Please polish this.

Hi, teachers I want to polish this phrese below:

A:We are not responsible for your properies in this building.

B:You mean you couldn't help if I lose any one of my stuffs, do you?

A:Yes. We couldn't help you. You need to take care of them yourself.

Do you think the underlined sentense is vague or clear enough?

Hi,

Use won't, because the intended meaning is that I am not willing to help.
