Your Love Is But a Dream

Chapter 258

"I'm an adult now, not a child who needs to rely on anyone to survive," Clara said. "Besides, you don't even need me to keep track of my whereabouts, do you?"

He knew Clara hated this kind of thing. It was the reason why he hadn't run background checks on everyone around her when he came looking for her.

Not until she had been in danger.

When he couldn't find out who was behind it, he turned to investigate the people around her, but it still led nowhere.

Clara remained silent. She knew Wren had done all this for her, but his concern had come too late. It wasn't what she wanted anymore.
