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 had the intention to fit in with those fancy folks.
