Chapter 95 of "The Supreme Soldier in the City" begins with intriguing events: Chapter 95: Chapter 95 Scolding on the StreetAfter eating the meal James Brown had prepared,... Don’t miss it!

Chapter 95: Chapter 95 Scolding on the StreetAfter eating the meal James Brown had prepared, Lucy Campbell couldn’t help but silently praise him in her heart. If she had a husband like James Brown, eating his cooking every day, she would certainly be very happy. Reaching Lucy Campbell’s level, her criteria for a boyfriend differed from others. She didn’t require family background, looks, or wealth; what mattered most was whether a man could give her the feeling of home, whether he could provide her with a secure embrace. James Brown met her standards just right. Lucy was also a woman who knew when to advance and when to retreat. Appearing beside James Brown had already puzzled him. If she had confessed her feelings too early, she might have scared James away. Her plan was to make James genuinely fall for her. So after dinner, she returned to her own home early. Emily Jenkins, on the other hand, lingered and was hesitant to leave until James Brown gave her one thousand bucks. Then she cheerfully said to James, "Big Brother Brown, you’re really too kind. Once I get paid, I’ll give it back to you." James Brown wasn’t too concerned about money; he laughed and said, "Whether you pay me back or not, I don’t really care. But still, try to save a bit. I don’t have much money either. If you spend it all too soon, I won’t have any surplus to support you. Then we both will be in trouble with nothing to eat, which would be awful." "Teehee, I won’t do that." James Brown seriously doubted Emily. It was clear to him that she had no sense of money at all; to put it bluntly, she was someone who didn’t know how to live frugally. To expect her to spend wisely was probably as likely as the sun rising from the west. After Emily left, it was already past eight o’clock. James Brown didn’t want to go out anymore; he stayed at home and exercised a bit. Years of training had made it impossible for him to stop; he still practiced this routine even after returning to the city. After taking a shower, James Brown lay in bed, thoughts of Lucy Campbell surfacing in his mind. However, he couldn’t for the life of him understand why she would come here. There were a multitude of reasons proving her presence was unreasonable, yet there wasn’t a single appropriate reason for her being here. "Forget it, I won’t think about it anymore. I’m just an ordinary person now. Whatever she wants to do, it’s none of my business." James Brown simply stopped thinking and closed his eyes, quickly falling asleep. The next day, James went straight to the company. While waiting for the elevator, he encountered Sunny Nguyen again. For some time now, although they worked for the same company, they had not crossed paths. Seeing Sunny Nguyen again, James Brown could clearly see that she looked much more haggard, her eye sockets somewhat sunken, and there were dark circles under her eyes. Though her makeup covered a lot, it was still noticeable. "Director Nguyen!" With many people around, James Brown greeted her formally. Sunny Nguyen also greeted James Brown, opened her mouth as if she wanted to say something, but in the end said nothing. After entering the elevator, James and Sunny Nguyen went straight to the fourteenth floor. Sunny seemed a bit flustered, speaking in a low voice, "Why are you following me?" "Director Nguyen, for such a small thing, just mention it, and I’ll help you," James Brown said loudly, then winked at Sunny Nguyen. Sunny immediately caught on and said, "That’s not within your duties of course; I shouldn’t ask you for help." "Director Nguyen, you’re too polite." Their voices sounded perfectly normal as they proceeded directly into Sunny Nguyen’s office. Closing the door, Sunny let out a sigh of relief. She gave James Brown a reproachful look and said, "What are you up to? Coming to my office in broad daylight?" James Brown looked at Sunny, smiled, and said, "I haven’t seen you for several days. Haven’t you been sleeping well lately?" Sunny felt a sudden lump in her throat, and tears almost spilled out. Indeed, she had been very troubled these past few days, with no one to confide in. James Brown’s concern made her even more upset. "It’s nothing." Sunny shook her head lightly, forced a smile, and turned to sit behind her desk. James sat down opposite her and said, "If you have any trouble, you can talk to me. I can definitely help you out." Sunny avoided looking into James Brown’s eyes, her head low as she pretended to study a report on the desk, "Really, it’s nothing." "Heh, I know you want to keep a clear boundary between us, don’t worry about it. I won’t bother you – it’s just a friend’s concern. If you want to talk, go ahead." Sunny finally looked up, her eyes slightly reddened, "That woman has been harassing me by calling in the middle of the night for the past few days, driving me close to madness." James Brown knew the woman Sunny Nguyen mentioned was her ex-husband’s current partner, and this woman was truly shameless. Not only had she snatched someone’s husband, but now she was also incessantly harassing Sunny, which was utterly despicable and confusing. "Why don’t you just ignore her calls?" "I do want to ignore them, but she changes her number every day." "Then just turn off your phone." Sunny Nguyen shook her head in agony and said, "Sigh, I turn it off at night, but then she calls my office during the day. It’s driving me insane." James Brown frowned and asked, "What does she actually want?" "She just wants to insult me. Apart from cursing, she just spouts disgusting things." Although Sunny had put it simply, James Brown knew it wasn’t that simple. Otherwise, Sunny wouldn’t be so distressed. Right at that moment, the phone on the desk rang, making Sunny tremble with a terrified look on her face. She didn’t even dare to answer it.

Sunny Nguyen hesitantly picked up the phone, and her expression immediately relaxed when she heard the voice on the other end. "Okay, I’ll get ready and head over right away." After hanging up, she gave James Brown a relieved smile, "It was Mr. Lopez." No sooner had she finished speaking than the phone rang again. This time Sunny hesitated before answering, but her face turned sour with anger and grievance as soon as she spoke. "Can you please stop harassing me? Whatever is going on between you and him has nothing to do with me. I’m no longer involved with him at all—he’s him, and I’m me... You..." Halfway through, Sunny’s face had turned ashen, and her hand holding the phone trembled uncontrollably. Seeing Sunny like this made James Brown quite angry. He leaned over, snatched the phone from her, and a woman’s brazen laughter rang in his ear, "Haha... Sunny Nguyen, you wretched bitch, did you think you could escape me by moving to a branch office? Let me tell you, I won’t let you off unless you leave the entire corporation." Mary Johnson might act like a shrew in Sunny’s presence, but she actually never had a direct confrontation like this. It was Sunny’s weakness that allowed her to be so bold. But James Brown’s retort was too much for her, and she screamed, "Who are you?" "I’m your father, wondering why I was so foolish to have planted you in your mother’s belly. If I had known you would turn out like this, I would have much rather shot into the wall. Having a daughter like you, I must have really bad karma." "You..." "What ’you’? With your pathetic face, only a fool like James Clark would fancy you. You’re not oblivious, are you? Why he’s with you? You chase after Director Nguyen, but isn’t it clear that James Clark is only after your money? He couldn’t care less about your blubber. If you had a bit of self-esteem, would you chase after Director Nguyen like this? Your fierceness just proves your lack of confidence and reveals your insecurity. Haha, I bet that once that bastard James Clark reaps enough benefits from you, he’ll kick you to the curb like the dead weight you are." "You... you..." "Don’t get worked up, with your condition—one high cholesterol outbreak or a cardiac arrest from the stress and not even a slaughterhouse would take you." James Brown’s tirade left Mary Johnson speechless, unable to retort, and finally, she hung up the phone in frustration. "What are you doing? Yelling in the office like that?" After giving Mary a satisfying scolding, James Brown heard Gina Lopez’s cold voice behind him. James Brown turned to see Gina Lopez standing behind him with her arms crossed and an annoyed look on her face. He forced a chuckle and said, "I was just standing up for Director Nguyen." Gina Lopez glared at James Brown and said, "Is this how you stand up for her? It seems to me you’re just causing more trouble. Mary Johnson is not someone to be trifled with. She’s the daughter of the vice-chairman of the head office." James Brown immediately replied, "Ms. Lopez, that’s not right. With such villains, the more you back down, the more they’ll walk all over you. You have to be nastier than they are. She curses at Director Nguyen, and Director Nguyen gets upset. I curse at her, and she gets just as upset. Our principle should be not to get angry ourselves but let those who like being angry get angry on their own." Gina Lopez was both amused and annoyed, "You sure have a lot of skewed justifications, but what you said is just too unpleasant. What if others heard? I know you care about Sunny Nguyen, so why not spend more time with her when you’re free? It would make her feel better." Sunny Nguyen’s face turned beet red. At Gina’s house the other day, Gina had already treated her and James Brown as a couple, but she was keenly aware that things between her and James Brown were impossible.
