Chapter 69

Clara was still busy making desserts when Sophia Melendez showed up with Aiden.

Seeing Alden, Clara quickly wiped her hands and came out, greeting him with a gentle

smile, “Aiden, I made some yummy stuff. Come taste it. Aiden glanced at Sophia, who

gave a slight nod, and he went over to Clara.

The two of them went into the kitchen together. Watching their backs, Sophia sighed,

“Clara really seems to have a thing for Aiden. I can’t tell if she’s genuine or just putting on

a show.”

Emmett raised an eyebrow, “She can’t act for nuts.”

“That’s good then! After all, you found her, so I can only trust your judgment.” Sophla

chuckled, “I don’t have many wishes in my life. I just hope Aiden can grow up safe and

sound. After all, he’s grown up with me. Even if you have more kids later, I might not love

them as much as I do him.”

“You already have Aiden and you still want me to have more kids?” Emmett frowned.

Sophia pointed at the kitchen with her chin, “Aren’t you and Clara planning to have a kid?

How long can your marriage last if you don’t even have a kid?”

“The point of marriage isn’t to keep it going as long as possible! You wouldn’t understand,

so don’t butt in

“Alright, alright, I won’t meddle! I brought Aiden over, so I’ll head back now. Your dad’s not

feeling well today, I need to accompany him to the hospital”

Emmett nodded, “Do you need me to send someone with you?”

*No need. I don’t think it’s anything serious. Your dad’s getting old, his health isn’t what it

used to be. Now that you’re married, he can rest easy. Your dad and I can enjoy our

twilight years.

Emmett frowned, “I’ll drive you.”

“No, that’s not necessary. Better keep an eye on the kitchen. I’m…I’m still worried Clara

might do something to Aiden. After all, she’s his stepmother”

“Clara won’t…”

“Better safe than sorry! You go check, don’t worry about me.”

Sophia shoved Emmett back towards the kitchen before leaving with ease..

Emmett, helpless, walked into the kitchen and saw the two of them happily chatting..

He had never seen Aiden laugh so happily before.

When Aiden noticed Emmett, his smile vanished instantly and he stood there,

expressionless.

Clara was taken aback, instinctively pulling Aiden behind her, “Mr Melendez, would you

like to taste some?”

‘No, you guys seem to be having fun. I’ll get back to work, you stay with Aiden.”

“Alright,” Clara nodded.

Emmett looked at his son, asking, “Do you like her as your mom?”

Aiden stared at Emmett for a while before nodding slowly, “Hmm.”

“Good, you guys have fun here, I’ll get back to work.”

Emmett turned around and left while Clara watched his retreating figure until he was out

of sight. Then she turned to Aiden and asked cautiously, “Are you scared of your father?

You seem reluctant to talk every time you see him.”

“I don’t like him.” Aiden lowered his head, “He never really seems to consider me as his

son.”

“…Emmett doesn’t like you?”

Then why did he insist on having a child with me?

“I’m not sure if he likes me, but he rarely has time to be with me. I only see him a few

times a year. I spend most of my time with grandma.”

Clara’s heart ached. She bent down and hugged her son, “It’s all my fault! It’s all my

responsibility! I’m sorry for making you grow up in such an

environment”

“Mom, you don’t need to blame everything on yourself, I know you’re scared of dad too.”
