Corey gasped in shock, "Word by word?"

Victor barked at him, "Of course! Nonsense!"

"Uh, Mr. Josh said... marrying that bitch is the dumbest decision you made in your life." Sᴇaʀ*ᴄh the (F)indNƟvᴇl.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

"Oh, fuck him!" Victor punched his bed and glowered in resentment. "The dumbest choice I made in life was putting unconditional trust in him, nurturing and promoting him to the role of company president. It was my error in judgment."

At the end of the day, Victor acknowledged that he had made unwise decisions as he recalled the events that had happened at the cocktail party.

Josh had schemed against him and Lily but kept it a secret for years, which led to his reputation loss and created a crisis for the Schmidt Group. He was suddenly gripped with the murderous urge to face off against Josh in the detention center.

"Mr. Josh also claimed that Mr. Jameson did not come home to Solana City from Kontina to help you out. Mr. Jameson has always been sharpening his knife and bidding his time to avenge his mother and take over the Schmidt Group."

Given the seriousness of the situation, Corey had no choice but to repeat Josh's last message word by word. "Mr. Josh stated that it might appear that the Taylors had caused Mr. David and Ms. Daisy's misfortune, but in fact, Mr. Jameson was behind everything.

"Now that Mr. Josh and his siblings are taken down, he believes you will be Mr. Jameson's next target."

Victor jolted in shock as his face paled. Thinking back, the scandals and troubles that plagued the Schmidt Group started at the time of Jameson's return.

Victor was in the dark when his three children joined forces to hurt Lily, but he dealt Lily and Jameson the heaviest blow by believing in malicious and dubious claims, dumping the mother and son at the dangerous Kontina for 15 years without once checking on them.

A chill traveled down his spine. Any trace of guilt he felt for Lily and Jameson was swiftly replaced with fear and rage.

All of a sudden, the door to Victor's room opened. Jameson showed up with a frosty expression on his good-looking face. The smiling look in his eyes was rather unnerving.

Victor flinched and instinctively tried to hide the agreement in his hand, but it was too late. Jameson had seen the document the moment he entered the room, which fueled his viciousness.

"Why are you here?" Victor maintained his composure as he handed the agreement to Corey.

"Dad, I'm your only son left." Jameson wore a gleeful expression. "Who else is going to visit you, if not me?"

He wandered over to the couch and took a seat. Shaking his legs, he appeared cocky as he had the upper hand. He did not accord the patriarch of the family any respect.

Victor said, "I'm fine. It's a minor health issue. You may go."

"Aside from visiting you, I have another update for you." Jameson said leisurely, "Tomorrow, I'll pick Mom up and move her into the Schmidt Manor."

"No! I object!" Enraged, Victor promptly shot down the notion. "I am no longer her legal spouse. It's not right for us to live under the same roof. Besides, your mom is sick in her mind. She should be housed at the hospital. What if she relapses?"

"Don't you recognize your mistakes?"

"I should be the one who asks that question!" Though guilty, Victor experienced a moment of clarity, perhaps due to his outrage. "What was your intention behind the revelation at the family gathering? You mus have planned this out.

"You plunged the company into a crisis and showed up as a savior at the most crucial moment. Then, you defeated Josh, won my trust, and forced me to appoint you as the company president.

"It's true that a person's character is largely established by the time they are very young. You jerk... You've been a cunning rascal since you were a kid, and nothing has changed. I nearly walked into your trap!' Jameson scoffed indifferently. "Dad, are you confused because you are sick or senile? I have nothing to gain by putting the company in trouble. I bet it was Josh who sent you the message, wasn't it? After all, you aren't bright enough to come to that conclusion."

Victor felt a pain in his chest from the anger. "You-"

"Since we're caught in this situation, I suggest you listen to me. Otherwise, please find someone else to solve the crisis." Jameson's suggestion sounded more like a threat.

Smirking, he warned provocatively, "If you agree to welcome Mom to Schmidt Manor and transfer Josh's stocks to me, I will resolve the company crisis for you. Not only that, I will inject a huge amount of capita into the company. It all depends on your choice."
