Two Times the Charm novel Chapter 8

She jumped out of bed, intending to go find her documents, but then the memory suddenly hit her!

When she was surrounded by those guys, she remembered swinging her purse at them, and then it slipped from her hand...

"Oh, no! My documents!" Clara thought and immediately rushed out.

Emmett frowned in warning, "If you go back now, those guys might still be there."

"But I have to find my documents! This is my first job, I can't just screw it up! My son is waiting for me to earn money to take him to an amusement park!" She couldn't lose this job!

Son?

Emmett was slightly surprised, "You... you have a kid?"

"Yes! I have a son named Alex, he's five years old!"

Then she wasn't that woman, because Aiden was also five, and born in the summer, she couldn't have given birth to two children in one year.

Snapping out of his daze, Emmett realized that the woman had disappeared.

He was frowning; he felt he had already interfered enough and shouldn’t let this woman he just met influence his thoughts! But thinking about the danger she might face going back, he couldn't help but worry.

After hesitating for a few seconds, Emmett decided to say, "Matt, go find that woman."

...

Clara hurried to find her documents, but they were nowhere to be found. She searched everywhere, even rummaged through the nearby trash cans!

What to do... was she going to lose her job right off the bat? She had promised Alex to take him to the amusement park, buy him new clothes and toys! She couldn't lose her job!

As Clara reached for another trash can, she suddenly heard the voices of a few men.

"Look, the woman is back!"

"She's got some nerve!"

One of them walked up and shoved Clara, "Are you here to repay us?"
