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?

    Seeing Yoshitaka flush, Charlie didn't press the issue and instead turned back to Tanya. "That said, my friend from the States does have influence. I'm sure the bounty is nothing to him."And with that, he whipped out his phone to call his loyal lackey, Julien Rothschild—the designated heir to the Rothschild fortune.Julien had been having a pleasant time lately.With his place as heir now secured, he had also grown closer to Charlie during his time in Oskia, so the only thing that he would want was for his old man to retire.It was morning Stateside, and he was still groggy from sleep as he ate his breakfast.However, all his energy burst forth when he saw that it was Charlie calling, and he answered cheerfully but also respectfully, "Good morning, Mr. Wade. What can I do for you?""Julien," Charlie replied. "Yes, I do need a favor, but I'm not sure you can.""Oh, please!" Julien chirped. "You just need to say the word—anything I can do, I will do it right away. Even if I can't

    "The second option…" Charlie mused to himself for a moment before saying solemnly, "It's to find someone with enough strength to threaten the people who posted the bounty and make them rescind it."Tanya pursed her lips. "That's not a really long list, and there are a lot of people on that list who are also involved in that scandal. Forget helping—it's already a blessing if they weren't accomplices…"Pausing, she then asked, "How about I try to reach out to the president-elect? Make peace, ask for his help?""Making peace is fine, but not at this time," Charlie replied. "First of all, from his perspective, you'd look like you're just using him like a tool to save your own skin. Secondly, he has yet to take office, so his authority is not strong enough. If he pressures the people who posted the bounty on you right now, the people who posted the bounty might not necessarily submit."Moreover, you should know that making peace in this situation is no different from defecting to his

    As soon as they stepped out, the SWAT teams swarmed and subdued them.The Inagawa-kai captain announced, "We're coming out to surrender, Officer! But you have to make sure the Yamaguchi-gai won't shoot us in the back!"Yukihiro himself arrived at the entrance just then and shouted, "Yamaguchi-gai! It's me, Yukihiro! Drop your weapons and surrender! Do not resist!"Being the clear losers of the entire battle royale, the Yamaguchi-gai members were all too happy to be arrested and shouted back, "Yes, Sir! We won't shoot!"Relieved, the Inagawa-kai dropped their weapons and started toward the door.The Bluerockers' leader slipped in amongst the Inugawa-kai and was arrested wholesale.By the time the Yamaguchi-gai members came out, they had been so traumatized from being hunted from the front and back that they were in tears as they were led out.They were veteran gangsters who used to strut in the underworld, but what they were put through today was more than what their minds could

    Yoshiyasu, Yukihiro, and Makoto were left dumbfounded as the Tokyo Commissioner broke the news.Naturally, Yukihiro and Makoto were truly dumbfounded that they had messed up so terribly, whereas Yoshiyasu was just pretending.He had told his samurai to run as soon as they finished their job so that it could never be traced back to him, but that also meant he hadn't received confirmation that they had indeed succeeded.However, he most definitely could believe the Tokyo Commissioner's report—if the man said Yoshitaka and Kokomi were dead, they were definitely dead.Burying his face in his palms, he wailed, "No!!! Yoshitaka… Kokomi! You didn't deserve this… I will definitely avenge you!"Makoto shuddered in fear and quickly said, "L-Listen, Mr. Mitsui. The Yamaguchi-gai got here first, and they stopped my boys from going in. From there, you know for sure that your brother and niece were killed by the Yamaguchi-gai!"Yukihiro was left seething right then—he and Makoto were both goin

    Even as the mob bosses argued furiously, the Tokyo Commissioner had had enough and approached them.Slapping Makoto first and then Yukihiro, he bellowed, "Both of you, shut up! The responsibility is on both your families, so don't think you're getting away for one second! I've already been informed that casualties are in the hundreds, and as the respective leaders of violent gangs, you will both be sentenced short of execution. I will even privately lobby for the courts to send you both to the same cell in the same prison, and you can keep arguing there all you like!"Just hearing that casualties numbered over hundreds and the possibility of a life sentence left both mob bosses in despair and shaking in their boots.They hadn't actually personally overseen their gang's affairs for years now, having delegated everything to their lackeys. Even if they broke the law and someone needed to be punished, they would always make their lackeys do it—mob bosses like them basically stood above

    Just then, two SWAT officers dragged Makoto to the Tokyo Commissioner, announcing, "Commissioner. Takao Makoto of Inagawa-Kai."The Tokyo Commissioner glared at Makoto and growled coldly, "You've had it easy for too long, huh? Or just feeling suicidal?"Makoto quickly flashed an apologetic smile. "Commissioner… Are we sure there hasn't been a misunderstanding?""Misunderstanding, you say?" The Tokyo Commissioner growled murderously. "How many men did you send to kill Tanya Sweet, huh?""Oh, uh…" Makoto trailed off and quickly said, "To tell the truth, I only sent my men after I heard the Yamaguchi-gai were coming, but only to stop the bounty and not claim it. I mean, I'm sure you know by now that some nutjob posted a billion-dollar bounty on the poor girl's head… I mean, a billion US dollars! If the Yamaguchi-gai got it, it's game over for the rest of us!""Bullshit!" An angry bellow thundered just then, and everyone turned to see that it was Yukihiro, who was being brought over
