The Bride Who Said No: Escaping the Shadows of Yesterday novel Chapter 304

In the schoolyard, the buzz was all about Kara and her sudden connection to the illustrious Sutton family.

"Kara, are you for real moving in with the Suttons?" one of her classmates asked in disbelief.

"Please tell me you're joking. We're talking about the Suttons here."

Within just three days, Kara had become the talk of the town—or more accurately, the school's most envied figure. The sight of her being picked up by the Sutton family's sleek black limousine had everyone buzzing.

Yet, Kara had remained tight-lipped about the whole affair.

Kara blushed and tried to deflect, "Guys, I promised Audrey I wouldn't blab about it."

At the mention of Audrey, the students' eyes gleamed with curiosity.

"Audrey? Kieran's grandmother?"

"OMG, Kara, don't tell me you're going to be the future Mrs. Sutton?"

No one in their class had come close to rubbing shoulders with someone of Kieran's stature.

Kara's cheeks flushed even more. "I can't say anything, guys. Just drop it."

Her reaction only fueled their speculation further.

Remembering their past behavior toward Kara, a few girls quickly cozied up to her.

"Kara, we didn't mean anything by it. It was all joking around. Don't take it to heart."

"From now on, you're my bestie. Tell me if anyone messes with you, and I’ll back you up."

"Yeah, Kara, if you marry into the Sutton family, don't forget about us."
