Chapter 16

작가: 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 7799

    Even for Charlie and Vera, staying in Antarctica was a bore—even inside this vast and magnificent subterranean city, when there was nothing and no one else around.Fortunately, Charlie wasn't a cultivation fanatic—any other cultivator finding such a place swelling with Reiki, would have devoted every second to cultivation without a moment's delay.And since Vera had expressed a desire to visit America, Charlie naturally indulged her, and they took the portal straight to the fifth floor of the plaza pagoda.Charlie, holding Vera's hand, stepped to the west side portal of the Eight Trigrams. With a thought, when their vision returned, they were already in Sierra Nevada.Emerging from a hidden cave, they found themselves in a valley near Mount Whitney, the highest peak in the United States, surrounded by national parks on both the east and the west.It was dawn in California, with first light emerging from the eastern sky, bathing Whitney Peak in a golden glow. Still, it wasn't that

    Watching as Vera busily plucked the tiny leaves but still couldn't keep up with the numbers growing out, Charlie shrugged. "Come on—just let them sprout for now. There are still eight portals at the plaza pagoda of the subterranean city, and I myself had yet to check them all out. Why don't you join me?""Oh, sure!" Vera smiled and nodded cheerfully. "The kombuc tree is positively blooming here, so there's no hurry trying to pluck all of them. I'll come back later to trim its branches, which you can put in the void pocket—we can make tea with them when we're back in Oskia."Charlie nodded, and took her hand, leading her to the portal at the center of the plaza.He cast the mental incantation in his mind to teleport to the first floor portal of the plaza pagoda… but there was no reaction.He then tried every other floor, but found that only the fifth floor with the intercontinental portals were open to him—he couldn't get on the other floors at all.Even as he was left perplexed,

    While Charlie celebrated Nanako's enlightenment with delight, he could only feel dismay at Vera's inability to attain enlightenment.Someone up there decided to bless Vera with the perfect face, five hundred years of life, the sharpest of wit, and unmatched determination.If anything, such gifts made her appear to be the gods' favorite, but that only made Charlie feel they were unfair to her all the more.After all, she could have grown beyond perfection.If she couldn't attain enlightenment and Charlie himself couldn't make an Infinite Pill in the next hundred years, then Vera's lifespan would be exhausted.Still, Charlie's opinion was that she should live another five hundred, perhaps fifteen hundred years.Unlike Fleur or Marcius, who spent every day seeking immortality, Vera never wasted a single day in her four hundred years—leading a vibrant existence even when she was running for her life.And in Charlie's eyes, a woman like her deserved immortality the most, and it was d

    However, circumstances had changed—not only were the fresh buds of the kombuc tree richer in Reiki, but the numbers also multiplied rapidly.That meant a rich source of Reiki that was almost inexhaustible, and something not to be underestimated. It was something that set it apart from spirit stones, which were exhaustible and probably not many were left on Earth.On the other hand, the kombuc tree leaves would always keep growing.Charlie speculated that the reason the kombuc tree's buds and leaves had become so rich in Reiki after being transplanted was that it had absorbed the ridiculously concentrated Reiki here. He had no way of verifying the exact density of the Reiki here, but judging from the abilities of the cultivators who built this place, he deduced that the Reiki here was practically inexhaustible for cultivators like himself. He felt like an ant who had accidentally discovered a food depot left behind by human civilization when they withdrew from Earth. While the fo

    To move the kombuc tree, Charlie took the soil from his ring and placed it into the center of the marble slabs. When the soil pile was less than six feet from the top, he took the kombuc tree out of the void pocket, gently placing it at the center of the soil. As the kombuc tree roots were brought together with the rest of the tree, Charlie completely covered the roots with more soil. Once he did, he was surprised to see the already lush tree canopy rapidly expanding, with almost twice the number of tender green buds. With the emergence of numerous buds, the trunk and branches of the entire tree visibly thickened instantly, as if it were growing rapidly like a child in puberty. Charlie realized this might be the kombuc tree's own cultivation level. It had grown step by step from a tea tree to reach the Trial of Transcendence, likely transcending painstakingly across different realms. Vera watched in amazement at the fresh buds, murmuring, "This is really the right place for it—

    Seeing that, Charlie finally had a fair idea of how it all worked.As he took objects outside, the nearest tip of the object must not exceed sixty feet from himself.So if it was something like a 150-foot-long log, the far end can be as far as 210 feet, while the nearest must remain within sixty feet of him.If the logs were replaced with a massive steel dome 150 feet in diameter, the dome's maximum coverage distance would reach 210 feet too. But what if it were a giant steel pot instead? Making it some ten feet thick while 240 feet from handle to handle, and with the sixty-foot telekinesis limit, it really covered a length of 300 feet. Within such distances, Charlie could fight if he wanted—or slam the supermassive pot over them if he couldn't. It might crush them like a cockroach, and not even Fleur would be able to escape that quickly… Could she? So if he really found himself losing, he'd just send the pot over Fleur's head, and buy time enough to run away. Most important

    She entered the country earlier than expected. It was before he told Liam Weaver to bring the Apothecary Restoration Pill to the United States, and before the Vintage Deluxe announced the news about the auction event for the Rejuvenating Pill.In this way, Charlie could completely rule out the third

    Julian found nothing unusual from Charlie’s words.However, he quietly pricked his ears, ready to listen to Charlie’s phone conversation. Since Kathleen paid so much attention to Charlie, he wanted to see if he could retrieve any useful information.At the same time, Charlie glanced at Julian. When th

    The other party said coldly, “Ten Thousand Armies has now officially started armed escort services in the Gulf of Aden. If your men dare to lay hands on the cargo ships escorted by Ten Thousand Armies, Ten Thousand Armies will not be lenient with you either!”“D*mn it!” Badr had been in business for

    Kathleen’s words made Claire’s eyes light up immediately.She suddenly thought to herself, ‘Charlie usually has nothing important to do in Aurous Hill. He usually just helps some acquaintances take a look at their Feng Shui, so it shouldn’t be very important...’‘If I asked him to go to the United Sta
