Chapter 1625
Julien got released from his "cell" and taken to the courtyard.The front yard of Lovelace Residence was packed with people as everyone had gathered there.
Julien was looking fit. He stood tall in the middle of the courtyard. Joseph was sitting on a wooden chair. Julien watched as hisfather sipped on his tea.
Aidan was standing respectfully by the side. They had also called on an audience to watch the spectacle that was about tohappen.
Julien felt extremely uncomfortable. His stomach churned.Beyond the walls lay a modern civilization, yet within the confines of their home, it remained a feudal society.
When he was young, he always thought that Mandy's actions weren't justified. She was from the Lovelace family. This was afamily that gave her such a luxurious life. However, she would rather rebel and escape this family. It wasn't worth it at all.
That said, his heart was being swayed right now. He was tempted to follow in Mandy's footsteps."Kneel," Joseph ordered in a cold voice.
Julien straightened his back. He faked a slight smile. "Dad, what century are we in now? We don't even have to kneel when wemeet royalty. Isn't it time that we move on from our feudal ways?"
Joseph froze.
Aidan chided, "Julien! You're the one who was in the wrong. You were the one who put our family to shame. Is this how youapologize?"

When Julien said those words, it felt like his heart was bleeding. It was so painful, as if a part of his heart was being cruelly cutout.
"| will not go to the Taylors’ home in the future. | will never meddle with the Taylor family's affairs again. I've already given in tothis extent. Why must you humiliate me like this? Why do you have to be so overbearing?"
His argument made everyone go silent.
Hierarchy held immense importance within the Lovelace family. No one else other than Edgar Lovelace, Joseph's father, woulddare to go against Joseph himself.
"Julien, your association with the Taylor family has breached our Lovelace standards. This is a grave error!" Aidan interjectedinstantly. His face was red. "Dad has to punish you severely. Otherwise, will you even remember what you've done? Can you?
"In the future, our family's values will lose their significance. Who will continue to uphold them? Who will honor them?""Ah, so you're using me to set as an example to others," Julien scoffed, enraging Joseph.
At this time, their butler had brought the family's tool for discipline to Joseph. In full view of everyone, he said, "Mr. Joseph, hereyou go."
Everyone gasped. Julien's chest tightened.The butler had a whip in one hand. In his other hand was a thick, long wooden stick.
