“Umm…”
Seeing the thick cane, Francine and Stefan could not help but gulp.
“Isn’t this cane a bit too thick?”
Francine asked Adie cautiously.
Although she had already decided to sell her son out to get in her grandchildren’s good books, she had never
beaten Stefan before, and now she had to beat him with such a thick cane? She could not do it.
“It’s not. This is just a normal cane. Mommy said caning is good for building character. The harder you hit, the
better the person’s character would turn out. Your son is bullying the weak now because you didn’t cane him
enough when he was young.
Adie tried to convince Francine with logic and reasoning.

hits you with this a lot?”
“No.”
Adie said seriously, “Mommy just uses it to intimidate me. She rarely beats me. She said other people’s children get
caned with this, but I don’t because I’m a good boy and I never do anything bad. Unlike your son, who did so many
bad things. You should give him a proper beating!”
Stefan: “……”
‘What a filial son you are, Adie!’
“You’re right. A pampered child is a spoiled child. He turned out like this because I spoiled him. He needs a beating.”
Francine took the cane from Adie and walked over to Stefan. She lowered her voice and said, “Brat, cooperate with
me to make my grandchildren happy.”
Stefan’s handsome face stiffened. He said coldly, “You’re gonna beat your own son to please your grandchildren?
Are you out of your mind?”
“There’s nothing I can do about it. It’s your fault for doing all those bad things. You deserve it.”
“What bad things did I do?”
“You held their Mommy under you and tried to bite her. You’re getting off easy with just a beating.”
Stefan was embarrassed and exasperated. “I know the kids don’t understand what happened, but don’t tell me you
don’t. Stop fooling around and just go home!”
“No way! I finally have the grandchildren that I’ve been dreaming of. I’m not leaving them…”
Francine approached Stefan and mocked, “You little brat, you always seem as indifferent to women as a monk, but
you actually did those things in secret and have even produced two kids. This calls for a celebration! I’ll go home
and discuss with your father about holding a grand banquet that lasts three months. We’ll also give everyone in

Stefan facepalmed and said, “Mom, I beg you, please go home and give the children and I some space.”
He actually did not plan to let Francine know about the children because he was worried that Francine would make
a big deal out of it and scare Renee away.
After all, his relationship with Renee was still very tense. A single disagreement was all it would take for them to
become enemies. He did not want this matter to be a topic of gossip for everyone in Beach City.
“What space do you need? Having children is a good thing. There’s no reason to keep it a secret. But who’s the
mother? Hurry up and tell me or I’ll hit you!”
Francine lightly hit Stefan twice with the cane and said curiously, “I can tell from the children’s temperament that
their mother has very good genes. She’s definitely not an ordinary woman. She’s a hero that saved our family, so
we must welcome her into the family with a proper wedding.”
“Don’t you worry about that. I’ll deal with it.”
Stefan was annoyed.
