Chapter 324

Once Kara had signed the dorm agreement, she handed it to Eloise. Eloise gave it a once-over before saying, “Sure, you can move in, but make no mistake. If anything in this dorm goes AWOL, you’re the one in the hot seat.”

“I would never steal anything, Eloise,” Kara replied, her expression earnest.

Eloise gave a slight, indifferent smile. Jenny, who always had a low tolerance for such attitudes, didn’t hide her disdain, rolling her eyes blatantly before Kara.

“Ellie, let’s go,” Jenny said, linking arms with Eloise, and the two of them left the dorm room. Their departure was like a sigh of relief for the other roommates.

“Must have been all talk to intimidate Kara!”

“Exactly, Mrs. Sutton took a liking to Kara. Why would she send Kara to the Sutton family to be a maid? It’s not like the Sutton family is short on staff.”

While the roommates continued to defend Kara, they were unaware Jenny and Eloise’s warnings were based on truth.

Biting her lip, Kara said, “I won’t take anything. Please don’t worry. Once the Sutton family sends someone for me, I’ll move out immediately and won’t cause any trouble.”

“We’re all friends here. Of course, we believe you! Besides, you’ll be the future fiancée of the Sutton family’s heir. Why would you need to take our things?” The group warmly reassured Kara.

Yet, Kara’s heart sank further, unsure when the Sutton family would come and pick her up.

Meanwhile, at the Sutton Group headquarters, Kieran scanned the invitation in his hand and said, “Ronan sent this. Take a look.”

Jarrett nabbed the invite, which was for a big bash celebrating the launch of the W Group.

“Looks like that mysterious Miss Susan will also attend,” Jarrett remarked.

“Ronan’s kept her under tight wraps, all her information marked top secret. I’m curious what kind of woman has caught Ronan’s eye,” Kieran mused, his face stoic.

Jarrett replied, “Even if she’s Mr. Beckett’s ace, she’s a woman and poses no threat.”

Kieran sneered, “I know, but I’m curious.”

Rumor had it that Ronan was not interested in women, maintaining a clean reputation. Kieran wanted to see what kind of woman could change that.

Seeing Kieran calmly handling work on his desk, Jarrett ventured, “Mr. Sutton, when I sent someone to the apartment yesterday, I found Ms. Dawson had moved out.”

Hearing that, Kieran paused while opening a file.

“And? So what?”

“So…should we investigate?”

“From now on, anything regarding Freya is none of my concern. Do I need to repeat myself a third time?” Kieran’s gaze was indifferent. Jarrett had never seen his boss so emotionally involved with any woman. Not even Eloise could stir Kieran’s emotions as Freya did. Yet, it seemed Kieran had quickly lost interest in Freya.

Kieran instructed, “Prepare for tonight’s gala and send Ellie’s gown to her.”
