Hearing the voice on the other end of the phone, August's face suddenly turned gloomy. He tightened his brows and asked coldly, “I have already booked a hotel for my father to pick up the wind and dust, why did I suddenly return to the old house?" < Seeing to hear the displeasure in August's tone, Bishop lightly explained with a chuckle, "Dad said he wanted to go back to see Grandma first, so he went back to the old house first.” August frowned, said nothing, hung up the phone, and turned to walk back. Seeing this situation, Lucia quickly followed and asked," Mr. Adams , what's the matter?" "The person was picked up by Bishop and returned to the old house." Saying that, they got into the car one after the other, and after instructing the driver, August tilted his head, stared at v-a:v.<* > ji lc »wniuwa se.» her with dark eyes, raised his lips and said, "If you don't want to go with me, I'll let the driver take you alone later, go back.” Although August didn't say a few more words, Lucia could feel the coldness emanating from him. She took a deep breath and said in a businesslike manner, "It's okay, I'll go with you." Hearing that, August didn't say anything more. The black car sped all the way, and an hour had passed when it arrived at the old house. The car stopped in the yard, got out of the car, Lucia quickly followed August and followed him through the gate. When they got to the door, before they even went in, they already heard the sound of conversations coming from inside. The moment she stepped into the door, Lucia saw that August's back stiffened for a moment, and when she came back to her senses, someone had already walked in. She hurriedly followed, and as soon as she looked up, she saw the people sitting on the sofa. Except for the grandmother and Bishop and Bob in wheelchairs next to her, the other sitting on the sofa was a spirited middle-aged man, and he The woman beside her was well-maintained, gracefully dressed, and looked a dozen years younger than the man. Needless to say, these two are August's father Eliot and Bishop's biological mother Christina . Eliot and Christina raised their eyes when they heard the sound, and the moment they saw August, the smiles on their faces closed in unison , especially Eliot, with a bit of coldness in the bottom of his eyes, and looked at August A vaguely. August stepped forward and bowed respectfully to say hello, "Father, Auntie.” Christina hooked her lips and smiled, with a kind look, and said with a smile,” August, sit down, we've been waiting for you for a long time.” "Humph!" Eliot's face sank suddenly, "Who let him sit! Kneel down for me!" Everyone was stunned, and even Bishop next to him flashed a bit of surprise. Grandma was also surprised, and quickly asked,” Eliot, what are you doing! August just came back, and he didn't make any mistakes..." "Isn't he not sure if he made a mistake?" Eliot clenched his fists, the blue veins on his forehead gathered, his sharp and powerful eyes stared straight at August, "Kneel down for me! Hearing the sound, August paused for a moment, and after two seconds, he stepped forward with a blank expression , bent his knees, and knelt down. The man has long hands and feet, so he knelt down like this, with a straight back and a firm face. Except for some wrinkles at the bend of his trousers, there was no embarrassment at all. Lucia felt a little uneasy. He didn’t expect that August would be ordered to kneel by Eliot as soon as he got home . Could it be because of the plan that he would be punished? Eliot got up and asked in a deep voice, "Do you know why I made you kneel!" August lowered his eyes, his profile cut like a knife was as cold as ever, "The leak of the plan is my negligence." "Is there only a plan?" Eliot snorted coldly, "First of all, let's not talk about the project of losing 700 million yuan, and now you are in all kinds of messes outside, and the news of humiliating your family is spreading ! The Adams family will lose money, right?" August frowned slightly and said coldly, “Father, it's my fault.” Lucia stood aside, like a transparent person, and her heart sank when she heard him take all the mistakes like this. Eliot came back from abroad this time, specifically for this matter. Judging from this posture, he would definitely not end well. Sure enough, his icy voice sounded, "Since you admit it, then say it yourself, should you be punished!” 5/9 55 56% 09 54 0 no < August lowered his eyebrows and raised his lips, "You should be punished.” Eliot was furious, and immediately ordered his subordinate Joey, "Family law please!” Joey couldn't wait, and immediately went to get the family law. The beef tendon leather whip is more than one meter long, with a layer of fine barbs on it. Once the whip goes down, even the belt is hooked up, and it will be bloody. The grandmother on the side saw the whip in Joey's hand, her face turned pale with fright, she hurriedly looked at Eliot , and persuaded,” Eliot, you can't do anything at home..." The Adams family's ancestors have been big families for several generations. Naturally, they have their own patriarchal law, and the family law is also passed down. This whip has also been touched for many years. This time Eliot asked family law to punish August, which was really angry. Lucia was also frightened. She stood where she was, not taking a step forward, not taking a step back. She was in an 6/9 66 67% 09 5510 no < Chapter 2t 9 Shodd I be Punished’ . « embarrassing situation, and her heart was still hanging in her throat because she was worried about August. But she was an outsider after all, so she couldn't intervene , nor was she qualified to take care of it. Facing grandma's dissuasion, Eliot said firmly, "Mother, don't worry about this.” He took the whip from Joey's hand and looked at August coldly . Christina on the side also quickly persuaded,” Eliot, although August made a mistake this time, it is not irreversible. Forget it this time, but I can't really make a move..." It sounded like he was speaking for August, but he subtly confirmed August's guilt, and emphasized his mistake again in front of Eliot. Not only did he not relieve the anger in his heart, but it made him even more angry. “No one is allowed to take care of this matter!" Eliot's complexion was ashen, his eyes swept over August, who was kneeling on the ground, and he asked coldly,” The «10 century-old heritage of the Adams family is not for you to squander! Think about how it was back then. Promise me! You said it yourself, should you be punished!" August's eyes flickered slightly, and after a moment's pause, he said resolutely , "It should be punished, I have no objection.” As soon as these words came out, there was no room for the matter to return to the world Eliot clenched the handle of the whip tightly, his eyes flashed coldly, and he walked over. He seemed to hesitate for a moment, but in the next second, he raised his hand, the whip as soft as a water snake pierced the air, and threw . it directly on August's back with a sound of "Boom!" the sound of "Crack!”, August's body shook, but his waist was still straight, and the barbs on the whip ripped through his coat. "Hey!" The second whip went down, and the clothes on the back were even more torn, and blood was seeping out. Grandma's face turned pale, and she couldn't bear to raise her hands to cover her eyes, while Christina on the other side couldn't help but raise the corners of her lips, and there was a hint of elation and excitement in her eyes. As soon as she returned to Austos City to see such a good show, she was naturally relieved. On the other side, Bishop's expression remained the same, but his eyes were fixed on August's straight waist. There are a total of ten whips in the family law, and it is not a joke to hit such a whip. When the third whip was hit, August's body had already begun to tremble slightly.
