Chapter 16

Penulis: 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 7793

    As a rule, the void ring required physical contact with the object for a deposit into the inside of the void pocket. That was not necessary when making a withdrawal—Charlie just had to imagine where he wanted the object placed, and it would be placed there.Charlie hence focused his concentration on the thousands of slabs of marble, imagining in his mind where he wanted them.And in an instant, they materialized out on the floor of the plaza. The weight-length ratio of each slab was one to seven, and it thus formed a square when seven were placed adjacent to each other. While Charlie arranged them into a bigger square with an empty center, he stacked up to seven layers of slabs. Once the first layer was done, he lay the second layer horizontally so each layer intersected at a 90 degree angle, ensuring balance instead of directly stacking them over each other.Soon, as more marble slabs flew out of the void pocket into a wall around him, Charlie took Vera's hand and leaped to the

    Even though they quickly passed through the airport by pulling strings, the journey still took at least four hours—two hours was spent in flight, while at least one hour was spent in the car.After all, Crane's Cry was far away from Westron's cities. The dozen mile journey wasn't all that far, and an hour was the optimal travel duration considering the complicated paths.And that's just reaching the mountain—they still needed an hour to walk to the cave where the portal was, since Charlie was with Vera.If they had a helicopter, that certainly spared them a lot of time, needing just twenty minutes instead of traveling by car.As they alighted and trekked up Crane's Cry along the lightless mountain road, it was another hour before they finally reached the cave where the portal was hidden.Holding Vera's hand, Charlie cast the mental incantation in his mind, and they were suddenly inside.It was dark outside, but the interior of the cave had a mild, comfortable glow just like the A

    Vera agreed with Charlie—the ring itself could teleport an owner it acknowledged, and that already made it one of the best forms of transportation there was. In fact, those ancient cultivators who reigned before the Degenerate Age of Dharma didn't even need a fixed point portal to teleport from one place to another—they could have just gone to any place they liked with the ring.And yet, for some reason, the teleportation function of the ring could only be triggered when it's life-or-death situations…However, even as Charlie was left utterly confused, Vera was racking her brains and then suggested an idea, "Perhaps the ring does have a teleportation function, but you had yet to trigger it?"Charlie was left taken aback for three seconds, and cringed as he admitted solemnly, "Well, that makes sense…"He trailed off, when it came to his mind and he quickly asked, "In that case, why make those nine portals across the world?"Vera smiled as she explained her idea. "Let's consider t

    Vera yelped in fright—she had never seen so many bugs swarming in a split second, and promptly hid behind Charlie.Charlie wasn't afraid of insects, but was still more or less unsettled seeing such a dense swarm, and hence channeled his Reiki into a strong gale, blowing them away.Still a little confused, Vera asked, "Where did those bugs come from? That's too many…"Charlie shook his head somberly. "They were probably dwelling in the soil I took.""Dwelling?" Vera blurted in surprise. "You can't move them along with the soil?"Charlie was surprised by Vera's quick thinking once again, and thought about it. "Probably not. But I didn't think of them when I moved the soil, so the technique didn't move them as well."Vera nodded in understanding. "That means any form of fauna can be put inside, only flora.""That's right," Charlie replied. "As the void pocket has no concept of time, plants won't grow further… But it seems that any form of fauna—even the non-sentient—can't be put in

    The helicopter soon arrived in the woods south of Aurous Hill, where Coldie had blown himself up.The crater was now filled with life, with wild tall grass thriving. However, with the trees blown away, it was a perfect circular dent in the ground that they could land on safely.Vera handily turned off the ignition, and the rotors slowly stopped.As she got off with Charlie, she suddenly turned sharply back to stare at the light helicopter and asked, "Do you think you can put that in the void pocket too?"Charlie smiled and nodded. "Sure, since it's quite spacious in there."Vera grinned at him expectantly. "Well, can you demonstrate?"Seeing the sparkle in her eyes, Charlie naturally decided against being a buzzkill. Putting his palms on the helicopter, he thought of the mental incantation to insert objects into the void pocket.The helicopter disappeared instantly, appearing again in the center of the void pocket as he thought in his mind.Vera gaped as Charlie held his palm

    Moreover, buying aircraft wasn't particularly difficult. Unlike passenger planes, cargo planes didn't require ordering from manufacturers and waiting for delivery times that can easily exceed one or two years. Currently, the vast majority of cargo planes in the international air logistics sector were basically converted retired passenger aircraft, accounting for at least 90% of all air cargo fleets—most being over twenty or even thirty years old. Using such aircraft for passenger transport might be nerve-wracking for passengers, but they were perfectly viable for carrying cargo.However, Charlie made one specific request to Isaac: no short-to-medium-range narrow-body cargo planes. While those planes were a lucrative tool for ordinary courier companies operating domestic trunk lines, they were completely useless to him. He needed ultra-long-range cargo planes with a range of over ten thousand miles for dispatching cargo between continents.After instructing Isaac on what to do, Char

    Royce, who was standing nearby, witnessed a textbook fence-sitter. Earlier, his uncles had surrounded Julien so tightly that he couldn't squeeze through.

    Hearing Jacob's tone, Charlie could tell that Jacob must have already learned about Matilda's plans to marry Yolden. So, Charlie said, "I'm just around the corner. I'll head over now, and we can meet at the gate." Choking up, Jacob replied, "Alright, I won't drive then. I'll wait for you at the

    It would be the easiest if they were dead. All that had to be done was to find their bodies and bring them home to Jennie. If it was the second or third possibility, the mission was to find Edmund and Salem, whether they were hiding voluntarily or involuntarily. It would be considered done when they
