Chapter 130: Chapter 130

Simon Hawthorne gritted his teeth, "Secretary Jones, I think I can still be rescued! Keep the funeral home to yourself."

Shaun Jones looked embarrassed, "Second Young Master, are you okay? Then why are you covered with a white sheet?"

Simon Hawthorne, "...", Can’t I just hide my face from the world?

Simon Hawthorne covered his head with the white sheet again, looking completely crestfallen.

The nurse saw him trying to stay in the car and said, "Mr. Hawthorne, can you get out of the car? This vehicle is in urgent use."

Simon Hawthorne took off the white sheet again, looked at the nurse with despair, "Don’t I need to be hospitalized?"

"Mr. Hawthorne, it’s just a minor injury, no need for hospitalization."

The nurse was understanding, seeing how their hospital was quite humane, not admitting patients unnecessarily.

However, Simon Hawthorne didn’t appreciate this kindness. He just wanted to lie on a hospital bed for a bit, to regain his dignity.

But now that his dignity couldn’t be restored, Simon Hawthorne could only look at Julian Hawthorne and Paige Sterling.

"Big Brother, Sister-in-law, can I stay with you for a while?"

He thought maybe he needed to cultivate a good relationship with his elder brother — lest he was beaten by him before, and in the future become part of a mixed double beatdown by him and his sister-in-law.

Julian Hawthorne face remained indifferent as he refused, "No." Thɪs chapter is updated by 𝗇𝗈𝗏𝖾𝗅•𝖿𝗂𝗋𝖾•𝗇𝖾𝗍

Simon Hawthorne protested, "Big Brother, how can you be so heartless? Do you have any brotherly love left?"

Although Julian Hawthorne disagreed, Simon Hawthorne stubbornly went to Silverstream Bay.

Julian Hawthorne couldn’t possibly kick him out seeing his pitiful appearance.

But Julian Hawthorne didn’t plan to care whether he lived or died, he went to make some snacks for Paige Sterling, even personally dipped them in cream to feed Paige.

Simon Hawthorne sat beside Julian Hawthorne, thinking that Julian Hawthorne was finally showing some affection for him, and opened his mouth with emotion.

After waiting for a long while, all he saw was Julian Hawthorne’s back of the head — Julian Hawthorne fed the cream-dipped snacks into Paige’s mouth.

Sonny Chambers covered his eyes beside them, "Can you consider the feelings of the singles?"

Simon Hawthorne couldn’t give up, not believing his big brother was truly ignoring him.

"Big Brother, what about me, what about me?"

Julian Hawthorne gave him a faint glance, "Are your hands broken?"

Simon Hawthorne raised his hand, "No, they’re fine."

Julian Hawthorne’s tone was cold, "Do you want me to break them for you?"

Simon Hawthorne was so scared he immediately ran to Sonny Chambers, "Big Brother, I am your own brother!"

Julian Hawthorne, "Heh."

In Julian Hawthorne’s scoffing, Simon Hawthorne felt he might be his adopted brother.

He snorted, "If you won’t let me eat, can I get it myself?"

However, the hand he reached out was slapped away by Julian Hawthorne.

"There are some in the kitchen, go get them yourself."

Simon Hawthorne pouted, got up, and went to the kitchen to get some.

But when he saw the burnt snacks in the kitchen, he was left in despair.

Is he only worthy of eating failed products?

During the days Simon Hawthorne stayed at Silverstream Bay, he truly experienced how his noble and aloof big brother became Paige Sterling’s lackey.

Really the kind that only revolves around Paige Sterling with all his heart and eyes.

Sonny Chambers had gotten used to it, thinking Simon Hawthorne’s amazed look all day was just like a bumpkin from the countryside.

And Simon Hawthorne now admired Paige Sterling even more, how she managed to tame his cold and emotionless brother so obediently.

On Saturday, Summer Xavier called Paige Sterling, saying their high school classmates were having a reunion, and asked if Paige wanted to go.

Paige had been on an interstellar trip, by now she had almost forgotten about the things from high school.

Also, during high school, she was only close to Summer Xavier; she didn’t have deep memories of others, so there’s no need to attend the reunion.

However, Summer Xavier wanted to go, and she pouted to Paige Sterling, "Please come, I’m scared to go alone."

Paige spoke coldly without expression, "If you’re scared, just don’t go."

Summer Xavier clung to her arm, swinging it back and forth, years of friendship made her aware of how to make Paige agree.

"Come on, Paige, I haven’t seen my high school classmates for so long, just want to go, if you don’t accompany me, I won’t feel secure."

Summer Xavier genuinely thought that it wasn’t right for Paige Sterling, a girl, to be buried in the lab all day, considering all the radiation in the lab.

So she wanted to pull Paige out for more walks.

For this reason, Julian Hawthorne often tolerated Summer Xavier.

And Paige also couldn’t handle Summer Xavier’s soft complaints in the end, she agreed as Summer managed to convince her, plus she had no important plans for that Saturday.

However, when the day came, Paige drove to pick up Summer Xavier, only to see Summer dressed as if going to a wedding.

Paige’s mouth twitched, seeing Summer Xavier’s bold sitting posture, said, "You even put powder on your thighs?"

"Of course!", Summer Xavier raised her chin, "Do you think I don’t know what those people have in mind for the reunion? Isn’t it just to show off? I’d like to show off, too, let them know I’m whiter!"

During high school, Summer Xavier ran to the beach all day, got tanned like a black butt, indeed, the girls in the class often laughed at her, even gave her a nickname ’Little Black Girl’.

Later, she started to take care of her skin, and it became fairer over time.

But those years when she was called ’Little Black Girl’ were a black history for her.

She insisted on going to the reunion, just to restore her reputation.

"How do I look, Paige, am I pale today?"

Paige followed her lead, saying: "Yeah, you’re the palest, unrivaled."

Summer Xavier was overjoyed.

Then she saw Paige’s complexion, couldn’t help but envy and touched Paige’s face.

Paige didn’t apply any powder, just went out with a bare face, yet she was still glowing white.

This was the real fair-skinned beauty with long legs, a presence that made even women jealous.

She looked at Paige’s outfit, "Paige, you at least have money now, can’t you dress more formally?"

Paige actually went out wearing a sports outfit, showing no burden of being an idol.

Paige was completely indifferent, "Isn’t it just a class reunion? It’s not a banquet."

Summer Xavier chuckled, "Then you’re underestimating the class reunion."

Paige didn’t quite understand this at first, until they arrived at the hotel for the reunion.

The supposedly class reunion looked like a high-end cocktail party at first glance — except for her, everyone was in formal attire, men in suits, leather shoes, expensive watches showing off status, women in evening gowns, with exquisite makeup and striking jewelry, on another level.

At this moment, Paige, being the only normally dressed person, felt completely out of place.

Weren’t we supposed to just meet casually, without being too formal?

Is she the only one who took it seriously?

Though she didn’t fit in with the attire, Paige remained impassive, not taking it to heart.

As soon as everyone saw her and Summer, they surrounded them, speaking one after another.

"Wow, our President Sterling is here, everyone come and greet her."

"Paige, you are now the most successful among us, you were the shining star in the entertainment circle, and even after leaving you’re flourishing in the business world, we old classmates all need to rely on you."
