Chapter 275
Two Times The Charm Novel (Clara and Emmett)
Clara dashed to the office. She wasnât sure if Emmettâs greetings or something else held things up, but the scheduled meeting was delayed for an hour. She still made it.
She quickly slipped into her high heels and formal wear, then picked up her folder and headed for the meeting room., Ricardo caught up with her on her way, saying, âMs. Calloway, no need for you to go to the construction site today. I can handle it myself.â
âWhy?â Clara was puzzled, âDidnât we agree on this before?â
ââ¦â
âYou donât have to hesitate; just spit it out.â Clara knew there must be a reason for his hesitation, âIn front of me, you donât need to be like this. Not many people in this company know about my relationship with Emmett; you donât have to treat me as a boss; just regard me as a regular secretary or a newbie designer.â
Ricardo reluctantly said, âItâs because Taylor is also going to the site; Iâm afraid your meeting might upset Mr. Melendez. Last time heâ¦â
Taylor?
Clara puzzled, âWhy would he go to our site? Heâs not even collaborating with our company.â
âBecause Taylor bought a house there, and this house was the one that caused us trouble before.
Taylor said, if we want him to let go of this house, we have toâ¦â
âWe have to what?â Clara frowned, âJust spill it! Youâre making me nervous!â
âWe have to let you speak with him in person.â
H M Clara never thought that Taylor would openly confront the Melendez family!
âMr. Melendez just found out about this, so he asked me to inform you not to go to the site today. Heâll handle it.â
âDo you know how Emmett plans to handle it?â Even though Clara knew she shouldnât interfere, she couldnât ignore this!
âIâm not sure,â Ricardo confessed his inability to help..
-Clara really wanted to punch Taylor in the face.
He used to be very rational, never doing anything this crazy, but nowâ¦
âDid he get hurt?â
âMs. Calloway, you should listen to Mr. Melendez,â Ricardo couldnât help but defend Mr. Melendez, âMr.
Melendez has made many changes for you; he wouldnât have to if he didnât love you. As it stands, Mr.
Melendez doesnât ask anything of you, and you donât have anything that would make Mr. Melendez so troubled. So, you should understand the implication. Although I donât know what happened between you and Mr. Taylorâ¦â
Clara bowed her head, âI know what youâre saying.â
âThen you should pretend not to know about this. If Mr. Melendez says donât go, then donât go. Just follow the normal workflow. Donât make Mr. Melendez worry about you anymore.â
âAll right, I decided not to go! Letâs go to the meeting; I have an idea about this.â
Ricardo nodded, âThatâs good! Mr. Melendez will be relieved knowing your indifference towards this matter.â
Clara watched Ricardo leave happily and heaved a sigh.
