Will I lose my edits/files if I use a different account?

So long story short, I'm using my sister's creative cloud and she decided not to pay it. I have about 100 photos to edit individually and I have to get them done by the end of next week and next week is the best time to edit. So I'm already have an account, used up a trial and everything. I'm going to use mine again and start paying for it this weekend but I'm a little confused.

If I log out of her account on creative cloud and log into mine and use Lightroom, what happens to all of my work and edits on Lightroom? Is it only available on her account or can I just continue exactly what I was doing before?

Thanks for responses in advance!

    Hi Carphotography,

    If you use a different account to sign into the creative cloud application your work and edited images will remain in lightroom as they are stored in the catalog, but if you have synced any collections to creative cloud library then you won't be able to access them.
