This time, Susan was not faking it. The cane struck Ace with a loud crack.
"Ouch!"
Ace could not remain stoic anymore. He complained, "You're doing it for real?! Stop!"
"Of course I'm doing it for real. If I don't teach you a tough lesson, you'll make the same mistakes again in the future. My precious grandchildren won't be able to see our sincerity either… So just grit your teeth and endure it. Also, you should groan once in a while to make the kids sympathize with you."
Susan gave out thoughtful advice while whipping Ace.
"Makes sense."
Ace agreed with Susan's plan. He started groaning and screaming.
"Ah, it hurts!"
"Ah, I've learned my lesson!"
"Ah, I'm gonna die if you keep hitting me!"
Children were naive and innocent, so as long as he kept acting pitiful, they would forgive him in no time.
However… Joanna was not a child and she was extremely clever, so this trick would definitely not work on her!
