Chapter 1335
Goldie was so enthusiastic and constantly preparing all sorts of stuff, which made Cornelia really overwhelmed,
“Goldie, I just wanted to pop by and have a chat. Didn’t mean to cause you all this fuss.”
Goldie replied, “Don’t be a stranger. We’re neighbors, with lots of connections. You should swing by more often.”
Cornelia had been living in the Capital for over half a year and made lots of acquaintances through Grandpa
Augustine.
Many people would sing her praises in front of Grandpa Augustine, but behind her back, they’d call her an
illegitimatewild child. Some even said she had tricked Grandpa Augustine with her schemes, and sneaked her way
into the Duran family.
Long story short, she couldn’t really fit in with the Duran’s crowd. But she always liked being on her own and never

Emily, Cornelia had hardly found anyone in the Capital she could chat with.
Goldie’s presence just filled the emotional void in Cornelia’s life. After chatting with Goldie on WhatsApp a few days
ago, they hit it off. Cornelia cared a lot about this online friend, “Alright then, I’ll take you up on that. As long as you
don’t mind, I’ll be around often.”
“I’ll have more free time at home once I cut down on work. Feel free to drop by, we can even make desserts
together.” Goldie waved her hand and someone brought a jug of juice.
Cornelia didn’t like coffee, and Goldie seemed to know this, so she prepared juice instead.
Goldie poured a glass of juice for Cornelia, “Nelly, is there anything you can’t eat?”
“No preferences. I like everything.” Cornelia put her hand on her belly, “And my baby is very well-behaved, not
fussy at all. I didn’t really have any special reactions during my pregnancy, I can eat and sleep well.”
Goldie said, “Actually, pregnancy isn’t the hard part. The real challenge is from the time the child is born until they
turn three. I heard your hubby isn’t with you, have you found a nanny? If not, I know some good ones, I can
recommend some to you.”
Cornelia replied, “Goldie, thanks for your kindness, but my grandpa has already sorted it out for me.”
Goldie said, “Right, these things need to be arranged in advance. There are many people looking for nannies now,
finding a good one isn’t easy. Some even require booking months in advance.”
Cornelia nodded, “Yes, I’ve met two, and both seemed pretty good. I’ve made my decision.”
Goldie said, “That’s good.”
Their conversation came to a halt and they were at a loss for what to say next. Goldie tried to break the awkward
silence, “Nelly, what do you usually do?”
Cornelia thought for a moment, she remembered telling Goldie on WhatsApp that she was writing a script. She

about to start shooting. I might have to go to the set then.”
Goldie recalled that Jeremy had shown her the chat history where Cornelia mentioned this. She quickly added, “I
remember, you did mention this to me, I just forgot. You managed to write such a great script while pregnant,
that’s really incredible.”
Cornelia blushed at the praise, “This is my first attempt at writing a script, I’ve learned so much from the veterans,
and I have no idea how the script I wrote will turn out.”
Goldie said, “Anyway, as long as you’ve done your best and stayed true to yourself, that’s good enough.”.
Cornelia responded, “Yes.”
Goldie asked again, “Have you picked a name for the baby?”
Cornelia replied, “Yes, I have.”
Goldie asked, “Can you tell me what the baby’s name is?”
Cornelia explained, “The baby’s name was picked by my grandma before she passed away. Whether it’s a boy or a
girl, the name is ‘Hope’, meaning that we hope the child will be safe and healthy.”
