Chapter 1182
As Winston listened silently, memories of a thrilling and life- threatening gunfight flashed through his
mind.
He truly appreciated Victor for that incident. Back then, they were both young and their deep brotherly
bond was evident in Victor risking his life to protect Winston.
It was also during that incident that Colene, the daughter of The Ivory Gang’s boss, risked her life to
save Winston, thus leading to their relationship.
“Yes, Victor. Your kindness is something I’ll never forget,” Winston said with a hoarse voice.
“I think you’ve forgotten everything! Otherwise, you wouldn’t have gone back on your words and treated
me like a fool!”
Victor grew increasingly agitated, his face turning red with anger he breathed heavily, he slammed an
expensive crystal glass on table.

Victor was usually jovial around Winston. This was their first time seeing him so a
angry. It showed how much he valued this marriage union, even at the cost of a 30-year friendship.
“Dad, don’t get too worked up.”
David and Jameson stood up simultaneously. However, David, with his leg issues, lagged behind
Jameson.
Jameson had already reached Victor. He gently patted Victor’s heaving back, consoling him, “Dad,
calm down. You and Uncle

“Jimmy, don’t say that. This has nothing to do with you.”
Sighing, Victor pounded his thigh. “It’s my fault for being useless. After all these years, I still couldn’t
surpass Beckett Group and become the leading figure in Solana City. Your Uncle Winston looks down
on our family and wants to form a strong alliance with the Beckett family. I understand him.”
“Dad, don’t say that. It’s not your fault. It’s mine.”
Jameson smiled bitterly, pain evident in his eyes. “It’s because I couldn’t win Lyse over. Uncle Winston
is right. We can’t force matters of the heart. Since that’s the case, I hope Lyse and Mr. Beckett can be
together happily forever this time.”
The phrase “this time” was casually spoken but sounded incredibly grating.
“Alright, I understand now.”
Victor rose furiously, looking at Winston with disappointment. “Since you’ve made your choice, I have
nothing more to say. All good things. must come to an end. Mr. Taylor, when we meet again, we’ll be
rivals. Farewell. David, Jimmy, let’s go.”
“Victor, wait.”

Frowning, Winston slowly stood up and walked toward Victor. “I have always favored Jameson
becoming my son-in-law, and I’ve always hoped for a closer bond between our families.
“But you saw Lyse’s relationship with Jasper at the horse racing event. Everyone had seen it. It’s
practically a public announcement. Discussing marriage now wouldn’t be good for the Schmidt Group’s
reputation, nor your son’s.”

Victor fell into contemplation.
Meanwhile, Jameson pushed his glasses and gave Winston a fleeting cold glance.
He wondered what was wrong with Winston. He felt that Winston was secretly matching Alyssa to
Jasper.
What exactly happened?
“Taty,” Winston suddenly called Tatiana.
“Yes, Dad?” Tatiana shook herself out of a daze and walked over to
her father’s side.
