Two Times The Charm Novel (Clara and Emmett)

Chapter 103

“Uh… Just call him Mr. Melendez. He might whisk you away, and If you don’t hide now, you might not see your mom again!”

“What gives him the right to take me away?” Alex frowned, I’m going to confront him! Why does he want to separate me from Mom?”

Eho squatted down, gently touching Alex’s face. “Young man, grown–ups do things for a reason, you’re too young to understand now, but you’ll get it when you’re older. Can you follow me for now?”

“What about Mom? Would Emmett hurt her?”

“No, they just need to have a talk.” Elio didn’t want Alex to harbor any ill feelings toward Emmett.
