Your Love Is But a Dream (Clara and Wren) novel Chapter 125

Ivy felt a twinge of impatience seeing Angie's stubborn attitude, and she knew that staying here would only lead to more humiliation from Penny and her friends.

If she didn't have Wren to back her up, she couldn't afford to offend any of these women, given their influential family backgrounds. It was better to leave quickly now to avoid making the situation even more awkward.

Ivy shook her head and said nothing more. Her face was pale as she said, "I'm not feeling too well. Let's go to another restaurant for lunch."

Although Angie felt displeased deep down, she saw the troubled expression on Ivy's face. She could only swallow her words reluctantly.

"Fine. Let's go somewhere else. The air in this place is horrible, and staying here for a meal would just make me sick," she said. With that, Angie dragged Ivy out of the restaurant.

Angie was still fuming after they left the restaurant. She rambled, "Such snobs looking down on others! Don't listen to them, Ivy. I've seen with my own eyes how much Wren cares for you. He'll definitely marry you."

Ivy lowered her eyes despondently, staying silent for a moment before she looked up at Angie with red-rimmed eyes. "Thank you for standing up for me, Angie. I'm sorry for dragging you into this and making you go through that with me today."

Angie felt heartbroken for Ivy and hugged her arm. "We're friends, so what are you apologizing for?"

As she spoke, there was some hesitation in her tone. "I never asked you, but where did Wren go? How could he not show up for such an important event like his own engagement?"

Ivy chewed on her lip, struggling internally before finally speaking, "It might… have something to do with Clara."
