The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family novel Chapter 5710

Jacob had a sad and worried expression as he said to Charlie, “My dear son-in-law, my current situation is indeed a little tricky. There's a lot of gossip going around in the association. Many people say I don't have any real talent and the only reason I'm the vice president is because I have Mr. Bay’s support. Mr. Bay is also in a difficult and passive position as well.”

Jacob lowered his voice and continued, “Mr. Bay had dinner with me yesterday and gave me a few subtle hints. The gist is that there are too many people coming to him for advice recently, and many of them want to impeach me. If I can't come up with something soon, it'll be difficult for me to convince everyone…”

Charlie nodded and said with a smile, “This matter can be dealt with easily, Dad. I happened to be taking a look at a client’s Feng Shui today, and I noticed he had quite a few paintings at home. Since your calligraphy and painting association is planning an exhibition, I asked if he could lend me a few paintings.”

Jacob asked excitedly, “My dear son-in-law, what did your client say? Is he willing to lend us some?”

Charlie replied, “My client has a special status and it’s not convenient for him to display many of his collections. However, he is still quite generous. When they heard that my father-in-law was organizing an exhibition, he specifically took out a painting to donate to the calligraphy and painting exhibition.”

After saying that, Charlie handed the cylinder containing the painting to Jacob.

Jacob asked in surprise, “He wants to donate a painting to the calligraphy and painting exhibition?! What painting is it?”

Charlie casually replied, “I'm not sure either. This painting is quite mysterious. There's no painter's signature or seal, just a brief inscription on it. Why don't you open it and take a look?”

Jacob was overjoyed and took the cylinder from Charlie. He then extracted the portrait of Marcius from inside and unfolded the scroll without going back into the house. He held it in his hands and exclaimed, “Wow! This painting is really amazing!”
