Your Love Is But a Dream (Clara and Wren) novel Chapter 154

Chapter 154 

“Thank you.” Alexander said, following behind the nurse 

They walked to the back of the building. The nurse pointed to a lit room en the second floor. “It’s that one I can’t leave the front desk for too long, so you’ll have to go up by 

The nurse observed his anxious demeanor and sighed with a trace of envy as Alexander followed her gaze, counted the room numbers, and immediately quickened his pace up the 

Inside the ward, Wren observed the IV drip nearing empty. He got up, removed the used bag, and skillfully replaced it with a new one 

TV 

In the past, whenever cara tell ill, he handled everything himself. It had become second nature to him. After adjusting the drip, he leaned over and tucked Clara’s blanket more securely 

Outside, a sudden knock on the door interrupted the quiet Wren assumed it was the nurse and went to open the door. Seeing Alexander standing outside, he froze for a second. His expression shitted subtly, turning more guarded. “What are you doing here?” 

“How is she?” Alexander asked, leaning slightly to peer past Wren into the ward. 

When moved to block his line of sight. 

“She hasn’t woken up yet. The doctor said she’s fine,” 

-Wren replied. 

He paused briefly before adding with an unreadable tone, “But I’m surprised that the young master of the Sinclair family would be so concerned about a girl he just met.” 

He stepped forward, narrowing the distance between them. “You went out specifically to find her, didn’t you? How did you guess that something would happen to dara?” 

Alexander reflexively stepped back, his movements almost instinctive. With a swift backward motion, Wren shut the door behind him. 

The two men were almost the same height, but Wren, with his experience managing the Zachman family business, exuded the authoritative air of someone in control. Alexander could feel the pressure instantly. 

However, Alexander, having grown up in the world of high society, was no stranger to confrontation. He stood his ground without flinching. 

“This doesn’t seem to concern you, does it, Mr.Zachman?” 

The atmosphere between then grew tense, as if the very air carried a spark waiting to ignite. 

Wren let out a cold laugh. “Clara is my responsibility. Her business is my business. Alexander, I don’t have anything against you, but I need to know the intentions of someone staying close to my sister. If I can’t be certain, I won’t feel comfortable letting her interact with you. Don’t you think that’s fair?” 

The first time Wren saw Alexander at Clara’s house, he immediately ordered an investigation into his background. Although nothing suspicious had turned up, he still wasn’t reassured about Alexander’s presence. 

“It seems like the person Clara doesn’t want to deal with is you, Mr. Zachman. What do you think she’d do if she found out you’ve been lying to her? That you never actually lett Larkston Alexander said with a faint smirk. His hands were casually stuffed into his pockets as he tilted his head 

Wren’s expression darkened instantly. “What are you talking about?! 

“Nothing much. I’m just worried about Clara. I wanted to check on her and make sure she was safe. You were the one who started questioning me,” Alexander replied. His teasing expression faded into our of composure 

When fell silent for a moment. He raised a hand to pinch the bridge of his nose, his face betraying a trace of exhaustion. 

“My apologies. I just want to figure out if what happened tonight was really an accident.” 

Alexander froze, then narrowed his eyes. “Are you saying someone tried to harm her? 

Wren hesitated for a couple of seconds before nodding “I can’t rule out the possibility. Clara has been here for less than a month. Other than you, the only people she interacts with are a few colleagues from her school. 

“Clara has a very kind personality, she wouldn’t easily make enemies with anyone, but tonight’s incident doesn’t feel like a simple accident to me. 

“Also, I’m curious. You could have stayed in your luxurious lifestyle as a Sinclair family heir. Why did you come to a place like this? And how, of all people, did you happen to meet “And tonight, your timing was quite the coincidence, don’t you think?
