Chapter 1086


    Joan gave a bitter smile. "Why should I hate you?" she said. "I did hate you at the start—I hated how


    weak you were, and how you couldn’t take care of us!"


    Here, she heaved a sigh and stood up. "But I no longer hate you. I know that you truly love me, and I


    can feel your sincerity,” she continued. “I also understand your helplessness. You are in this position


    after all. And your father and your family would never have approved of us even back then. Besides, as


    the master of the family, you must always take the Woods family into ount!"


    "Thank you, Joan. Thank you for being so understanding and forgiving!"


    Nash''s eyes reddened. "Or maybe this is


    God’s punishment, to make me, the master of the Woods family, die on a bed instead of a battlefield,"


    he added. "I thought of plenty of ways I could die, but I never thought that I would be poisoned!"


    Joan turned around and looked at Nash, smiling. "Don''t be so pessimistic. Fane''s very skilled in


    medicine. I believe that there will be a way to find an antidote—I believe that he''ll find a way!"


    "I don''t think it''ll be easy. It''s extremely difficult to find a poison that can sessfully take effect on a chi


    practitioner—what more a chi practitioner like me. It means that this poison is very lethal!"


    Nash shed a bitter smile. "Fane probably said that earlier to console me and for me t o know of the


    truth. Are all of you on it too? All of you are probably well aware that there''s no way of finding an


    antidote for this poison. I’m not afraid of dying, to be honest. I''m already contented because I got to see


    you and our brilliant son before I die!"


    "Tsk tsk. Aren''t you being too sentimental for a grown man?"


    No one expected Fane to walk in at this moment. He studied his father, who was lying on the bed.


    "Don''t worry. I didn''t give u p on Fernando even when his condition was so serious," he said. "It’ll be


    difficult to find the ingredients for the antidote, but I’ll get it. I already know how to treat you. So long as


    we get those ingredients, the antidote won''t be a problem!"


    Nash was stunned. "When did you arrive?" he asked Fane.


    Fane was speechless for a while. He thought for a moment before lying, "I had just arrived at the door


    when I heard you voicing your woes, talking about how the poison has no cure to. How little faith you

    have in your son!"


    "Really? Hah. I don''t have to worry about anything with you around. I trust you!"


    Nashughed. He thought for a while before saying, "Oh, right. Why aren''t you asleep yet, Fane? You


    must be here to talk about something!"


    "Bingo. I have something to talk to you about!"


    Fane replied, smiling.


    "All right. I’ll go back and rest first. I’ll give you two some time alone!”


    “Did you use the Cryo Pearl?"


    Nash asked after Joan left.


    "I did. The results are promising. Itpletely encased Fernando in ice!" Co?tent of Dr?manovеls


    Otherwise, he would never ask about the Woods family matters.
