Josh finally realized that Jameson was there today to settle old scores with him.
All eyes, including Victor's, were fixed on Josh's stiff face.
"Jameson, what nonsense are you talking about?"
Josh had seen his fair share of deceitful people and wasn't fooled by Jameson's words. He gritted his teeth and coldly retorted, "What does your mom's infidelity have anything to do with me?"
"I'm asking you just one thing. Do you dare swear that my mom's alleged affair has nothing to do with you?"
"Hah! Why should I swear to you? Who do you think you are?" Josh was unyielding.
Jameson smirked with pale lips, his eyes seemingly harboring a deadly storm. "Josh, haven't you always wanted to reclaim the position of president from me? Let's make a bet.
"If you dare swear that my mom's alleged affair has nothing to do with you, I'll hand over the position to you."
The crowd was stunned.
Alyssa and Jasper stared at Jameson in shock.
They knew that for Jameson, the position of Schmidt Group's president was his everything. After all, he only obtained it after a series of careful plots and schemes.
But now, he was willing to make this painful sacrifice to confront Josh. Clearly, he had prepared for a counterattack.
"That position was rightfully mine from the start!" Josh hated Jameson's arrogance. He gritted his teeth in resentment. "You stole it from me using underhanded tactics! Don't act so righteous!"
"Fine, I'll give it back to you. Not only that, I'll also leave Schmidt Group and return to Kontina."
Jameson's eyes were bloodshot. "Do you dare accept the bet?"
It was a desperate gamble.
Alyssa pressed her red lips together as she watched Jameson with a complex expression.
It was undeniable that Jameson showed his last bit of conscience to stand up for his mother. He was willing to give up everything he had worked so hard to seek justice for her.
It showed that Lily's past grievances weighed heavily on him.
Josh's scheming, Victor's suspicion, and their ruthless abandonment had turned Jameson, once a fine young man, into the person he was today.
In a way, Josh had sown the seeds of everything that had happened.
If Lily hadn't been framed back then and had been able to stay with the Schmidt family to raise Jameson, perhaps he wouldn't have turned out this way.
But there were no ifs in this world. There was no fixing a rotten heart.
The room fell silent as tension reached its breaking point.
Lily trembled in Jameson's arms, unaware of the impending storm.
Meanwhile, Josh ground his teeth audibly, his mind racing. After all, the stakes were high. If this was a game of poker, Jameson had gone all in.
The incident occurred so long ago that all evidence had long since disappeared. At this thought, Josh smirked sinisterly. "Jimmy, everyone is watching. Don't play dumb later."

The readers' comments on the novel: Can’t Win Me Back novel (Alyssa and Jasper)
I am trying to figure out why an author writes one page and it is suppose to be a chapter and then the author gets the audience hooked on the story and just drags it on. Follow the rules please, and at least give the 7 chapters daily. Two chapters every other day is a waste of time. Or just release the book and give us the option to buy it....
Ughhh…can we get more pleeeease! I’m so into this book and literally check daily for updates but it’s only two pages at most. Can you at least do 4 pages a night 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽...
More chapters please the 7 chapters/day would be nice, TY...
Where can i download the remaining chapters?...
Why are we literally only getting one chapter a day?!? I mean can we at least get 4 or something? Irritating🙄...
