How could an envious Landon be placated?
Well, only through showing off his money.
David was officially being indicted by the prosecution of a few major crimes. The Schmidt family's
stance toward this was clear as day. They had completely abandoned David, just like how they had
abandoned Daisy.
After all, the Schmidt Group would fall apart if they continued associating with trash like David.
Despite being locked up at the detention center for a week, no one had come to rescue him. Instead, it
was his arch-enemy who came—Jameson Schmidt.
"Hey, you son of a bitch."
David was in his gray-colored prisoner uniform. His hair looked unkempt, and his stubble was growing
out. He sniffed and continued, "Are you here to mock me, too? If so, you can come over together with
Josh next time. I'm not that free to meet with you assholes every other day!"
"You say that you're not free. But, aren't you here to see me anyway?"

you've indeed lost all hope. The fact that you're here means that you're still hoping to hear some good
news.
"Besides, you should be well aware of what our relationship is like. It isn't necessary for me to visit you
and to check up on you. Don't you think so?"
"So, are you getting me out of here?"
"That's something that even Dad and Josh weren't able to do. There's nothing I can do about that
either."
"Then, what the fuck are you here for? Were you just bored out of your wits?"
Jameson wasn't in a rush to express the purpose of his visit. He simply smiled and asked, "Josh came
to visit you previously. How did that visit go?"
David gritted his teeth and didn't say a word.
"I'm sure that it wasn't any pleasant conversation."
Jameson made himself look like he was concerned for David's safety. "We're both familiar with the type
of person that Josh is. Ever since we were kids, things never ended well for those who offended him.
"Now, you and Josh have had a falling out. You've got a long prison life ahead of you. No matter how
much trouble you get into in the future, I'm certain he will never lend you a helping hand again."
"Why would I need his help?" David scoffed. Although he replied with arrogance, his heart was
unsettled.
It was said that in prison, rapists were considered at the bottom of the pack. They'd often end up being
hounded. David had already heard about all these during the days he spent at the detention center.
There was no way that he wasn't afraid.
"You might say so now. But if you had someone to support you in the future, life in prison wouldn't be
too difficult. Don't you think so?"
"Jameson, I'm sure you've got your own agenda in being here. Stop beating around the bush and get
straight to the point!" David snarled.

"Even though I've been in Kontina these recent years, I do have connections in the legal circles in
Solana City. One word from me, and you would be able to get by comfortably in prison next time."
Jameson rested his arms comfortably on his chair's armrests. A look of superiority filled his face.
"That's bullshit! You're just tooting your own horn! Did you think that I'd believe your crap?" David was
already aggravated by Josh's visit previously. He wasn't going to believe anyone else now.
Jameson gave a sidelong glance at Carl, who was beside him.
Carl understood Jameson's signal. He placed a document in front of David. It was an agreement for the
transfer of shares. In a polite tone, he said, "This is for your perusal, Mr. David."
David blew his top. His lips started trembling involuntarily. "This, again? The previous copy has already
become scrap!"
"Sign this, and I guarantee your prison life will go smoothly. If you face any issues, Mr. Schmidt will
settle them on your behalf," Carl continued to persuade him.
David shouted angrily, "You son of a bitch! This is not your place to speak. Get out!"
Carl turned red with anger. However, he had to refrain himself for the sake of Jameson's master plan.
"I want you to get out, too! If you think that you can swindle my shares... dream on!"
David was about to get up to leave when Jameson sneered, "David, if I were to say that I could help
you with taking Josh down, would you be willing to back me up?"
