Find me in your labyrinth (Stella and Jonathan)
Chapter 848

The room was spotless, with clean cupboards, coffee tables, and floors. The sofa looked as if it were brand new. On the balcony, Zachary's clothes which had been left unwashed for more than three days were

now cleaned and dried.

Four cleaners stood neatly, smiling at him.

Xavier looked at Norah abruptly, "What's going on?"

"A dirty room breeds germs, which isn't good for your wound. So I hired cleaners. Doesn't a clean room make you feel good?" Norah replied with a tilted head and a smile.

What could Xavier say? He just politely greeted the cleaners, "Thanks!"

"No problem at all!" The cleaners responded in unison.

Xavier then headed to the bathroom.

Norah asked the cleaners to tidy up Xavier's room. Xavier's bedroom was indeed the cleanest and neatest of them all, the only issue being the heavy smell of smoke.

The cleaners air-purified the room. When one of them went to fetch water from the sink, they saw Xavier washing his hands. The cleaner was a woman in her forties. She glanced at Norah in the living room on the phone and said to Xavier, "Hey, young man!"

Xavier was taken aback. Was she talking to him?

The cleaner was enthusiastic, "Your girlfriend is really nice, looks good and has a nice temper!"

It clicked for Xavier that she was talking about Norah.

"You're not bad-looking yourself, but the full face of beard makes you look old. You don't match the young girl."

Xavier frowned, unsure of what she was getting at.

"My daughter's shop sells excellent razors. They're not brands, but they work just as well and cost half as much. If you buy one, I guarantee you'll look handsome and young with a clean shave!" So, whether he matched Norah or not depended on a little electric razor!

"Listen to me, young man. You need to get a razor, otherwise, what if your pretty girlfriend finds someone else?" She lowered her voice, "Not to mention, it must be inconvenient when you two kiss, right? You could hurt her with your beard!"

As the conversation became more absurd, Xavier didn't know what to say. He quickly left the bathroom.

"Young man, I've been around the block. What I'm saying is for your own good!" The cleaner continued to follow him.

Xavier turned back, feigning anger, "If you keep pushing, I won't pay you!"

The cleaner was unfazed, "Your girlfriend has already paid!"

"What's going on?" Norah, still on the phone, noticed the two standing there arguing and looked over curiously.

Afraid that the cleaner might say something inappropriate in front of Norah and cause embarrassment, Xavier turned to the cleaner and said, "Enough, I'll buy it. How much is it? I'll transfer you the money!" "It's not expensive at all!" the cleaner replied immediately with a smile. She pulled out her phone and showed him the payment QR code, "Since you two are so good-looking, two hundred will do. I usually sell them for two fifty!"

Xavier thought, thank you for giving me a fifty off!

The cleaner took the money, her smile even more genuine, the wrinkles at the corners of her eyes deepening, "Young man, I wish you two a long and happy life together, and may you have a child soon!" Xavier raised his hand to stop her well-wishing, "You can get back to work now."
