Can’t Win Me Back novel (Alyssa and Jasper) novel Chapter 1604

Jameson no longer intended to conceal his evil intentions from Josh anymore. After all, he couldn't care less for a loser like Josh.

"So… Did you come home to exact your revenge on us? Were you behind what happened to David and Daisy? And now, are you out to get me? You shameless, filthy son of a bitch!" Shaking in anger, Josh was on the verge of a breakdown. "I'll tell Dad all about this! I'll tell him what you've done. He needs to see your true colors and your ugly face."

"I have nothing to do with David's jail sentence. Jasper and Alyssa did that to him. They were also the ones who exposed Daisy. How was I involved in any way?" Jameson laughed at Josh's panicked rant. "Besides, do you think you have any credibility in front of Dad? He can't even stand looking at you. There's no way he'll believe in your nonsense."

His grin sent shivers down Josh's spine. Josh regretted underestimating his rival. He had always dismissed Jameson as an abandoned son sidelined by the family; even if Jameson returned to Solana City, he had no power in the city or within the company and thus did not pose a threat.

To Josh's dismay, Jameson had taken 15 years planning for this day to arrive. Upon Jameson's return to Solana City, he started setting everything up to defeat all of his siblings.

Since when had Jameson, the naïve, innocent boy who had always been bullied, transformed into a beast who devoured its enemies? Whose backing did he receive exactly?

"Son of a bitch! I'll kill you!" Glaring at Jameson, Josh was about to send a punch in his brother's face when the meeting room door flung open.

Victor's secretary gestured at Jameson. "Mr. Jameson, Mr. Victor would like to see you."

Jameson shoved Josh away without warning. Then, he puffed his chest and marched into the room with a smug look.

The moment the door slammed shut, Josh came around and realized that he hadn't dressed his wound. The pain made him fall onto the floor as he pressed a hand against his head.

…

Victor was taking Nitroglycerin when Jameson showed up in the room. He immediately hid the bottle in his hand upon seeing Jameson.

"If you would like me to save the Schmidt Group, just agree to one condition—appoint me as the company president."

Victor looked shell-shocked by the ridiculous demand. Although he had just taken Nitroglycerin, the heart palpitations seemed to have returned.

Indeed, he had no better candidate in the company except Jameson after Josh's catastrophic failure. Moreover, Jameson so happened to be an extremely capable man who qualified to take over the company from Victor. He was one of the few who could hold a candle to Jonah Taylor and Jasper Beckett.

Alas, Jameson was not Victor's ideal candidate. He was only forced to make Jameson the president because he was at a dead-end.

"Fine. I agree!" Victor clenched his fist and bit the bullet. "If you solve the crisis, I'll convene a board meeting right away to appoint you the new president of the Schmidt Group!"
