Daddy Mommy’s Getting Remarried by Janie Long -
Chapter 14
Chapter 14
This guy, who an hour ago had told her to stay the hell out of his sight, was now standing in her living room.
Clara’s mind went blank, thinking. “How the hell did Walter show up at my doorstep? I saw him getting into Tamara’s car
Clara was speechless, shocked to the core. She even forgot she was barely dressed, wrapped only in a towel.
Walter slammed the door shut, his eyes scanning the provocative scene before him. The towel barely covered Clara, revealing more than it hid. Her curves and long legs were irresistibly tempting.
“Walking around like that, Clara? Who are you trying to lure? That desperate for a man? Wasn’t I enough for you earlier? Walter bombarded her with questions, his cold eyes fi
filled with anger.
Hearing those unreasonable accusations, Clara thought Walter was intolerable. Then seeing him soaked through, she realized he had also been caught in
the rain.
“Who I’m waiting for is none of your damn business,” Clara retorted, casting a nervous glance toward the living room. “What do you want?”
Marlie was out cold on the blanket, her sweet face a picture of innocence, albeit with a touch of sickly pallor.
Clara rushed over, scooping Marlie up to take her to bed, almost dropping her towel in the process.
She had no choice but to clutch at it, trying to maintain some decency, though her actions only served to fan the flames of temptation further.
Walter’s eyes tightened, his jaw working. He was well aware of her appeal. A normal guy would’ve been drawn in, but the mere thought of her with another man snuffed out his desire, turning it cold.
After tucking Marlic in, Clara ditched the towel for a robe and reemerged.
Walter glanced into the room, querying, “Marlie asleep?”
Clara stood guard at the door, shooting back, “What the hell are you up to?”
Marlie hadn’t been out of the hospital for more than two years since her birth. Walter’s visits had dwindled until he stopped altogether. It had been a while since he last saw Marlie.
“You have got no right to Marlie. I’m taking her,” he declared, voice, cold as ice.
Clara felt like she’d been hit by lightning.
“I’ve signed the damn divorce agreement. We settled on terms. How can you just flip the script?” she said wildly.
Suddenly, Walter shoved her against the wall, his leg blocking any escape. “Sure, you signed. But I didn’t. I can take Marlie anytime I want.” He sneered.
Clara was in disbelief, her emotions a whirlwind “What does this mean? The signing was supposed to end it all. Now he is saying he didn’t sign and wants to fight for custody?”
She knew deep down, in a legal fight over custody, she’d lose.
Walter, you’ve got someone new. I let you have M. Moss,” she spat, biting back anger for Marlie’s sake. “What more do you want?”
You know about her?” he asked, eyebrow cocked.

“Oh, come on, it’s everywhere, You think I’m blind?” Clara shot back, feeling like the world’s biggest fool.
