Chapter 237
It was only a little past five o'clock. No average family would make breakfast so early.
"From now on, breakfast will be ready according to your working hours. Sis must eat breakfast before going to work," Jason said, leading Grace to the table and gently pressing her shoulders to seat her.
Grace obediently sat down and looked at the varied Chinese and Western dishes. She ate a bowl of porridge, some pastries, and drank a glass of milk.
This breakfast was far more sumptuous than the simple two-dollar steamed bun she usually bought. It made her realize she was truly living in the Reed Residence, not her small rented house.
"I'll ask my driver to drive Sis to the Sanitation Service Center later," Jason said.
"It's alright. I'll take the bus," Grace said quickly.
"It's not near the Sanitation Service Center; you'll have to transfer twice. Aren't you afraid you'll be late?" He looked at her casually, confident in his assessment.
Grace was speechless.
After breakfast, the Reed family's driver drove Grace to the Sanitation Service Center in a silver Maybach. Sitting in the car, Grace found it ironic: she had the least prestigious job, yet she was driven to work in such a luxury car.
Grace asked the driver to park 500 meters away, preferring to walk the rest of the way. She didn't want her colleagues to see her arriving in the Maybach, fearing it would spark further rumors.
In the dressing room, she changed into her work clothes. Despite applying ointment, her injured left hand was still painful, hindering even simple movements.
After changing and collecting her tools, Grace began sweeping her and Claire Watts's assigned road. Claire Watts noticed Grace's awkward hand movements.
"What happened to your hand?" she asked.
"Nothing. It just got bumped. I hurt the back of my hand a little," Grace replied.
Claire Watts said, "Then sweep slowly today. Don't use your hand too much. I can sweep more."
"Thank you, Claire Watts," Grace said gratefully. Since partnering with Claire, she'd received much support. Before work, Grace had worried her injury would slow them down.
"Don't mention it. We share these two roads. If I get tired, you can sweep more for me," Claire Watts said.
Around noon, they went to the Sanitation Service Center canteen for lunch. Inside, people discussed the influencer's livestream featuring Jason the previous night.
Normally, any footage showing Jason's face clearly would vanish from the internet. However, despite the influencer deleting the livestream, someone captured and widely spread Jason's segment. Surprisingly, these clips remained online. Many people finally saw what Emerald City's Young Master Reed looked like.
Many marveled at his appearance. While some comments about his good looks already existed online, seeing the video proved his attractiveness far exceeded expectations. Many female netizens expressed a desire to work for the Reed Group, even as clerks, for the chance to see him.
"Jason's scarf and gloves last night were special. A bit old, perhaps. On someone else, they'd look worn, but on him, they were somehow unique."
