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 7119

    Charlie checked out the backstage area as Tanya and her dancers rehearsed.It was cold, but she was dressed scantily and boldly. Charlie wasn't even sure what she was wearing and thought it somehow looked like sportswear.Her legs were completely bare—long, but instead of slender, had just a hint of robust muscles.Charlie looked on, completely bored, when Yolden suddenly appeared, smiling as he greeted him. "Mr. Wade, you're early.""Just Charlie," Charlie chuckled. "No reason to get all formal with me."Yolden nodded solemnly. "And here I was going to call you Young Master Wade until I remembered it would be a problem for you."Charlie sighed in exasperation and changed the subject. "So, how are the preparations? I'm sure just the fans' entries are a lot of work."Yolden nodded. "That's why we set up six entrances and 18 checkpoints where ID, passport, or other certifications will be requested. There will also be facial recognition software, so there most likely won't be any

    "Sure thing," Jacob nodded, putting down the car keys and getting ready to put on his shoes.However, just as he reached the door, he turned and took the car key before actually leaving.Charlie was confused as he thought Jacob had changed his mind and was going to drive, but he looked outside the window to see that Jacob had left with Claire without driving.While he was still wondering why Jacob would take the key, he saw him hanging the key over his belt and immediately understood.Even if the man couldn't drive the Cullinnan, dangling it still effectively helped him show off.He sighed—no one did it like Jacob.Soon, he left too, renting a bike which he rode to Aurous Hill Olympic Centre.He was not actually going to offer a Feng Shui consultation. Instead, as the main sponsor was Curtis Autos, he was going to see if any issues needed handling.After all, there would definitely be people holding resold tickets and trying to slip in, and if they managed to get past the check

    Soon, it was Tanya's first concert in Aurous Hill, with residents of the town already feeling the 'Tanya Effect'.There were clearly a lot more people everywhere, and everything from taxis to hotels was completely booked, while traffic became a lot worse as rush hour seemed constant.Even Aurous Hill's tourist spots were getting congested, with tourists from other cities and abroad taking photos everywhere.Official statistics reported over fifty thousand visitors, most of whom had booked flights or train tickets ahead of time.Charlie was at first curious that the four concerts in Aurous Hill meant two hundred thousand guests give or take, so what was up with all the foreigners?It was only later that he found out that the diehard fans came for Tanya anyway, even without a ticket, as they were just that passionate.It was also alleged that on the day of, there would be more people outside than inside Aurous Hill Olympic Centre.It seemed that the fans were willing to stand outs

    Charlie smiled. "That's right. Send your invite since Julien's here, anyway. Then, if they ignore it, have Julien send it instead. I'm sure they won't refuse if it's him, and bring them and Matt to the after-party once they show up. They'd be even more horrified at that point."We could even set up the meeting here in Heaven Springs, so make sure to make them pay once they take their seats, ideally crying when they head home. That way, none of them will hold any illusion of making a move against you while also paying the price for what they did."Tanya gasped. "Mr. Wade… You're asking me to extort them?""Compensate!" Charlie corrected her solemnly. "Both you and I. I mean, I sure feel bad after killing so many people back in Japan, and they are even dining in Heaven Springs—shouldn't they pay accordingly? Heaven Springs is soon branching out, too, so it's not too much to ask, right?"While Tanya had no idea about Charlie's tactics, Julien was absolutely familiar.Nodding in agree

    Naturally, neither Tanya nor Trevor had any idea who Charlie really was.Back in Tokyo, the fact that he could call Julien directly was already beyond belief.As such, never could they have expected that Julien, whose wealth could match nations, would come straight to Aurous Hill just like them.And he had brought along Matt on top of that!Tanya promptly nodded respectfully as she said, "Mr. Rothschild, thank you so much for saving me from that bounty."Julien promptly shook his head and said calmly, "It's all because Mr. Wade asked, or I wouldn't have intervened."Then, turning to Matt, he added sternly, "The same goes for you. I wouldn't have spared your life or kept you around if Mr. Wade hadn't asked.Matt was himself a sly old fox, sharp enough to catch on to the pecking order, and he quickly stood up, bowing his head at Charlie. "Thank you for saving my life, Mr. Wade. I'd probably be dead if you hadn't intervened…"Charlie chuckled. "None of you should thank me this muc

    Furthermore, Tanya stood at the top when it came to global influence, and if she chose to reveal what she knew, news would spread far and wide.It was why Matt's cabal had been so eager to have her killed.Charlie chuckled, seeing how nervous Tanya was. Calm down—you're in Oskia, not America or Japan. No one can hurt you here."That calmed Tanya somewhat, and she nodded quietly.Charlie then gestured for her and Trevor to sit to his left, while Julien and Matt sat to his right, keeping himself in between so as to ease Tanya's nerves.Matt was feeling embarrassed, too. He would have liked to greet Tanya, but to start things off like that simply felt wrong.He would have liked to apologize as well, but he was also aware that he was truly inconsequential at this table.Beside him, Julien had yet to say a word, while Charlie, who was above Julien in the pecking order, had not mentioned the beef between them, so speaking up right now would seem tactless.Trevor recognized Matt, too—
