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 7835

    Rachel quickly told her, "Did you forget? Your granduncle told you not to run your mouth, or to discuss any details with your parents."However, Rob shook his head, his face serious. "That's what he said, but my parents are more family to me than he is. He's like my grandfather's brother…"Rachel shook her head, her face grim. "If that's your mindset, you'll become no different from your grandfather—eventually reduced to a collateral branch. And you most certainly won't have a chance to inherit much of anything."Rob was taken aback. "What? Why?""Because you don't know how to pick a side!" Rachel snapped sternly. "Whether you become the main beneficiary of your parents' inheritance isn't up to your parents, but your grandfather. First, your own father needs to be appointed as heir from amongst his siblings. And even if he is chosen, you still have to compete against your own siblings. One misstep, and it's game over!"Rob's expression stiffened and he asked gingerly, "W-Well, wha

    Unlike Beverly Hills or Bay Area's glamorous neighborhoods, the rich and the powerful of Miami dwelled on artificial islands lining the coastline. Such islands might not have bridges or roads, which meant the residents would move between home and the mainland by helicopter or yacht.And the Gettys reside in one of the most expensive islands where US property values peak, far beyond real estate in New York, Beverly Hills, or Hawaii.With their background in manufacturing industries, the Gettys were a sucker of appearances. Their mansion occupied a third of their island, even on an island composed of multiple mansions. The island itself was a mile from the coastline, and there was a villa by the beach that served as a transit point—residents usually parked their cars there and then headed to the island by helicopter or yacht.As Charlie arrived at the coastline and scouted the area, he decided that he would infiltrate the Gettys' island residence alone and wait for the Qing Eliminat

    Rachel's parents' side of the family shared the same precarious position as Rob's family did in the Rothschilds, with the possibility of becoming a collateral family before long. Still, with Rachel and Rob's relationship going public, Rachel's parents were growing in position in the wider family, with even the chance of claiming leadership.Rachel's mother might be a Scholar, but she was only human and had her own mind on things too.She wasn't just hoping that her own lineage would rise in importance within the Qing Eliminating Society, while her husband would gain further influence within the family. Her own position would naturally elevate in turn, which gave them a bigger say in things.And if they accomplished enough, Rachel's children might even be spared from the life of a Scholar.That was why when she was informed that Rachel would be having dinner with Julien, she immediately notified the Left Military Governorate and the Gettys.Esteban Griffin—the Left Military Gover

    Rachel really didn't expect Charlie to leave just like that, while her poor boyfriend was still in Oskiatown running errands for Julien.Her first thought was that it was hubris—as if Charlie clearly wasn't bothered that the Qing Eliminating Society could turn the tables on him.Still, she soon realized Charlie could afford to be arrogant when Julien was nothing more than Charlie's errand boy, let alone Rob, who was an insignificant Rothschild.For his part, Julien was used to Charlie's volatility, only asking, "You're really not staying for dinner? Rob's going to take a while, but we can get started without him."Charlie waved him off. "No, let's do this some other time. We'll be going to Harvard in a couple of days."Julien promptly smiled and nodded. "No problem. I'll be there."Charlie stood up and told him and Julien, "Take your time. Remember, Rachel—I need my window. You can leave when I reach Miami."Rachel naturally read Charlie's plan right away.The Left Military Go

    Julien then returned to the private room, smiling at Charlie, "You were asking for me, sir?"Charlie nodded, beckoning for him to sit. "I need a favor.""Oh, there's no need to get so formal!" Julian quickly replied. "It's my honor to be of service!"At that point, Rachel was numb to Julien fawning all over Charlie and simply watched in silence.She also realized further that if she cooperated, Charlie would have Julien make it worthwhile for her family. Naturally, it didn't necessarily mean money, but importance in the Qing Eliminating Society so that life would get easier for her family.Charlie then told Julien, "I'd like a sudden, sharp inflation of international crude oil prices today, or the sooner the better."Julien didn't even flinch, instead merely asking, "By how much?""Ten percent, at least."Julien breathed a sigh of relief and grinned confidently, "Well, that's easy. We've been manipulating gas prices for a while now, and it's causing the wild fluctuations ever

    After ordering food, Julien took his time returning to the private room.He knew perfectly well that even though he was Julien Rothschild—the heir apparent of the illustrious Rothschild family, he was still less than a lackey to Charlie. If anything, it was not Charlie wanting anything to do with his insignificant grandnephew, and there was more to this dinner than he thought. But since it was something private with Rob's girlfriend, Julien knew that the sensible thing to do here was to keep Rob out.Rob was still happily oblivious. Hence, seeing that Julien was still staying after making orders, asked, "Shouldn't we go back, granduncle?""Not yet," Julien beckoned. "Wait here. I need to take a call."Rob was puzzled, but didn't dare question Julien and only nodded.Julien stepped out of the kitchen to call Charlie, asking respectfully, "Mr. Wade? Can I bring Rob over now?""Wait," Charlie said. "You can come back, but send Rob on an errand or something for now."Julien nodd

    Tony was furious, and he cursed angrily, “You... You lackeys actually dare to hit me?!”Stephen said coldly, “Three seconds are up. Break his leg!”As soon as they heard these words, many of the members of the Wade family’s collateral families instantly had a stunned expression on their faces. No one
