Chapter 455
“Do you think we look alike? In what way?” Cornelia gave Natalia a glance and honestly didn’t see any
similarities between them.
Briana eyed them again, “I can’t exactly pinpoint where, but there’s something about you two that feels
similar.”
She hadn’t noticed it before, but the more she looked at them, the more she fell some resemblance But
she couldn’t explain what it was. After a close look, she finally realized they both had beautiful eyes
Yet, Comelia’s eyes were clear and bright, like they were full of stars, pulling people in, while Natalia’s
eyes were tender, like water, filling people with an urge to protect her. “Maybe us pretty girls just have

Briana that you’re from Rosenberg. 1 prepared some Rosenberg delicacies for you today Hope you’ll
like them.”
“I’m not picky, as long as there’s food. What happened to the corner of your mouth?” Cornélia noticed a
slight swelling on Natalia’s face and mouth coiner the moment she

If her mother cared a bit more about her, maybe she wouldn’t be under Cameron’s control. But her

After they became friends on Whatsapp, Natalia said, “Cornelia, we’re good friends now, can I hit you

Forgiving Natalia was one thing being friends with her was another.
Cornelia had been studying in Riverton for four years and working for almost three. She hadn’t made
any close friends yet. In general, she’d rather be alone than hanging out with friends who didn’t share
her views
She politely declined, “I’m really busy with work and like to stay home in my free time, might not share
the same hobbies as you guys.”
Natalia lowered her head in slight disappointment, murmuring “Oh“. She looked a bit pitiful, like a puppy
nobody cared about.
Cornelia softened, “Briana comes by occasionally, you can join her if you’re free”
