Hitched & Hitched Again: A Comedy of Marital Mayhem

Although she really didn't want to interact with Claire, nor did she want Emmett to have anything to do with her, Emmett had the right to meet his birth mother.

She wasn't in favor of Emmett going to see her, but if Emmett brought it up, she wouldn't refuse.

A moment later, Elysia took Emmett to the front of Maria's hospital room.

Blossom and Evan came along as well.

When Claire saw them, she was equally stunned, especially at the sight of Emmett!

She never imagined Emmett would come to find her on his own.

Tears welled up in Claire's eyes, her voice choked up, "Emmett."

She thought Emmett was coming to acknowledge their relationship and reached out to embrace him.

Emmett quickly clung to Elysia's neck, looking at her anxiously.

Claire's eyes filled with tears, "Emmett, I'm your mom, honey."

Emmett looked uneasy, "..."

Claire, heartbroken, continued, "Emmett, I'm the one who gave birth to you, I'm your mom, I..."

"Mommy." A weak voice came from inside the room.

Claire quickly wiped away her tears, "Emmett, go see your sister first, this is your biological sister."
