DreameNovelChapter 205 Besides, Wrenthought that keeping his substitute teaching a secret wasn't exactly wise-Clara would find out sooner or later.
And now that she already knew he hadn't left, there wasn't much point in hiding anything from her anymore.
What mattered most was whether Nins could be trusted Wren wasn't comfortable entrusting Clara's affairs to a stranger, no matter how well-intentioned she seemed. He needed to make sure Nina wasn't a problem before he considered relying on her.
"I went to your school today and ran into her, "Wren said casually as if it were just a passing comment. "She cup tofirst, and we talked for a bit. Are you two close?" Clara frowned at the question "Why are you suddenly asking about her?" She seemed really concerned when she heard you were sick and said she wanted to visit you in the hospital.

When Nina first approached him, she hadn't known he was the substitute teacher. She had stopped him before that, possibly out of professional rudosity.
But even after he clarified, she had followed up with him. So why had she stopped him in the first place? A wave of faint disgust flickered across Wien's eyes.
"Got it, I'm heading out, Get ssrest. Fler back in the morning "Wren, tomorrow, you Clarastarted, intending to tell him he didn't need to come.
But Wren wasn't giving her the chance, "That's not up for discussion. I'm leaving now.
Before she could protest, he strode out of the room, as it afraid that had a moment longer, she'd tell him outright not to come. Clara stared at the closed door, letting out a barely audible sight.
she then switched off the lights and lay back down.
