Elio…
“No need to say anything. I’m having dinner with Alex”
With that, Elio hung up the phone
Clara stared at her phone, stunned momentarily, before returning to her senses
The bathroom door opened, and Emmett walked out, wearing nothing but a towel.
He looked very appealing
Clara froze for a moment, then covered her eyes with a blanket.
“Emmett! Why are you naked!”
“You’ve seen and touched, isn’t it a bit late to be shy now? Emmett smiled lightly and said in a good mood.
Clara didn’t know what to say, she just pouted and said nothing.
Emmett walked over and pulled the blanket away. “Are you planning to suffocate yourself?”
“Emmett, you can’t do this!”
“Do you think this is too much?” Emmett gently blew in her ear, causing Clara to shiver
“I have something else to do, I need to leave!” Clara said, trying to leave.
Emmett reached out and pulled her back.
“Ive booked a flight home, we should get going! Get ready”
Clara hesitated momentarily, “Are we returning with your other child?”
“Of course! I haven’t met him yet. Would you like to go with me?”
“Is that okay? It’s your first time meeting your son, isn’t it inappropriate for me to be there?” She was worried about Alex seeing her, which could complicate things.
“You’ll be his mother soon, what’s inappropriate about that?” Emmett was a bit worried thinking about his other child.
Emmett hadn’t met the child for many years or had any emotional bond. If he suddenly left his mother, would he fall sick?
But now, with Clara, Emmett couldn’t take the child’s mother back with him, could he?
“I’m not good at handling these situations, let’s not do it! Clara thought of Alex’s personality and got a little worried.
Alex was a chatterbox, who knows what shocking things he might say when he saw Emmett! He’s repeatedly made it clear that he didn’t like Emmett
“Are you planning to avoid him forever?” Emmett asked, “He looks almost identical to Aiden, their personalities should be similar too! The sooner you get to know him, the sooner you can blend into the Melendez family!”
Clara eventually agreed.
Emmett had already said this much, if she kept dodging, he might get suspicious.
“Alright, I’ll do as you say”
“There’s something else.” Emmett suddenly stood up, took out a document from the drawer and handed it to Clara, “Consider this my engagement gift to you”
Upon hearing this, Clara immediately pushed it back, “I can’t accept! You’ve already helped me pay off so many debts and provided me job opportunities; I can’t take anything else from you!”
“You’re my wife, using my money, working in my company, isn’t that normal? Then whose company do you want to work for? Elio’s?”
