Chapter 155

Just as Clara was about to speak, a sudden commotion came from outside.

They rushed out to see what was going on, and it seemed like there was a showdown happening right

at the entrance.

77 go check it out! You stay put, in case they start throwing punches, you might get hurt and that would

upset Mr. Melendez”

Clare was never one for rubbernecking, so she just nodded, “Alright, I’ll get working on that

performance chart. We’re supposed to announce it this afternoon, right?”

“Yep. But if you’re not feeling up to it, we can always postpone it till tomorrow!”

“No, I’ll be fine.”

Ricardo chuckled and left.

And then there was her alone… left in the office.

Clara stood there, her feelings even more complicated than when she was abroad! Back then, it was

fear, but now… it was like a wave of emotions. crashed over her, leaving her, gasping for air.

Finally, the work day was over. Clara looked at the office door, surprisingly feeling a bit down.

Usually at this time, Emmett would have come to take her home.

She checked the time and dialed up Aiden and Alex’s school, ‘Hello, I’m Aiden and Alex’s mom. Have

they been dismissed?”

“Mrs. Melendez? They’ve already been picked up by the Melendez family!”

“Oh!… How’s Alex doing at school?” She was still a bit worried.

“Alex is full of energy! Always hanging around his brother.” The teacher chuckled, “Don’t worry, we

have one–on–one teacher–student ratios here! We’ll communicate with the parents if there are any

issues.”

“Thank you for your help!”

After hanging up, Clara tidied up her desk.

Looks like she was going home alone today!

She grabbed her bag and headed for the door, but as soon as she opened it, she walked straight into a

solid chest…

A familiar scent filled her nose, and Clara, taken aback, looked up-

It was Emmett.

He came!

“Where are you off to?” Emmett glanced at the bag in her hand.

…Home.” Clara lowered her head, avoiding his gaze, “I thought you were too busy to give me a ride

today.”

Emmett frowned, his eyes fixed on her.

After a few seconds, he reached out and grabbed her wrist.

“Did I scare you today?”

Clara was taken aback, not quite getting what he meant.

“Huh?”

“You need to understand, I’m a man, and when a man gets jealousy…” There was a hint of

helplessness and indulgence in Emmett’s eyes, “Of course, I know you didn’t expect to run into me.

You and Taylor were probably happy together, never thought you’d break up, let alone marry me.”

His sudden compromise left Clara a little flustered.

She had already assumed that Emmett was definitely going to divorce her this time!

“Emmett…

“Let me finish.” His voice was a little hoarse, suggesting he had also been going through a mental

struggle, “I shouldn’t have kept testing you, and I won’t do it again. But think we need a permanent

solution to our problems”

“And what’s your solution?”

“Let’s… have a child.” Emmett looked at her seriously. “That way, there’ll be a bond between us, not

just you and me.”
