Ava snatched the ruler from Frank. Afraid of hurting her, he gave it to her directly.


    Nona begged for mercy on her brother''s behalf. "Daddy, I''ll check Cyril''s homework in the future. | will make sure that he


    completes his homework every day."


    Seeing that his sister was begging for mercy, Cyril suddenly admitted his mistake. "I was wrong. There won''t be a next time."


    Grace was enraged as she said, "If you had admitted your mistake earlier, you wouldn''t have suffered so much. Learn from Nona


    in the future.”


    Grace was also angry this time. She knew that her grandson would ruin himself if this continued, so it was not toote to correct


    him.


    Frank stared at his son with his hands on his hips. He was so angry that he almost vomited blood. He did not expect to be


    angered by his son to the point of almost having a heart attack one day. He exhaled and said, "Firstly, from today onwards, your


    phone will be confiscated. Secondly, your homework must be checked by Nona before you can sleep. If it''s toote, bring it over


    for me to check. Thirdly, you''re grounded. You are not allowed to attend any gatherings. You''ll be released when you score at


    least 1200 points.”


    1200?


    He had spent a lot of effort to get 650 points. His father was not being realistic.


    "Dad, do you have any misunderstandings about my results? | can agree to your first few conditions, but you set the target too


    casually. Also, would you even understand if | let you check my homework?" Cyril muttered thest sentence very softly.


    Just as Frank was about to re up again, Ava hurriedly held Frank''s hand tightly and rubbed his palm. Frank''s tone softened a


    little. "1200 points is not negotiable. My results are more than enough to check your homework. If you have the time to worry


    about me, you might as well spend more time thinking about how to improve your results.”


    Frank knew that his son could get in. Hisputer skills were perfect, so there was no way he was stupid.


    William urged, "Alright, it''s settled then. Listen to your father. Your father has also thought about this target carefully. 1200 it is.


    Cyril, I think highly of you as well. Go up and finish yesterday''s homework. Nona, go and help your brother check his homework


    today. If he doesn''t know how to do it, teach him."


    Nona agreed and said softly, "Okay, Grandpa. Let''s go, Cyril."


    She pushed her brother upstairs. Cyril held his butt and struggled to walk upstairs. Nona wanted to help him, but he refused.


    Upstairs.


    Cyril slowly sat down. He only sat on half of his butt, while the other half was raised. He did not dare to sit down fully. He used


    his hand to support himself. Nona felt a little pitiful. She helped her brother take out his homework and spread it out on the table.


    She then stuffed the pen into her brother''s hand and looked at the nk papers. "Cyril, hurry up. There are quite a few papers.”


    Cyril picked up the pen and cursed, "Damn you, Harper. Of all things, why did you invent grounding? You''re going to kill me.


    Uncle is too strict. Why did he ground you?"


    "Hurry up, Cyril. It''s gettingte.”


    "Nona, why don''t you let me copy your paper? Copying is faster than teaching. That way, you can sleep earlier too."


    Nona felt that her brother was itching to be beaten again and rejected him sternly. "No, do it yourself. You just have to do it until


    dawn. Daddy will apany you after | fall asleep.”


    Cyril looked at his sister''s determined gaze and sighed. "Sigh, there''s so much to do. We have already finished nine years of


    compulsory education. So why do we still continue to twelve years of education? Studying is too troublesome.”


    "It''ll be a lot faster if you spend your time doing homework instead of talking."


    With his sister watching him, Cyril had no choice but to lower his head and do his homework seriously. Nona sat at the side and


    looked at him methodically. If there was anything wrong, she would point it out directly in case she missed itter. When her


    brother did something, she would check it too.


    Downstairs.


    The entire family was discussing how to save Cyril. Upstairs, Cyril was thinking about how toe up with countermeasures. He


    was thinking as he did the questions.


    Grace nced at the other three and gave her opinion. "Don''t let Harper and Cyril stick together when they''re in school. Nothing


    good will happen if these two children stick together. They''re either nning to copy others" homework or thinking of shortcuts.”


    William nodded in agreement. "Grace is right. It''s not that Harper isn''t good. It''s mainly because Harper is not hardworking at all.


    He feels that he doesn''t have to work hard since he still has three younger brothers behind him and he is pretty smart. Cyril was


    a little naughty when he was in primary school, but he was very quiet. Now, he gives a lot of excuses and his temper is like


    Frank''s. There''s no way around this. He inherited it."


    Frank was at a loss for words.


    Grace continued, "Edward has already implemented the n for Harper. The main reason why Harper''s results can be improved


    is because of his attitude.”


    Ava said, "I agree with Mom. Harper is grounded now so we''ll ground Cyril too. We should be able to change Cyril back."


    Frank made a rule. "Since it''s been decided, no one is to go back on their words. Cheating will not happen with me around.”


    William was speechless. He thought that Frank might as well have called him out.


    Grace also turned to look at William. In terms of education, Grace stood on her son''s side. Ava lowered her head. She was also


    involved in the cheating.


    A few secondster, seeing that no one said anything, Grace made the final decision. "This matter is settled then. We''ll listen to


    Frank''s arrangements."


    Ava whispered in a negotiating tone, "Frank, can you not beat him so fiercely in the future?" Her heart ached a little as his hand


    seemed to be swollen.


    Frank almost lost his cool when he met Ava''s pleading gaze. He remained silent for a while before he persisted. "I won''t hit him if


    he doesn''t make a mistake."


    In the past, he had beaten the children up secretly. Today, he had beaten him up openly in front of the entire family.


    After the rules were set downstairs, Cyril had already finished a test paper upstairs. Nona realized that it was not that her brother


    did not know how to do it. In fact, he did the questions quite quickly and he did them quite well. It was not that bad. It was just


    that he did not know how to answer some questions because he was sleeping during ss. She only needed to exin a little


    for him to understand them.


    After finishing the first paper, Nona checked thest two questions.


    Cyril took out his phone from the drawer and said to his sister, "I''m just checking if there''s any news in the group since my phone


    will be confiscatedter on.”


    Nona''s heart softened and she did not stop him. She spread out the Arillion test paper in front of her brother and asked him to do


    itter.


    Cyril turned on his phone and read the chat history from the day. When he flipped to his brother''s message, he automatically


    ignored it and pretended not to see it.


    He guessed that his brother must have found out that he hadn''tpleted his homework, so his brother didn''t let him attend the


    gathering. Even if he wasn''t excluded, he couldn''t go out now. After all, he was grounded.


    When he thought of the word ‘grounded’, he cursed Harper a thousand times in his heart. If Harper''s phone had not been taken


    by his uncle, he would have sent a message to scold him.


    Two hourster.


    Frank pushed open the door of the room and reached out to his son, who was still doing his homework. He ordered, "Phone."


    Cyril opened the drawer and handed his phone to his father. Then, he turned around and did his homework seriously, looking like


    he had turned over a new leaf.


    Without waiting for their father to ask, Nona reported softly, "Dad, Cyril has alreadypleted some of his homework. He still


    has somenguage homework to do today. He still has to memorize some phrases."


    Frank raised his hand and nced at the watch that Ava had given him. He realized that it was already 9.30 pm. "Nona, go wash


    your face and sleep. Don''t read toote at night. You can continue reading tomorrow. Daddy will keep an eye on him. Go, girls


    shouldn''t sleepte.”


    Cyril suspected that he was picked up from the trash can since he was treated so differently.


    Seeing that his daughter was a little worried, Frank softened his voice and coaxed, "Go ahead. Don''t worry. Daddy won''t hit him


    if he does his homework properly. | promise.”


    Nona saw her father''s promise and nodded. He said to her brother, who was still doing his homework, "Cyril, I''m going to sleep.”


    Cyril responded, "Okay, go ahead."


    Seeing that his sister was a little worried, Cyril added, "I promise that I''ll be able to finish memorizing the phrases when I''m done


    writing the homework and I''ll go to bed right after.”


    After Cyril repeatedly promised and her father promised not to beat Cyril, Nona left Cyril''s room.


    After a while, Ava came again. Frank took a deep breath. With his wife and daughter around, it was not easy to discipline this


    brat. Thankfully, Grace did note.


    "Frank, why don''t | watch him instead?" Ava was also afraid that the father and son would go against each otherter. They were


    both stubborn and unwilling to admit defeat.


    Frank stood up and pinched the base of Ava''s neck. He said to his son who was writing, "I''ll send your mother back to her room.


    Do your homework well, and I''ll be back soon."


    Cyril did not reply and pretended not to hear him.


    Ava was led to the bedroom by Frank. He patted her shoulder and said, "Be good and sleep early. I''ll be back in a while, okay?"


    "Alright, then don''t quarrel with Cyril. He''s actually quite obedient. He might listen to you if you talk to him nicely.”


    "Okay, got it. Go ahead."


    Seeing that Ava had gotten into bed,


    Frank left the room and closed the


    door. He strode to hisespas 6!


    ingne dohiét he entered, the


    Roberts couple came in. Just as they


    were about to ask, the impatient


    Frank stopped them. "What | said just


    now was nonsense." Please read the

    Grace swallowed the words she wanted to say and stuck to her principles. "We''ll go to sleep first."


    William wanted to say something, but Grace pulled him back forcefully.


    At the door, William asked, "Will those two fightter? Cyril will be beaten up againter."


    "That''s enough. Don''t affect your

    He had a soft spot for his grandchildren. Back then, when he was angry at his son, he also beat him up. Now that he saw his


    grandson being beaten up, his heart ached.
