I was slapped by surprise and felt dizzy.

The group of men around him joined in to insult me.

"You look so young. Why do something like this and destroy other's family? "

"That's right. Impregnated another man's wife and engaged on their wedding anniversary. How could he do this!"

"Guys, the law can't punish scum like him. We'll punish him!"

Then, several burly men bound me with rope.

After failing to break free, I suppressed my anger and tried to explain,

"What impregnating someone? You've got the wrong person! Release me now!"

Normally, I would have fought back.

But John was an old employee who under my father. I didn't want to make things worse because of a misunderstanding.

I thought my warning would make John regain consciousness.

Unexpectedly, he grew even more angry.

"How dare you impregnate my wife and deny it? If I hadn't seen your photo with my wife on the Instagram, I would still be kept in the dark."

After that, John showed a screenshot from an Instagram's post to me.

In the screenshot, I had posted a photo on Instagram announcing that I was going to be a father,

It was an intimate photo taken when I touched the belly of my fiancee, Sherry.

I also was seeking opinions on Instagram how to arrange today's engagement ceremony sincerely. After all, there are double joys.

At this moment, I suddenly realized that the scumbag that John had accused of impregnating his wife was me.

He must be wrong. I had been with my fiancee-Sherry for more than a year. She had just accepted my proposal. How could she become another man's wife?

I tried to keep calm down as I explained.

"Uncle John, you must be wrong. This is my fiancee, Sherry, not your wife."

John coldly snorted and threw a certificate in front of me.

"Until now, you still refuse to admit it, I'll let you more desperate!"

"Sherry is my legal wife!"

I was stunned when I saw the photo on the marriage certificate.

Because that was indeed my fiancee, Sherry.

Even if they looked alike, having the same name seemed to be impossible, right?

I struggled and shouted loudly,

"Uncle John, there must be some misunderstanding. Could you please release me and let's have a good talk?"

"Even if I'm a scum, I wouldn't dare to steal a woman from my father's old employee."

John glanced at me and sneered.

"You used this mouth to cheat on my wife, right? Now, you want to pretend the heir of our CEO. How dare you!"

"Damien has been abroad for a long time and just returned tonight. Take a look at yourself first. How can you pretend to be the heir of the Brown Group."

As soon as John finished speaking, I suddenly remembered that no one else knew that I had returned except my father.

To better prepare for taking over the company, I decided to hide my identity and work as an intern within the company for a few months.

However, unexpectedly, Sherry got pregnant during this time.

Knowing this, my dad asked me to end my internship early and arranged a party.

Not only just to introduce me, but also to announce my engagement to Sherry.

Before being with Sherry, she said that she had a failed marriage.

But she chose to divorce because of domestic violence.

At that time, I only focused on empathizing with her, unaware that she didn't get divorced at all.

Now, her ex-husband came to insult me and spread rumors about something that I had never done before.

Thinking of this, I was so angry and my face turned cold.

"When Sherry was with me, she said she had divorced you."

"By the way, I'm indeed James Brown's son-Damien. If you don't believe me, I can call my dad now."

However, John took out my phone and stuffed it into his pocket.

"Thinking of calling help? You have the guts to seduce my wife, but you don't have the guts to admit it?"

"Guys, stop talking. Today, I'll let this bastard see what will happen if he cuckolds others!"

After that, John swung his baseball bat viciously at my calf.

Because my hands and feet were tied, I was hit by such a bat without resistance.

The intense pain caused me to inhale sharply.

But John seemed to unsatisfied, so he dragged me off the bed.

Enduring the severe pain, I shouted.

"Are you ignoring the law? Aren't you afraid of taking criminal responsibility?"

John sneered.

"What a joke! Backed by the Brown Group, even if I kill you today, no one dares to intervene!"

At that moment, a set of car keys fell out of my pocket.

John's eyes sharpened. He grabbed the car key and shouted.

"This son of a bitch is driving a Maybach."

"The money I earn so hard is now in the pockets of this pretty boy!"

"Guys, smash his car!"

The group of burly men went downstairs and attacked the Maybach parked at the door.

This car was an engagement gift from my dad. It was the first day I drove it out.

In an instant, I was overly shocked.

"Stop! If you smash my car, I'll make you pay everything!"

However, John swung a bat directly at the window of car.

"You're just an intern. Where did you get the money to buy a Maybach ?"

"This must be my wife's money. They all come from me. I can smash it if I want!"

I watched my new car turn into scrap metal all of a sudden.

I shouted at the receptionist in the distance at the top of my voice.

"Quick! Call the police! Please help me call the police!"

But these people just coldly watched, and no one helped me call the police.

After that, John pushed me into a van.

I screamed desperately.

"Where are you taking me?"

Impatiently, John kicked me.

"Don't you want to get engaged with my wife? In a while, I'll turn your engagement party into a funeral!"

I stared at him grimly.

"You'd better not to do this, or I will definitely make you pay the price!"

However, my warning seemed like a joke to John.

He pressed the phone camera against my face and mocked.

"My followers, this son of a bitch is quite stubborn. Even though, one of his legs was broken, he's still here threaten me,"

The others in the car also laughed.

"It seems that he still suffered less. How dare he threaten us? Doesn't he know how powerful Mr. John is? Even the police come, they'd have to show respect!"

Soon, the van stopped in front of a five-star hotel.

John kicked me out of the car and dragged me to the door of the most luxurious banquet hall in the hotel.

There, amid red rose decorations, was poster of Sherry and me.

John approached and poked a hole in the poster with his bat.

Since it was still early, the company executives and my relatives hadn't arrived yet.

In the banquet hall, there were only a few staff members and a bunch of unfamiliar old men and women.

As soon as they saw me, they immediately pointed at me and started cursing.

"John, is this the bastard who made Sherry pregnant?"

Tut! John spat in disgust.

"Yes, that's him. He even wants to pretend to be the son of our CEO. Why doesn't he take a look at himself in the mirror? How dare he!"

An old woman with wrinkles stepped forward and kicked me.

"How dare you cuckold my son? Do you want to die early?"

"John, after you deal with this bastard, don't forget about that bitch and the child she carried!"

John humphed.

"Mom, don't worry. I won't let any of them easily off!"

Soon, I was kicked several more times.

"Just an intern, dares to seduce John's wife!"

"Yeah, but if we beat him to death, will we be caught?"

"Don't worry. With the Brown Group's protection, no one dares to punish John."

Listening to these people's insults, I suddenly felt dazed.

Because John in front of me was completely different from the one in my memory.

At work, he was diligent and reliable. In daily life, he pampered his wife and took care of family.

My father said that a man who treated his family well must be reliable.

That was exactly what the company needed.

My dad even planned to promote John to be the vice president of the company at my engagement party.

That way, he would be able to help me manage the company better.

However, I didn't expect that he would act so arrogantly in the name of my father.

Even his family wantonly trampled and insulted other people's dignity.

I looked at the crowd in front of me and spoke coldly,

"What's wrong with being an intern? Should an intern be insulted by you?"

"Everyone is equal before the law. If the CEO of the Brown Group finds out about this, not only will he fire John, but he will also personally send him to the jail!"

Hearing my words, John's mother sneered.

"John is the right-hand man to Mr. Brown. Tonight, he will be getting promotion. I heard that the Mr. Brown will give a big villa as a reward. Dealing with you, an intern, is nothing!"

"With the Brown Group's support, even the police have to respect us. You, without any background, dare to seduce John's wife. You have no idea of your status."

I was incredibly shocked when I heard those arrogant words.

If I hadn't experienced it myself, I wouldn't have known that John, whom I respected since childhood, was so arrogant outside.

My dad, a CEO of a public company, was always cautious in every aspect.

However, John, a general manager, was even more arrogant than my dad.

Noticing that I was in a daze and speechless, John, with a baseball bat in hand, mocked.

"After I solved the problem, Mr.Brown might even award me another big villa. He highly appreciated someone like me who prioritized family. "

"While the dinner hasn't started yet, let's quickly deal with the bastard. The CEO's son will be here soon. He is going to take over the company and has a closer relationship with me. But he is innocent, in the future, the Brown Group will be under my control!"

The so-called honest man in my father's eyes was just a fake public image of Jack.

It was unimaginable that my father, after years in business world, had also been deceived by John.

Looking at his insolent behavior, I shook my head.

"The punishment is fake. You just want to take this opportunity to establish your authority. Mr. Brown is not stupid. Do you think he won't see through your little tricks?"

After he was be touched a raw nerve, John's face turned dark and cursed.

"You bastard, impregnated my wife, and now you're cursing me as well."

"Guys, isn't he just using his face and mouth to seduce my wife? Today, we'll destroy them. Let's see how arrogant he can be in the future!"

Then, several strong men raised their bats and knives began to attack me.

Countless bats rained down my body.

Someone even raised a knife and slashed my face and chest.

I struggled desperately, but John hit me on the head with a baseball bat.

Suddenly, the blood ran into my eyes, blurring my vision.

At this moment, an anxious voice came into my ears.

"Damien!"

I struggled to look up and saw that it was Sherry.

She ran over, grabbed the baseball bat from John's hand.

"John, what are you doing?"

John already was unstoppable, he became even angrier after seeing Sherry.

"I was planning to teach this bastard a lesson before dealing with you, bitch. But here you are, come to me by yourself."

With that, John pushed Sherry without mercy.

She reeled back and fell heavily to the ground.

Witnessing this, I was stricken with terror.

Although Sherry lied to me, the child she carried was mine.

I was the only child of the Brown family. So were my father and my grandfather. When my father learned that Sherry was pregnant, he was extremely happy.

He didn't even mind her getting married before.

Personally, I cherish this child very much.

Yet now, I could only watch helpless as Sherry fell to the ground.

Shortly after, blood flowed out from between her legs.

I shouted at the people around at the top of my voice,

"Quick! Call an ambulance!"

But none of the staff around them responded.

Beside them, John laughed out loud.

"God blesses me. This is the fate of the bastards!"

Looking at Sherry lay on the ground and groaned in pain, I was furiously indignant.

"John, this is a human life. Aren't you afraid of facing consequences?"

Struggling to get up, I seized the chance when John didn't pay attention and fiercely bite his calf with my teeth.

John felt the pain and kicked me away. His face contorted in fury.

"The son of a bitch dared to bite me. Brothers, cripple him!"

The group of men began to punch and kick me again.

While John ruthlessly beat me, he didn't forget to interact with the audience in the live broadcast.

"Followers, this son of a bitch is indeed a dog, daring to bite me? Today, I'll cripple his mouth and see how he dares to bark in the future!"

The real-time comments from audiences flied across the screen like bullets.

"Good job! I'm so satisfied!"

"Exactly. Such scum should be beaten to death directly to rid society of harm."

"Even if he didn't die today, I will throw rubbish when I see him in the future!"

All kinds of small gifts also floated in the live broadcast.

Seeing the gifts, the group of men became more enthusiastic to beat me.

Last month, I accidentally injured my spine while skydiving.

Now, with both old and new injuries.

Intense pain swept through my body, and my vision had started to blur.

Just then, I heard John answer a phone call.

After hanging up, he asked the others to stop.

"Brothers, the company's dinner party is about to begin. The CEO's son will be here soon. Hurry up and dispose of this bastard. Don't dirty everyone's eyes."

Just as John finished speaking, my father James Brown pushed open the doors and entered the banquet hall with company executives.

I saw a familiar figure in the crowd and struggled to rise.

However, John kicked me away.

He and a large group of men blocked me and Sherry, who had fainted.

Seeing my father coming in with a group of people, John looked surprised.

"President, why are you here? "
