Two Times the Charm (Clara and Emmett) novel Chapter 213

It really pissed him off that she was married to him and yet she had to deal with these issues on her own!

Because she never intended to rely on Emmett. This made him feel rather emasculated.

"My dad's a scumbag. I'm afraid he'll come after you! If he knows you're loaded and I've married you... he'll definitely aim to splurge all your dough," Clara hung her head low, "Your mom already doesn't like me. If she finds out about my dad, she'll hit the roof."

"Why do you care about her opinion? I'm the one who married you."

"But I want our family to be harmonious! It's good for the kids." She never grew up in a complete family, so she had some insecurities about marriage.

Emmett held her close, "You don't need to feel uncomfortable because of anyone! You're my woman, and you don't need to care about anyone else! All I need is for you to care about me, not consider everyone else."

Clara felt helpless, but also warmed.

"You're so sweet," she sincerely thought.

"You think I'm sweet based just on this? You'll discover more over time," Emmett said with a smile, "By the way, I heard your car got hit?"

Clara froze. Why did he suddenly bring this up... Did Emmett find out something?

She cautiously looked at him, slowly nodding, "Yes, someone hit my car in the parking lot."

"I'll get you a new one, and this one can go to Ricardo."

"It's just the front bumper that fell off, it can be fixed!" Clara got up and handed him a thousand dollars from her bag, "They have already paid for the damages."
