Can’t Win Me Back

Jameson had openly displayed his ambitions. Victor finally saw his true colors.

Had he not fallen for Jameson’s perfect acting, and had he trusted Josh more, he wouldn’t have met with the dilemma. He regretted not keeping Josh as the president, instead oppressing him and unknowingly offering Jameson an opportunity to take power.

It didn’t matter if Jameson helped the company out of the crisis. Victor knew that he would go against his own interest by negotiating with a sly opponent like Jameson, even if Jameson were his son.

Trying to be rational, Victor calmed down and caved in. His tone softened.

“Jimmy, I allow Lily to stay with us at the Schmidt Manor, but I can’t transfer the stocks to you as you wish.”

Jameson adjusted his glasses. He quipped, “Well, but didn’t Josh transfer his stocks to you as you wish?”

“Josh is serving concurrent sentences; I’m afraid he’ll spend the rest of his life in prison. Since Clarissa has divorced him, I will be the one to inherit his company shares. I have the right to take his shares.”

Despite hating Jameson with all his might, he had to play along as he didn’t have anyone else to rely on except for Jameson. “Any major changes to the stock ownership structure will shake the power foundation. And that will require a vote from the board of directors.

“The board has been upset with me for appointing you as the president. After all the crisis, I suggest that we don’t hurt the morale at this moment. If you perform well in your role, you will be the heir of Schmidt Group without having to fight for it.”
