Chapter 296
“It’s not that I don’t need you. It’s just that your stubbornness makes it impossible for me to put up with you. You
were insistent on having someone as a surrogate, I agreed to that once, and now you’re even meddling in my
marriage. Am I still your child?”
“You’re young; you don’t understand my good intentions. You’re my own flesh and blood, and I wouldn’t deceive
you, let alone harm my grandchild.”
“If you don’t want to hurt them, you should respect our wishes. What’s happiness? What’s genuinely good for us?
It’s only good if you think it’s good, right?”
Sophia was left speechless with frustration, “I can’t get through to you… Just butt out of this. Pretend I didn’t say
anything!”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWith that, she turned and stormed off.
Emmett frowned deeply, feeling like the day he’d move out of this place wasn’t far off.
His mother just kept being pushy. Sooner or later, Clara would pick a fight with him over this.
Honestly, if the shoe were on the other foot and Clara’s mother treated him this way, he would’ve hit the roof by
now!
She’s already put up with so much, and yet his mother never considered her feelings.
If that’s the case, it’s probably for the best if they live separately.
Back in their room, Clara had just showered. Seeing Emmett walk in, she smiled and handed him a cup of coffee
from the table, “I just made this coffee, have
some.”
Emmett raised an eyebrow and asked, “Why the sudden act of kindness? Out with it! What happened?”
Clara chuckled, “It’s nothing really, just… I want to bring my father back to the country.”
“Why do you suddenly want to bring him back? Didn’t you say he’s always giving you a hard time?”.
“Yes, he’s definitely a pain in the ass, but he’s my dad! I don’t have any other family in this world, so I thought I’d
bring him back. Don’t worry; he won’t be living with me, and I’ll just stay in the country.”
Emmett looked at her as if trying to glean some clues from her eyes.
“What on earth happened? You’re acting odd today!”
Clara nervously ran a hand through her hair, trying to act nonchalant, “I just suddenly thought of it… Plus, my
father called me earlier. He seemed pretty decent like
he’s turned over a new leaf.”
Emmett frowned slightly and nodded.
“At his age… It’s not easy being alone overseas. If people found out, they’d think I’m a horrible daughter. Plus, he

“Are you sure that’s all there is to it?”
“Absolutely! What else could there be?”
Emmett frowned, but despite his doubts, he nodded, “If you say so, then I’ll let him come back.”
“Thank you for always considering me.” Clara didn’t want her father to return, but she had no choice! She couldn’t
let Emmett know this secret.
She didn’t care, but this might drag Elio Milburn into it!
She had to keep this secret at all costs.
“By the way, where did you go just now? Is there something going on at the company?”
“Oh, nothing. My mom called me over.”
Emmett initially wanted to tell her about Aiden and Alex’s biological mother, but in the end, he didn’t.
“Oh, what did you guys talk about?”
“Just about the kids’ studies. My mom loves her grandkids and has poured her heart and soul into them.
