"Boss, the son-in-law is too sharp. Janice saw through the game." Kent sighed in resignation, "Even when I told the young master that you coughed up blood again, they didn't fall for it." The fact that Nathan had coughed up blood in the car was true.

Even though he was a part of the family, Nathan was somewhat resentful. The reason was simple: the son-in-law saw through his plan and did not assist him in coaxing Janice.
