Exercice 1

"Even if things don't work out at Delavigne, I'll still have a nest-egg here."

How could this be expressed differently, without changing the meaning?

Delavigne won't help pay for my flat even if I have financial problems.

I'll have some savings even if I lose my job at Delavigne.

If I lose my job and flat then I can stay with family.

Je ne sais pas

"Even if things don't work out at Delavigne, I'll still have a nest-egg here."

How could this be expressed differently, without changing the meaning?

Delavigne won't help pay for my flat even if I have financial problems.

This is incorrect. Hannah is not saying that Delavigne will refuse to pay for her flat if she has financial problems. In any case no sane company would ever consider doing this.

I'll have some savings even if I lose my job at Delavigne.

This is correct. Hannah is saying that if she loses her job at Delavigne, the money she has invested in her flat will provide some savings for her. A "nest egg" is usually a sum of money held in reserve and is synonymous with "savings". Example: Every month I put money towards a nest-egg so that I can retire at 50. In this context "to work out" means to develop in a good or specified way, for example: Bob's new computer program didn't work out, and it crashed the whole server.

If I lose my job and flat then I can stay with family.

This is incorrect. Hannah is not saying that if she loses her job and flat that she can stay with her family. A "nest egg" is not synonymous with a "nest" which is a little home where birds sleep.

If I don't work hard I'll lose my job here at Delavigne.

This is incorrect. Hannah is not saying that if she doesn't work hard she will lose her job. The phrasal verb "to work out" is not synonymous with "working hard".
