With a burst of enthusiasm, Jacob eximed, “But I spent 98,000 on shopping! I invested 98,000 and earned back 300,000. My profit margin is only 200,000. If I refund him 300,000, Wan, doesn’t that mean I’m losing my initial capital?”


    Don Albert replied in a calm tone, “Currently, if you’re still hesitant to let go of the money, there’s nothing more I can do. Mr. Willson, you’ll need to find a way to resolve this situation on your own.”


    Suddenly anxious, Jacob stammered, “No, no, no! Fifth Master, can’t I just return it? I’ll give back all my profits, totaling 202,000, without keeping a single cent. I’ll just retain my capital, right?”


    Don Albert inquired, “Mr. Willson, ording to your reasoning, wouldn’t the police require him to return the money to the fraudster? And should he also deduct his Inte and phone bills from that amount?”


    Jacob was momentarily at a loss for words, unable to respond.<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">


    Don Albert continued, “Mr. Willson, I offered my guidance solely because of Master Wade’s influence. But given the current situation and your reluctance to part with the money, please don’t waste my time.”


    Feeling defeated, Jacob raised his voice, “Alright, Master, I’ll return the full 300,000 yuan to him. Will that suffice?”<fnc848> ???? ????s? ???????s ?? FindN0vel</fnc848>


    Don Albert suggested, “I rmend you donate the money directly to charity. Then, take the donation receipt and apologize to Zhou Liangyun. I heard he personally contributed 10 million to charity, so he likely won’t be concerned about your 300,000. You’ll do what you intended and donate the funds; he might even hold you in higher regard.”


    Jacob resigned to his fate, repeatedly affirming, “Okay! I’ll donate every single cent!”


    With a smile, Don Albert replied, “Exactly! Mr. Willson, money is merely a material possession. If you embrace this perspective, I believe you can navigate this situation without any significant trouble.”


    He then added, “It’s gettingte; you should hurry up. Let’s go to Antique Street to meet Zhou Liangyun.”


    Jacob responded helplessly, “Master, I’m currently in Dubai. I’m on vacation with my wife, and I justnded.”


    As he spoke, he unconsciously looked up and added, “The cabin door hasn’t even opened yet.”


    Suddenly, he noticed that all the first-ss passengers were staring at him with disdain.


    Realizing that his earlier phone conversation had been loud enough for everyone to hear, he felt an overwhelming wave of embarrassment. Lowering his voice, he asked Don Albert, “Fifth Master, do you think I could donate the money and then send the donation certificate to Zhou Liangyun? Would that work?”


    Don Albert advised, “This is a business matter, and it’s crucial. I suggest you set aside your vacation and return as soon as possible. If something unfortunate urs, I won’t be able to assist you.”


    He added, “Oh, and by the way, I heard our local media is already focusing on this issue and nning to interview Zhou Liangyun. If this situation esctes, I can’t guarantee that I can help you, so it’s best youe back quickly and address this matter.”


    Feeling utterly defeated, Jacobmented, “I spent thousands on airfare and a lot on the hotel. I just arrived after a nine-hour flight. You can’t expect me to turn back now…”


    “And now I have to return the money I earned, losing my initial capital of 98,000. If I also lose another 100,000 on flights and hotels, wouldn’t I be at a total loss? This is so unfair…”


    Don Albert replied helplessly, “How about you take a gamble?”


    Frightened, Jacob quickly responded, “No, no… I can’t do anything like that. If you take risks, it could lead to serious consequences. My wife endured so much when she was incarcerated; I can’t make the same mistakes…”


    With a sigh, he concluded, “Forget it, Mr. Albert. I’ll look for the earliest flight back…”
