He hoped that Cardin won't say anything about his transcripts, but he was wrong. Cardin exposed him to the entire school, making everyone including his own team and Team RWBY hate him. He leaves Beacon with emotionless look and went to his family's...
Rain was coming down from the dark cloudy sky as Jaune, who returned to his normal state, was panting while standing up as he looks to his father, who was on his back, defeated from their duel. The crowd watches as Ozpin declared Jaune, the winner of this duel.
Ozpin: The winner of this Arc Duel, is Jaune Arc. As stated in the rules of the Arc Duel, Jaune Arc can demand anything from the Arc Clan." Stated the headmaster of Beacon.
The whole crowd was murmuring to each other as what they started to think what Jaune will ask for. They think he'll demand being the new Patriarch of the Arc Clan. He could demand a lot of Lien for his company. Or perhaps he'll demand that John is exiled from the family. The female Arcs and Adrian are very nervous since Jaune's decision will affect not only the clan, but also the family.
Ozpin: "Have you made your decision, Mr. Arc?" Asked the old professor.
Jaune: "...I have." He said as he walks to the broken Crocea Mors, who return to being a sword, and picks up the blade of the sword.
Jaune then walks to his defeated and looks down on him. Jaune slowly raises the blade high in the air, causing everyone to gasp in shock as lighting struck the ground. John, who couldn't even talk, was wide-eyed as he looks up to his son as the family were almost crying at what they're witnessing. Then Jaune brought down the blade down, causing everyone to close their eyes. Once the blade made contact, thunder roared in the sky. After a few seconds, everyone look to the father and son. Instead of seeing a dead John, they saw that Jaune stabbed the blade in the ground, near John's face.
Jaune: "..I demand to be exiled and separate myself from the Arc Clan." He said as everyone gasped in shock with his family crying in tears.
John was also wide-eyed at what Jaune demanded from the clan. As much as he wants to, he cannot denied it. Jaune won the Arc Duel, so he has to honor it.
John: "...granted." He said in a broken and emotionless tone.
Jaune then began to walk away and head to his limo, but a voice stopped him.
John: "Jaune. Wait, please." He said as his family was helping him stand up. "Son, I'm so--" He get's cut off.
Jaune: "We share blood..." He then looks to his father, straight in his eyes. "...but we are not father and son." He said with a serious tone as thunder roared from the sky.
Without saying anything, he continues walking to his company limo, not looking at the emotionally pained-face, his family has. Once he made it to his limo, the chauffeur open the door for him and began to drive back to the Numancia Flamingo headquarters. Inside the limo, Jaune was sitting with his hand crossed on his knees as he begins to think of old memori es with his families. He remembers playing with his older sisters, when he was a kid. Playing with his little sisters when he was a bit older. Spending time cooking with his mom and grandmother. Playing Chess and hunting with his Grandpa. Lastly, when his father was reading huntsman stories to him when he was a toddler. Jaune hasn't noticed that he was actually crying as he ended his relationship with his family, all because of an argument with father and the passing of his grandfather. The limo finally made it to the company and Jaune headed to his office. Since it was late, everyone was at him, leaving him alone in his office. Quickly putting on a new dress shirt and coat, he walks up to his liquor cabinet and brings out a very expensive bottle of Old Rip Van Winkle bourbon.

(I don't own this image and now I want's some bourbon.)
Jaune puts the bottle down and then grabs two glass whiskey cups and pours the bourbon in it. He sets one cup in front of him and the other a few meters away. Jaune raised his cup.
Jaune: "Goodbye, Grandpa. Hope you and grandma watch over me." He said to himself as he drinks his cup while looking at the other cup in front of him.
