His stern gaze made the other three kids nod immediately.

“Get out!" Matthew turned to Adkins and ordered one more time.

Under his dad's stern glare, Adkins had no choice but to get out of the quilt.

"Get out of the bed!" Matthew specified.

Reluctantly, the boy obeyed once again.

“Kneel down!"

Adkins, however, didn't move this time.

"Dad, you're insulting me. Only a coward will kneel, and I'm a man. I won't kneel!"

“I'm your father! A man can kneel to heaven and earth, or to their parents!" Matthew said.

Biting his Lips, Adkins glared at his father.

"No matter what, I won't kneel."

Fury was written all over Matthew's face.

“Do you want to have a taste of the Hilton family's punishments?" Everyone always said that his eldest resembled him the most, but Matthew didn't think so. A three-year-old Matthew wouldn't have the guts to borrow two million dollars in his father's name.

As soon as Erica realized the situation was only getting worse, she rushed over and hugged Adkins. Looking at Matthew, she asked, "What on earth happened? If you have something to say, just say it. It's not appropriate to simply hit someone." She didn't want to stop her husband from disciplining their son, but she wanted to know what Adkins did first.

Matthew glanced at her and explained in a low voice, "Your son borrowed two million from someone in my name!"

The other three kids all gasped. It turned out that their brother's money was borrowed after all.

Erica was shocked to learn that. After requesting the boy to look at her, she asked him seriously, "Is that true what your father said?"

Adkins didn't deny.

"Yes, it is. Mom, I didn't steal anything. I used my own skills to borrow this money, and I never said that I wouldn't pay it back. Why should Dad punish me for it?"

At that moment, Erica felt a headache coming. Still, she patiently explained to the child, “That's right, but how can you go out and borrow money at such a young age? You should come to your parents if you need money."

“Mom, you don't know the whole story. Dad knew we needed money from the beginning, but he didn't give it to us. Instead, he said we should earn money on our own!" the boy explained.

Matthew snorted, "You think that borrowing money makes you capable of earning it?" Looking at Adkins, Matthew could finally understand why

Carlos was more loving towards his daughters than his son. He realized now how annoying having a boy could be at times.

His son had sold his phone number to a woman and asked that same woman to call him, causing his wife to be mad.

Adkins looked back at his father in disgust and answered, "Indeed, I feel capable. But since you doubt my skills, you can pay the money back for me. If I'm going to be punished like this, I won't accept it!"
