Chapter 90
Two Times The Charm Novel (Clara and Emmett)
Tm not blinded by money. I genuinely feel that Mr. Miltur in really nice to mal Alex earnestly said Iâm not a kid anymore. I know that when youâre choosing a boyfriend, you canât just look at whether heâs rich or not!â
âWhen picking a boyfriend, you should find someone like Mr. Milburn, who truly treats me well!â
Clara helplessly poked her sonâs forehead, âYou little rascal, youâve been picking up bad habits from the TV again! If you keep this up. Iâm gonna ban you from watching TVI âThis isnât bad stuff Iâm just thinking about you!â Alex retorted, âYouâre alone, so you need someone to lean on too! If you have to take care of me by yourself, itâll be really hard âYouâre talking like a grown up, which not even adults can do sometimes.â
These days, the younger generation were getting harder and harder to understand.
They seemed to know everything and spoke like adults.
âMom, can you please reconsider Mr. Milburn? Alex tugged at Claraâs sleeve, âI like him, I really want him to be my dad!â
Looking at Alexâs eager eyes, Clara felt at a loss for how to turn him down.
But she really couldnât accept Elio.
If she did, not only would she be laughed at, but so would Ello.
é The Melendez family is no joke, sheâs been very careful with her actions. If Elio got involved, she really wouldnât know what to do.
Just as Alex was about to speak again, there was a knock on the door.
Clara quickly got up to answer it, only to find a hurried Elio.
âBig trouble, Clara! The Melendez family contacted my father, they want to know about your past!â
âWhat?â
âMy father doesnât know about this, so he called me to go back and explain! Has the Melendez family started suspecting something? Do they know about the child?â
Now, Clara knew she couldnât hide it any longer.
She nodded, âYes. Alex was running around outside and was noticed by the Melendez family! But they donât know that Iâm the woman! You must keep this secret for me! I canât lose Alex, if they found out, they wouldnât let me off the hook and wouldnât let Alex stay with me! Without him, I wouldnât be able to survive!â
âIâll definitely help you, but they are really hard to deal with.â Elio also felt the situation was extremely tricky!
Mainly because dealing with them was indeed a tough nut to crack.
âElio without Alex, I canât survive Clara bit her lip, âI know this is difficult for you, youâve been helping us hide for so long! If it wasnât for you, I might have even lost Alex back then, but now I canât be without him even more!â
âWhat if help you and Alex find a place to hide?â Elio didnât really have any other solutions.
The Melendez family is very influential, if they decide to focus on investigating something, it wonât be easy to evade their pursuit no matter where you run!
âThat would be great, as long as Alex is safe, Iâm willing to do anything!â
Tll contact the people over there, and see if we can get you guys over there as soon as possible.â
Clara frowned, looking a little troubled.
Just as she was hesitating, her phone suddenly rang It was a call from Emmett Clara felt like running away on the spot when she saw his name.
