Two Times the Charm

Chapter 107

Emmett scowled. “Let’s let this one slide, but there better not be a next time! I don’t want my girl pleading for other guys”

Clara quickly nodded, “Elio and I are just friends, so I promise I won’t plead for any other guys”

Emmelt studied her face, then suddenly got up and walked toward her

Startled, Clara took a few steps back, “Wha- what’s going on?”

“Since I agreed to let Elio off the hook, you should also do something for me in return, right?”

“Mr. Melendez, I don’t get what you’re saying

“Mr. Melendez?”

Suddenly, Emmett backed her into a corner, his lips almost touching her cheek.

“We’ve been married for a while now, maybe we should do what married couples are supposed to do?”

Clara’s heart was racing, almost leaping out of her throat.

“Aren’t we… a marriage of convenience?”

“Let’s see if you dare to pretend now”

Clara suddenly felt trapped.

Was she supposed to take things further with Emmett?

She abruptly pushed him away.

“Mr. Melendez, I think there might be a misunderstanding. There’s no way anything can happen between us. I… I don’t want a boyfriend

“I’m your husband, not your boyfriend”

Thinking of that night all those years ago made Clara tremble all over.

It was a night she didn’t want to remember but couldn’t forget.

“No way, I have a psychological block about that, I… I can’t do it!” Clara turned to run.

Emmett grabbed her arm.

“Is it because of your ex–husband?”

Clara blinked and nodded, “Yes.”

“Did he abuse you?” As soon as Emmett asked this, his brows furrowed.

The idea of Clara being intimate with other men made him uncomfortable.

But he hadn’t known her back then. It wasn’t her fault, and he had no right to be angry.

“Not exactly….I just have a mental block! I’m sorry if that’s what you need, I really can’t provide it!” Clara said boldly. “I understand you have needs, but can’t you find another woman?”

“If I find another woman, you won’t be mad?”

Clara shook her head vigorously. “Why would I be mad? I wouldn’t be mad at all!”

She was even willing to divorce Emmett immediately, not wanting to hinder his marital life.

But then Emmett’s face changed!

*Clara“”

His low grow! made Clara shudder and her ears rang

“You wouldn’t care if I was with any other woman?!”

Emmett’s eyes were practically shooting flames, but Clara still didn’t understand why he was angry

Don’t all men have needs?

She was being understanding, what was he unhappy about?

“Calm down! If you have any preferences, just tell me! I can help you find whoever you want!”

Emmett clenched his fists

“I don’t want any other woman, I just want you!”

Emmett pulled Clara in, planting a kiss on her lips right away.

Caught off guard, Clara forgot to push him away

Suddenly, Emmett let go of her lips, leaving a strange blush on her cheek.

“You can go now I’ll get close to you again when you’re ready.” Emmett
