Two Times the Charm (Clara and Emmett) novel Chapter 270

Leah nodded and said, "Sure thing! Once I get this pile of work off my plate, I'll definitely head over."

By then... she wasn't sure what role she'd be playing.

...

Clara repeatedly returned to the office, replaying the earlier scene.

That was totally Sophia and Leah!

She was pretty sure her eyes weren't playing tricks on her.

After some thought, Clara pulled out her phone and dialed Leah's number.

The phone rang a few times before Leah picked up.

Before Clara could even get a word in, Leah chirped, "Clara! What's up? Why'd you ring me?"

"Nothing much, just wondering where you're at?"

"Me? I'm obviously at the hospital looking after Elio! He just dozed off, and I went to the pharmacy to grab some medicines for him."

At the hospital,Clara rubbed her forehead, "Ah, guess I must've seen wrong. Thought I spotted you on the street just now!"

"Huh? I've been at the hospital the whole time. You had barely left when I got back! Elio was in a mood and had a bit of a tantrum! I was actually about to call you. Did you guys have a fight or something?"

"...No, we didn't fight. He's just not in the best mood."

"Ugh, Clara, you've got to cut Elio some slack! He's been spoiled rotten since childhood and always got whatever he wanted! But he ran into a brick wall with you; of course, he's not feeling great! Plus, he's done a lot for you in the past. Try to see it from his perspective, and then you'll get why he's upset."

Clara bowed her head and replied, "I understand."
