Two Times the Charm (Clara and Emmett) novel Chapter 252

"I get that I'm your wife, but you need to check your attitude."

"So you're saying I screwed up?" Emmett had never been so delicate with anyone in his life; hell, he'd given Clara his all. But she leaned towards another man.

How was he supposed to swallow that?

Clara knew they'd end up in a shouting match if things kept going this way.

So, she took a deep breath to cool her jets.

"Emmett, I goofed. I shouldn't have been covering for Taylor earlier. I should have checked on you first." Clara made the first move, grabbing his hand. "This is the last time, I swear. I won't do this again, okay?"

Emmett shot her a look, "Are you sure? Can you let go of your past with Taylor?"

Even without knowing the nitty-gritty, Emmett could guess they must have been head over heels.

Otherwise, Clara wouldn't give a damn about Taylor.

He knew Clara was a person with deep feelings and a warm heart.

It must have taken a lot from her to let Taylor in.

For this reason, he was scared Clara still had feelings for Taylor. What would that make him? A wrench in their relationship?

"Why would I lie to you?" Clara said with a laugh, leaning her head on his shoulder. "I know you're just green with envy."

"I am not!" Emmett instantly denied it.

But it made Clara laugh.

"Emmett, you always say I'm a lousy liar, but aren't you the same? Even a chump like me can see through you."
