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 7201

    Most importantly, when Ten Thousand Armies had stormed Mount Wintry, the Goldings knew the Wades were helpless, but they still stood firm by their side regardless.That loyalty was worth more than its weight in gold.However, Jeremiah still understood that he couldn't make the decisions for Charlie, or he would have made his grandson marry Quinn already.As for the Goldings, they felt a little embarrassed to keep harping about marriage when they had just received Charlie's Rejuvenation Pill.That afforded Charlie much breathing space in turn, and a lot less stress.Meanwhile, Carmen was preparing the tea set and brewing a premium tea called Beautiful Golden Eyebrows for everyone, while everyone chatted and somehow avoided the topic of marriage.After all, Jeremiah cared about the fight against the Qing Eliminating Society as much as Charlie's marriage.When he asked, Charlie gave him a quick rundown and soon remembered about Stephen Thompson. "Do you have any news on Stephen?"

    Jeremiah and Carmen never felt cold despite the pelting winds, only the misery of being ostracized.They were certainly a far cry compared to Yule and Rachel's radiant faces, but they would never hold any grief against Charlie.After all, it was all their own damned fault.Inviting everyone inside, Jeremiah quickly told Carmen, "Go, make some tea for our guests. I'd like to have a little teatime with Yule and Charlie."Having lost her heiress schtick, Carmen nodded, smiling humbly and respectfully—just like a professional waitress. "Just wait for a while. I'll get it right away."Even as she got to work, she was afraid to ask for the Rejuvenation Pill, while yearning for it at the same time.The idea was that if she properly humbled herself to Charlie and his impression of her improved, wouldn't he find some goodness in his heart to give her half?On the other hand, Rachel raised a brow.Carmen was Charlie's aunt, after all, and such menial work simply seemed inappropriate.Tu

    Jeremiah himself had been dreaming of taking a Rejuvenation Pill, but he had only gotten half of it at an auction despite staying on his best behavior around Charlie for so long.And he was already so old!On the other hand, Yule and Rachel were only in their fifties. What right did they have to get a full pill each?It was so unfair and unnecessary! It was as though he were a starving man, but Charlie only made sure his stomach was half full.On the other hand, Yule and Rachel never had to go hungry, yet Charlie stuffed them silly anyway!The thought left him moody, but he would never dare let it show in front of Charlie, instead smiling and greeting Yule and Rachel. "Oh, you kids really are in such good health—you're more like teenagers than a middle-aged couple."Carmen was envious too, hurrying to smile at Rachel, "Come, Rachel—what's your secret? You have to share it with me… I've spent a lot on health cosmetics myself, but it's a far cry from the results you're getting."

    In the afternoon, Charlie and Quinn's family arrived at the Wades' residence.Carmen, Charlie's aunt, had been working hard the whole day for dinner.Ever since Charlie had defeated Porter Waldron on Mount Wintry, Carmen had constantly been trying to mend things with her nephew.That was why she worked extra hard today, as today was the perfect opportunity to show that she had turned over a new leaf.She was all the more prouder as she was the only one of Jeremiah's children invited to dinner.If she solidified her status amongst the rest of her siblings, who knew if Charlie would afford her more respect and resources.After all, Charlie had made it very clear that he was totally disappointed in his uncles and cousins, and it presented Carmen with an opportunity to establish herself.For Jeremiah's part, he was used to spoiling his daughter.While he was no longer the head of the family, he was still keen to help Carmen rise.Still using the rented MPV, Charlie arrived with Qu

    Yule and Rachel traded glances, their eyes wide in excitement as they took the pills at the same time.They were a happy couple, and taking a Rejuvenation Pill each meant they'd spend decades more in each other's company.Their appearances changed dramatically right after they took the pills, too.While Rachel had always maintained her beauty and looked hardly fifty, she was now positively radiant with the Rejuvenation Pill. Her youthful appearance made her look closer to Quinn, too, and they looked more like sisters.Most importantly, they felt as though they had shed dozens of pounds. Aging was inevitable considering their years, and it always felt like rolling down a downhill slope. But with the Rejuvenation Pill, they seemed to be twenty years younger, their creaky joints and difficulty in moving fading right away.And it was so obvious in Rachel that Yule was gaping at his wife, not knowing that he had suddenly transformed into looking thirtyish, too.Just seeing each other'

    Rachel and Yule were naturally shocked that Quinn would call the Rejuvenation Pills Charlie's dowry, while Charlie also felt a little embarrassed.But in this situation, he knew he shouldn't say anything, let alone correct Quinn.If he kept quiet, Rachel and Yule would take the Rejuvenation Pills without qualms, and everything would be more or less resolved for now.Naturally, Charlie intended to keep dragging this engagement issue as long as he could, just like an ostrich burying its head in the sand.After all, he had no reasonable solution aside from avoidance.As Yule and Rachel watched Charlie stay silent, they were more or less content—they understood Charlie's mindset and circumstances, and that it'd be coercion if they tried to make him openly agree to marry Quinn.Charlie's offering of the Rejuvenation Pills as a dowry offered a neutral stance, and it was already good enough for them.Seeing that her parents were easing up, Quinn pressed, "The pills are a gesture of Cha
