Chapter 1218
âOur new studio is all set up, you wanna swing by and take a look?â Abigail asked.
âSure, Iâll be right over.â Cornelia said
The new studio was near Lakeview Estates, so they could walk to work, super handy
It took Cornelia about half an hour to drive from the Hartley Group headquarters
âComelia, follow meâ Abigail led Cornelia to the second floor, âLook at this office, great lighting and lake view. Zack and I specially prepared it for youâ
Cornelia asked. âI can paint at home, I donât need to come to the studio every day. Why did you prepare such a nice office for me?â
âNo matter where you work, youâre a part of our studio, our core. Now that weâve moved to a new place, and the space is much bigger than before. Vie obviously had to consider youâ Abigail said.
âWhat about your and Zackâs offices? Cornelia asked.
âNext doorâ Abigail said.
Abigail then led Cornelia to the next door. Those two offices also had a lake view, but they didnât have as broad a view as Corneliaâs. The most important thing was that the combined area of Abigail and Zackâs offices was roughly the same as Corneliaâs.
The ones who always put Comelia first were her two friends, Zack and Abigail. Cornelia suddenly felt a lump in her throat, her eyes welling up with tears. She quickly turned her head, looking out the window.
Abigail, lost in the joy of the new office, didnât notice Corneliaâs emotional state and kept talking, âCornelia, Zack and I talked, youâve quit as the assistant to the president at the Hartley Group. From now on youâll have much more free time, we three can work together to develop our studio, and strive to make it bigger and stronger.â
Cornelia nodded, âOkayâ
âOver these years, weâve been selfâreliant and Iâm very satisfied with our current scale, what about you?â Abigail said.
âIâm very satisfied tooâ Cornelia smiled.
The three of them, young as they were, had opened a studio through their own efforts. They made money and bought a house in Riverton. They were already doing better
than many
Corneliaâs dreams were not big she always wanted to have her own house, somewhere to stay. She wanted her own business, some savings, and that would be enough.
Now all of these had come true, she was very satisfied with her life. However, at this moment, she couldnât feel the joy in her heart. It felt like there was a hole in her heart, cold wind blowing in, making her feel cold
Abigail touched her stomach and said, âI have a home, a career, and a child now. Suddenly feels like thereâs nothing else to pursue in life.â
Comelia also reached out her hand and asked, âCan I touch it?â
âOf course. But theyâre still very small, we canât feel them yet.â Abigail placed Corneliaâs hand on her stomach.
âYou must eat well, get enough rest, and ensure the childâs health. As for the studioâs affairs, I will assist you more, because I donât have anything else to do at home.â Cornelia instructed
âOkay, I will follow your advice. Abigail suddenly remembered something, âOh, thereâs one more very important thing, I need to discuss with you.â
Cornelia replied, âGo aheadâ
