Chapter 16

Author: Lord Leaf
Sabrina crossed her arms in front of her chest and said in a pompous tone, “Yeah, I despise you, so what? Can’t you bear some criticism now, you loser?”

“Everyone in college knows that you married Claire and became their live-in son-in-law after graduation! A miserable loser who couldn’t even afford a decent meal in college and a toyboy after graduation! How dare you come looking for my help being such a big loser as you are? Who do you think you are?”

A rage of fury was slowly burning inside Charlie.

One would not attack unless attacked first. Sabrina was going too far this time!

Right at this moment, he received a text message from Stephen. “Young Master, the Wade family owns Shangri-La Hotels and Resorts. The Shangri-La of Aurous Hill is just one of our many Shangri-Las throughout the world.”

Charlie’s pupil shrank in astonishment!

Did he just say that the Wade family owned Shangri-Las?

He responded reflexively, “You’re not bluffing, are you?”

“Of course not. The person in charge of Aurous Hill’s Shangri-La is Isaac Cameron, his number is 155…, please give him a call and he will settle everything for you.”

“Okay.”

Sabrina was a little agitated by Charlie’s attitude, staring at his phone and texting while she was mocking him.

She felt like she was abusing a dog and of course, she wanted to hear the dog yelp.

Unexpectedly, Charlie didn’t say anything.

It proved that in his case, time did not change anything. He was a loser since college, and he was the same loser now who didn’t even budge after being insulted.

Hence, she increased the cockiness in her tone and sneered, “Hey, Mr. Class Rep, you’re pretty good at putting up with insults!”

“Oh yes, by the way, I heard that you and Claire have not slept together after being married for three years. Is Claire actually someone else’s mistress and you’re nothing but a smokescreen for her affairs? Hahaha!”

Charlie frowned indignantly.

‘Not only did you insult me, but you also insulted my wife. Sabrina Lee, you’re digging your own grave!’

Enraged, he called Isaac Cameron’s number. He stared at Sabrina and said flatly while waiting for the call to be answered, “I’m going to ask your person in charge about how Shangri-La recruits employees, for even people with a foul mouth like you can work here!”

“What? How dare you taunt me? You really need a beating!” Sabrina growled furiously and shouted to the guards beside her, “He’s here looking for trouble, beat him!”

At this moment, his call was answered.

“Hello, who is it?”

A charismatic male voice came from the other end of the line.

Charlie said coldly, “Are you Isaac Cameron? I am Charlie Wade, I’m now at the entrance of Shangri-La. I’ll give you a minute to get the h*ll here or you can just get out of Shangri-La!”

Upon hearing it, the man who was originally full of charisma immediately panicked and stuttered, “Young…Young Master? Are you really at the Shangri-La now?”

“Fifty seconds!”

The man yelped over the phone and blurted frantically, “Please wait a moment, I’ll be there right away!”

Sabrina smirked as she listened to Charlie’s phone conversation and mocked sarcastically, “Hey, Charlie, I didn’t know that you’re so good at blowing your own horn! Do you know who Mr. Cameron is? Even the most prestigious members of Shangri-La dare not to be so pompous in front of Mr. Cameron! Do you really think you can fool me by pretending to make a call?”

Charlie glared at him and said faintly, “You’ll know in thirty seconds if I’m fooling you!”

Sabrina laughed contemptuously. “Okay, our beloved class rep! I’ll wait for thirty seconds! Oh no, let’s make it three minutes. If Mr. Cameron doesn’t show himself in three minutes, I’ll let the guards tear your bluffing mouth off your face, you lying little prick! Hahaha! This is so funny!”

Twenty seconds later, a middle-aged man in a top-of-the-line bespoke suit ran towards them in a panic.

He was a dog who worked for the Wade family. He was also a very powerful dog.

Ever since he had been appointed as the general manager of the Shangri-La in Aurous Hill, he became one of the most respectable icons in the city. When was the last time he was ever so panicked and anxious?

However, his panic was understandable. He had never imagined that the young master of the Wade family would appear at Shangri-La, which was under his management…

Sabrina intended to continue insulting Charlie when she suddenly saw the guards looking pale and horrified as they glanced behind her.

She followed their stunned gazes and turned around when she saw Mr. Cameron emerge. Her eyes opened widely as if she had been struck by lightning.

Then, she turned back at Charlie, her eyes full of horror. “This… how… how is it possible…”

“Who is Mr. Charlie Wade?”

Isaac’s voice was trembling in fear and disbelief.

Everyone stared at him in bewilderment, stunned. The man who could easily shake Aurous Hill by simply stomping his feet had become so terrified and frightened that even his voice changed!

Charlie said loudly, “I am!”

Isaac quickly rushed towards him and bowed. “Young…”

Charlie interjected immediately, “Mr. Cameron, some things are not suitable to be said out loud in public.”

Isaac was shaking with jitters upon the statement.

‘Oh, my goodness! I’m such a stupid dog! Young Master’s identity must be highly confidential, yet I almost called him out! If I offend Young Master, it will be the end for me!’

Thus, he hurriedly changed the address but still spoke in a respectful tone, “Mr. Wade, welcome to Shangri-La. Please follow me to my office for further discussion.”

Sabrina was utterly stunned. She could not accept the fact but it had unfolded right in front of her eyes.

Who was Charlie Wade really? What was his real background? How could he make the big boss of Shangri-La bow before him like a lowly peasant?

He wouldn’t bear a grudge against her for her mockery, right?

  • The Charismatic Charlie Wade   Chapter 7313

    Getting up, Charlie went over to give Hamed a heads-up before leaving the restaurant with Claire.Hani then approached them with a smile. "Mr. and Mrs. Wade, how does playing with stingrays sound? They often flock around the northern beach.""Stingrays?" Claire blurted in surprise. "Are they domesticated?""No, but they are a local species," Hani smiled, shaking his head. "And there are plenty of them in the waters around the island. They'd be playing or feeding during this hour, and return to the depths when it gets dark. So now's the best time to see them."Claire nodded and asked, "Can you take us there?""Of course, no problem!" Hani smiled. "We can ride a golf cart over. Allow me to drive."Claire finally smiled, and she chirped happily, "Thank you so much!"With that, she and Charlie got into the golf cart Hani used to ferry guests, the electric vehicle speeding steadily over the cobblestone path on the island as they headed straight for the northern beach.The island was

    Elaine was naturally upset with Hani's response, and argued right then, "What's the meaning of this? Is the owner denying us hospitality? Who's more important, your owner or your customers?"Hani was left responding awkwardly, "Please, ma'am. While we always prioritize our clients, a concierge like me won't get to sway the owner's arrangements.""Where is he now?!" Elaine argued. "Tell him to see me—I need to ask if this is how he usually treats his customers!"Hani flinched from the retort, but asked gingerly, "Ma'am… would you happen to know who our owner is?"Elaine snorted in disdain. "Who cares? I paid for this vacation, or what? Is your boss a bigger deal than Bill Gates?"Hani cleared his throat as he quietly explained, "Well, he ranked third in last year's world's richest list… and Bill was the eighth.""What the hell?!" Elaine blurted in shock. "Some hotel owner is actually the third richest person in the world?!"Hani quickly went into lecturer mode and explained, "If

    Jacob looked overwhelmed as he sprang to his feet, exclaiming in surprise, "Oh, Mr. Ahmed! Your Oskian is so fluent!"Hamed smiled. "I've been in Oskia for a long while on business. I'm basically a friend of the nation!"Hamed naturally avoided saying that he studied in Oskia, or he'd have to lie more if they pressed the issue.Still, Jacob nodded. "Nice to meet you, Mr. Ahmed. I'm Jacob Wilson—Charlie's father-in-law!"Elaine hurried over right then. "I'm Elaine. Charlie's mother-in-law."Hamed then turned toward Claire and smiled. "And I'm guessing this angel is Mrs. Wade!"Claire had a hunch who Hamed was, and knew that everything he said was going to be a lie.After all, anyone who 'knew' Charlie would know his true heritage.Still, she didn't let it show and flashed a polite smile. "Nice to meet you, Mr. Ahmed. I'm Claire."Hamed nodded politely. "I've always been grateful to Master Wade for helping me with the Feng Shui in my business, and I guess it's fate that brought

    Charlie's in-depth projections and analysis left Hamed nervous right then, and he was scowling as he asked, "Come on, man—I can't attack or defend? Doesn't that mean I'm going to lose anyway?"Charlie sighed. "Well, things definitely look bleak—I just didn't think you guys would win that quickly, or for the situation to change this quickly."Hamed groaned, "Well, what should I do?"Charlie thought about it for a while, and said solemnly, "In your place, I'll start from the inside. Seek out any discord or signs of infighting in the enemy camp. Turn them against each other or use money to tempt potential allies. Then, find the right timing for a pincer, and you'd be looking at a complete takeover.""Oh, but…" Hamed smiled awkwardly. "You're a master tactician, but I'm not! To be honest, it's taxing for me just leading 3,000 men. If I had to lead more, I'd be overwhelmed!"Then, he turned towards Charlie excitedly, "Unless you're willing to take over command for me!""Buzz off," Cha

    As he finished, Hamed told the women under his breath to find a table, before he threw an arm around Charlie's shoulder and exclaimed excitedly, "Come, brother! Let's talk outside!"Once they got to the beach outside the restaurant, Hamed made sure there was no one around before giving Charlie a bear hug, exclaiming excitedly, "We're really bound together by fate, brother! Fancy running into you here!"Charlie chuckled. "So, when did you marry twice? Never heard anything about that."Hamed scratched his head in embarrassment, "Oh, the old missus bailed during the war, saying I was too dangerous to be with. I never cared to marry since, but started to settle down as the war ended, thanks to you."Then I got married twice—wanted to invite you, but it's not easy bringing someone over to that godforsaken place of mine. And with things getting nervous reasonably, I feel even less keen to bring you over."Charlie nodded. 'Well, it's a complete victory now that your faction claimed full

    Hamed didn't notice Charlie just then.He had one woman in each arm, a cigar between his lips, and looked clearly relaxed, even having a whale of a time.On the other hand, Claire, Elaine, and Jacob were all perplexed, unsure how Charlie had become acquainted with the Syrian, who clearly looked rich.Impatient as ever, Elaine asked bluntly, "Sonny, when did you meet him? I mean, how smug could he be, taking both wives out on a trip?"Charlie smiled. "Like you said, it's their culture and it's legal."Pausing, he then explained, "Oh, he's also a client. Didn't Albert ask me to look into some gas mines near the northwest border? He has money invested into the mines."Jacob and Elaine both nodded—it made sense for a middle-eastern tycoon to invest in a gas mine near the border, as it was near their own borders too.On the other hand, Claire kept his head down, staying silent as she knew that Charlie was lying again.In fact, whenever Charlie used the excuse of traveling on the job

    ”Oh, my God!”Sean could not stop himself from exclaiming out loud when he heard this. “Don Albert actually used a knife to carve the words ‘pathetic jerk’ on Cain’s son’s forehead?!
