In an instant, the atmosphere in the room intensified. The air was chilling to the bone.
Winston's expression was as frigid as the atmosphere in the room. "Mr. Schmidt, are you wishing me to continue being ill?" Jameson chuckled. "You're overthinking it, Uncle Winston. Why would | be so narrow-minded? You are Lyse's father. She is also the woman | love. | sincerely hope that you will live a long and healthy life." Neil stared at him. He knitted his brows together.
Those were words of concern. Yet, they didn't sound like kind words when Jameson uttered them.
"Mr. Schmidt, you are a persistent man indeed." Winston felt his body tightening up. He spoke with a sarcastic yet sharp tone, "But an overly persistent person is just a stubborn person. They'd just end up getting their panties in a bunch.

But if she doesn't have feelings for you, there's nothing that you can do about it." Jameson froze. He felt as if he had just been greatly humiliated.
"Right now, the entire country knows that Lyse and Jasper are madly in love with one another. They are very attached to one another. They're already discussing marriage. Not just anyone would be able to get in between them." Winston just uttered Jasper's name with such friendliness.
Those who didn't know them might even get the impression that they had a close relationship.
It was said that managing the relationship between a mother-in-law and a daughter-in-law was challenging. Perhaps the relationship between a father-in-law and their son-in-law was also a mystery.
Hatred surged within Jameson. He felt bitter. He was about to reply when Winston argued back, "Mr. Jameson, your position is now different from before. You are no longer the same kid who used to follow my daughter around when you were young.
"Lyse already has Jasper now. It's not appropriate for you to still refer to her as the woman you love. That's too indecent.” Some might say that the past incident at the entrance of Heightsnew Villa was equivalent to Winston beating Jameson up. This time, though, Winston was putting out Jameson's last glimmer of hope.
Jameson clenched his teeth. He looked glum. His gaze was sharp and cold.
A moment later, he smiled. "Uncle Winston, | didn't expect you to remember my good deed. Even so, | am still your savior. You don't have to be so cold and cruel toward me, do you? Moreover, | have always been very respectful toward you." Savior? Winston's and Neil's jaws dropped! "Remember the time when you fell into a coma and almost fell into a vegetative state? Didn't Lyse ever tell you that | was the one who brought the medication that saved you just in time? That was how you managed to get out of that life-threatening situation and be saved.” Jameson smiled slightly. "Well, | guess it makes sense for Lyse not to tell you. She only knows to give all the credit to Jasper.” Winston's face turned red. He was ashamed and enraged.
He was being manipulated and oppressed. This feeling made him extremely frustrated. Cold sweat broke out on his back once again. His suit became drenched.
"I will thank you if you were indeed the one who did that." "I know that your sickness isn't easy to handle, Uncle Winston. During the later stages, you would show symptoms like numbness in your limbs and hemiplegia.

"While you were ill, it was so hectic for the Taylors. Lyse bawied hereyes out. It prey heartto see hee fike hat," Jameson sighed. He had a depressed look in his eyes. Winston's hands were on the armrests. His hands were trembling. The look on his face was getting stiffer.
Neil was alarmed at that sight.
"So, this is for the sake of you and your family. Let's make a degh how about that, Jamdsdnplstied his glasses up slightly. He had a sly smirk on his face. Winston asked in an icy tone, "What do you want?"
