Just when he thought he was off the hook, the dirt Kellan had done in the past was already all over the internet. Cornelia saw it too.
In a panic, Kellan kicked the door a couple more times, "Cornelia, can you beg President Dixon for me, ask him not to be so cold-hearted?"
"You made your bed, now you gotta lie in it. You brought this on yourself." Cornelia said.
Before Kellan could say another word, two men showed up from behind and dragged him away.
Cornelia finally let out a sigh of relief. Then she called Grandpa Augustine, "Grandpa Augustine, are you in Harbor City yet?"
"I listen to you this time and didn't go to Harbor City." Grandpa Augustine replied.
Cornelia was skeptical, "Really? Can you move your camera a bit so I can see where you are?"
Grandpa Augustine moved his camera, and sure enough, it was the Duran family villa, a sight all too familiar to Cornelia. Meaning, Grandpa Augustine might not know about her situation in Harbor City, and the one who dealt with Kellan might not be him.
So who could it be? Cornelia didn't know, also she didn't dare to think about it.
Even though she had prepared herself mentally, her heart still ached every time she thought about that man.
"Nelly, what are you thinking about? You're totally spaced out." Grandpa Augustine asked.
Cornelia snapped back to reality and said, "I'm wondering, why are you being so obedient this time? Did you do something behind my back?"
Grandpa Augustine said, "I think you're right. You're too talented to let people think you're successful just because you're relying on the Duran family."
They chatted about this topic for a long time.
