Two Times the Charm (Clara and Emmett) novel Chapter 503

Clara just stood there, completely numb, a roaring in her ears.

Before she could say another word, the phone was ripped from her hand.

“Think you can run? You’ve got some nerve. Get her back to the house, now. The boss will decide what to do with her!”

“Yes, sir!”

Clara was in a daze, letting them drag her away as if her brain and senses had completely shut down.

What… what did Elio just say?

Did Elio say this baby was… Emmett’s?

…

Elio heard a loud crash on the other end of the line before it went dead.

He tried calling back, but no one answered. Finally, the phone was turned off.

Fear gripped him. He’d told Clara the truth to give her a lifeline with Emmett, a way to save herself. But now… was it too late?

He knew, from the sounds he’d heard, that he could fly there himself and it wouldn’t change a thing. Emmett had her.
