"First, you should all look at this video." Cyrus pulled out an iPad. He played the footage, which showed
Jameson visiting David.
Alyssa inched nearer to take a closer look. She asked in a confused voice, "What did Jamiper have
David sign?"
"I've asked my colleagues at the Digital Forensics Department to analyze the footage. It's an
agreement for the transfer of shares," Cyrus answered in a deep voice.
Alyssa, Jasper, and Xavier were shocked.
"How... How could that be?" Xavier couldn't hold himself back. He blurted, "To them, their shares
represent their power and position at the Schmidt Group. It's such an important asset!
"There was a chance that David would end up being sentenced to be in prison for life. Even so, he
couldn't have transferred his shares to Jamiper even if he died. He detested Jamiper!"
"I've also hired a professional lip reader to interpret David's words. In short, Jameson probably told him
that Josh was the reason for his downfall. He offered to help get David out if he transferred his shares
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtto him. That was the gist of the conversation."
Alyssa and Jasper exclaimed in unison, "That idiot!"
"I had the same thought. Jameson invested a considerable amount of effort to eliminate a significant
obstacle that was hindering his ascent up the ranks. Why would he get David out? David, on the other
hand, didn't even think it through properly." Cyrus clicked his tongue and shook his head.
Xavier chimed in with sarcasm, "That bastard is a total airhead! He deserved to die. He was a waste of
space on this earth!"
"Logically speaking, Jameson should've been satisfied with attaining David's shares. Did he have to
have him killed?" Jasper fixed his eyes on Alyssa, who had a grave expression on her face. He was
perplexed.
"A normal person would've been satisfied with it. However, Jameson is brutal and merciless. It would
be far from enough just to get his hands on the shares."
Alyssa clenched her fingers tightly. "What he really wanted was for David to die. In a similar way, Josh
would surely be his next target."
"Even so, didn't he act too hastily?"
Jasper had a keen intuition. He was often one of the first people to perceive anything unusual. "He
acted as if David would end up being released if he delayed the hit any longer."
Cyrus looked at Jasper. He raised his brow slightly and said, "Indeed, Jameson gave David some
evidence. He claimed that it could help him with an appeal. It was because of that that David ended up
signing the agreement.
"After all, his priority was to get himself acquitted. Otherwise, he wouldn't have wavered regardless of
the amount offered to him."
Deep down, he couldn't help but feel admiration for Jasper. He thought that he was an attentive man.
He had the potential to be a criminal investigator.
Cyrus wasn't going to compliment Jasper, though. He didn't want him to become full of himself.
Xavier had a moment of realization. "That explains why Jameson took action so quickly. On one hand,
it was for revenge. On the other hand, he wasn't going to allow David to be released!" "Then, how
about the items that Jameson handed to him?" Alyssa asked.

"They're long gone. We were still too late!" Cyrus sighed in frustration.
The atmosphere in the car became heavy. At that moment, Alyssa's cell phone rang.
To her surprise, the call was coming from Colene.
"Hi, Colene. What's the matter?"
"Lyse! Are you in Solana City?" Colene sounded extremely worried on the other end of the call.
"I am. What's wrong?"
"How about Jasper? Is he by your side?"
"He is. Cyrus is here too."
Alyssa felt even more puzzled. "Did something happen at home, Colene? What in the world happened?
You're scaring me."
Jasper didn't know what was going on, but he held Alyssa close immediately. He prepared himself for
whatever was to come.
"There's this person whom you've mentioned to me before. His name is Inigo... He's made an
appearance!"
