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 7140

    Hank and the cabal were on the verge of a mental breakdown.They just couldn't understand—the things they did on their own private property were their own concern.Why was this Oskian insisting on hounding them?! It made sense if they were a fellow compatriot feeling a sense of righteousness, but Oskia was on the opposite end of the globe. What was that if not an outrageous sense of justice?!But as the leader, Hank was panicking and asked before he knew it, "Mr. Wade? Why do you insist on making things difficult for us? Unlike Mr. Rothschild, we lack ambition and have already made enough money—money we can waste for the rest of our lives."The difference is that we've simply had a taste of what the mundane could never hope to have, and we derive joy in that. What's the point of living if you would deny us even that?"Pursing his lips pleadingly, he continued, "Let's be reasonable about this, alright? There won't be coercion, and anything goes as long as it's consensual—don't yo

    Once the concert was over, Charlie sent Claire home before heading to Heaven Springs.Claire wasn't worried as Charlie was basically a member of Tanya's crew at this point, and having a meal together after a successful concert was only natural.Tanya arrived at Heaven Springs just as Charlie did, while the cabal were present too.This time, each of them was nervous when they saw Charlie, and he asked when he saw the looks on their faces, "What's up, guys? You don't look as radiant as you did yesterday."Being the representative, Hank cut straight to the chase, "Mr. Wade, may I ask what you did yesterday to affect our potency? Was it poison?""Poison?" Charlie chuckled. "Are you suggesting that there's something capable of castration but is also colorless, painless, tasteless, and doesn't cause any physical reaction at all? Now, that's a miracle if I've ever encountered one."Hank frowned. "So, you're denying it?""Oh, but I'm not," Charlie waved him off. "I did castrate you boys

    After news about those private island escapades and artists' wild parties had gone global, almost every celebrity was suddenly suspected of the same interests.Naturally, that included the Rothschilds—but as the family never really responded to such gossip and rumors, it remained nothing more than speculation.Hank naturally didn't want any trouble for himself, so he chuckled awkwardly, "Please, Mr. Rothschild. There's no reason to get so upset with a bunch of spineless worms like us. We are so insignificant compared to you—""Word of advice? Cut the crap," Julien snorted in disdain. "Pay up for dinner, and I mean both nights. That's 20 million per head, and I'll send the account number later. Your deal with Mr. Wade is your business—I won't intervene.""Oh, okay!" Hank promptly agreed to it.Naturally, he wasn't keen on spending a billion outright, but he could spend 20 million for now and see how things went. After flattering Julien before hanging up, Hank was glowering as he

    The rest of the cabal thought about it and nodded slightly—eliminate the impossible, and whatever remained, however improbable, had to be the truth.Hence, voting Hank as their representative, they contacted Julien.Julien was just hating on them to the bone.He had really thought that everyone would show him, the heir apparent of the Rothschilds, due respect.But as it turned out, those geezers were sick and twisted—so obsessed with their fetish that they were willing to give up on their future.And they had definitely called his bluff.Even as the heir apparent of the Rothschilds, the only threat he posed was enforcing boycotts in business, denying them wealth. So, once the cabal decided that they no longer cared how much money they made, as they had enough to spend for the rest of their lives, Julien was no threat to them at all.As such, he was still seething when he got Hank's call first thing in the morning, and he immediately snapped, "What the fuck are you calling me f

    When dawn arrived the next day, the cabal member whose heart had stopped was now stable, along with the rest.The doctors advised them to stay for observation, but they simply brushed past him as they were used to overdosing, even on drugs.By morning, Hank and the rest of the cabal had quickly discharged themselves.Their friend whose heart had stopped was still weakened, but he insisted on leaving too—he was not going to die, and staying in the hospital was pointless.Moreover, the longer they stayed in public, the more likely they could get caught and exposed.Hence, as they left Silverwing Hospital together, Hank asked, "So, did you all notice something strange?""Strange?" One of them asked in return. "You mean it's strange that we're all having… Performance issues?"Hank frowned. "What, are you saying that's not strange?""Well, yeah," the other man nodded, pursing his lips. "I was just wondering if that Oskian man did something to us. Why else would we suffer the same th

    Hank asked, "What? Where are you taking me?""A private ward, Sir," the nurse replied.Hank was shocked. "Wait, does that mean we're still at risk?""You can ask the doctor, not me."As the nurse finished speaking, Hank was wheeled into an independent room.Once the nurse helped Hank settle in, two uniformed officers strode in, one of them staring fixedly at him. "Good evening—we're from Aurous Hill precinct. Can we confirm that you overdosed on sildenafil?"Hank scowled unhappily. "Well, yeah. I took too many pills…"The officer nodded and pressed, "Why would you do that?"Hank scowled even harder. "Because I couldn't get it up!"The officer raised a brow—at least the man was honest.As such, he tried to frame the next question politely, "Do you understand that sex tourism is a violation of Oskian laws?""But it's not sex tourism!" Hank groaned. "I just said I couldn't get it up—like, I'm motivated, but it just ain't working! Are you mocking me, officer?!"The officer purs
