Two Times the Charm

Chapter 407

“I know you don’t want me to show up at the Melendez household; let alone in front of Emmett! So, you plot and scheme. You better figure out a way for me to leave the Melendez family as soon as possible then!” Property belongs to Nôvel(D)r/ama.Org.

Leah watched Clara’s facial expressions closely, noting that she didn’t seem to be lying. With a cold laugh, she retorted, “I’ll come up with a solution, but don’t you dare play any tricks?”

Then she pulled out a packet of white powder from her pocket, “Here, this is the antidote! Give it to Emmett to drink. I don’t care how you do it, but you better not let him find out! Because this antidote isn’t a one-time cure, if Emmett finds out, there won’t be a next time!”

Clara quickly reached out to take the antidote, cradling it carefully in her hands. “When are you planning to fully cure Emmett?”

“That depends on my mood. Whenever he falls in love with me, that’s when he’ll get the final antidote.” Leah smirked, “So don’t get your hopes up. The title of Mrs. Melendez is mine alone. You’ve lost your chance forever!”

Clara pursed her lips, unable to stand the sight of Leah’s face any longer.

It was a face she had once trusted, even considered as a friend’s. But it was also that face that had brought her to such a state, even involving Emmett!

“What about… my two children? What’s your plan for them to leave the Melendez family and come back to me?”

“Are you rushing me now? Don’t forget your place. Look at your maid’s outfit, it suits you! The kids are an obstacle to me, I’ll definitely remove them. But I can’t guarantee when!”

Clara frowned. Just as she had suspected, Leah wasn’t going to keep her promises. Her words held no credibility.

“After all, I still need them. In Sophia’s eyes, they are my biological children! Look at how well she treats me. Even before Emmett and I are married, she’s willing to let me rest here. As for you, you have to return to your rightful place. Don’t dream too high, or the fall will hurt!”

Just as Clara opened her mouth to retort, Leah suddenly collapsed in front of her!

Instinctively, Clara reached out to catch Leah, only to be met by Sophia’s harsh voice!

“Clara, what are you doing here? What were you planning to do with my future daughter-in-law?”

Clara froze, realizing what had happened, “I didn’t push her…”

Sophia quickly moved to Leah’s side, helping her up and berating Clara, “There’s only the two of you here. If you didn’t push her, did she fall on her own? Clara, what are your intentions? You’ve betrayed my son, and you still have the nerve to show up at the Melendez’s?!”

Leah, however, played innocent and even pretended to be magnanimous, “Sophia, don’t blame her anymore! Maybe I just lost my footing, I believe she didn’t mean

it!”

“Don’t defend her! She’s not worth it! This woman is two-faced. I’ve seen her true colors for a long time!” Sophia spat out harshly, holding Leah’s hand tightly, “On one hand, she’s deceiving my son. On the other, she’s flirting with other men. I’ve seen a lot of bitches in my life, but one as cunning and calculating as her is a first!”
