"Wake up, Gracie. It's your first day of school. Don't be late." Outside the bedroom, Victor had his bag in one hand and was knocking on the door with his other hand.

Grace was still drowsy. Even though she had woken up, she was still lazing in bed. She pulled her blanket over her head.

Then, she replied dazedly, "I got it, Victor." Victor looked at his watch and talked to the housekeepers for a bit. Then, he rushed to school.

Grace finally got out of bed after the housekeepers had urged her several times. As expected, she was late to school on the first day.

"Grace Lewis, right? You're late on the first day of school. As a punishment, you have to sweep all the stairs." Grace took the broom and started to clean the stairs reluctantly. When she was about halfway done, Victor suddenly appeared out of nowhere.

He was holding on to the railing above her. With a gloating expression, he said in a very annoying tone, "I told you to wake up so many times, but you didn't listen. And now you're facing the consequences." Grace pursed her lips and swung the broom at his legs. She ignored his words and said, "Move away. I'm sweeping the stairs." Victor laughed out loud and poked fun at her. "Gracie, do your best. The teacher will cand check later." Grace snorted and grabbed his arm. "Go away." "Remember, you're the one who askedto go. | actually wanted to help you sweep the stairs." Grace crossed her arms and said, "There's no need. Just go away. | don't want to see your face." As soon as she said that, someone cout from behind Victor. Xander walked up to Victor and patted him on the shoulder.

"Let's help her out. She won't be able to finish sweeping the stairs by herself." Grace was moved when she heard that. She stuck her tongue out at Victor and said, "Look, Xander is so good to me. You always bully me, Victor." Victor looked at her in disbelief. "Who bullied you? | asked Xander to come. You're so ungrateful!" Grace didn't believe him at all. She turned to Xander and said, "Thanks, Xander." Xander took the broom from her expressionlessly. "Let's get to it. The faster we finish, the faster we can get back to class." "Okay." Grace picked up the pace, but she was still much slower than Xander.

"Slow down, Xander. Wait for me." Xander stopped what he was doing and said, "You can go back to class. We'll handle the rest." Victor protested, "But—" Before he could say anything else, Xander glared at him. Victor was left with no choice when he saw that Xander was on Grace's side.

"Alright. Gracie, go back to class now." Grace wanted to say something else, but Victor didn't give her the chance to do so. He pushed her back toward her class.

After Grace was gone, Victor wanted to say something to Xander but noticed the stairs were almost completely clean.

Victor said, "Xander, you shouldn't take her side all the time. She was born with a silver spoon and has never had a hard day in her life. She's supposed to improve herself at school." "Girls shouldn't have to go through any hardships. We're boys. We should help her." Victor was rendered speechless. He was completely dazed.
