Two Times the Charm (Clara and Emmett) novel Chapter 6

Hearing Emmett's words, Matt almost thought he was hearing things.

"Sir, are you... are you really bringing her home?"

Emmett raised an eyebrow, "Got a problem with that?"

"No! I'll get right to it!"

Driving out in the suburbs, down a winding forest path, a villa suddenly came into view.

Matt parked the car in the courtyard and hurriedly got out to open the back door, "Sir, do need me to get a doctor for this lady?"

"Hmm." Emmett nodded slightly, glancing at the woman who was still unconscious.

The blood on her forehead had turned a deep red and mixed in with her hair. She was in bad shape! There were bruises and injuries all over her body; she had clearly been beaten up by more than one person!

But none of that was of interest to him, he just wanted to know why he didn't feel repulsed by this woman! Emmett furrowed his brows, his gaze shifting towards her chest...

Could it be, she was actually a transgender?

"Sir!" Matt's voice brought him back to reality, "The doctor is on his way."

"Bring her in."

"Yes, sir."

Emmett got out of the car first and walked into the villa. A man in black bowed respectfully to him, "Welcome back."

"Any news?" Emmett strode into the study. He grabbed a bottle of wine from the shelf, poured himself a glass and took a small sip.

"Sir, according to your description, I've found four women who match the features! They've all had children, lived abroad for some time and their heights are all around 5.4 feet."

"Yes, I've heard her several times, it's definitely Taylor! Also, this is the ID we found on her." Matt handed over the ID card.

"Clara..." he muttered the name on the card unconsciously.

What a gentle feminine name! He wondered, could this woman he picked up be one of Taylor's lovers? If so, that would be interesting.

...

Emmett got up and went to the guest room of the villa, where the woman on the bed was mumbling.

The doctor had already treated her wounds and bandaged her up. Looking at her face now... she was quite delicate and pretty. Not the type that would take your breath away at first sight, but her features were pleasing to the eye, and there was a sense of familiarity!

Emmett thought to himself, have I seen her before?
