Chapter 139 "Ms. Dawson's ID went missing at the venue and ended up in my hands. And what do you know, my assistant here was without an ID as well, so we thought, 'Why not use it for a bit?' Mr. Sutton, you know how it is. The folks we deal with aren't the cleanest. Living in a law-abiding place like Echo City can be a challenge." Though Preston said this with a casual shrug, Kieran wasn't buying it for a second. "I'd rather have my people take a thorough look around.

"Didn't you messageabout seeing Kara and Kieran together? Where's Kara?" "Kara? I have no clue. Doesn't she study finance? First-year students have classes now, but you should check her schedule." "Let's go find her." "Now? But class is about to start!" "We're not missing much." Always in the top ten of their class and a star student, Luna could ditch a class without it causing any trouble. Following Freya, Luna asked, "What's going on? Why the rush? Did Kara and Kieran start rumors? That Johanna, not a single good egg in her family!" As Luna rambled on, they bumped into Kara, books in hand, and on her way to class.
Kara's face paled at the sight of Freya. Wasn't Freya supposed to be with Preston? The students accompanying Kara nudged her at the sight of Freya, whispering, "Kara, your cousin's here!" Freya changed drastically since the engagement party. Even her sense of fashion differed from Eloise's.
