The atmosphere became merry and lively as everyone began drinking.
Noticing that the directors had all calmed down, Jacob stood up and raised his glass. “Enjoy yourselves tonight, guys! It's my treat!”
“Thank you, Mr. Campbell!”
“Don't mind if we do!”
Jacob nodded. “Go ahead! Order the most expensive booze!”
Right as Jacob was about to have some hostesses join them, his assistant burst through the door.
“I have really bad news, Mr. Campbell!” he shouted anxiously.
“We're all having a good time here! What are you going on about?” Jacob asked with a look of displeasure on his face.
Although tempted to just blurt out everything, the assistant held himself back and whispered into Jacob’s ear, “We've got big trouble, sir. Can we talk outside?”
That was when Jacob noticed how anxious his assistant looked. He then placed his glass down and excused himself to the restroom.
The smile on Jacob's face vanished after the two of them stepped outside. “What the hell happened?” he asked coldly.
“Here, take a look at this..." The assistant whipped out his phone and pulled up a Twitter page.
The words “Sann Group” and “Moore Group” could be seen under the trending section.
