Clara was strolling down the street alone with a million “what ifs” popping up in her head.
What if I lose the one I love?
What if I lose everything?
But when she saw Emmett, she was struck dumb, with her words failing her.
“Do you need something” he asked.

rang.
Emmett glanced at her, then said, “Sit tight, I’ve got stuff to deal with.”

Elio’s voice came through.
“Mr. Melendez, I’ve located the woman.”
“Really?”
“Yes, but there’s a bit of a snag, so it might take some time to bring her over. Can you
wait?”
Emmett frowned, “What about my other kid?”
“He’ll likely be brought along.”
“I can give them three days.”
Elio seemed to breathe a sigh of relief, “Alright, I’ll bring her to see you in three days.”
Emmett hung up and turned to find Clara
Seeing him, Clara scrambled to her feet and blurted, “Emmett, about that year…”
“Aiden’s biological mother has been found.”
“Huh?” Clara was taken aback.
“Elio said he’d bring her to meet me in three days.” Emmett sat down, with his hands
clasped, brow furrowed. “I may be having another child. Would you mind?
“Another another child?”
“Yep, turns out Aiden has a twin brother. I just found out. I don’t know if you can handle
my other kid, but…you’d be their mother.”
Clara glanced up at him, “And what are you planning to do about their biological mother?”
“That’s not for you to worry about. I won’t have any other relationship with her. I’m
married to you, so you’re the only wife I recognize.”
Clara was speechless
Emmett pursed his lips and poured himself a glass of water, “I don’t know if Elio’s
mentioned this to you, but he’s got some responsibility here too.”

my sake! Elio’s been a huge help to me. He’s a good guy and very innocent. You can’t do
anything to the Milburns over this, okay?”
“You’re concerned about Elio.”
That ticked him off
“I’m just helping a friend! Elio and I are just friends! I’ll admit that I toyed with the idea of
being with him before, but the reason we’re not together is because I realized we’re better
off as friends! And Elio doesn’t know I’m married to you! I didn’t tell him.”
Emmett narrowed his eyes. “Why didn’t you tell him? Are you hoping he’ll be your backup
boyfriend?”
“Absolutely not! I just felt that since we’re just friends, there’s no need for me to tell him
everything. It’s as simple as that.”
“Really?
Clara quickly nodded, “Really! I swear, Elio and I are just platonic friends!”
