"Dad, David engaged in contract killing and attempted murder! Besides, it was Cyrus Taylor who
caught him red-handed. Even if I hired all the top attorneys from across the nation, they could not save
David's ass!" Josh countered.
He was banking on Victor not laying a finger on him, as he had built a strong faction in the Schmidt
Group and bagged a lucrative project in Tsulu from Jonah. So, he acted fearlessly. "Just admit that
you're upset at me. Why would you compare me to Jimmy?
"Have you forgotten all I have done for you over the years and my sacrifices for the company? I
deserve a little credit, don't you think? Plus, it's David who got us into trouble. We wouldn't be in this
mess if he didn't think with his dick. The entire family will be dragged down if we keep cleaning his
mess for him."
"Dad, calm down. I think Josh has a great point there," Jameson drawled. "You might think I am
heartless, but I, too, agree that you'll need to give up on David in the interest of the company, even if it
pains you to do so.
"It doesn't matter how we get to this situation. At the end of the day, David's man was arrested in
action, and we'll need someone to take the blame."
Victor pursed his lips with a long face.
"Jimmy's right. Dad, we'll get into trouble if we continue defending David." For once, Josh was in
agreement with Jameson.
"If so, I'll leave it to you, Josh." Victor closed his eyes in resentment. From his voice, one could discern
the pain of losing a son. "I guess this marks the end of my relationship with David."
After Victor left, only Josh and Jameson remained in the meeting room, looking like two final survivors
of a horrifically brutal game.
"Josh, it's just you and me in the family now. Please show me favor," Jameson spoke.
He rose gracefully from his seat and glanced at Josh from the corner of his eye. "Be gentle when you
speak with David. You know he's emotionally immature. He might shred you into pieces if he learns that
he'll be in jail forever."
"You are just lucky. Don't get ahead of yourself." Gritting his teeth, Josh knew how to hit Jameson
where it hurt.
He taunted, "You played no role in David and Daisy's fates at all. It was all because of Alyssa and
Jasper's strategies. That couple is more than capable of going up against the Schmidt Group."
The mention of Alyssa and Jasper as a couple cut into Jameson's heart. His expression froze, and he
breathed heavily.
Josh did not stop there. "You are a bastard son who benefits off the success of others. Do you believe
you can win against me by tattling on the others in front of Dad and driving a wedge between us?
"You are a shameless, fake-ass traitor. No matter how meticulously you present yourself, you still reek
of the filth. It's no wonder Alyssa Taylor couldn't care less for you. You are no match for Jasper Beckett,novelbin
you ridiculous thing!"
Hatred filled Jameson's chest. Like a raging bull, he stormed up to Josh with clenched fists.
Jameson snickered. "Oh, Jimmy, you're not going to beat me up right here, are you?" He pointed at the
ceiling, adding, "There are cameras everywhere. If you lay a finger on me, you will only hurt your image
of a dutiful son."
Jameson squinted and tried to hold back his anger. Then, he slowly adjusted Josh's tie for him. "Josh,
your arrogance is pitiable yet comical in my eyes."
"What are you talking—Ugh—"
Without warning, Jameson tightened the tie, causing Josh to momentarily suffocate and gasp for
breath.
Jameson hissed, "You have walked into my trap. Can't you tell?"
