As a business tycoon who once stood shoulder to shoulder with Winston, the news of Victor's death should have been locked down. Only when the situation was more stable would they make a public announcement.
Unexpectedly, various media outlets fought to release the news, and it spread across the city like wildfire.
Jameson was the one who released the news. As of now, he was the only one left from the Schmidt family, so naturally, he would inherit the company.
He finally got his wish. He climbed over mountains of corpses to reach the height of Schmidt Group's power.
Victor's body was temporarily placed in the hospital morgue. As his relative, Jameson refused to do an autopsy. Since the police did not find traces of foul play, the case was closed as an accidental death.
In the hospital's rest area, Jameson sat up straight on a black leather couch. His arms rested on the armrest naturally and with an air of authority. He closed his eyes and started imagining himself sitting on a throne.
"Dad, in my 30 over years of life, this is the best present you've given me. Thank you for this. Rest in peace."
Knocks sounded at the door, and Jameson answered. Carl entered, followed by another man dressed in a suit and leather shoes, carrying a briefcase.
Then, Carl locked the door.
"Mr. Derullere, please sit." Jameson smiled gently.
Jason Derullere was Victor's close friend. Not only was he Schmidt Group's legal advisor, but he was also a private lawyer for the entire Schmidt family. He had been working with his father for more than three decades.
"Mr. Jameson," Jason politely greeted.
Jameson didn't react, but it was clear that he was displeased with the title.
Nevertheless, the course of events was more or less settled. They were just waiting for the next board meeting to announce officially that Schmidt Group was under his control, so he wasn't too fussed right now.

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🙄...
