Chapter 356
But then again, Clara thought, Elio had a point. What would happen to the kids if she was not around?
That was her biggest worry in this world. If it wasn’t for Leah, she wouldn’t worry about Aiden and Alex.
But now, with Leah’s plan about to succeed, if that formula was found, Emmett would be entirely under her control…
Thinking about this, Clara was worried for her two boys.
Her own safety didn’t matter anymore. She couldn’t let her sons get caught up in adult conflicts.
Now, here she was, locked up, unable to do anything. She could only rely on Elio.
“Don’t worry, I’ll definitely help you with this!”
Elio swallowed back all the words he was about to say, a glimmer of hope kindling in his heart. This content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.
If Clara went into hiding with the boys, he would be the only one who knew it.
Would life go back to how it was then?
Just him, Clara, and the kids, like a family, looking out for each other, caring for each other.
He wanted to be with Clara, even if he never won her heart, even if she would never accept him, at least she wouldn’t belong to any other man. That was enough!
Emmett immediately drove back to the Melendez family.
Entering the courtyard, he saw his parents and their eyes were red.
Patrick Melendez was scolding his wife. Seeing his son return, he stopped and walked over.
“Son, any news from your end? Have you found Aiden and Alex?”
Emmett frowned, shaking his head. “No, Matt is out looking with a team, but there’s no news yet…”
Hearing this, Patrick angrily turned back to scold Sophia. “This is all because of you I told you not to do this! Our family was doing just fine. Why do you always have to stir up trouble?”
Sophia lowered her head as she said, “I… I was just thinking of the kids. I thought Clara, as their stepmother, would never compare to having their real mother around. That’s why I…”
“Now, are you satisfied?! What were you thinking? Didn’t you think about this? The kids are gone! This is your doing! Did you really see Clara mistreating the kids?”
Emmett glanced at his mother, not even willing to say another word.
Sophia felt wronged. She gritted her teeth and said, “Why are you all blaming me? Isn’t this all because of Clara? I’ve made it clear I can’t stand her. If she had any self-awareness, she would have left my son a long time ago!”
“What use is it? As long as the four of them are happy, that’s all that matters!”
Sophia furrowed her brow. “If it wasn’t for Clara, Aiden and Alex wouldn’t have run away from home, and they wouldn’t be missing. Patrick, you’re my husband! Why are you defending this outsider, Clara?”
“Am I defending her? I just want you to wake up! I really don’t know what you’re thinking all day! Can you focus your energy on something other than causing trouble?”
Emmett listened to his parents arguing, not wanting to interrupt.
Suddenly, his phone rang. It was Matt.
Emmett immediately answered.
