"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.

But the second time was a lie concocted by Kent.

In Keith's words, the components of that drug were all pretty much the same.

And to quote Stefan, the effects of the drug weren't hard to counter.

Nathan had seen through the ploy early on, and the effect of the poison was only slightly more potent than usual, hence the coughing of blood. But it was not incurable.

He was merely trying to use this opportunity to persuade Janice through their children.

Unfortunately, his plan had failed.

His son had fallen for it. But his wife was not fooled.

And his son-in-law was too astute.

Nathan was somewhat gloomy.

He had always been the wiliest of the bunch, but now there was a sharp son-in-law in the picture.

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.

Nathan sighed, "Janice despises me to the core. Naturally, she wouldn't lift a finger to help me in such a situation. As for Stefan, he listens to his wife. I can't say anything about that. His wife is my precious daughter that I've just found."
