Chapter 485: It’s Hard to Be a Good Person

Paige Sterling saw the official operation to redeem Julian Hawthorne and could only give a thumbs up with a 666.To make it believable, they even got a reporter to shoot Julian Hawthorne looking wretched in the cellar, and then a scene of him being rescued. Follow current novels on novelhall.com

Now, no one is scolding Julian Hawthorne, and he doesn’t have to worry about getting pelted with rotten eggs when he goes out.

The officials got ahold of those data files and also asked Paige Sterling to confirm them.

The files are indeed correct, but judging from them, it seems their research progress has always been quite slow, and the developed potion hasn’t reached a catastrophic level.

At the time, Mrs. Hawthorne used the most successful bottle on Julian, but unfortunately, it didn’t fully achieve their desired effect. Julian didn’t mutate after the injection, and later, the mutation gene was completely cleared by the wristband researched by Paige Sterling, making him now a normal person.

However, Paige still couldn’t solve Julian Hawthorne’s issue of not being able to touch people.

She has no idea why.

Julian Hawthorne, on the other hand, isn’t anxious at all and doesn’t care much. Seeing Paige Sterling trying to research something to prevent allergies for him, he said, "Whether I can touch others or not, I don’t care. Being able to hug you is enough for me."

This is genuinely how he feels. Before, when he couldn’t touch people, he didn’t have many thoughts, except for the annoyance of not being able to walk up to Paige.

Now, he is able to hug Paige. To him, other matters are really not important.

This condition, it doesn’t matter if it’s never cured.

Seeing that Julian truly doesn’t care, Paige Sterling temporarily put this matter aside.

That day, she drove home from Islet Labs, and while passing by the mall entrance, she coincidentally saw Penelope Thatcher.

Penelope Thatcher has sharp eyes, recognized her car, and ran over to stop it.

"Paige, my driver is stuck in traffic. Can I hitch a ride home with you?"

She pointed to a pile of stuff not far away, "I bought so many things today, going home alone is so tiring."

Seeing her act cute, Paige got goosebumps but didn’t say anything, still letting her in the car and drove her home.

Penelope Thatcher doesn’t live with her parents. She bought an apartment in a high-end community on her own, and Paige drove her to the entrance of the community.

Seeing Penelope’s thin arms and legs, Paige was about to be kind and help her carry the pile of stuff from the trunk upstairs.

Penelope Thatcher said, "No need, I have a maid at home."

Our God Sterling’s hands, those are made for creating a new world, how could they be used for chores?

So some people’s hands are hands, while some people’s hands aren’t called hands, they’re called forelimbs.

Penelope sat in the car calling the maid, and while waiting for the maid, she chatted with Paige Sterling.

Paige rarely responds, and Penelope talks to herself, not feeling tired at all.

Soon, Penelope’s maid came downstairs, and seeing her, Penelope waved.

But the maid acted as if she didn’t see Penelope and ran straight to the opposite side.

Though the area is a high-end community, the opposite side has a few old buildings that haven’t been demolished.

Penelope’s maid walked to one of the old buildings, where there was a girl standing. The maid spoke cheerfully with the girl, seemingly forgetting all about Penelope’s things.

Frowning, Penelope called, "What’s going on? I asked you to come get my stuff, why are you dawdling?"

The maid chatted for a while longer with the girl before coming over, a silly grin on her face.

"Penelope, I’m here."

Paige heard a male voice, stunned, did Penelope hire a male maid?

She looked and indeed saw a man, looking honest and simple-minded, speaking with a touch of foolishness, he seemed like a straightforward, honest man.

Penelope said in a bad mood, "Get the stuff from the trunk upstairs."

The male maid responded, hurriedly went to get the stuff.

Penelope invited Paige to sit at her house for a while, Paige checked the time, "It’s late, I need to go home for dinner."

Penelope was about to say, they could have dinner at her place.

Then Paige’s phone rang.

It was Julian Hawthorne calling, asking where Paige was, when she’d arrive home, dinner was almost ready.

Penelope, "..."

This guy is toxic or what? Checking up on her?

After hanging up, Paige said, "You heard that, home is urging me, I have to go back."

Penelope pouted, looking aggrieved, "Are you just leaving me to stay here all alone?"

Paige glanced outside, "Didn’t you hire someone to be in your house?"

"You mean my maid?" Penelope’s mouth twitched, "He’s really just a maid, I’m perfectly innocent with him."

Then she hooked Paige’s arm, "Paige, I am devoted to you, how could you doubt me like this, my heart is aching."

Paige, "Alright, get out of the car."

Penelope pouted as she got out, and then Paige drove off with a swoosh, utterly heartless and unrestrained to the extreme.

"Penelope, let’s head upstairs."

The male maid called Penelope from the side.

Penelope regained her composure and walked towards the community, with the male maid carrying large bags following behind.

The male maid’s name is Jordan Yorke, he came to the city looking for work, but he only has a middle school diploma and after graduation, he’d been farming in the countryside, feeling entirely out of place in the city, and unable to find relatives in the city for support, he was in a pretty miserable situation.

When Penelope ran into him, he was sick, collapsing right in front of Penelope’s car, scaring her into thinking it was a scam.

Later, seeing that Jordan Yorke was genuinely sick, and unable to just leave him, she could only take him to the hospital and pay for his medical expenses.

When realizing Jordan Yorke had not a penny, she even generously gave him some money.

She wasn’t normally this kind-hearted, probably because the day she met Jordan Yorke, she had lunch with Paige.

Afterward, Penelope truly paid it no mind, but unexpectedly met Jordan Yorke again at the mall when shopping.

Jordan Yorke helped her carry stuff, running around tirelessly and said he wanted to be by Penelope’s side as a gesture to repay her for saving his life.

Penelope didn’t initially desire any repayment from Jordan Yorke, and naturally refused.

Moreover, her outings always follow with bodyguards, she doesn’t need Jordan Yorke to work for her.

However, Jordan Yorke didn’t see it that way, he felt that saving his life should be repaid with devotion, and immovably followed Penelope to her community.

Unable to enter the community, he waited for Penelope daily at the community entrance, in all weather.

Eventually, the community security suspected his intentions, directly called the police, and had the officers take him away.

At the police station, he claimed he knew Penelope, that he was her friend, rather than being there for wrongdoing.

The officers had to contact Penelope, and eventually, Penelope personally went to the station to bail Jordan Yorke out.

Thus, Jordan Yorke felt Penelope saved him once again.

Two life-saving gestures, he felt he could never repay in his lifetime, but still hoped to stay by Penelope’s side, hoping she’d give him the chance to repay her.

Sometimes Penelope can be quite naive, feeling Jordan Yorke is also a straightforward and sincere type, different from other mundane accusatory ones, thoughtlessly agreed to let him repay her, making him her housekeeper.

Anyway, Jordan Yorke was out of work, if she didn’t help him, he’d probably starve to death in the city with his honest nature.

This is considered being a good person all the way, right?
