Chapter 197
Just as Comelia was hesitating. Abigail suddenly thought of a critical issue, “Oh, wait a minute, we
haven’t even made our cabinets yet, should we hold off from buying the sofa?”
That’s right. Maybe we should really get a grip on the process of home renovation?” Cornelia realized,
they were both novices at this. They were clueless about the renovation steps, let
alone the details
Abigail suggested, “Why don’t we go online and look up some renovation tips first?”
Cornelia nodded in agreement
Abigail continued, “Our sales rep told us that banks usually disburse loans faster at the beginning of the
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtyear. If we’re lucky, our loan may be disbursed tomorrow or after tomorrow Once we get the loan, we
can take possession of the apartment and start the renovation. Then we wont have to rent anymore.”
The thought of owning their own cozy nest in Riverton brought a smile to Cornelia’s face, “Yeah, we will
soon have a place of our own.
However, a voice spoiled their good mood. ‘Ms. Stewart, I didn’t expect to see you here. You didn’t buy
a place in Riverton, did you?”
It was Natalia from behind them, with a fashionably dressed woman by her side.
Cornelia smiled. Is it so strange that I bought a place in Riverton?”
Natalia still looked envious, “Strange or not, you know best. You’ve been in Riverton for so many years
without being able to afford a house. Yet, you managed to buy one within a year with Marc Just how

“Just because you think a woman needs a man to buy a house, doesn’t mean all women are like you,”
Cornelia shot back, leaving Natalia speechless.
“And stop calling Marc like you’re buddies Does President Hartley even know who you are? He’s a
married man, and you’re throwing yourself at him. I’m embarrassed for you”
When it came to quarrels, Cornelia thought that few people could win her. True enough, her words
infuriated Natalia, who turned red with anger, Lucia, don’t do business with this woman. Her money is
dirty”
Lucia replied, “Yes, if you say not to sell, we won’t.”
Natalia was still not satisfied, Inform all the businesses here not to deal with her.”

deposit yet, or she’d be in trouble
Cornelia pulled Abigail towards the exit, “Abby, let’s shop somewhere else.”
Abigail purposely said loudly, “Who is that, so uncivilized, not putting their dog on a leash, and it barks
at anyone. Such bad luck!”
Cornelia laughed. “Why bother arguing with a dog?”
Outside, Natalia couldn’t be bullied like this. With an idea, she shouted to the security guard at the
door, “Stop those two women! My diamond necklace is missing, I suspect they stole it”
The Reese family’s shopping mall, there must be no one who doesn’t know Natalia. The security guard
immediately stopped Cornelia and Abigail, “Ladies, please wait!”
The guard said “please,” but his attitude was very firm, as if he had already decided that Cornelia and
Abigail were thieves.
