The Bride Who Said No: Escaping the Shadows of Yesterday novel Chapter 368

"If you pull something like that again, don't even bother coming into work."

"...Yes." Jarrett's head sank even lower.

"But Mr. Sutton, you had the principal change all of tomorrow's exam questions. What if Ms. Dawson can't graduate because of this?"

"She brought it on herself. Who does she think she is, trying to game the system?"

Kieran took a deep breath, "If she really wants to graduate, she'll come to me."

"Yes."

Jarrett lowered his head once again.

Meanwhile, inside Summit University.

Kara had been staying in her dorm for days, waking up at dawn and returning from the Suttons' like a nanny who wasn't paid a dime.

Her roommates, who had been expecting Kara to head to the Suttons', started to doubt her.

One of them tested the waters on purpose: "Our final year exams are almost over, and in a month or two, we'll be on summer break. Kara, you won't be able to stay in the dorm then. Are you planning to live with the Suttons, or would you like to stay at my place?"

"I...I..."

Of course, Kara wanted to stay with the Suttons.

"But didn't you say Mr. Sutton thought living together might tarnish your reputation? Or maybe, Mr. Sutton just couldn't stand the loneliness?"

The roommates giggled, letting their imaginations run wild.

Kara's face turned beet red. The thought of something happening between her and Kieran made her feel like it'd all be worth it. But the realization that she hadn't been invited to stay made her anxious.

Where would she go once she couldn't stay in the dorm anymore?

"Sophie, I know it's a bit much to ask, but... I don't want to rush into staying with the Suttons. Could I possibly stay at your place over the summer?"

Kara knew exactly whom to turn to.
