Two Times the Charm (Clara and Emmett) novel Chapter 180

Clara touched the two kids helplessly, and said, "Okay, you guys should go now! I know you're good kids, but I don't want to upset your grandma. If she doesn't like you guys hanging around me right now, just listen to her."

Aiden frowned, "No, I like you."

Alex quickly chimed in, "Me too! I don't want Grandma, I want to be with you!"

"My darlings, I know you like me very much, but..."

"I'll talk to grandma for you! You don't have to worry about this!"

Alex didn't really understand, but he nodded and said, "Yes, yes, I'll listen to Aiden, I'll help Aiden."

Clara laughed helplessly, "Seeing you guys are so harmonious, makes me feel satisfied! Just try your best, don't make things difficult for your grandma or yourselves."

"Okay!"

A week later, the purchased lumber officially arrived at the construction site.

Clara was quite pleased about this. It was her first time being involved in the company's procurement. If everything went well, that would be great, but if something went wrong...

She would be very self-blaming.

At the CEO's office, Emmett reminded her in a serious tone, "Clara, the lumber situation is all sorted out. You can stop worrying about it."

These past few days, Clara would be in the office whenever she had some free time, with Emmett personally teaching her how to draw design plans.

She was still not cut out for this line of work, as her thinking was still far from sufficient.

"You can take it slow. Once you're more adept, I can let you try managing a branch office. I think you have potential."

Clara put down her pen, "Don't flatter me. I don't even think I have any talents! All I can do is draw some plans, but you keep saying my designs are not feasible in many aspects."

"Why do you always listen to me about your negatives? I've also pointed out your strengths." Emmett frowned, "Your designs have more pros than cons. Don't just listen to criticisms."

Clara gave an awkward laugh, "Oh, I see."

"Did... my mom cause you any trouble today?" Emmett asked, feeling a little uneasy at the thought of his mother's look that morning.
