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 7273

    Both Jeevika and Stephen nodded without hesitation, though the latter was already used to it.The last time he fled the Wades, he promptly got on a boat bound for Tahiti, where he started a life off the grid. It was all because he feared that Charlie would find him, and just a little Reiki would make him talk.It was the first time that Jeevika learned that such a thing was possible, but his expression was determined. "Don't worry, Suzanne. I may have devoted myself to religion, but Madam Wade's orders come above all else. If I should fail, I shall disappear and never again use the title of Master Jeevika."Suzanne nodded in satisfaction, but her expression was solemn. "The three of us owe both Mr. and Madam Wade, and have come to learn the sheer desperation Madam Wade went through in her resistance against the Qing Eliminating Society. "Thank the gods that Charlie proved himself and we may yet see the fall of the Qing Eliminating Society. Even so, he remains a big fish in a small

    Claire didn't tell Charlie or her parents about going to the Qi Temple, as she believed that praying for her family was fine without them knowing, or announcing it out loud.So early next morning, before Elaine and Jacob woke up, she drove straight to QI Temple.The days were cold and the nights longer before the Oskian New Year, and the sun was barely up when Claire headed outside.A group of devotees was already at the gates, always intent on claiming the first offerings in Qi Temple, happily oblivious that the famous Master Jeevika was visiting again.Jeevika was seated cross-legged in a chamber behind the Feather Hall, chanting a mantra while charging the Reiki in his body.He was only wearing a kasaya, but he felt warm as spring.The hall was closed for the day, and there was a partition raised to cut off the entrance into the hall itself, with a sign that read 'closed for the day' as well.After putting everything in place, every monk retreated outside, quietly guarding th

    Claire thought she would be the first, but Momo Sun—her most reliable subordinate, had arrived already.Seeing the other woman, she smiled, "What brings you here this early?""Good Morning, Ms. Wilson," Momo smiled in greeting. "Actually, I went to the Qi Temple, hoping to get a health charm for the family… but I got nothing. It's so frustrating!""Got nothing? How?" Claire asked in curiosity. "Were they closed?""Oh, they were open," Momo shrugged. "But I misremembered Master Jeevika's schedule—he's only coming tomorrow, so I went for nothing.""Master Jeevika?" Claire frowned, murmuring. "Actually, I think I've heard of that name before."Momo grinned. "He's quite famous—one of the youngest high monks in the country, whose insight into Buddhism far surpasses most. He has been traveling between every major temple for the past two years, giving sermons and blessing mystic items. And it's said that his charms are special.""Really?" Claire exclaimed in surprise."Of course!" Mom

    Suzanne's words cleared any qualms Stephen had, and he asked her, "So, when do you think I should make contact with Ms. Wilson, talk to her about it?"Suzanne replied, "Jeevika will be arriving at the Qi Temple in two days, first thing in the morning. Madam Wade's instruction was to lure Ms. Wilson over, and then Jeevika will create an opportunity for you both to have a talk.""Jeevika…" Stephen smiled and asked, "He's now a famous monk, I believe?""Yes," Suzanne nodded and sighed. "He's wise in both Tao and Buddhism, and progressed rapidly thanks to Madam Wade's guidance. Even after his initiation into the Buddhist order, he still serves Madam Wade before anyone else.""And how do we lure Ms. Wilson over?" Stephen asked.Suzanne smiled. Are you aware that Ms. Wilson owns a company?""Of course," Stephen nodded. "It was Charlie who encouraged her to start out with her own workshop, with plenty of bigwigs in Aurous Hill heading over to celebrate its opening.""Yes," Suzanne repl

    As Stephen finished, he looked up at the moon, shrouded by clouds up in the air.Taking a deep breath of the dank, cold winter air, he then sighed. 'I'll be honest—I'm not used to the coldness of the south, and I can't help remembering Charlie. During his first winter at the orphanage, he would be curling into himself under his blanket from the cold."The place was simply rundown and didn't have a room heater, and only a single sheet of glass insulated the windows. I really wanted to do something for him, but was worried that it would draw the wrong attention and had to allow him to suffer frostbite for the first time. I was in Eastcliff, only able to weep for him that winter…"Suzanne nodded and sighed. "The orphanage director sent photos of his limbs and ears getting bruised from the cold, and Madam Wade was often crying looking at them. But in hindsight, those hard times were essential for his life. Without it, there's no way he would have become the man he is today."Stephen no

    After taking a few days' break at Aurous Hill, Charlie flew to Gaston down south.With the year-end of the Oskian calendar, the days were becoming colder, so Gaston was a good spot with its warmer climate.Tanya's last stop was in Rochester, and once the last concert was over, he would fly back to Aurous Hill immediately, and boarded a flight to the Maldives with his family.He was starting to feel spent after tagging along with Tanya's tour, and couldn't wait to get some proper rest during the Oskian New Year.It was not physical fatigue either—he just needed to set his mind at ease and unwind.But while he followed Tanya's tour to Gaston, a freighter had berthed in Gaston's East Harbor.It was an Oskian-registered freighter returning home. The crew would unload all shipments before taking a break, and then weigh anchor for another voyage to Europe.And amongst them was a geezer working as a chef, whom everyone called Mr. Marsden. In reality, he was Stephen Thompson, who serv

    Charlie nodded. When he saw that there was still no sign of Marianne among the people standing outside the car, he subconsciously felt a little disappointed. However, he did not ask Shawn about it again and spoke up, “Mr. Long, it’s getting late. Let’s get in the car and go.”Shawn looked at the time

    Elaine was prepared to ask this question as she thought of this. It was not because she had doubts about Clarissa’s identity, but it was because she felt that she would be able to take a private jet home if the other party really owned a private jet or if they could afford to charter a private jet.J

    When Kathleen heard this, she instantly understood that Marianne was not crying because her cell phone had fallen. So, she said to Charlie, “Oh, Mr. Wade, you still don’t understand women. We are not as tough as boys, so you cannot simply come up with solutions. You have to help us solve the problem
