Chapter 1324
Seeing Cornelia in high spirits, Grandpa Augustine’s anxiety from the previous night finally eased, “Nelly, I was
worried you might not sleep well last night, but looks like you had a good one”
Comelia said “Indeed I slept soundly”
Grandpa Augustine said, “Let’s have breakfast first. I’ll drive you home later”
“Sure.” Comelia nodded, couldn’t help but look around, “Who usually maintains this place, grandpa?”
“Alfredo arranges it Grandpa Augustine said, “They’ve been working for the Duran family for many years, we totally
trust their work.”
Comelia asked, “How’s the security here, grandpa?”

Comelia assured him, “What are you talking about?”
Grandpa Augustine asked, “Why this question then all of a sudden?”
Comelia said, “I’m just admiring the place, it’s beautiful and cool in summer. I’m thinking of bringing the baby here
to escape the heat next summer, so I wanted to know about the security, like if outsiders can get in by any means”
Grandpa Augustine said, “If you want to bring the baby here in summer, you can rest assured. The security is top–
notch. Ehen the systern is on, not even a mosquito can get in.”
Camelia said, “I see.” She couldn’t help but laugh inwardly, what was she thinking? What was she hoping for?
Grandpa Augustine continued, “Nelly, I heard from Jarvis that you’re starting work after Christmas. And with your
due date coming up, it’s going to be tough. Do you think you could quit and stay home to prepare for the birth?”
Comelia asked, “How does Jarvis know I’m starting work?”
Grandpa Augustine said, “He’s more concerned about you than I am, how could he not know what you’re
planning?”
Comelia said, “Grandpa, could you talk to him? Get him to find a girl and focus on a relationship instead of putting
all his energy on me.”
Grandpa Augustine said, “Nelly, you should know how many girls out there want to marry him, but he doesn’t give
them a second glance. Jarvis is a good boy, and he’s truly excellent. I still hope you two can be together.”
Comelia said, “Grandpa, I know Jarvis is great, and he’s good to me. But you can’t force feelings. There’s no chance
for us.”
Grandpa Augustine said, “Of course, it’s just my personal wish, and I respect your decision.”

Comelia said, “Thank you for understanding. Let’s go have breakfast.”
Grandpa Augustine chuckled and gently ruffled her hair, “Alright.”
Christmas was just around the corner.
The Duran family took holidays very seriously, especially Christmas. No matter where they were, everyone in the
Duran family had to be home before Christmas and spend Christmas Eve together. So. recently, members of the
family from all over had been returning home.
Some Comelia had met before, while others were meeting her for the first time. Since many were older than
Cornelia or her elders, they were all very concerned about the baby in her belly and her marital
status
Before they met Comelia, Grandpa Augustine had already briefed them to avoid asking about these matters as
much as possible. However, curiosity always got the better of people, and everyone was keen to know about
Comelia’s child and the child’s father.
