Once Kara had signed the dorm agreement, she handed it to Eloise before her.
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 had always had a low tolerance for such attitudes and wouldn’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.
"It 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.
