Your Love Is But a Dream

Chapter 157

“The other thing is that I want you to find out whether her talling into the water was truly an accident after she wakes up,” Wren said,

“Ask her if she’s encountered anyone unusual or noticed anything out of the ordinary since she and here I can’t feel at ease leaving her here until I know for sure what happened.”

Wren had always known that Clara was a stubborn girl. Once she decided on something, she would see it through no matter what. Just like her feelings for him back then.

Despite his rejection and coldness, she had still loved him with the intensity at a blazing fire, relentlessly moving closer to him. It wasn’t until he completely shattered her hopes and broke her heart that she finally gave up

She had chosen to come to Longfield to work as a volunteer teacher. Until she completed her mission, she wouldn’t give up or leave either. Since she refused to leave, he had no choice but to help her in every way he could.

Alexander nodded, acknowledging the importance of clarifying the matter.

“Alright, I’ll ask her for you. But I won’t be to her. If she figures out it was you who saved her, the most I can do is stay silent.”

“As long as you take care of her and find out what I need to know, you don’t have to worry about anything else. I’ll handle the rest.”

“It better be that way,” Alexander replied indifferently.

Then he turned his gaze toward the door. “Can I go in and see her now?”

A flash of reluctance appeared in Wren’s eyes, but he eventually nodded.

“She’s still unconscious. Be quiet.”

“I know,” Alexander said, then humed and carefully opened the door, stepping into the room.

“Yes. I don’t have any evidence, but my instincts tell me it’s not that simple. Clara isn’t the type of person to act recklessly. It’s unlikely she would just ride her bike straight into a pond without reason. There
