In the Lap of Luxury novel (Grace and Benjamin) novel Chapter 480

"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 come and check later."

Grace snorted and grabbed his arm. "Go away."

"Remember, you're the one who asked me to go. I actually wanted to help you sweep the stairs."

Grace crossed her arms and said, "There's no need. Just go away. I don't want to see your face."

As soon as she said that, someone came out 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."
