Chapter 338

In Caleb’s mind, Eloise was never the type to stir trouble. A flicker of discomfort crossed Eloise’s face, yet she insisted, “How could it be me? She’s called off her engagement with Kieran. Even if they hadn’t, I would never hurt anyone like that.”

After hearing her words, Caleb’s expression softened. “You called me back from abroad to show Kieran still has feelings for you. Look, he’s broken off his engagement. Can’t you be at ease?” Caleb said.

“Thanks to you, but I still feel…” Eloise was unsettled, unable to pinpoint her discomfort. Perhaps it was a woman’s intuition. She felt Kieran’s attitude toward her had changed.

“Ellie, you can’t be too greedy. You should know Kieran will never marry you,” Caleb bluntly said.

Hearing that, Eloise’s face lost all color. She had always known that Kieran would never choose her to be his bride. Even if Freya hadn’t been around, he would have chosen someone else. But giving up without a fight just wasn’t in her nature. Even if she couldn’t be Kieran’s wife, she was determined to be the most important and special woman in his heart.

“Let’s drop it. How about we grab something to eat?” Eloise naturally linked her arm with Caleb’s, and they walked out of Summit University together.

That afternoon, the principal glanced at his phone, first seeing news of Ronan and Susan from W Group holding hands, and then a photo of Eloise and Kieran attending the dinner party together. His heart skipped a beat. Had he seen these updates earlier, he wouldn’t have embarrassed Eloise that afternoon! With Ronan’s close confidante back in town and Ronan likely not bothering with Freya anymore, Eloise remained Kieran’s darling. Yet, the principal had just snubbed her publicly.

Worried, the principal decided to call Kieran. Jarrett answered the phone. With a nervous chuckle, the principal explained, “Jarrett, there was a dispute today between Ms. Dawson and Ms. Harwood. Ms. Harwood wanted strict action to give an account to the injured student, but Ms. Dawson claimed she got framed. With graduation exams around the corner, what do you think?”

Jarrett glanced at Kieran, who was in the middle of an urgent meeting. Finally, he calmly responded, “Mr. Sutton and Ms. Dawson have ended their engagement. As for the school matters, Principal, please handle it as you see fit. Just one thing. Ensure Ms. Harwood doesn’t get wronged.”

“Sure, got it,” the principal quickly assured before hanging up. It seemed Kieran had moved on from Freya. In that case, the principal thought he should ensure Eloise was treated with the utmost respect, signaling his goodwill.
