Chapter 57
Two Times The Charm Novel (Clara and Emmett)
Hit the hay early! Mommy canât stop thinking about you]
[Mommy, when can you move in with Alex? I want to see you and Alex all the time |
âWhen..â
Clara let out a sigh.
She didnât know the answer! Maybe, that day would never come!
If Emmett knew that she was the woman who took his child away years ago, would he be furious and take Alex away, and kick her out?
Then she wouldnât have a single child⦠Clara dared not to think about it.
[Sweetie, Mommy wants that too! But Mommy is dealing with a lot right now, you must understand! But I want you to know that youâre always in my heart! Both you and Alex are my children]
[Mommy, I never thought about competing with Alex! Even though heâs always had a mommy, he never had a daddy! Just like Iâve always had a daddy, but no mommy! Weâre both the same]
Seeing Alden being so understanding, Clara felt a pang of sadness again.
Just as she was about to reply to Aiden, she suddenly heard a noise from the living room.
Clara quickly got up to find Emmett about to knock on her door.
âMr Melendez, what can I do for you?â
âNothing: I just want to discuss some business with youâ
âCould you wait a moment? I need to change.
When Clara emerged from her room, she found Ricardo in her house! In his hands⦠were a manâs pajamas!
âYou can leave now.â
âYes, Mr Melendezâ
After smiling at Clara, Ricardo turned to leave Clara was stunned!
Emmett had no plans to leave, he even had his pajamas delivered!
âIâll change and then we can talk. Saying this, Emmett went back to his room.
He acted so naturally, as if⦠they were a real couple!
Taking the chance, Clara quickly sent a message to Aiden [Mommy has something to do, canât chat now! Go to sleep early! Goodnightâ]
Just as she put down her phone, Emmett came out.
âWho were you texting?â
âA friend!â
âA guy?â
Clara shook her head, âNo, a girl!â
âYouâre lyingâ
It was a statement, not a question!
âIâm not lyingâ
âThen show me.â
Clara didnât show him, Mr Melendez, thatâs my privacy, right? if I say it wonât cause any scandal for you, Iâll make sure of it! Donât worry.â
Emmett glanced at her but didnât say anything.
Clara breathed a sigh of relief If Emmett saw her chatting with Alex, she didnât know how she would explain!
She was on the verge of being exposed, Clara was about to collapsel Night fell Everything outside was pitch black.
After freshening up. Sophia lounged on the bed and glanced at her husband, âPatrick, do you think Emmett is really in love with that secretary?â
Patrick, who was reading, paused and looked at his wife, âWhat do you think? Emmett is pretty fickle, I donât think so.â
âBut feel like Emmettâs attitude towards that secretary is really different!â Sophia sighed, âAnd⦠we still havenât found that woman from years ago, this situation probably wonât change, right! What if that woman insists on marrying into our family with her child? My other grandson has been with his mother for so long. If we suddenly bring him back, he definitely wonât accept it!â
