The Bride Who Said No: Escaping the Shadows of Yesterday novel Chapter 408

After all, Kara had nothing to do with him. Anyone with half a brain would realize that with their worlds so apart, a connection between them was impossible.

The rumors had to be Kara's own fabrication.

Kieran had no taste for such manipulative people; in fact, he found her utterly repulsive.

Kara was oblivious to the fact that Kieran was already privy to her actions. In a bid to sway him, she said, "But my aunt's troubles are also affecting the Dawson family. Mr. Sutton, are you really going to just stand by?"

"Jarrett, did I stutter before? Or do you need me to repeat myself?"

"Yes, Mr. Sutton."

Once again, Jarrett approached Kara, saying, "Ms. Orson, if you don’t leave now, I’m afraid I’ll have to resort to drastic measures."

Kara paled at his words.

Her aunt Johanna’s imprisonment could ruin her if word got out at Summit University, where she was just starting her freshman year.

If her lies were exposed, with no one to back her, how was she going to survive the next three years, let alone afford tuition?

"Mr. Sutton! Please, I beg you, help my aunt! Lady Sutton! Considering how obedient I’ve been these past few days, serving you, I beg you, Mr. Sutton, please help my aunt!"

Kara was a mess of tears.

Audrey, observing the disdain Kieran held for this woman, shifted her tone, "Your aunt's criminal actions are out of our hands. This is really a matter for the Dawson family. If you're looking for help, I suggest you reach out to Ms. Dawson."
