Chapter 60
Slap! Before he could finish speaking, Alaric was slammed to the ground.}
My father’s hand was still raised in the air.
“You bastard! Shut your damn mouth!“}
The Vale Family was my father’s business partners.
They were also his clients.
There were several massive projects worth hundreds of millions on the line.
If Alaric, this beast, messed it up, I thought my father would cut him into pieces.
Alaric was dumbfounded. He was just about to start yelling.
But he didn’t dare move when he met my father’s fiery gaze.”
He could only look at my mother with a pleading expression.
“M–Mom, save me! You lost me for ten years and now you treat me like this? Boohoo … “>
My mother was so mad that she swayed and nearly fainted.}
“Honey! Quick, take this ungrateful brat to the Vales and apologize!“}
My father grabbed him by the collar, belt in hand and told Uncle Willy to drive to the Vale Family residence.
I poured a glass of water for my mother and helped calm her down.
“Mom, Alaric really needs a good lesson.“>
She nodded heavily, gripping my hand.
“Thalia, thank goodness we have you. You did the right thing by hitting him today!“}]
“If he really did something to Serena, I dare not think … “@
Two hours later, my father returned with a wailing Alaric.§
His backside was beaten so badly.
There was still resentment in his eyes.
Still, he didn’t dare make a peep.
The next day, a video of Alaric getting beaten at the Vales‘ residence started spreading all over the school.”
It showed Alaric kneeling in the Vales‘ living room.
He cried as he apologized to Serena.
My father held a whip and lashed it down on him again and again, not holding back at all.)
Each strike left a red welt.
The students were in an uproar.
They also understood my family’s attitude towards Alaric.}
There was no shortage of people in school who would suck up to the powerful and step on the weak, wanting to curry favor with wealthy families.
I thought Alaric’s time at school would definitely be interesting.
A week later, Alaric’s injuries were almost healed.}
To show that he wanted to break away from me, he demanded that his parents find a separate driver to take him to school.
The last incident had barely passed and now he wanted his own driver?}
My parents flatly refused.”
They told him he could take a taxi if he didn’t want to go with me.
Alaric had two hundred thousand in pocket money each month
He directly hired a car to pick him up and drop him off.”
He was incredibly smug.
Let him gloat; it wouldn’t last long.”
When he arrived at school, he noticed people were acting differently.”
Some looked down on him, some pitied him and some just looked like they were waiting for the show to start.
Still, he didn’t care.
He figured no one could touch him and our parents supported him.!!
And of course, he hadn’t changed one bit.
Just a few days after returning to school, he offended another tall beauty.M
This time, Alaric learned his lesson.
He inquired about the girl’s family background beforehand.
A small, insignificant family wasn’t something to fear.
Morenver they had no business dealings with l Chapter
Moreover, they had no business dealings with our family.
He felt relieved.
After school, he offered to walk her home, but instead tried to take her to a hotel.
He was so bold!
He even said that if she went along with him, he would give her twenty thousand a month to spend freely.” Fortunately, the girl was quick–witted and called the police when Alaric wasn’t paying attention.
Now things were a mess and they went straight to the police station.
My father was so angry that he almost had a heart attack.
He made Alaric kneel outside the door all night.”
This time, Alaric hadn’t provoked just anyone.”
But the school beauty.
Although she didn’t have a family background, she had countless admirers.}
I figured they would “take good care” of Alaric.
Alaric had become entirely the school’s public enemy.
That day during break, I saw a few boys drag Alaric to the back hills of the school.
When he saw me, he yelled loudly for me to save him.”
