Two Times The Charm Novel (Clara and Emmett)

Chapter 391

“Before I met you, I never thought about marriage. I never imagined spending my life with a woman. But after meeting you, I wanted to marry you! When you gave me Alex to look after, watching him grow up every day, it was like he was my own child. I played the role of a father. But now you’re telling me it was all a dream, and you say it’s for my sake; should I feel happy or sad?”

Clara opened her mouth, but she didn’t know what to say.

“In my heart, Alex is my son, and you’re my wife. I can overlook all the difficulties and setbacks. As long as you two can come back to me and as long as you’re willing to forget about Emmett Melendez.”

“I think you’ve lost it!” Clara stepped back, shaking her head, “Elio Milburn, you’ve lost your mind; you’re trapped in your own obsession!”

Elio closed his mouth. He wanted to say something more, but Clara cut him off. “Can you take me home? I need to take some time to figure out how to get my kids back. I don’t want to talk about anything else, and I don’t want you to either, otherwise, we can’t even be friends!”

When she finished, she turned and got in the car, not giving Elio a chance to argue.
