Chapter 134

Seeing everyone egging her on, Kai felt like she had no choice but to step forward and say hello, even if she didnโ€™t want to. After all, when she had arrived at the university a few days earlier, Kara had boasted to her classmates that she was the cousin of Kieranโ€™s fiancรฉe. But her classmates were all genuine elites and heiresses, and even if they werenโ€™t on the level of Kieran and the Dawson family, they were all from wealthy backgrounds. Those in her class didnโ€™t respect Kara, who had come from a small town to a big city: If she didnโ€™t greet Kieran, wouldnโ€™t it be just like admitting she had been lying all this time?

With this thought, Kara moved forward as if possessed. When she saw Kieran looking her way, her heart skipped a beat. In no time, Jarrett was by her side. โ€œYouโ€™re Ms. Orson, correct? Mr. Sutton wants to have a chat with you.โ€

Ri was stunned by this sudden invitation. Those behind her were surprised to see Kieran wanting to meet Kara, astonishment written all over their faces. Could it be everything Kara said was true? Did she get in because of Kieran?

Feeling the gazes around her, Kara straightened her back, a hint of pride in her posture. โ€œOkay, Iโ€™ll come.โ€

Following Jarrett toward Kieran, she caught the attention of many. Karaโ€™s outfit was like Eloiseโ€™s, so people speculated about her identity and how she had gotten a personal audience with Kieran.

โ€œMr. Suttonโ€ฆโ€ When Kara looked at Kieran, she felt a bit nervous, her cheeks flushing as she spoke. But Kieran didnโ€™t seem interested in catching up. He frowned and asked, โ€œWhereโ€™s Freya?โ€

Disappointment crossed Karaโ€™s eyes when she heard Kieran had called her over to ask about Freya. But noticing the crowd of onlookers, Kara quickly concocted a plan. She stepped closer to Kieran and suggested, โ€œMr. Sutton, many people are watching here. Maybe we could find a quieter place to talk? I wouldnโ€™t want to cause a scene at the university.โ€

Karaโ€™s eyes pleaded with him. Thinking about what Freya had gone through at the university, Kieran uncharacteristically agreed, โ€œFollow me.โ€

When she saw Kieran give the thumbs-up, Kara couldnโ€™t keep her happiness a secret and tagged along right away. Seeing Kara able to leave with Kieran, her classmates couldnโ€™t hide their envy.

โ€œIt seems everything Kara said was true! Mr. Sutton has introduced herโ€ฆโ€

โ€œMr. Sutton is usually standoffish. Aside from Eloise, heโ€™s never been this close to anyone.โ€

โ€œCould it be that Kara and Mr. Suttonโ€ฆโ€

Some began speculating about Kara and Kieranโ€™s relationship, while one girl scoffed, โ€œPlease! Isnโ€™t she Freyaโ€™s cousin? I guess sheโ€™s only a poor relative of the Dawson family!โ€

โ€œWhat do you know? This circle is chaotic. We all know how much Mr. Sutton dislikes Freya, but look at how much nicer he is to Kara!โ€ Meanwhile, Luna was about to leave when she overheard a few people discussing Kara. Frowning, she thought, โ€œKara? Did Kara leave with Kieran? No, I need to tell Reya quickly!โ€

Outside Summit University, Kieran had Kara step into his car. This was the first time Kara had ever been in such a fancy car, and she was totally awestruck by the inside. Was this what the good life was like?
