Two Times The Charm Novel (Clara and Emmett)

Chapter 105
“If Mr. Melendez really wants to know, fine! I admit it! I’m into Clara, but she hasn’t said yes yet!”
“She’s my wife.”
Elio was stunned.
Wife?”
“Yeah, we’re married,” Emmett said. “And you’re openly hitting on my wife!”
Elio was shocked. 1 didn’t know! Clara didn’t tell me.”
He really didn’t know that Clara was already married to Emmett.
He didn’t even know that Clara had been with Emmett during the time she was in the country.
“Well, now you know, so stay away from my wife.” Emmett pointed at the door, “You can leave now”
Elio left, disappointed. He even went the wrong way after he left.
Suddenly, he snapped out of it and quickly pulled out his phone to call Clara.
She might have been asleep. The phone rang several times before she picked up.
“Hello?”
“Clara, did you reject me because you have Emmett in your heart?”
Clara, on the other end of the phone, was obviously stunned. “What are you talking about?”
“Emmett came to see me. He told me you two are married.”
“...It’s a long story.”
Elio cut her off, “I don’t care for the details! I just want to know that is Emmett the one you said you liked?”
“No.”

“Then why did you marry him? Don’t you know the relationship between Emmett and Alex? You’re playing with fire! Clara, I didn’t
know you were this bold. Do you think the most dangerous place is the safest?”
“No, when Emmett and I got married, I didn’t know anything! Emmett saved me, then proposed a fake marriage, so I...
Hearing Clara’s explanation, Elio was torn.
Was this fate?
After all they’d been through, they still ended up together.
“Elio, what else did Emmett say when he came to see you?” Clara was more concerned about this, “Did he ask about Alex? Is he
suspicious?”
“Brace yourself, Emmett is investigating me. If he digs deeper, I can’t hide it anymore.” Elio stopped walking, sat on the roadside,
and ruffled his hair in frustration, “Clara, I’m sorry, I might not be able to protect you guys anymore! Emmett is threatening me
with my family’s business, the Milburn family. I....
I don’t know what to do now!”
Clara on the other end of the phone was silent for a few seconds before she spoke, “Elio, no matter what, I’m grateful for your
help! If it wasn’t for you over the years, I wouldn’t have Alex by my side, and I might not even be alive! Don’t worry, you don’t
have to worry about this anymore! I’ll handle it.”
After Clara hung up, Elio was stunned.
He stared at his phone, replaying Clara’s words in his head.
What did she mean by ‘she’ll handle it?
Was she planning to come clean with Emmett about everything?
Elio immediately tried to call back but found that she had turned off her phone.
He got up and decided to go straight to Clara’s house.
