Two Times the Charm

Chapter 233

Leah strolled over with a grin and gave Elio a light pat on the shoulder, “Didn’t I make myself clear? You don’t trust me at all, do you?”

Elio shrugged off her hand, “Should I trust you? I did once, let you help me! But what did you do?”

“What did I do?” Leah held out her hands, “I helped you get what you wanted! I brought you and Clara together, isn’t that a good thing for you?”

“I didn’t plan on getting Clara this way! I love her, that’s true, but I want her to love me genuinely, to want to be with me!”

“Since when is life so perfect?” Leah faced his accusation without a care, “If Clara were an ordinary woman, maybe, but she’s the mother of Emmett’s child! She’s far from ordinary, and you’re no Emmett! Without a few tricks up your sleeve, you’ll never get close to Clara.”

Elio abruptly turned to leave, but Leah, in her high heels, quickly stepped in front of him.

“I’ll remind you, if you spill my plan to Clara, you’ll be held responsible!”,

“Don’t believe me? Try it!” Leah laughed, “Your parents are in my hands now.”

Elio was stunned, “You kidnapped them?!” No wonder they said they were going on vacation and then disappeared! He thought they had gone somewhere with no signal or were having too much fun to see his messages.

“You’ve got it all wrong! I didn’t kidnap them, I merely invited them over!” Leah laughed, “Don’t worry, I’ll treat them well! As long as my plan succeeds, I’ll remember that I am of the Milburn family, bearing the Milburn blood.”

“You…” Elio pointed at her, but Leah lowered his hand, “Stop yelling! Clara will be here soon, have you thought about what you’re going to say to her?”

“I think your chances of convincing Clara to leave Emmett are slim, but you want to try! I’m just reminding you not to let Clara find out anything!” Content property of NôvelDra/ma.Org.

“You’re just scared of Emmett finding out about this, aren’t you? You know how much he cares about Clara! Leah, isn’t stealing someone’s man thrilling?”

Leah suddenly clapped her hands and laughed excitedly, “Yes! It’s exhilarating! Just thinking about it makes me happy! I won Emmett over with my cunning.I landed the top-notch man all women dream of! Don’t you think I’m awesome?”

“I think you need to check yourself into a mental hospital.”

“My silly brother, I think you need to see a psychiatrist even more! What kind of man gives up the woman he loves? Only you, I guess. One day you’ll regret this.”

Elio glared at her, but Leah didn’t care.

“Taking such risks, you’ll only end up hurting yourself.” With that, he turned and left.

Leah picked up her wine glass, touched up her lipstick, then let go, the glass shattering on the floor…

“I refuse to believe that Clara can outdo me! There’s nothing I, Leah, want that I can’t get!”

And that included men.
