Two Times The Charm Novel (Clara and Emmett)

Chapter 323

Clara gripped her phone tightly, “What does he mean, ‘it’s for my own good”? He just wants me to be his property.”

“Elio is really trying to protect you.”

“I know I owe him, but that doesn’t mean he can disregard my feelings! I’m a person, not a pet, and he can’t just strip me of my

A few minutes later…

The maid barged straight in by breaking the door.

Seeing Clara sitting on the floor, she walked over helplessly.

“Ms. Calloway, you should listen to Elio.”

freedom.”

Clara looked up at her, “Fine, you want to force me? Then I won’t eat, drink or talk from now on! If Elio wants me, he can have my dead body!”

After school, when Aiden and Alex got home, they instantly sensed that something was off.

Their grandma seemed different than usual, so he cautiously asked, “Did Mom and Dad come home yet?”

Sophia nodded slightly, “Hmm, they might be busy today.”

“Oh…” Aiden nodded thoughtfully, but his eyes were filled with questions.

Sophia pulled Aiden aside, speaking cautiously, “Aiden, Grandma has something to tell you.”

Aiden had a bad feeling, “Hmm, what’s up? Did Mom argue with you again?”

“No, it’s that your mom might not come back anymore, but your dad will find you a new mom; she’ll be much better than your previous one!”

“Ah…” Hearing this, Aiden frowned, “I don’t want a new mom. I only want Clara to be my mom.”

Sophia sighed, pulling him into her arms.

“Grandma knows you’re both good kids, and you never had a mom since you were little. It must have been really tough on you. But you have to understand Clara is just your stepmom. Your biological mom is still alive. Don’t you want to see her?”

Aiden really wanted to spill the truth, but he worried his parents had other plans, so he played dumb.

“I don’t want to see my biological mom. I’ve never met her; she never raised me!”

“Silly boy, no matter what, she’s still your mom! How about this? Listen to grandma. I’ll arrange a meeting between you two in a few days, then you can decide.”

Sophia believed that blood ties would definitely have an appeal. Once Aiden truly met his biological mom, he’d naturally develop feelings for her.

It’d be easier with Alex; after all, Alex had been with his mom since he was little, and he’d probably be thrilled once he heard the news.

The problem now was Aiden. Sophia was still afraid he wouldn’t accept it.

As expected, Aiden was full of resistance.

“I don’t want a new mom. Grandma, can you bring Clara back? If you don’t like her, I can make her change. You tell me what you don’t like about her, and then I’ll talk to her about it.” NôvelDrama.Org copyrighted © content.

Sophia sighed, “It’s not that I don’t like her. It’s that she’s not qualified to be your mother.”

“But mom treats me really well. Why isn’t she suitable?” Aiden tilted his head, looking at Grandma.

This is adult stuff, and you’re too young to understand. I’ll explain it to you when you’re older. Now, go study with Alex.”
