Chapter 1358
Waking up at this ungodly hour, Cornelia found herself unable to drift back to sleep, so she decided to get up and
freshen up. To her dismay, she found that not only was the heater busted, but there was also no hot water supply.
Just then, there was a knock on the door.
“Who’s there?” Cornelia asked.
A female voice came from outside, ‘Ms. Stewart, I’m Kellan’s assistant.”
Comelia was puzzled as to why Kellan’s assistant would come to her this early, but she opened the door anyway,
“Hey there! What’s up?”
The girl answered, “Your room has no heater or hot water, right?”
Comelia replied, “Yeah, that’s right.”

water in our room, wanna come over?
Comelia barely knew the girl and considering situation, how could she possibly go to another guy’s room to freshen
up?
“Thanks for the offer, I appreciate it. I’m used to washing my face with cold water at home, so it’s all good.”
Cornelia said.
“Ms. Stewart, you really don’t want to come over?” The girl asked.
Cornelia replied, “Yeah, thanks a ton though!”
The girl confessed, “Actually, it was Kellan who wanted you to come over.”
Cornelia smiled in response. “Then I’ll personally thank him when I see him later.”
The girl gave Cornelia a hard look, eyed her stomach and then said, “You’re pregnant. Who do you think you are,
acting high and mighty?”
“What?” Cornelia was taken aback by her comment.
“Seize the opportunity, don’t let it slip. If you can satisfy Kellan, you can save yourself years of struggle.” The girl
said.
“What are you talking about?” Cornelia was utterly confused by the girl’s words.
“Don’t play dumb.” The girl retorted.
Comelia didn’t know much about the ins and outs of the crew, apart from Hannah, she didn’t know anyone else.
And right now, she felt like she was on someone else’s turf. She knew she couldn’t go against the tide; she had to
play it smart.
“Lady, I don’t know who you are, but if you smear Kellan’s name, I won’t let it slide.” Cornelia’s words left the girl
dumbstruck.

like you tarnish his reputation.”
Cornelia’s fiery words left the girl with a sour expression, and finally, she turned around and left.
Watching the girl leave, Cornelia went back into her room, immediately bolted the door and carefully checked every
corner inside. After making sure there were no hidden cameras or anything, she finally relaxed. But if Kellan really
wanted to do something to her, even she managed to stop them this time, they would definitely find other ways
next time. She had to think ahead of how to deal with it.
Cornelia mulled over her options while washing with cold water, her face and nose were red from the cold after she
was done. Just then, there was another knock on her door.
Cornelia jumped in fright, then heard Hannah’s voice.
“Nelly, are you awake?” Hannah asked.
Cornelia hurried to open the door. When she opened the door, Hannah was holding a steaming hot breakfast.
“Welly, this is the breakfast my assistant prepared for me, I brought it to share with you.” Hannah said.
Cornelia sneezed.
