Two Times the Charm (Clara and Emmett) novel Chapter 331

"Keep searching; find all the places Clara has been!"

"You want to activate the full search system? This might cost the head office a lot. The full search system hasn't been fully activated yet; using it prematurely might invalidate our previous tests."

"Are you questioning me?"

The secretary quickly replied, "Not at all; I'll fire it up right away."

After hanging up the phone, Emmett went back to his bedroom. He pushed open the door. Clara's presence was still there, but she was gone.

Emmett touched the bed sheet; his feelings were a tangled mess, whether it was sadness or frustration.

Suddenly, there was a knock at the door. Emmett quickly got up to answer it, only to see his mother standing there.

Disappointment flashed in his eyes.

“Yeah, at a time like this, Clara was obviously being held against her will; how could she possibly return on her own?” he thought.

Sophia Melendez asked "Son, do you have a moment? I'd like to talk to you."

"I'm not in the mood; I don't want to talk!" Emmett knew what his mother wanted to talk about, but he had no time for anything else right now.

Sophia Melendez sighed, "Son, I know you're upset about Clara, but you can't let this pull you down. The company needs you; Aiden and Alex need you too."

"My wife is missing; shouldn't I be looking for her? I know you don't like Clara, but she's my wife now! You should understand that."

"Of course. I understand. I wasn't a big fan of Clara, but I never forced you two to divorce. If not for this, I'd even think your relationship with Clara was really good."

Emmett bit his lip lightly and said, "Our relationship has always been good."

"Clara's in this state, and you still say your relationship is good? You've seen the news; she is not a good influence on my grandsons. How can I trust her with the kids?"
