Two Times the Charm (Clara and Emmett) novel Chapter 167

She was clueless about all this.

Now, she felt Emmett was pretty good to her, but that was because... he considered himself the stepmother of the child, and the child was decent to her, there was a bit of guilt in his heart.

But if he knew the truth...

"Emmett, can I ask you something?"

Emmett glanced at her, "What?"

"What if... I mean what if... one day you found out that I've been lying to you, what would you do?"

"You've asked me this before, haven't you? I guess, you want to confront me directly, right?" Emmett said, "Spill it, how did you deceive me?"

Clara regretted asking that question now.

What kind of person is this Emmett! She was just trying to feel him out...

Asking this way, isn't it the same as telling him the truth?

"Emmett, why so serious? I just want to know the outcome! Today, um... I read a news story about a wife who deceived her husband and then the husband killed his wife! I think your personality..."

"You're saying I'd kill too?"

"No, no, no!" Clara quickly explained, "You're overthinking it, I just want to know, what would be your reaction!"

"What kind of reaction do you hope I'd have?"

"How would I know?"

"It depends on the severity of the matter."
