Chapter 222

She’d given it some thought. Unless the biological mother of the kids returned, she would freak out no

matter which woman Emmett brought back. Now Clara’s anxious expression didn’t seem to be a

pretense. As long as one occasionally reminded her, she should also treat the children well.

“Gran?” Alex nudged her cautiously and whispered, “Could you stop giving mom a hard time? She

really loves us!”

Sophia got a jolt in her heart and pulled Alex into her arms.

“Alright! Gran promises, as long as Clara doesn’t lash out or bully you guys, I won’t give her a hard time

anymore, okay?”

Alex nodded and broke into a smile, “That’s awesome! I gotta tell Aiden this ASAP!”

Sophia was a bit puzzled by this “Are you and your Aiden up to something?”

“No! What could we possibly be planning? Gran, I have no idea what you’re talking about, Alex, though

not particularly gifted in other areas, was an expert at playing dumb

Sophia could only let out a sigh of resignation. The suspicion against Clara had stirred up a mess at

home. She was actually exhausted! She’d wanted to put some pressure on Clara, but then her sons

and grandsons all turned against her. Maybe she was the problem. “Good boy, let’s pray together that

Aiden’s okay”

“Don’t worry, Gran, once you stop giving mom a hard time, Aiden will recover soon!” Aiden had

deliberately hurt himself, but Alex swallowed the rest of his words. Gran couldn’t know about this

After a while, the doctor came out

Seeing the anxious family gathered at the door, he smiled, “Don’t worry, the and bandaged it up”

fine! Just a minor injury. I’ve already cleaned the wound

“But I just saw my son unconscious Clara grabbed the doctor’s arm, “Is that not a problem?”

The doctor paused and replied, “I think the boy either has a bit of fainting spell from the sight of blood,

or he might be faking it to avoid homework! We’ve done a thorough check and found no issues. You

can rest assured”

Hearing the doctors words, Clara finally breathed a sigh of relief

Sophia came over, puzzled, “Aiden has never hated homework, so he wouldn’t fake it to get out of that,

but I don’t remember Aiden ever fainting at the sight of blood” He’d been injured around her before, but

rd never seen him faint

“It might be some problem that recently developed.” Clara reassured Sophia. ‘Don’t worry, the doctor

said he’s fine, so he must be.” Sophia nodded, shot Clara a glance, and stayed silent

Emmett glanced at them both, sensing his mother’s concession This outcome was not too bad! It

seemed there was a silver lining to his son’s injury after all

At the hotel, Leah had prepared some delicacies. The table was laden with Elio’s favorite food and his

beloved red wine.

“Elio, your trip back home really wasn’t easy, and since Clara couldnt accompany you, how about I join

you for a drink? Would you

mind?”
