Chapter 266

Meanwhile, Freya was back at her apartment with tons in tow. Freya sprawled out on the bed, laptop open, and with the chaos of her new stars' comings, then Lana's excitement. โ€œFreya! Youโ€™ve got to see whatโ€™s happening in our schoolโ€™s newcomerโ€ฆโ€

โ€œWhatโ€™s up?โ€

โ€œJust look!โ€ In a flash, Luna handed her phone to Freya, pointing at a photo of Karen.

โ€œIt is,โ€

Kara was unmistakable, her features clear in the close-up shot.

Luna fumed. โ€œI knew it! That woman is up to no good. Sheโ€™s gunning for yourโ€ฆโ€

โ€œWhat spot?โ€ Freya was puzzled, clueless about what Luna meant.

โ€œOf course, she wants to replace you as Kieranโ€™s fiancรฉe! Look. Everyone in the groupโ€™s saying she was picked up by a Sutton family limo before class today! Pics, or it didnโ€™t happen.โ€

Upon hearing that, Freyaโ€™s interest was piqued. Luna continued, โ€œSince you and Kieran called off your engagement, Karaโ€™s a distant relative at best. Why would the Sutton familyโ€™s limo pick her up? Now, everyoneโ€™s whispering that Mr. Sutton and Kara are together, and thatโ€™s why Kiesen broke it off with you. Itโ€™s infuriating! Isnโ€™t this tarnishing your reputation?โ€

โ€œTarnishing my reputation? If anything, this makes Kieran look bad, not me.โ€

It seemed to Freya that this painted Kieran as the villain. The label of being a jerk was firmly attached to Kieran. Not that Freya ever thought too highly of him, to begin with.

Exasperated, Luna smacked Freya on the head. โ€œAre you joking? Kieran dumped you, Ms. Dawson, for some country bumpkin! How are you supposed to show your face after this? Have you lost your mind?โ€

โ€œDo you think Audrey is foolish? You find this situation ridiculous, so why would Audrey agree to Kieranโ€™s being with Kara? Besides, doesnโ€™t Kieran already have a fiancรฉe? Even if Kieran is fine with these rumors, Ms. Miller wouldnโ€™t stand for it?โ€

โ€œFlavia? Please, havenโ€™t you heard? Kieran publicly ousted her from the Sutton Group. He made it clear that they were never officially together, not before and definitely not in the future!โ€

Hearing this, Freya paused. โ€œReally?โ€

โ€œCross my heart!โ€

โ€œOh noโ€ฆโ€

โ€œNow you realize โ€˜oh noโ€™? Shouldnโ€™t you be storming over to the Sutton family demanding justice?โ€

โ€œNo, what I meant wasโ€ฆโ€ Freya was about to explain how sheโ€™d hoped Kieranโ€™s involvement with Flavia would finally extricate her from the messy love triangle with Kieran and Eloise.

With Kieran disinterested in Flavia and having pushed her aside, wasnโ€™t Freya in a more precarious position than ever?

At that moment, Luna pressed her hand to Freyaโ€™s forehead, concern etched on her face. โ€œFreya, are you okay?โ€

โ€œYeah.โ€

โ€œThen what are you waiting for? Letโ€™s go demand some justice!โ€

As Luna made to haul Freya up, she turned and saw Kieran, who had appeared behind them at some unknown point.

โ€œAh!โ€ Luna stumbled backward several steps in shock.

When had Kieran arrived?

Looking even more troubled than Luna, Freya asked with a dark tone, โ€œHow do you have the keys to my place?โ€

โ€œI bought it. What do you think?โ€
