Chapter 126
Two Times The Charm Novel (Clara and Emmett)
Sophia was on pins and needles at home.
Though she knew he and Aiden were identical twins, she still wanted to see him with her own eyes!
Emmelt hesitated momentarily, hung up the phone, and then sent a video call request.
Soon, Sophia accepted the video call Before Emmett could say anything. Alex sweetly called out from beside him, âGranny!â
âOh, my good boy, my darling!â Sophia was both happy and guilty when she heard Alex call her granny.
âHave you had a hard time these past years? Itâs all my fault! If I hadnât forced your dad to have a son back then, there wouldnât have beenâ¦â
Emmett frowned, âMom, heâs still young, he doesnât understand all this.â
âRight! Right! Look at me, talking my head off when I get excited! Come back soon, Alex! Granny is waiting for you at home, and so is your brother. He canât wait to play with you!â
Thinking of Aiden, Alex felt a little nervous.
He had broken their previous agreement all by himself. He worried that he would face a severe interrogation from his brother once he returned to China Thinking of this, Alex felt slightly downcast, âI donât want to go back yetâ¦â
Emmett glanced at him, then said to his mother, âMom, youâve seen him now. Weâll be back soon, and you can see him then. I have something to deal with here, so I must hang up.â
âOkay! Iâll be waiting for you at home, and bring your wife too. Aiden misses her and even asks about her in his dreams. Donât delay any longer; deal with everything after you return!â
âMhmâ
After hanging up the phone, Emmett pulled Alex to the coffee table and asked seriously, âWhy donât you want to go back with me? Is it because you canât bear to leave your mom?â
Alex blinked, a little at a loss, âOf course, I canât bear to leave mom.â
No matter what, saying he missed his mom was always the correct answer!
âHold on a sec.â Emmett stood up, grabbed his phone, and called Clara.
After the phone rang a few times, Clara answered.
âHmm? Whatâs going on?â
âCome over Iâve met my son, you should come to meet him too, and I have something to discuss with you.â
Hearing that Emmett wanted to discuss something. Clara was taken aback.
âI donât have any opinions; whatever you say goes!â
âItâs about Alexâs biological motherâ
âCome over, weâll talk in personâ
With that, he hung up the phone.
Clara, on the other hand, was like a cat on hot bricks.
Hearing him hang up the phone, she could barely hold onto her phone What did Emmett mean just now?
Alexâs biological mother?
Did he know something?
Clara began pacing anxiously around the room, about to have a meltdown.
She knew she would face this eventually, but this was too sudden! After the panic subsided, Clara quickly gathered her things and rushed to Emmettâs No matter what, Alex was with him now. Even if Emmett wanted to hold her accountable and punish her, she couldnât leave Alex alone! Thinking that Alex might be grilled by Emmett, she wished she could fly over to Emmettâs immediately
