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?

    Quinn nodded slightly. "Okay, we'll come over once we're finished!"Tanya then turned to smile at Charlie. "Do listen to 'Assassin' if you have the time, Mr. Wade. The translated lyrics really touched me."Charlie had never liked music and wouldn't particularly go out of his way to listen to pop songs.As for concerts, he had only ever attended the concerts of two artists, and they were both here in the room.Still, he made a mental note to study up on the song, although he wasn't sure if he had heard Quinn sing it when he had last seen her in concert.Even remembering it now, watching Quinn's concert had been quite entertaining.The first one had been in Aurous Hill, but he had been too worried about Quinn confessing her love to him to enjoy it.The second was in New York, but while he thought he could enjoy the concert for a change, he had discovered that the Qing Eliminating Society was coming for the Ackers.On the way back, Charlie linked his phone via Bluetooth to the MPV

    Charlie never dreamt that two women would be so dead set on making him dance for them at the same time.All six feet of him? Dance?However, before he could refuse, Quinn hugged his arm and pouted, "Please, Charlie… Just this once, okay? It's not even a dance—it's just wire stunts and some martial arts choreography. Also, you'd be wearing full armor that covers your face and even your hands. No one would even see your little finger."While Tanya was aware she had no right to pout at Charlie, she nodded and smiled expectantly, "Mr. Wade, if you can join us for our duet, I'm sure it would be an unforgettable memory.""Exactly!" Quinn nodded eagerly. "And you didn't promise me what I asked before, so you can promise me this one, right?"Charlie couldn't help relenting from seeing her pouting. As Quinn insisted that it was just some martial arts choreography, he said solemnly, "You promised—I won't show my face, or I'd embarrass myself."Seeing that Charlie had relented, Quinn hugg

    Pausing, Tanya then continued, "I'd like more interaction, ideally singing one of your songs and then one of mine, as well as a solo performance from you. What do you think?""No problem. I can basically sing all your songs," Quinn smiled cheerfully, but then asked worriedly, "But most of my songs are in Oskian… Will you be able to manage?""Of course!" Tanya nodded, smiling. "I've been following your work too. Being artists, we tend to have a good memory when it comes to rhythm and lyrics, though lyrics will be a little challenging, but that's fine. Besides, don't forget that we have teleprompters, and even with the language barrier, I could use transliteration, and that's most of the song done!"Charlie smiled and nodded as well. "I've seen artists do that abroad, and even the singers in the country do the same… There were still some that screwed up anyway, and it ended up being a viral meme."Quinn laughed. "So, you still remember?"Charlie chuckled. "It really was that infamou

    Tanya might not have regarded Quinn with much importance in the past—she was at least a few ranks beneath her as a singer, after all.At present, most globally influential artists lived in the western hemisphere, which had a lot to do with English being the universal language, and it was also how Hollywood remained on top of showbiz.Quinn may be influential amongst Oskians all over the world, but it didn't apply to the rest.That wasn't the case for Tanya, who was endlessly popular in almost every country—even where there was a language barrier. That was how she had risen as a global phenomenon.Even then, at this very moment, all her thoughts were on getting into Quinn's good graces.She really had no idea what the connection between Quinn and Charlie was, but she could tell from Charlie and Quinn's exchange that Charlie really cared about Quinn.And in Tanya's mind, if Charlie cared about Quinn, so must she.Quinn was ready to be starstruck herself and was surprised that said

    Charlie was stumped.He definitely did not expect Quinn to say that out loud, as he really expected her to share a tacit understanding not to press the issue.He didn't expect Quinn to just give up on pretenses and say it out loud.Still, he suddenly realized that this wasn't just a matter of perpetuating his lineage.For Quinn, this was just as important to her… If not more.And seeing his conflict, Quinn quietly reached over to tug on his arm, assuring him, "You don't have to feel pressured. I've got your back no matter what happens."Charlie nodded quietly, but he wasn't at ease at all despite his calmness.-Shangri-la was already congested with journalists when they arrived, as everyone was hoping to catch an exclusive for Tanya's first concert in Eastcliff.Fortunately, Shangri-la was sublime when it came to protecting their guests' privacy, clearing out the entire top floor for Tanya and her crew.Aside from the presidential suite booked for Tanya, the other business s

    Quinn's words left Charlie feeling a little awkward, as he didn't expect her to see through him right then.Even as he drove, he chuckled awkwardly, "No, I'm not hiding… We're going straight to Tanya to discuss your cameo…"Quinn smiled, shaking her head. "Please. I know we've been apart for years, but I still know you."She didn't make it obvious, but Charlie knew full well that she could read his mind.But while he wasn't sure how to respond, she added, "There are plenty of things that are less complicated than you think, and priority matters—it can wait."Charlie nodded, sighing. "I guess the old folks are getting a little impatient."Quinn nodded too, her tone serious, "There are plenty of things they're worried about, especially the situation where you might fail. But I'm not worried."Charlie chuckled. "You're that confident in me?""Yep!" Quinn replied bluntly, having unconditional faith in him.She wouldn't doubt it for a moment if Charlie were to one day claim the wor

    Charlie clasped his fist together. “Thank you then, brother.”Very soon, a heavy-duty civil helicopter slowly landed on the top of the mountain.Before the helicopter had landed completely, Gary and Isaac had already jumped out from the left and right sides of the helicopter. They hurriedly stepped fo

    Charlie said, “That will not be necessary. The reason why I am calling you is because I want to ask for your advice on certain matters.”Doris hurriedly said, “Young Master, you are being too polite with me. You can just speak up if you have any questions for me, and I will certainly try my best to a

    “Yes…” Sophie hurriedly said, “It was all thanks to my benefactor that time. Otherwise, my brother and I would have already died in the hands of those Japanese ninjas.”Jefferson sighed heartily before he said, “He could easily kill multiple ninjas all by himself. This is simply too remarkable. It wo
