Hannah saw that Cornelia’s cheeks, nose, and hands were all red. She asked, "Cornelia, it's so cold, why don't you turn on the heater?"
Cornelia replied, "I thought the heater was broken. The reception said to cut costs, only the main actors' rooms can have the heater on."
Hannah, who had been in the entertainment industry for many years and encountered all sorts of odd situations, found this sort of thing rather normal, "I'm staying in a suite, you can bunk with me."
Cornelia accepted the breakfast Hannah offered and placed it on the small table in her room.
"If I stay in your room, won't you be worried that I'd overhear your business secrets or swipe your personal photos?" Cornelia asked.
"Are you that kind of person?" Hannah shot back.
Cornelia replied, "Not right now, but who knows about the future. People's hearts are the most unpredictable. With your special status, you should be more careful and not let others know too much about you."
Hannah retorted, "I'm just offering you a place to stay. If you don't want to, then forget it. Stop going on about it and eat your breakfast. Enough chit-chat."
Cornelia chuckled, "You're a popular star, the youngest Best Actress winner, and you're personally bringing me breakfast. I must be pretty lucky."
Hannah replied, "To the capitalists, all these titles are just a joke."
Cornelia didn’t respond. Hannah was stating a fact.
Hannah continued, "Today at ten past ten, we're holding the commencement ceremony, there will be a lot of media. I'm going back to my room to get ready soon, want to tag along? As the scriptwriter, you should attend too."
"I don't really want to be in the limelight, what should I do?" Cornelia patted her stomach.
Hannah said, "If you're not comfortable being in front, you can stand at the back. You're a newbie scriptwriter and the film isn't popular yet, so not many people will notice you."
Cornelia nodded, "Alright."
