Chapter 194
Two Times The Charm Novel (Clara and Emmett)
Please calm down! I think we can discuss this issue. For example, how about we take half of the compensation from AW Company?â âDo you think Iâm short on money? If I really needed money, wouldnât it be better if I went straight to Taylor? Why should I let you guys get involved?â âWellâ¦
darling. Iâll give you a satisfactory answer!â
âI wonder, are you going to release the news? Leah was running out of patience.
She didnât like when things didnât go to plan.
It was a total mess!
âYes, we will definitely release it! Just give us a bit of time!â
âYou need to discuss timing to release a piece of news?â Leah was annoyed, Till give you ten days tops! If itâs not out by then, Iâll find another outlet! This news, I guarantee itâs a big deal, and Iâll have more important news in the future! The hush money AW Corporation gave you is peanuts!â
The other party didnât respond, but Leah knew they were tempted.
âThatâs all Iâve got to say, you guys weigh it up.â
With that, she hung up.
Leah was idly playing with her coffee, when she suddenly dumped it into the trash!
No matter what happened, no matter how hard the road, Emmettâs wife could only be Leah.
Leah gave a cold laugh, told the driver, âIâm going to a bakery, buy all the pastries for today.â

âSo many women are jealous of my figure! No matter how much I eat, I wonât gain weight! Itâs not that I eat a lot, itâs that I donât gain weight no matter what I eat.â
âThen you should eat more.â
âFine, Iâll eat moreâ¦
Clara lowered her head to pick up her knife and fork, and took the steak Emmett handed her.
As Emmett watched Claraâs profile, he said softly, âThis morning. Aiden came to see me.â
Clara paused, looked up, âWhat happened?â
âItâs about you âAbout me?â Clara was taken aback, âWhat happened to me?â
âAiden thinks my mom is being unfair to you, thinks youâre being wronged, and he hasnât been sleeping well because of it. I saw how he looked this morning and knew he must have thought about it a lot before deciding to come see me.â
Aiden was unlike other children, if he didnât have something important, he wouldnât have come to see Emmett. Especially with such a serious expression.
Clara felt a warmth in her heart, her eyes began to feel a little sore for some reasonâ¦
âAiden⦠loves me so much!â
Aiden hadnât been able to live with Clara since he was a child, and she felt deeply guilty about it.
She had always been afraid that if she had another child one day, Aiden wouldnât forgive her! But now it seemed, she was overthinking
