The Amazing son in law Chapter 6748

Jacob exclaimed in frustration, “I already let Zhou Liangyun take over more than 19 million without any compensation, and now he wants me to give him back 300,000?! Is this a joke?”
Zhang Ermao (Cade) replied, “Then just focus on your own matters.”
Without waiting for Jacob’s reaction, Zhang Ermao (Cade) abruptly ended the call.
Jacob remained frozen, phone in hand, overwhelmed by a mix of anger and fear, his body shaking and twitching uncontrollably.
Elaine, standing nearby, quickly inquired, “Husband, what did Zhang Ermao (Cade) say? Is he not going to help us get our things back?!”
Jacob, momentarily distracted by her concern, shakily pulled out his cell phone and attempted to engage with it. However, he struggled to keep up with the situation, prompting Elaine to swiftly snatch the phone from him.
Noticing the sweat streaming down his face, Elaine pressed, “Husband, what’s wrong with you?”
Regaining his composure, Jacob vented angrily, “That b*tch Zhang Ermao (Cade)! What’s his problem? He’s trying to ruin me! He shared everything on WeChat, dragging me straight into chaos!”
Suddenly, a realization hit him. “Oh my god! The Moments! That’s why my phone is blowing up with WeChat messages! Give me my phone!”
Elaine, reacting instinctively, handed the phone back and asked anxiously, “Husband, what’s happening?”
Jacob replied, “I don’t have time to explain right now, please just wait a moment.”
As the plane taxied to its parking spot, he hurriedly scrolled through his unread WeChat messages.
His heart raced when he spotted a message from President Pei.
Regardless of any financial gain, the real concern was preserving the executive vice president position. The Calligraphy and Painting Association had four vice presidents, but only one executive vice president—a critical second-in-command role. If President Pei were to be promoted, Jacob would be next in line.
He had been eagerly anticipating the day he could claim that title, longing for the pride it would bring. If Zhang Ermao (Cade) were to expose this situation, it could jeopardize his standing in the association, resulting in a tremendous setback.
Quickly, Jacob tapped on the voice message from President Pei. His nerves intensified, causing his teeth to chatter.
In addition to the first message, President Pei had sent another voice note. As Jacob played it, he heard President Pei’s voice: “Oh Jacob, your dealings with Zhang Ermao (Cade) are escalating. Several leaders I dined with recently have reached out to inquire about the situation. They’re shocked by your actions. We had just established a solid communication foundation, and now, if you continue down this path, it will alienate you from everyone. I can’t even defend you!”
Panicking, Jacob muttered to himself, “This is a disaster, a complete disaster. If Zhang Ermao (Cade) keeps this up, I won’t survive in the association…”
Wiping his cold sweat away, he quickly composed a message back to President Pei: “I apologize, President Pei. I’ve just landed in Dubai, and the plane hasn’t even touched down yet. Zhang Ermao (Cade) is twisting the narrative. Please don’t believe his words! I will certainly take legal action against him!”
