Your Love Is But a Dream (Clara and Wren) novel Chapter 194

Chapter 194 

If we want to secure our place in the Zachman family, we can’t pin all our hopes on Wren Have you thought about what to do if he comes back and still refuses to 

Imany me! 

“This…” Shirley was momentarily stunned, frowning “But you have Mr. Zachman on your side. He promised you’d get an explanation. 

“But Mom, haven’t you noticed? Even Mr. Zachman has changed. You know how attentive he used to be to you. Ever since Katrina brought up the divorce, his focus has clearly shifted to her 

“Take this recent business trip, for example. How many times in the past d he’d still bring back plenty of gifts for you. 

did he go on a trip without asking if you wanted to join him first? Even if you didn’t go, 

“But this time, did he come back looking for you? He didn’t even ask about you. Can you really be so sure he hasn’t had a change of heart?” 

Shirley’s face grew paler with every word Ivy spoke. She had always been confident, never imagining Carlisle would care about Katrina 

Katrina was past her stand–in, a substitute Carlisle married only because he couldn’t have her. 

Why would he care about a replacement? Besides, with Carlisle’s status and wealth, he could have any young and beautiful woman he wanted. Countless women would gladly throw themselves at him if he gave them a chance. 

But he had never shown interest in any of those women. On the contrary, as soon as he heard about her divorce, he came to her without hesitation and brought her back to the Zachman family, 

Although she had taken good care of herself over the years, she couldn’t compare to 20–year–old girls anymore. Worse yet, she couldn’t have children. 

That said, Carlisle still liked her. He genuinely liked her. 

Perhaps it was partly because of the regret and frustration of not being able to marry her back then, mixed with the guilt of abandoning her to marry someone else. Whatever the reason, it proved that Shirley still held a place in his heart. 

But now, Ivy’s words dredged up the little signs she had ignored. The more she thought about it, the more terrified she became. 

For years, she had grown accustomed to her comfortable life. She couldn’t imagine what she would do if he took away his affection and fell for another woman. 

Ivy saw the rear on her mother’s face She stood up, took Shirley’s cold hands in hers, and let the ambition in her eyes show without restrain. 

“Mom, Wren is drawn to that batch, Clara. And now, Katrina has captured Mr. Zachman’s attention. This is clearly a scheme they’ve planned together to take everything from us. 

“Forget about Wren for now. Mr. Zachman still has feelings for you, but feelings are unreliable. They can change so easily. What if Katrina uses another trick to seduce him and gets pregnant with his child? Where would we stand in the Zachman family then?”
