Two Times The Charm Novel (Clara and Emmett)

Chapter 332

“I don’t give a hoot about what others think of me; all I know is, I have to find Clara! Until I hear her say she’s into someone else, there’s no way in hell I’m giving up!”

How on earth did she end up with such a stubborn son?

Everyone knew Leah was far superior to Clara in every way, and she was the mother of their two kids. So why couldn’t her own son see that?

Seeing that his mother was about to go on another rant, Emmett grabbed his keys off the table and made a beeline for the door. This text is © NôvelDrama/.Org.

Sophia tried to catch up with him but was a second too late. All she could do was shout after him, “Listen here; there’s no way I’m letting Clara back into this house! Not unless I’m six feet under. And I swear, I won’t let her anywhere near Aiden and Alex!”

Emmett acted like he hadn’t heard a thing and drove off.

He was beat those past few days. He’d planned to go home and feel Clara’s presence, but his mother wouldn’t stop nagging him.

Suddenly, Emmett felt utterly homeless. Losing Clara had turned his world upside down.

Suddenly!

His cell phone on the passenger seat rang. It was his secretary. He picked it up right away.

“Any news?”

“Nothing on Clara… But we’ve made arrangements to bring Clara’s father back to the country, as you instructed. Should we postpone it?”

Emmett frowned. “Bring him back.”

“Alright, I understand. Also, Mr. Melendez, you need to take care of yourself. Eat something. Where are you? I can have something sent over.”

“No need, I’m not hungry.”

“Mr. Melendez, all this is my mistake.”

“No use crying over spilt milk. The main task now is to find Clara!” He hung up and gripped the steering wheel tightly, unable to vent his frustration.

These days, every time he closed his eyes, Clara’s face appeared in his mind.

After the news had broken, he tried to stay cool and not let it affect him. But he was a man; wasn’t he bound to waver?

Especially given Clara’s past relationship with Elio.

When Taylor Atwood asked if he trusted Clara, he admitted he was unsure.

Clara had once considered marrying Elio. Although it didn’t happen, he couldn’t be sure.

When Clara woke up, the first person she saw was Elio. It took her a few seconds to gather her thoughts.

Elio asked gently, “Awake? How do you feel? Want me to get the doctor?”

Clara frowned. “Just let me go. No need for a doctor.”

“You’re that eager to leave? Even if I told you it could kill my parents?”

“I told you from the start that I don’t need to leave. I just need to talk to Emmett, so he won’t worry. But your opposition makes this whole thing fishy. Now I have to leave, or I won’t eat or drink!”

“Is it worth it to protest me by risking your health?”

Clara sat up with effort. “What are you really up to? Can’t you just tell me? In my heart, you’ve always been my best friend and my strongest support. But now, I don’t understand you at all!”
