Chapter 254
Looking at Wren's eyes, Ryan felt a shiver down his spine. Instinctively, he
glanced at Clara. As he was about to say something, Wren shifted a step to the right, blocking his view.
With no other choice, Ryan left with him.
"Just stay here. I'll be back soon." Wren's expression softened as he spoke to Clara, his voice calm and
reassuring.
He bent down, picked up the things Ryan had brought, then followed him out, closing the door behind him.
Clara hesitated for a moment but decided to do as Wren said, staying put instead of following.
The moment Ryan stepped out of the room, he picked up his pace, moving as quickly as possible. A deep unease
settled in his gut, urging him to put as much distance between himself and Wren as possible.
Watching him rush away, Wren could feel that he was feeling diffident. Without hesitation, he strode forward and
cornered Ryan in the stairwell.
Ryan hadn't expected Wren to catch up so fast. His grip on the railing tightened, fingers pressing hard against
the metal as he tried to mask his unease.
Forcing a casual tone, he pretended not to recognize Wren. "Mr. Salford, is there something else you need?"
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWren didn't acknowledge the feigned politeness. His gaze remained cold as he looked at Ryan, throwing his
belongings at his feet. "Take your things and leave."
Ryan's gaze darkened as he watched the bouquet and fruit basket he had carefully selected get tossed to the
ground.
With the weight of what had just happened hanging over him, he held his frustration back. He bent down,
reaching for the bouquet.
But before he could touch it, Wren stepped forward, crushing the delicate white roses beneath his shoe. In that
instant, the petals scattered across the floor.
With a cold expression, Ryan had no choice but to watch him stepping on the flowers.
If Wren remembered correctly, white roses symbolized a deep, possessive desire. Ryan had the audacity to bring
those to Clara?
The possessiveness Wren had kept buried threatened to erupt all at once. No one had the right to claim Clara,
especially not Ryan, who wasn't even worth her notice.
Ryan felt humiliated. As he slowly got up, his expression turned grim. "What do you mean by that? Even if you're
Ms. Salford's brother, that doesn't give you the right to insult people!"
Wren let out a cold laugh.
"Insult?" He chuckled, and his eyes

and if you weren't her colleague, I'd show you what real humiliation looks like." Content
