Your Love Is But a Dream (Clara and Wren) novel Chapter 262

"Hello," the officer greeted Katrina and asked, "What happened in the car earlier? Do you know each other?"

Katrina was about to speak when Robert, afraid she might say something reckless, quickly stepped forward to explain, "We know each other. She's our employer's wife. Earlier in the car—"

"I'm asking her, not you." The officer shot Robert a warning look. Then, he turned to Katrina and spoke in a gentler tone, "It's okay. Just tell the truth. You don't have to worry about anything with us here."

"We…" Katrina murmured.

"Mrs. Zachman!" Robert stared at her anxiously.

Katrina glanced at him before finishing her sentence, "We know each other."

Robert finally breathed a sigh of relief at that.

But before he could fully relax, Katrina spoke up again, "They barged into my home without my permission. Then, they took my phone and tried to abduct me and restricted my freedom."

"I have no idea where they were planning to take me. I had no choice and had to take a risk to save myself. I'm sorry for the trouble," she said apologetically, offering the officer a small smile.

She really had no other choice but to gamble in the heat of the moment. Either she would attract the attention of the police or passersby, or the bodyguards wouldn't dare hurt her and would let her go.

Either way, she made the right bet. At the very least, she was out of immediate danger and no longer in a completely helpless situation.

The bodyguards immediately panicked. The traffic officers too became increasingly wary after hearing Katrina's statement. Their gazes shifted toward the bodyguards, now filled with suspicion and caution.

Robert's expression was grim as he explained, "Mrs. Zachman, we were only following orders from Mr. Zachman to bring you back. We never meant to offend you, let alone abduct you…"

"I never agreed to go with you! You dragged me out of my own home!" Katrina snapped impatiently.
