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 7277

    Even as Claire finished, her heart skipped a beat as she mused to herself.Emgrand Group, the Wades, and Charlie Wade… could there be some connection between them?She then remembered her own family having troubles when news spread that Emgrand Group was changing hands. At the time, her grandmother was intent on securing a project with Emgrand, and sent Claire herself as a representative. She didn't know what to do and thought they stood no chance. And yet, to her surprise, Doris Young, the vice chairwoman of Emgrand, had been very approving of her. Not only had Doris awarded Claire the contract, she had even attended the Wilson family's press conference in person.At the time, Claire just couldn't understand what merited such privilege, but it all makes sense if Charlie was indeed connected to the Wades…Getting nervous, she looked up at Jeevika and asked, "Master Jeevika… Are you suggesting that my husband is a member of the Wade family?"Jeevika never answered, instead co

    The fog over the truth shall fade!Jeevika's words really struck a chord with Claire.When it came to those questions in her mind, she would never ask them if Charlie didn't volunteer the information, and certainly no third party would answer them.That was why she always kept those questions buried, and used Charlie's logic to reassure herself from time to time.But when Jeevika said 'The fog over the truth shall fade', it felt like a sudden lightning bolt tore through the thick fog clouding the truth, setting a flame to the curiosity she kept repressed.Hence, she looked up enthusiastically at Jeevika. "Please, Master Jeevika. I'd like to know!"Jeevika nodded and said solemnly, "Your husband's destiny is truly one in a billion. That's why he is fated to rise above everyone else in strength and position, worshipped by millions.""Huh…?" Claire frowned. "He's not as impressive as that. He's just had a little success from self-taught Feng Shui, and it's true that major business

    Jeevika smiled. "It's alright. Just give me their names and birth date, and I can more or less divine the hour."Claire nodded and asked, "Well, who should I start with?"Jeevika smiled. "Your parents, and then your husband.""Okay."Claire then told Jeevika her parents' names and birthdate, and Jeevika pinched several different fingers to divine for a moment, before smiling, "Their birth hour may see some tribulations fated in life, but overall speaking, they will enjoy wealth, prestige, and longevity.""Really?" Clarie was beside herself in joy. After all, what was life about if not for pursuing wealth, prestige, and longevity? If what Jeevika said was true, she really didn't have to worry about her parents.For his part, Jeevika wasn't just running his mouth either—both Jacob and Elaine did have it hard in their early life. But ever since Charlie became a big fish in a small pond, their lives changed dramatically and didn't lack riches or prestige. Moreover, with Charl

    Most of the worshippers coming to Qi Temple would head straight to the Prana Hall or the Vajra Hall, praying there before moving on to the other halls.As Claire entered with Momo, she had no idea where she should go.Momo, however, seemed to have a plan and immediately pointed at a hallway further to the edge of the main hall, smiling mysteriously. "Since we're here to seek providence, we definitely can't follow the crowd. If anything, we should avoid it—it's a select few who gain such privilege, after all!"Claire smiled, shaking her head. "Alright, since you're definitely more experienced than I am—lead the way."Momo nodded repeatedly, hugging Claire's arm and heading down the hallway, making many turns down different paths until they finally arrived at the gates of the Feather Hall.The 'closed for the day' sign had been removed, and Momo pointed inside as she told Claire, "Let's try this place."Claire was bemused. "There are so many different halls in this temple—we can't

    Both Jeevika and Stephen nodded without hesitation, though the latter was already used to it.The last time he fled the Wades, he promptly got on a boat bound for Tahiti, where he started a life off the grid. It was all because he feared that Charlie would find him, and just a little Reiki would make him talk.It was the first time that Jeevika learned that such a thing was possible, but his expression was determined. "Don't worry, Suzanne. I may have devoted myself to religion, but Madam Wade's orders come above all else. If I should fail, I shall disappear and never again use the title of Master Jeevika."Suzanne nodded in satisfaction, but her expression was solemn. "The three of us owe both Mr. and Madam Wade, and have come to learn the sheer desperation Madam Wade went through in her resistance against the Qing Eliminating Society. "Thank the gods that Charlie proved himself and we may yet see the fall of the Qing Eliminating Society. Even so, he remains a big fish in a small

    Claire didn't tell Charlie or her parents about going to the Qi Temple, as she believed that praying for her family was fine without them knowing, or announcing it out loud.So early next morning, before Elaine and Jacob woke up, she drove straight to QI Temple.The days were cold and the nights longer before the Oskian New Year, and the sun was barely up when Claire headed outside.A group of devotees was already at the gates, always intent on claiming the first offerings in Qi Temple, happily oblivious that the famous Master Jeevika was visiting again.Jeevika was seated cross-legged in a chamber behind the Feather Hall, chanting a mantra while charging the Reiki in his body.He was only wearing a kasaya, but he felt warm as spring.The hall was closed for the day, and there was a partition raised to cut off the entrance into the hall itself, with a sign that read 'closed for the day' as well.After putting everything in place, every monk retreated outside, quietly guarding th

    Finley knew very well that as soon as the Fox family began investigating the line of Japanese ninjas, it would be easy for them to find clues about the Iga ninjas.He could not help but mutter to himself, “How can the Iga ninjas be a match for the Fox family? When they face the Fox family, they will

    Merlin sighed. “But I still don’t quite understand why they would want to draw the Fox family into the spotlight. Are they going to make a move against the Fox family in front of the whole world?! That would be too arrogant and the whole world will not forgive them for it. By then, they will definit

    At this moment, at Shangri-La.The auction was already over, but Charlie didn’t leave immediately. He originally prepared a whole Rejuvenating Pill for the three VIPs tonight, half of which was to be given to his grandfather, Jeremiah. The other half would be divided into two, to be given to Old Mast

    “Never mind.” Charlie pointed at the stack of documents relating to the cargo ship, which was lying in front of Andre. He hissed through gritted teeth, “That cargo ship will be yours if I can’t turn things around tonight!”Andre laughed and said excitedly, “Okay! Mr. Wade, you really are easygoing! I
