Two Times the Charm (Clara and Emmett) novel Chapter 201

Emmett dialed Sophia's number, and after a few rings, Sophia's voice came through, "Emmett, what's up?"

"Mom, do you remember the pastry shop Aiden and Alex are crazy about? I'm thinking of grabbing some stuff from there."

"No need, I'm already here." Sophia chuckled, "I bumped into that lady we met here last time, we're having a chat. Are you coming over?"

Emmett glanced at Clara, "Nah, you go ahead and buy, we'll head straight home to be with the kids."

"Alright! Alex got a perfect score in the exam today, and he is very happy at home! You should give him a good compliment after you go back." "Ok."

After hanging up, Clara asked, "Alex got a perfect score?"

"That's right! Aiden was also doing a great job, being able to tutor Alex so well." Clara sighed, "To be fair, Alex is pretty sharp too, he's just not as focused and hardworking as Aiden. Alex gets distracted by shiny new things."

"Yeah, but Alex is a pro at handling people. Look how he's got my mom wrapped around his little finger, she hardly has any time for Aiden anymore."

"Alex sure knows how to turn on the charm."

"He's good at playing up his strengths, it's a talent. In the business world, it's not always the ones with good grades or impressive academics who excel in business. On the contrary, kids like Alex, who are better at handling relationships."

At this assessment, Clara could only chuckle.

She hadn't thought that far.
