"Umm…"
Seeing the thick cane, Susan and Ace could not help but gulp.
"Isn't this cane a bit too thick?"
Susan 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 Ace 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 Susan with logic and reasoning.
Susan stared at the thick cane and frowned. She rubbed the little boy's head and asked, "You mean your Mommy hits you with this a lot?"
"No."
