Two Times the Charm (Clara and Emmett) novel Chapter 470

Newell’s wife wasn't even bothering to pay attention to her husband, as the figure he'd mentioned earlier kept replaying in her mind.

Fifty million dollars!

That was a staggering sum!

If only... if only that money could be hers alone. Then she wouldn't have to kowtow to Newell's whims ever again.

She could give her family back home as much as she pleased...

...

In the hospital room, Emmett was the very picture of intensity, his handsome face set in concentration as he dealt with corporate affairs.

He had wanted to head straight to the office, but Sophia had clung to him, a mess of tears and sniffles, begging him not to leave her side in the hospital.

Left with little choice, Emmett had Ricardo come to the hospital to discuss the new project.

"Any word on the Milburns lately?" Emmett asked once Sophia had left the room.

"No, Elio's practically vanished. Even the hospitals he used to work with can't get a hold of him," Ricardo replied before glancing at Emmett. "Mr. Melendez, do you really... believe there's something between Clara and Elio?"
