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 7775

    For Ruby and Penny, Vera's statement was as enlightening as it cleared doubts or embarrassment they felt inside.In the end, the greatest gift a cultivator could give another cultivator wasn't mystic pills, spirit stones, or weapons, but cultivation manuals.It was basically the principle of 'Teach a man to fish', and the fact that Charlie wasn't holding out on them on anything—whether it was mystic pills, spirit stones, or cultivation manuals, made them understand one thing.There was just no point in refusing Charlie's generosity, and using his gifts to the best of their ability was the only proper way to repay that kindness.Hence, Ruby stood up first and bowed her head at Charlie in gratitude. "Thank you for taking such good care of us, Mr. Wade. I vow to dedicate my life to your service!""It's the same for me!" Penny nodded.Their gratitude was clear as day, and Charlie smiled. "That's enough courtesy talk. Anyway, you shall both stay here, and do your best to cultivate wit

    Charlie smiled and nodded. While he believed that mastering the incantation to activate the portals was as amusing as it was practical, he wasn't in a rush.The subterranean city filled with Reiki already surprised him plenty. Whether it was the ring with a void storage or the portal connected to different corners of the world, all of it was there and waiting for him to use them to their maximum potential.Hence, he told the three women, "Wait here."He returned to his room, summoning four chicken-egg-sized spirit stones into his palm with just a thought.Then, returning to the women's room, he handed Ruby and Penny the spirit stones. "Keep these. They are spirit stones—you can absorb the Reiki from one, and save the other."Both Rub and Penny were left gaping.They had never seen spirit stones, but hearing Charlie telling what those spirit stones were immediately prompted them to reach out through Reiki and see if the pebbles really were spirit stones.Naturally, they were bo

    "Spirit stones?!"Both Ruby and Penny were stunned just hearing the world, with Ruby exclaiming, "Well, the Qing Eliminating Society does have a permanent bounty on those. Anyone who finds it and hands it over to Fleur will be rewarded with cultivating pills, cultivation manuals or even promotions within the Qing Eliminating Society… but most never ever encountered one, including myself."Penny nodded in agreement too. "That's right—in the years I've spent in the Qing Eliminating Society, there's always rewards put on offer for bringing Fleur spirit stones. But forget getting one… I've never seen one myself.""So any spirit stone found goes straight to Fleur?" Charlie asked in curiosity. "Yes, as it's to be handed to one's superior immediately," Ruby replied, nodding. "It's always the top in the Qing Eliminating Society's cultivation resource priority list, and even the military governorates must report to headquarters immediately should there be any found."Charlie was surprised

    Ruby and Penny noticed Charlie too, and delightedly rushed to the door with Vera.They felt both shock and pain seeing Charlie's condition, as they didn't expect that he would end up so bruised and battered.His clothes were shredded and barely strips dangling over his body, though it did cover the front and his privates.Vera quickly held his hand, asking worriedly, "Are you alright? Are you hurt?""Just a little," Charlie replied, smiling. "But mostly healed, although the clothes are a problem."Vera's pain was obvious on her face, and she squeezed his hand. "Come inside—I'll get a bath ready and some fresh clothes."Charlie nodded. "Thanks, Ms. Lavor.""You're always welcome," Vera replied, and hurried to the bathroom.Perhaps because Norway had fewer research crew members, they had actual bathtubs instead of showers, as they do at research bases with larger teams. Charlie knew that he was a mess, but it didn't matter and spent his time soaking in the bath and cleaning up,

    However, the negative promotion kept eating at Fleur. It was not as if she didn't trust Elder Barlin's abilities, but her luck always failed her whenever she came up against her mystery foe, and it was always she who lost in what few run-ins they had.So now it wasn't just the four earls or their bases being uprooted one after the other… All the scholars and members she had sent to find out anything they could still couldn't find a thing!That was why, knowing that Barlin had been fighting at the South Pole, Fleur immediately presumed things didn't look good for Barlin.She didn't even have any idea how many foes she actually had, but she knew that Barlin had been alone when he traveled to the South Pole, and then was almost hunted down by the Americans.That meant he was already in dire straits, and wouldn't stand a chance fighting a formidable cultivator on top of that.That was when Tarlon pointed out, "My Lord, the fact that Barlin traveled alone to the South Pole and mind-b

    Most importantly, the fact that Vera's ring didn't teleport Charlie to her side meant he had won, and the thought relieved her right then.Smiling in embarrassment, she explained, "No, I was just feeling a little headache, but I'm better now. We should just stay here and wait for Mr. Wade."Seeing that she was calm, Ruby was relieved and assured her, "There's no reason to worry. Mr. Wade is a great man, and I'm sure he's not in any trouble.""Yes," Vera smiled and nodded. "He'd return to us safely.-Meanwhile, at the Qing Eliminating Society headquarters, Tarlon rushed to Fleur's chambers, entering when he had permission and reporting urgently, "My lord, there's been a situation!"Fleur frowned. "What is it? What's so urgent?""Please take a look at this…" Tarlon said respectfully, handing over a specialized cellphone.Fleur took it skeptically and played the video that was loaded—the news of lightning sighted in deep Antarctica, and her brow creased further and warily. "Forge

    Charlie smiled slightly before he said, “If we solved everything by simply killing the person, then the Webb family would have already been dead a long time ago. Some people deserve to die and they must be killed as soon as possible—for instance, those people from the Beggar Clan. However, it would
