Life at the Top

Terence’s expression changed. Just as he was about to say something, his father slapped him hard right across the face.

A loud smack resounded throughout the room.

Terence was beyond stunned by the clear, loud smack. The twenty or so relatives in the room had looks of utter shock on their faces as well.

Disciplining one’s child was a shameful act, and it was supposed to be done in the privacy of one’s home. Furthermore, Terence Laine was already in his twenties. He was not at the age where he should be hit by his parents.

However, not only did his father hit him, but he had also done so in front of so many relatives. He did not show Terrence even an ounce of respect. This showed just how fired up he was.

His father lunged over and grabbed the box from Terence. He was so infuriated that his voice was trembling. “What a rebellious son you are. I’ve raised you for nothing!” He shouted out.

He then turned around and handed the box over to Jasper. “Jasp, Terence is only acting like that because I haven’t raised him well. Please don’t hold a grudge against him. How could we sell this to you? How could we ask you for money in return for this gift?” He said apologetically.

he did not accept it. Therefore, he placed the box to the side.
