Jacob shrugged his shoulders and said, "I'm sorry. I came too early. I hope you won't mind."
This old man was quite polite. It could be seen that he was not the same person as Coombs, at least on the surface.
"Of course not. You came back from Europe to meet us. We are very happy and honored."
"Well, don't say that. Please introduce this to me first." Jacob glanced at Lucas and pointed at Hess beside him.
Lucas nodded and smiled, "This is Hess, my current assistant. He has some issues with Coombs."
This was to tell Jacob not to worry. This person was completely trustworthy. Moreover, they both had a common enemy, that was, Coombs.
"Oh, I see. Please have a seat. Let's talk about it in detail."
Jacob was a person who liked drinking very much. He didn't say anything but drank first. His face turned a little red because of the drinking and then he began to get to the point.
"Mr. Lucas, I have read the materials you sent me. You are in great danger now."
