Chapter 338
Two Times The Charm Novel (Clara and Emmett)
âI really feel so awkward⦠After seeing Emmett last time, Iâve been wondering if I should even be here.
I feel like Iâm messing up your lives, and Iâm really sorry about itâ¦â
âWhat are you talking about? You, my son, Aiden, and Alex are the real family here. If anyoneâs messing things up, itâs Clara!â
Leah bit her lip, âButâ¦â
âNo more âbutsâ! I firmly believe you and my son are meant to be. Otherwise, why would you guys cross paths again in this big world?â
âUmâ¦â
âWe met in the bakery before, and we had a good chat. Isnât that fate? Donât think about anything else.
Just listen to me!â
âOkay.â Leahâs voice was shaky, as if she were indeed the mother of the kids, âIf you can let me return to my two sons, I will be forever grateful! I will do everything I can to repay you!â
âIâll take your word for it. Leave the rest to me! Iâve decided that youâre my daughter-in-law. As for Clara, Iâll make sure she leaves the Melendez family!â
In the villa, Clara was alone.
She got out of bed and opened her bedroom door. The servants were still standing outside as if they were afraid she would try to escape.
Clara knew that if she couldnât get them to let their guard down, she would never be able to escape..
The servant saw Clara come out and immediately bowed to her, âMs. Calloway, what can I do for you?
Are you hungry? Elio has instructed us to prepare food at any time. What would you like?â
Clara surprisingly nodded and even gave him a smile.
âI understand now. If I keep refusing to eat, the only one who gets troubled is you. If Eljo doesnât want me to leave, starving myself wonât make a difference.â
âThatâs great to hear.â The servant quickly relayed the news to the chefs on standby, âGet to it, guys!
Ms. Calloway is ready to eat!â
Seeing the servantâs joy, Clara gave him a small smile, âBy the way, what should I call you?â
âYou can call me Nestor. Thatâs what Elio calls me. Iâve been with him for many years, practically watched him grow up.â
âAlright, Nestor. Knock when the food arrives. Iâm off to freshen up.â
Nestor nodded, watching her disappear back into her room before quickly dialing Elio.
âElio, Ms. Calloway has come around. She just told me she wants to eat.â
âReally? Thatâs fantastic!â Elio felt a wave of relief wash over him. âPrepare some delicious food for her right away. Iâll come and see her once Iâm done here.â
âDonât worry, Elio. Iâll take good care of Ms. Calloway.â
Soon after the kitchen staff had the food ready, Nestor carried the tray and knocked on the door before personally bringing it in.
âThis was prepared by the chef Elio personally chose for you. Do you like it? If not, we can arrange for different dishes.â
âThe food looks very appetizing. No changes needed.â
