Your Love Is But a Dream (Clara and Wren) novel Chapter 153

Chapter 153 

When patiently dried every strand of Clara’s hair before finally setting down the blow dryer. 

Looking at the girl in his arms, his gaze softened, and he couldn’t resist leaning down to place a gentle kiss on her forehead 

“Clara, what am I going to do with you?” 

After finishing her rounds and finding nothing else to do, the nurse leaned on the desk in the hall, scrolling through her phone. The sound of the glass doors being forcefully pushed open and hurried footsteps suddenly broke the silence. 

Startled, she instinctively looked up. Betore she could clearly make out who had entered, the sound of panting reached her ears. 

“Nurse, was there a girl brought in tonight after drowning? A man brought her here. She’s very beautiful.” 

Alexander leaned heavily on the desk with both hands. Despite the cold weather, fine beads of sweat coveted his forehead. He had no means of transportation and had run all the way from Moonbay Village to town. 

At such a late hour, no matter how distrustful Wren might have been of the town hospital’s medical capabilities, this would still be his first choice. 

Driving to the city would take at least an hour and a half. Wren would never take that risk with Clara’s life.

Alexander’s face showed a flicker of surprise. He hurriedly turned his head, dodging her intense gaze. 

Even in such a remote place, he was still being recognized. 

This was the reason why, during his past encounters with Clara, he had believed she was deliberately trying to get close to him. 

However, as they spent more time together, he realized Clara truly had no idea who he was. From the beginning, it had all been his misunderstanding. 

In his worry for Clara’s safety, he had rushed over and forgotten to wear his mask. 

Being recognized, Alexander’s expression darkened slightly. This was going to be troublesome. 

He pulled up the hood of his jacket and spoke in an indifferent tone. “You’ve got the wrong person. I’m not who you think I am.” 

The nurse froze, her excitement dampened. Had she really mistaken him for someone else? His reaction made the nurse second–guess herself,
