The words had barely left his lips when Zachary’s face darkened with fury. He leapt to his feet, snatched a cane from the butler’s grasp, and marched menacingly towards Chasel

“Ugh!”

A sudden, searing pain shot through Chasel’s legs as, out of nowhere, two bodyguards appeared behind him. A strike from their batons sent him crashing to his knees!

“You ungrateful brat! After such a colossal screw up, you have the gall to laugh! The nerve to talk back?”

Zachary’s eyes were bloodshot as he swung his arm violently, the rigid cane whistling through the air before thudding against Chaser’s back with a chilling thump!

But Chasel barely made a sound, just a single grunt.

Blow after blow rained down on him like a hailstorm of agony, his arms pinned helplessly by the bodyguards, his insides screamed as if being twisted into knots. His vision blurred, the taste of blood thickening in his throat.

Yet he refused to plead, refused to bow his head!

The brutal beating made Warner shudder and turn away, unable to watch.

“A first–rate man needs no guidance; a second–rate man responds to stern discipline; but you, an ignorant, aimless, ungrateful wretch, you only learn from a beating!”

With that, Zachary raised the cane high and brought it crashing down with all his might!

The next second, a sharp crack resounded-!

The thick wooden cane, as sturdy as a wrist, snapped in two upon Chasel’s back!

The ensuing silence was broken by a wave of gasps!

Chasel’s handsome face turned ashen, his blood drained until he was nearly translucent, his body trembling uncontrollably as though encased in ice.

He bit down hard on his lower lip, the blood staining his lips a stark, tragic red.

“Dad!”

It was then that Warner rushed over, his voice tense and hushed, “You’ve had your catharsis, and Chasel’s been punished. Let’s think this through for the long term. If you continue, with all these eyes upon us, causing a serious incident won’t end well. Grandpa will be angry.”

In the end, it wasn’t about pity for his own brother.

It was all about preserving the dignity of the head of the Bright family!

Zachary paused abruptly, the broken cane slipping from his grasp.

from the ground, his head hung low, his expression unseen, yet his laughter was mocking and defiant, “Is that all you’ve got? Giving up so soon? Dad, you’re really showing your age. That’s your idea of family discipline? Feels more like tickling. Come on, if
