Aaron seemed a bit miffed after hearing this.

“So why’d you let her help you, huh? She’s been acting all weird since she got back. What’s the real

deal, Elio?”

Elio just shrugged, “No biggie.”

“Well, you better spill the beans, then!”

“And what? You can ship Leah back home?”

I ain’t worried about her going home! It’s good she volunteered to help our company. But I’m worried

she’s gonna get swindled by some folks. She’s so naive, doesn’t have a clue!”

Elio snorted, “Your daughter… naive?”

Aaron’s face serious.

“And what’s that supposed to mean? She’s your sister, and you talk about her like that?”

“As long as she doesn’t mess with the happiness of the person I care about, we’re still family. But if she

does… I won’t let her off the hook!”

You–you’d ditch your own family for a woman? Don’t forget, she agreed to help you without a second

thought!”

Elio stood up, not wanting to hang around any longer.

“Maybe you should focus more on your own daughter!”

You-”

Elio had had enough of this place.

He had never been a fan of these kind of shindigs.

He left the banquet hall and headed straight for his car.

He pulled out his phone, thinking about giving Clara a call to remind her again.

Nah…

Whether Clara and Emmett can be together, that’s up to fate! He shouldn’t meddle too much.

If… if she wanted to break up with Emmett, Elio would be over the moon! If not, he’d just have to suck it

up.

After Clara settled Leah and made sure she was asleep, she quietly closed the door and left.

Back at the office, she saw Ricardo trotting over as soon as she walked in.

‘Miss Calloway, Mr. Melendez is looking for you! He wants you to come over.”

“…Alright, I’m on my way.”

She took the elevator straight to Mr. Melendez’s office.

She knocked on the door and only entered after hearing Emmett’s voice from inside.

Emmett, sitting behind his desk, smiled when he saw her. “How’s your friend doing?”

“She had a car accident, but she’s okay now! Just a mild concussion and a few scrapes.”

“I’ve never met this friend of yours. When will you introduce us? I’d like to know more about your

world.”

Clara was taken aback!

“My friend… she’s not really into meeting new people”

–

“Are you going to keep using that excuse?” Emmett looked at her, puzzled. “I get why you wouldn’t let

me meet your son. But why are you keeping your friend away from me too? Is she, by chance, a

special someone?”

“Absolutely not!” Clara quickly responded. ‘My friend would be nervous knowing you’re the CEO of the

Melendez Group. We talked about it and she wants to meet you once she’s recovered. Don’t read too

much into it.”
