Javier had summoned everyone in the villa to the main hall. Jasper was surrounded by the crowd, isolating him further.
Jasper had shed his suit, unveiling his well-defined muscular physique beneath a thin white shirt. His masculine contours were visible through the fabric,
Javier had wanted Jasper to be punished in front of everyone to humiliate him. To his dismay, Jasper won hearts by standing stubbornly in the middle of the crowd.
The maids around him covered their mouths and blushed, struggling to suppress excited squeals. Even when Jasper was receiving a punishment, he looked as stunning as ever.
When Javier noticed that Jasper had no intention of admitting his wrongdoing, he menacingly waved the whip in his hand, producing a bone-chilling, cracking sound as it struck the ground.
“Kneel!’ Javier commanded.
Jasper’s eyes bore a defiant look as he sneered, “Do you think I would?”
“You-“Javier began.
“I’m standing right here. Whip me if you must. Spare me the nonsense,” Jasper declared, his gaze unwavering and icy.
Whipping had been a longstanding tradition within the family, passed down through the generations.
When Javier was young, Newton had whipped him in front of all the servants with his shirt taken off. Even when Javier had taken charge of the family, this cruel practice had remained unchanged.
Jasper was the latest victim of the arcane rule. He turned around, devoid of expression.
The sound of three whips cracking through the air filled the room. Javier glared at Jasper, putting all his might into delivering the three lashes.
A collective gasp filled the hall as yoices exclaimed, “Mr. Jasper is bleeding!”
The marks on Jasper’s solid back started bleeding and seeping into his white shirt. The flogging
resembled an inhumane punishment from a bygone era.
Sophia and Betty observed the proceedings with great delight.
Jasper, however, remained resolute and unyielding, refusing to bow down in any way.

His flesh had been bared, and the lashes tugged at old wounds. Nerves twitched, and his bones felt as if
they might give away, but he persevered.
“Are you going to admit your fault? Hmm?” Javier continued to lash at him.
“I’m not in the wrong,” Jasper hissed and raised his chin.
“You insolent brat!” Just as Javier was about to strike again, two familiar figures suddenly appeared. A
clear, commanding female voice cut through the tense air. “Stop it!”
All eyes turned immediately to the door. Meanwhile, Jasper was drenched in sweat from the whipping, his
face drained of color.
In his blurred vision, he saw Alyssa. Her beauty acted as an instant shot of adrenaline for him. Even on
the brink of death, her presence had the power to revive him.
“Alyssa …” he mumbled. She stormed up to him. As she drew near, he hesitated for a moment before closing his eyes and collapsing into her arms, wearing a faint smile.
“Jasper!”
