Two Times The Charm Novel (Clara and Emmett)

Chapter 236

Chapter 236

In the end, she could only bow her head, whispering, “Sorry… no matter if you think I’m a low life or ungrateful, I

just want a peaceful life! Now, being with Emmett, I feel very secure. Going to work in the morning, coming home

at night, spending time with my kids, designing blueprints; this is the life I dream of! I don’t want to change.”

“But have you ever thought about what would happen if Emmett found out the truth? You’ve been lying to him all

these years. Would he hate you? And would he let me off the hook, the accomplice?”

“I won’t tell him! I plan to keep this a secret for the rest of my life!” Clara had considered that this would involve

Elio. He was innocent! No matter how willful or fearless she was, she couldn’t let Elio become a thorn in the

Melendez family’s side.

“You’re so naive, thinking you can keep this secret forever! Is this possible? As the kids grow up or whatever may

happen in the future, any one of these can expose you!”

*…* Clara kept her head down for a moment, then suddenly said, “Alright then! If I get caught, you’ll say I forced

you to do it! Blame everything on me! I am, after all, the mother of two kids, and he probably won’t… kill me! At

most, he’ll hate me and kick me out of the house.”

“So, all in all, you won’t leave Emmett, right?”

Clara bit her lower lip, “Sorry, I…”

“Alright! I get it,” Elio suddenly stood up and walked away.

Just then, the waiter brought the coffee he had ordered. Elio left without even looking at it.

Clara watched him get into his car and only snapped out of it when he was out of sight.

Suddenly, her phone rang. Looking down, she saw it was Leah calling.

“Clara, are you

with my

brother?”

Clara pursed her lips, “No, he just left.”

“What’s wrong? From your tone, did you guys fight? My brother missed you so much, he even flew all the way back

from overseas, and you guys start arguing as soon as you meet?”

“We didn’t argue, it’s just… he’s a bit upset,” Clara raised her hand to massage her temples, “Try to talk some

sense into him for me. I’m not suitable for him! His family background is so good, it would be super easy for him to

find a woman much better than me!”

“But matters of the heart aren’t up to him,” Leah sighed, “You think I haven’t tried? I have, but it didn’t work! His

heart is set on you, and that’s something I can’t change no matter what I say! Before he came to see you, we

talked about it. I told him that you and Emmett are very much in love, and you wouldn’t divorce him to be with my

brother, but he just wouldn’t believe it, and insisted on coming here to get his heart broken.”

“I let your brother down.”

“Forget about it. My stubborn brother is such a headache!” Leah sighed, “Let’s do this, when I see him, I’ll talk to

him again. Don’t worry about this, let me clear things up with him, and then I’ll call you!”

Clara took a sip of her lemon water, her feelings quite mixed.

“That’s all we can do for now! If he has any reckless ideas, stop him from doing anything stupid! I know Elio well,

He’s very persistent and always likes to fight with himself!”
