Chapter 216
“Alright, where are you? If I’m free, I’ll give you a heads up and we can arrange a place to meet up.”
“Let’s meet up downstairs at the Melendez Group! My place is a bit out in the sticks, so it might not be
convenient for you to
come.”
“Alright, your call”
As Clara was about to hang up, Elio suddenly called out, “Clara.”
“What’s up?”
“Have you… fallen for Emmett during this time?”
Caught off guard, Clara lowered her head and said, “He’s been very good to me, helped me solve a lot
of problems, even handled my father’s issues.”
“But are you happy?”

Clara didn’t say anything more, just hung up the phone. Looking at her phone screen, Clara felt
something was off with Elio. She packeted her phone and left, Emmett was already waiting for her
outside.
“You look a bit off, what’s up?”
Clara touched her face, “Really? You might be seeing things. You’re taking me shopping, and I should
be happy.”
“Do you have a preferred car model?”
“No,” Clara shook her head and grabbed his sleeve, “If you’re trying to cheer me up, you don’t need to
buy me a car. Let’s get some sweets for the kids, then go pick them up from school! They’ll be thrilled if
their parents come to get them. Their happiness will make me happy.”
“You’re always thinking about those kids.” Emmett sighed, a bit exasperated, “Alright then! Just wait a
sec, I’ll let Ricardo know we’re knocking off early today to spend time with the kids.”
“Awesome!” Clara was so excited that she was about to clap.
The only comfort she had now were the two kids! As long as they were happy, anything she did was
worth it!
As for everything else, she didn’t want to think about it.
Taylor returned to the office, his face as pale as a sheet. His secretary was so alarmed by his paleness
that she was about to call an ambulance.
“Mr. Atwood, what’s wrong? You look so pale.”
Taylor waved her off, “I’m fine, you may leave now. I want to be alone.”
“How can I leave you alone when you’re like this?” The secretary rushed to support him, “Should I call
a doctor? Are you having a headache again?”
“No need…” Taylor stumbled into a seat, still reeling from the news he just received.

This completely overturned everything he knew! Though Leah didn’t provide any evidence for her
accusations and his mother would certainly deny everything if confronted, but…the character of his
mother that Leah described also matched. his perception of her!
He knew his mother was capable of pulling such things. She might even have even done things that
Leah didn’t know about!
If what Leah said was true, his mother must have pressured Clara, making her fearful of any
association with the Atwood family.
“Why… why would my mother do this to me…”
“Mr. Atwood, what are you talking about? Don’t scare me!” The secretary gently patted Taylor’s
shoulder, “What on earth happened?”
Taylor closed his eyes, images of a lonely and helpless Clara in a foreign country kept flashing through
his mind.
She came all the way on her own, only to be rejected. At that time, Clara must have wished very much
for him to wake up and for him to protect her. But when he did wake up, he had lost his memory.
Taylor couldn’t imagine how devastated Clara must have been back then. He suddenly stood up and
was about to leave.
