The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family novel Chapter 5132

Jacob was flustered by Elaine’s question. Furthermore, he was guilty, so he suddenly did not know how to explain himself.

At this time, Charlie hurriedly asked, “Dad, are you feeling upset because you did not perform well in the cultural exchange to Korea this time?”

After getting Charlie’s reminder, Jacob nodded in a panic and said, “Yes, yes, that’s right... It’s because I did not perform well...”

After saying that, he sighed deeply and said angrily from the bottom of his heart, “I’ve been preparing for this cultural exchange for a long time, and I thought that I would be able to do a good job in Korea so that I could also bring glory to Aurous Hill and Oskia. Unexpectedly, after arriving in Korea, the other members of my own group stole the limelight from me. I was in Korea for more than twenty days but did not have any room for development at all. I’ve never felt so humiliated in my life...”

When Elaine heard this, she was half-convinced, but she was still very angry and cursed, “Look at your own fucking abilities, it’s no wonder why your mother, brother, and sister-in-law look down on you! Didn’t you simply go on a cultural exchange? It’s fine if you did not perform well, and it’s also fine if you embarrassed yourself and felt humiliated. Wouldn’t it be fine if you simply don’t go next time?!”

Jacob was very depressed as he said, “It’s easy for you to say that. Do you know how important this cultural exchange is to me? If I had done a good job this time, the rest of my life would have been rewritten. Now, someone else is rewriting their life instead. I was just a fucking escort!”

When Elaine saw Jacob acting like a wimp, she was furious and cursed, “I don’t care how much you’ve lost in Korea, but you have to clean up the living room by tonight. Make sure it’s clean and spotless, and don’t you dare sleep until you’re done! If I get up tomorrow and smell a little cigarette smoke or even see half a cigarette butt, I’ll fucking deal with you then!”

After saying that, she wiggled the joystick of the wheelchair angrily, entered the elevator, and went upstairs to her room.

Claire could not help but complain, “Dad, you’re taking things too seriously. You only joined the Calligraphy and Painting Association as a hobby, so it doesn’t matter even if you don’t perform well when you go abroad for a cultural exchange. Why are you making yourself so decrepit? Do you know that accidents can happen easily if you smoke and drink so much alcohol alone at home?! What if something happens to you when we are not around? There won’t be anyone to call for an ambulance for you, then!”

Jacob was very depressed as he said, “You don’t understand! I’m very depressed. I will suffer from depression if I don’t smoke or drink!”
