation: "How is it? Feeling any better?" Gina Lopez glanced at her computer in the bedroom for a while but still felt uneasy. She came out to see that, although the two had switched positions, Emily Lopez’s foot was still resting on James Brown’s lap. She didn’t think too much about it and sat down on the long sofa opposite them. Emily Lopez nodded and said, "Much better. Sis, my Brother-in-law’s massage skills are really great. It hurt a little at first, but now it feels so comfortable." Gina gave her younger sister a sidelong glance and said, "You can’t handle the slightest bit of discomfort, can you? Honey, how serious is Sandra’s foot injury?" Before James could reply, he noticed Emily furiously winking at him. He could only say, "It’s still quite serious. I think it will need massaging for a period of time." "Ah!" Gina exclaimed in concern. "Then you must massage her every day. We can’t let this delay her recovery." James nodded. Emily, however, pouted and said, "For such a long time? That’s so frustrating." James thought to himself, "Frustrating? You seem pretty happy about it." However, it seemed he didn’t mind this task either; he even found it enjoyable. Naturally, he couldn’t expose Emily’s little act. "Sis, do you want to try it?" Emily asked, her eyes lighting up mischievously as she grinned at Gina. Gina was indeed tempted, but James had already smiled and said, "Honey, you wear high heels to work every day. Your feet must be pretty tired. Later, I’ll give you a massage too." "No need," Gina said, her face flushing. "You’ve been working hard enough; you don’t get a moment to rest all day. Just focus on massaging Sandra’s foot." James smiled slightly and said, "Then, before bed, I’ll give you a massage." Emily giggled and said, "Perfect for flirting and spicing things up." When it came to matters like this, Gina’s face was notoriously thin-skinned. She immediately blushed with embarrassment, glared at James, and said, "Stop spouting nonsense. I’m going back to work." She hurriedly fled to the bedroom and shut the door behind her. Emily looked even more smug now. Pinching one of James’s fingers between her toes, she grinned slyly and whispered, "Brother-in-law, now our dear sister won’t come out for a while." James looked at Emily’s face—shy yet coquettish—and felt a tiny ripple in his heart. Wasn’t she implying that he could do whatever he wanted? But James didn’t dare make a move on her. He was already married to Gina; if anything happened with his sister-in-law, Gina certainly wouldn’t let him off lightly. Playing with Emily’s petite feet was already as far as he dared to go. "Brother-in-law, someone sent me flowers today," Emily suddenly blurted out. "Oh," James said with a grin. "Sandra, you’re so beautiful; it’s no surprise you have plenty of admirers." "Admirers? Sure, I have a few, but I haven’t been interested in any of them. This time, though, it seems like someone pretty influential. Guess who sent me the flowers?" James smiled and said, "If you want me to guess, that means I must know the person, or at the very least have met them. Considering they’re influential, the list narrows down quite a bit. You haven’t been in town for long, so besides people from our company, they must be from your school. That makes the pool even smaller. Could it be your new principal, Michael Carter?" Emily widened her eyes at James, stunned for a moment, before exclaiming, "Brother-in-law, you’re amazing! I thought you’d need a few tries. Who knew you’d get it on the first go?" James chuckled. "Didn’t Michael Carter walk into the school with you that day? From the way he acted, it seemed like he had an interest in you. So, I guessed him right away." "Then, tell me... what do you think of him?" Emily asked, squinting at James while swinging her foot playfully, almost hitting a sensitive spot just below James’s abdomen. James quickly shifted his lower body. With Emily’s foot in his hands, he’d already had a physical reaction. If she accidentally kicked him there, it would be quite awkward. He held her foot firmly to stop her from moving and finally replied, "It depends. If he pursues you openly and honestly, I’ll support it. But if he’s scheming, then I won’t approve." Emily added another cushion behind her back and said, "So you’re not optimistic about him, right, Brother-in-law?" "I haven’t interacted with him much, but considering how young he is and that his father entrusted him with such a large family business, his abilities must be impressive. But because he’s so capable, he’s also likely to be very calculated. It would be hard to figure out what he’s thinking. Being with someone like that might be exhausting—never knowing when he’s happy or angry." Emily sighed and shook her head. "I thought I’d found myself a golden bachelor, but the way you described him, I guess I’ll have to give up." James lightly slapped the top of Emily’s foot and said, "I’m just offering my opinion. Don’t take everything I say to heart." "Hehe, I don’t really like him anyway. I don’t want a boyfriend right now. Spending my time with you and Sis makes me really happy. I’m just going to cling to you two forever and never get married." James laughed aloud and said, "If you really don’t get married, Mom will probably tie you up and force you to." Emily stuck out her tongue playfully and said, "Don’t worry. I’m not as clumsy as my sister. By then, I’ll sweet-talk Mom for sure." The two joked and laughed. James became much more at ease, and his earlier physical reaction subsided. Realizing the massage had gone on long enough, he tapped Emily’s foot and said, "Alright, that’s it for today." "What? Done already? Just a little longer, please?" Emily pouted, keeping her foot on James’s lap. James lowered his voice and said, "The massage has gone on long enough. Don’t make your sister overthink things." "Oh..." Emily reluctantly withdrew her foot. James let out a sigh of relief and got up. Emily, however, sat up first. Resting her arm on his shoulder, she leaned in and whispered in his ear, "Brother-in-law, does that mean I might be overthinking too?" James was instantly flustered, while Emily giggled and darted into the bathroom. James shook his head. This little sister-in-law of his was truly a minx. He felt like she had him wrapped around her little finger all the time. At around nine, James entered the bedroom. Gina was sitting on the bed with her laptop on her lap. She looked up at him and smiled. "Hubby, thank you for working so hard." "What hard work? I finished Sandra’s massage a while ago. I just didn’t want to disturb your work, so I stayed outside. You’re the one working hard, not even resting at home." Gina said apologetically, "I’m sorry. I haven’t spent much quality time with you. But there are still too many things going on at the company. I really can’t relax yet. Once everything at the company is on track, I’ll make sure to spend more time with you, okay?" "You don’t need to feel guilty. I’m your husband, and I understand. Here, let me massage your feet." Gina’s face turned red. "You’re already tired. You don’t need to massage me." "Not tired at all. Come on, let me take care of you." As he spoke, James grabbed Gina’s feet. Her feet tensed up immediately. James chuckled and said, "Still this sensitive? I’m your husband, you know." "I... I’m just not used to it," Gina stammered awkwardly. "You didn’t do this before." "Well, you’ll get used to it from now on." James smiled as he started gently massaging her feet. He didn’t hold back while massaging Gina’s feet. At first, she let out a few soft cries of pain, but she soon felt her feet relax. The sensation quickly turned to comfort. "Wow, honey, your massage is amazing," she complimented. "Of course. From now on, I’ll massage you every day." "Thank you, honey. You’re so good to me. Marrying you was the best decision I’ve ever made." "Haha, I love hearing that." James laughed heartily, feeling undeniably pleased with himself. After a while, James’s hands began to wander. With his stunning wife right in front of him, unlike with Emily, he had no reason to hold back. He let his hands gently caress Gina’s feet. "Honey, are you feeling frustrated?"

He suddenly felt a burst of excitement. Could it be that Gina might take the initiative to help him? "Then, honey... why don’t you go find Sister Sunny?" "What?!" James’s eyes widened in shock as he shouted.
