novelxo Chapter 266
Meanwhile, Freya was back at her apartment with Luna in tow.
Freya sprawled out on the bed, laptop open and buzzing with the chaos of her new startup's demands, when Luna burst in with excitement. "Freya! You've got to see what's happening in our school's newcomer group chat!" "What's up?"
"Just look!" In a flash, Luna handed her phone to Freya, pointing at a photo of Kara. "Isn't that Kara?"
"It is."
Kara was unmistakable, her features clear in the close-up shot.
Luna fumed. "I knew it! That woman is up to no good. She's gunning for your old spot!"
"What spot?" Freya was puzzled, clueless about what Luna meant.
"Of course, she wants to replace you as Kieran's fiancée! Look. Everyone in the group's saying she was picked up by a Sutton family limo before class today! Pics, or it didn't happen, right?"
Upon hearing that, Freya's interest was piqued. True enough, her phone was ablaze with gossip about Kara and Kieran's relationship.
Luna continued, "Since you and Kieran called off your engagement, Kara's a distant relative at best. Why would the Sutton family's limo pick her up? Now, everyone's whispering that Mr. Sutton and Kara are together, and that's why Kieran broke it off with you! It's infuriating! Isn't this tarnishing your reputation?"
"Tarnishing my reputation? If anything, this makes Kieran look bad, not me."
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. "Are 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?"
"Do you think Audrey is foolish? You find this situation ridiculous, so why would Audrey agree to Kieran's being with Kara? Besides, doesn't Kieran already have a fiancée? Even if Kieran is fine with these rumors, Ms. Miller wouldn't stand for it."
"Flavia? Please, haven'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 on the future!" en FindNovel
Hearing this, Freya paused, "Really?"
"Cross my heart!"
"Oh no..."
"Now you realize 'oh no'? Shouldn't you be storming over to the Sutton family demanding justice?"
"No, what meant was..." Freya was about to explain how she'd hoped Kieran's involvement with Flavia. would finally extricate her from the messy love triangle with Kieran and Eloise.

At that moment, Luna pressed her hand to Freya's forehead, concern etched on her face. "Freya, are you okay?"
"Yeah."
"Then what are you waiting for? Let's go demand some justice!"
As Luna made to haul Freya up, she turned and saw Kieran, who had appeared behind them at some unknown point. "Ah!" Luna stumbled backward several steps in shock.
When had Kieran arrived?
Looking even more troubled than Luna, Freya asked with a dark tone, "How do you have the keys to my place?"
"I bought it. What do you think?"
