Two Times the Charm (Clara and Emmett) novel Chapter 46

Right now, she just wished she could disappear, just like that, and leave with Alex!

But if she suddenly left too, it would definitely draw attention!

Especially from Emmett, he'd dig into her past in a heartbeat! Then her past would be hard to hide from Emmett.

"Alex... Mommy is doing all this for your own good! Don't blame mommy!"

Before she could finish her sentence, she suddenly felt someone behind her.

Clara quickly put away her phone and turned around. It was Emmett!

What the heck was he doing here!

"What are you up to?" Emmett looked into her eyes, "Have you been crying?"

Clara hastily wiped her eyes with her sleeve, "Nothing! Just got something in my eye."

"What a lame excuse." Emmett didn't press the issue, "My parents want to meet you tonight."

Clara was taken aback, hurriedly nodding, "Okay!"

"I'll have someone send over some clothes, try them on!"

Clara quickly nodded in response.

"Also — go pick up some toys that kids like! Apart from my parents, you'll be meeting my son today as well."

The CEO's son?

Clara was stunned, it took her a while to snap back to reality, "Alright! Got it! I'll go buy them later!"

"Also, I need to explain something about my family to you!" Emmett said solemnly, "My son is pretty introverted, he doesn't really like socializing, so don't worry about his attitude!"

"Don't worry, I know my place, I won't give a damn about your son's attitude! Besides, he's just a kid, it's normal for him to reject a stepmother! I'm prepared for it."

"He's never met his mother since he was born, so he's more aloof than you think!"

Clara was taken aback.

He's never seen his mother since he was born?

Poor kid!

Clara sneakily glanced at Emmett.

"Just call me Emmett."

Clara awkwardly began, "Emmett..."

"Let's go, my parents are waiting for you."

Clara nodded, following behind him.

In the car, Clara's hands were nervously twisting together.

Emmett seemed to have noticed her nervousness, and spoke in a deep voice, "My parents won't eat you."

"But I'm afraid I might blabber! I'm not good at lying."

"Then keep your mouth shut."

Clara quickly nodded, "Okay!"

The car arrived at the Melendez residence,

From the style of the gate, you could tell it was a rich family's house.
