Chapter 307

But she’s still not sure if she’s knocked up or not. Hopefully not, then all her worries would be for nothing.

Clara slipped in quietly and locked the door behind her.

That was the longest five minutes of her life..

The first line showed up pretty quickly.

But, thank God, there was only one line.

Clara leaned against the wall, took a deep breath, and hid in the restroom to avoid being spotted.

She quickly cleaned up, tossed the test stick into the trash can, and hightailed it out of there. Just as she was

heading for the office door, she heard the secretary calling her name.

“Clara, Mr. Melendez is asking for you.”

“Is he on break?”

“Not usually, but Mr. Melendez says he’s missing you.” The secretary chuckled, teasing in a low voice, “Did you put

Mr. Melendez under your spell or something? Even during meetings, he wants to see you, get some alone time.”

Clara shot him a glare, blushing, “If you keep teasing me, I’m gonna tell Mr. Melendez you’re harassing me.”

Hearing this, the secretary immediately raised his hands in surrender, “Don’t do that! Mr. Melendez might kick me

out of the company, and you’re his favorite now. I’m sorry. I won’t tease you anymore, okay?”

“I was just joking. Why would I actually tell him? Where is he? I’ll go now.”

“He’s in the lounge next to the conference room; you should hurry, there isn’t much time left. Don’t let Mr.

Melendez wait.”

Clara nodded, adjusted her clothes, and headed forward.

At the door, she needed some mental prep. Otherwise she felt a bit guilty.

She can’t let Emmett find out she used a pregnancy test.

But then again, even if he found out, it wouldn’t matter. She wasn’t pregnant. What’s there to be scared of?

She knocked on the door, and when she heard Emmett’s voice, she walked in. But before she could react, she was

pulled into a hug.

“Ah!”

Clara yelped in surprise, calming down only after catching a whiff of Emmett’s scent. “Why’d you scare me like

that?”

“What, thought it was some other guy?”

“No, you’re overthinking! Anyone would be startled by such action.”

Emmett didn’t want to hear any of that, and he silenced her with a kiss.

Clara squirmed a bit but was cornered and couldn’t move!

Other than accepting his irresistible passion, she couldn’t do anything else.

The kiss ended.

Emmett wiped his mouth with satisfaction, “I’m swamped right now, but I’ll try to finish everything during office

hours, then take you to see the new house.”

Clara’s lipstick was smeared all over her face. She quickly wiped it off, glaring at him playfully.

“Can you not do this at the office? If others see, they might think I’m seducing you since they don’t know about us!”

“What’s there to be scared of? If they find out, they find out! I don’t care; you’re the one who’s too conscious about

it.”

“I’m still learning in the design department, and I don’t want people to think I’m getting special treatment. If they

find out I’m your wife, they might avoid me and be afraid of offending me. I just want to maintain a normal

relationship with them, learn from each other, and grow together.
