Julien had just finished speaking when Joseph leaped to his feet. His expression was dark. He snatched the stick from the butler and strode toward Julien.
Out of nowhere, he heard a swoosh. He felt a sharp pain in his leg. Without him noticing, two bodyguards had rushed behind him. With a whack of the stick, he ended up kneeling on the ground.
"You ingrate! You've made such a grave mistake! How dare you laugh and talk back to me?"
Joseph glared at him. His eyes were bloodshot. He raised his arm and smacked Julien on the back with the stick. He was merciless. The smack was so loud that it made everyone shudder.
Yet, Julien only let out a muffled cry—a single muffled cry.
Over and over again, he was being beaten on his back. It felt as if he was being hit by large hailstones. Two bodyguards grabbed him by his arm, incapacitating him from fighting back.
His body hurt so badly that he just wanted to curl up into a ball. His vision became blurry. He could even taste his own blood at the back of his throat.
But he was not going to beg for forgiveness. He refused to yield.
Aidan was frightened and alarmed to see how Julien was being beaten up. He turned his face away and didn't dare to continue watching.
"A good child doesn't need to be taught; a misbehaving child deserves a strict teacher. You are uneducated, incompetent, and not even working a decent job. You can't even differentiate the good from the bad. You deserve a beating!"
Upon saying that, Joseph raised his hand high. Then, he swung the stick hard onto Julien's back.
In the next second, a loud crack was heard.
The stick, as thick as an arm, had broken in two!
In an instant, the silent onlookers were in an uproar.
All the blood drained from Julien's charming face. He was as pale as a sheet. It was as if he was in an ice cave. He started shivering uncontrollably.
He bit down on his lower lip. Fresh blood stained his lips. His eyes filled with misery.
"Dad!"
Then, Aidan ran over to Joseph in a panic. He lowered his voice and asked anxiously, "You got to vent your anger by beating Julien up. He has also received the punishment he deserves.
"You should think about this at length. If you continue beating him up… There are so many witnesses. It would be tricky if anything bad happened. You wouldn't be able to get past Grandpa either."
At the end of the day, Aidan wasn't feeling bad for Julien. He only said so in order to save Joseph from embarrassment!
Joseph was taken aback. He released the wooden stick from his grasp.

The readers' comments on the novel: Can’t Win Me Back novel (Alyssa and Jasper)
I am trying to figure out why an author writes one page and it is suppose to be a chapter and then the author gets the audience hooked on the story and just drags it on. Follow the rules please, and at least give the 7 chapters daily. Two chapters every other day is a waste of time. Or just release the book and give us the option to buy it....
Ughhh…can we get more pleeeease! I’m so into this book and literally check daily for updates but it’s only two pages at most. Can you at least do 4 pages a night 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽...
More chapters please the 7 chapters/day would be nice, TY...
Where can i download the remaining chapters?...
Why are we literally only getting one chapter a day?!? I mean can we at least get 4 or something? Irritating🙄...
