Chapter 04

Author: Lord Leaf
This was also the first time Charlie had ever met Doris.

He had to admit that Doris was a very stunning and alluring young lady!

She was about twenty-seven or eight years of age with a slender yet plump body figure, captivating appearance, and a very mature and honorable manner.

Sitting down in front of Doris’s desk, Charlie started, “I will not come into the office often, so I would like you to continue looking over the company on my behalf. In addition, please do not disclose my identity to the public.”

Doris was aware that Mr. Wade, who was sitting in front of her now, came from the extraordinary Wade family. For a prominent family like theirs, Emgrand Group was nothing but a mediocre business, so it was normal for him not to manage it himself. Hence, she quickly said, “Sure. Mr. Wade, just tell me if you need anything, I’ll be at your service.”

At this moment, a secretary knocked on the door and said, “Miss Young, a man called Gerald White and his fiancé are here to see you.”

Doris said instantly, “I’m seeing a VIP now, let them wait.”

Charlie asked, “Do you know Gerald White?”

“Mr. White’s family is one of our partners and several of their major projects are linked to our company. They have said that they will be here to see me, they have been here several times too.”

Charlie uttered in a cold voice, “From now on, Emgrand Group would no longer have any business dealings with the White family. Halt all ongoing and preparatory projects. If the White family still earns a dime from our company, I don’t need you as our vice-chairman!”

Doris startled in shock for a while, figuring that someone from the White family must have offended the man. So, she nodded vigorously and exclaimed, “Mr. Wade, don’t worry, I’ll now order my staff to stop all collaboration with the White family!”

Charlie nodded satisfyingly and said, “Tell them that Emgrand Group has no interest in collaborating with lowly garbage, then ask the guards to kick them out.”

***

Outside the office, Gerald and Wendy were waiting anxiously.

The White family had always wanted to be the key players in the collaboration with Emgrand Group, so he hoped that he could build a good relationship with Doris Young and thus bring the family closer to the connection.

However, the least expected thing happened. Doris’s secretary approached them with several guards.

Gerald asked in confusion, “Hi, may I know if Miss Young is available to see us now?”

The secretary glared coldly at him and said, “Sorry, our vice-chairman said that Emgrand Group has no interest in collaborating with lowly garbage like you. From now on, we will cancel all the projects with your family!”

“What did you say?!”

Gerald gaped in extreme shock and his jaw almost dropped to the floor. Why did he find the remark so familiar anyway?

Oh, right! Charlie Wade said the exact same thing when they were in the parking lot!

What did Doris Young mean by that? Did she really intend to halt all the collaboration with the White family?

Gerald felt a surge of blood flooding her head, exploding inside.

What happened?

Canceled all projects?

A large portion of the White family’s profits came from working with Emgrand!

If Emgrand Group terminated their ties, didn’t it mean that the family’s net worth would be cut by half?

No, he couldn’t accept such a cruel fact. He growled loudly, “I want to see Miss Young! I want to ask her in person!”

The secretary simply glared at him coldly. “I’m sorry, Miss Young will not see you and you’re not allowed here in the future!”

Gerald shouted in great dismay, “Are you freaking kidding me? We are a long-term business partner of Emgrand, it isn’t up to her to terminate our projects just like that! Don’t mess with us!”

The secretary ignored his screaming and directed the security guards around her, “Kick them out!”

The head of the security team immediately jumped on them. He grabbed Gerald’s wrist and twisted it hard behind him.

Gerald yelped in pain and Captain Cooper snorted coldly. “Hurry and get out of here! If you dare make a scene at Emgrand Group, I’ll break you in half!”

“You’re just a security guard, how dare you raise your voice at me? Do you know who I am?”

Captain Cooper gave him a slap across his face instantly and shouted, “What are you in the face of Emgrand Group?”

Gerald felt his face burning from the slap. He was about to burst in fury when his phone suddenly rang.

It was his father.

When he answered the call, a furious roar echoed from the other end of the line. “You b*stard! What did you do? Emgrand Group wants to terminate all projects with us! Who on earth did you offend?”

Gerald whined sorrowfully, “No, Dad, that’s not true, I didn’t offend anyone. I just came here to see Miss Young, but I haven’t even seen her face yet…”

Gerald’s father shouted again. “The people at Emgrand Group said that they’ve terminated their collaboration with us because of you, the lowly garbage! It’s all because of you that our family is suffering a great loss! Hurry and come back, explain this to your grandfather yourself!”

Grabbing the phone in a daze, Gerald and Wendy were forcefully escorted out of Emgrand Group’s main entrance.

Suddenly, Charlie’s face appeared in his mind. He turned to Wendy abruptly and asked, “Wendy, is it because of your loser cousin-in-law? Does he have anything to do with Emgrand Group?”

“Huh?” Wendy was obviously taken aback by Gerald’s remark. When she pondered the circumstances, it might indeed have something to do with the loser, but he was a loser!

Thus, she shook her head and uttered firmly, “No, it is absolutely impossible that he has anything to do with Emgrand Group. He is not even qualified to clean their toilets!”

“You’re right…” Gerald nodded numbly. He hung his head low when he thought about his angry father. “I have to return home right away…”

Very soon, the news of the White family being kicked out by Emgrand Group spread throughout Aurous Hill like wildfire.

No one knew of the reason, but they were certain that the White family must have offended Emgrand Group in some way.

At this rate, the White family was considered gone.

Their net worth had been cut short by more than half. They were originally close to the peak of the social ladder in the city, but after the incident, they instantly dropped down several levels and became a second-rate family in terms of social class.

Lady Wilson was shaking with anger when she heard the news.

She wanted to call off Wendy’s engagement with Gerald, but even after the termination, the White family was still more prominent than the Wilson family and she couldn’t afford to lose the ties, so she could only bear with it for the moment.

***

Meanwhile, in Doris’s office, Charlie looked impressed and satisfied after he heard about the process. He highly appreciated her rapid and stern attitude in it.

He said with a satisfied smile, “Doris, great job, you did well. Starting today, your salary will be doubled.”

Doris gaped in astonishment. She stood up and bowed respectfully. “Thank you, Mr. Wade!”

Charlie nodded and continued, “Also, I want you to make two announcements.”

“Yes, please proceed.”

“The first thing is to announce the change of Emgrand Group’s ownership and nomination of the new chairman, but don’t disclose my identity. Just say that he is one Mr. Wade.”

“The second thing is the announcement of Emgrand Group investing two billion dollars to build a six-star hotel in Aurous Hill, and announcing the tender bidding for partners. Construction and interior decorating companies throughout the city are welcome to bid!”

The main business of Wilson Group was interior design and construction. The old lady would dream of hopping on Emgrand’s cruise. Whoever could win the bidding with Emgrand Group would surely become the most sought-after person in the company.

Now that he owned Emgrand Group, he should offer his wife some sweet deals.

  • The Charismatic Charlie Wade   Chapter 6824

    Just the word "transition" left the cavalry guards on the platform anxious.Family was the biggest reason they still served the Qing Eliminating Society, and now, they were being told that they would be separated indefinitely.After that, the only thing they could do would be to serve the Qing Eliminating Society until they died, most likely without ever seeing their family again.Seeing everyone sulking, Penny frowned and demanded coldly, "What? Did you all not take a vow to serve? Are you giving us an attitude just because we're separating you from your families temporarily?!"While her words infuriated everyone even more, no one dared argue because she was a praetor, a senior official who directly answered to the governor.Despite being a Singer and not a Griffin, she was still a relative and therefore, a VIP.Moreover, she was a cultivator whose cultivation ranked much higher than theirs, meaning that she had both the authority and strength to execute them as she saw fit.Wi

    As such, even if the trap in Nigeria failed, Fleur still had to prevent the possibility of every personnel in a dead soldier base completely deserting their posts.And for that, she had come up with the transition plan. By separating the armed cavalry guard from their families, they wouldn't be able to run away with them. And with new cavalry guards transferred to unfamiliar surroundings, any camaraderie that had grown over the years would fade.In this way, if Fleur's mysterious foe came after another dead soldier base, none of the cavalry guards would even think of insubordination—not with their families' lives at stake. If any of them were to go missing for too long, their families would be massacred immediately.On the contrary, if they fought and died courageously and left a pretty corpse, their families would be honored.Simply put, the families of each cavalry guard were being threatened to ensure loyalty unto death.Fleur was naturally confident that once the transition wa

    Everyone quickly tensed up at Penny's mention of the 'transition', though it was Roy who quickly asked in a respectful tone, "If I may, Praetor… What does this 'transition' entail?"Penny calmly replied, "Everyone's reaction makes it clear that you've all heard the rumors. You are a cavalry guard, and that means you're not kept in the dark like the dead shoulders… Are you really sure that your superiors never told you anything? Why ask me?"Roy promptly bowed his head frantically. "I won't presume to speculate about our superior's orders, so I'm humbly asking now that you've mentioned it, Praetor. If you find it inconvenient to disclose the details, just pretend that I ever asked..."Penny smiled ever so faintly. "I guess it's no issue to tell you. While I came for something else, it's been dragging long enough that it's finally time to start preparing.”Pausing, she looked around at everyone before she continued, "See, this transition means a major rotation in locations for cavalr

    Even as night descended upon central Morocco, the lights were still up in every phosphate mine.No one was stopping to ensure efficiency, with every mining equipment still running at full capacity, the drills tunneling frantically through the white phosphate layers.Duca Mines was no exception.However, only the Qing Eliminating Society's armed cavalry guards and their families were working above ground. They did not want the dead soldiers and their families scouting their surroundings, and so, they never let them above ground in a conscious state.As such, the dead soldiers usually lived and trained underground, only sent out covertly by the armed cavalry guards when they were on a mission.And at the moment, none of the cavalry guards across the entire mining area was taking a break. In addition to the mines and the refinery, there were hundreds of others continuing the construction of the towering steel towers in various parts of the mines.By now, most of the towers were comp

    Once everything was explained in no uncertain terms, the owner did as instructed and asked the workers to cease operations temporarily.All the processed canned food was moved to the warehouse once it left the industrial steamer, which would, in turn, be the food supply for the dead soldiers who would soon be moved there.The owner also quickly suspended purchases from local marine produce suppliers, citing issues with their production line that would halt operations for the immediate future. It wouldn't arouse suspicion either, as many other food processing plants would temporarily suspend operations over a variety of reasons, and they were also located in a remote area that was economically underdeveloped.With the deal sealed, the owner happily drove home, a few hundred grand richer thanks to Merlin.At this point on, without any workers staying behind, Merlin basically had full control over the food processing plant.He quickly divided and categorized the plant floor into t

    Merlin definitely worked fast—once the agreement was reached, he paid the owner of the food processing plant twenty grand up front just to sweeten the deal before asking the Acker family's agent in Africa to prepare the remaining cash.Cash was the best solution, too, as they didn't want to leave a trail, so a wire transfer was a no-go.Still, it was not hard for the Ackers to prepare 200 grand USD out of the blue, but the difficult part was yet to come.Not only did they have to send a team bringing tons of food and daily necessities to the food processing plant with some daily necessities, but they also needed a factory-wide security upgrade for the food processing plant to ensure nothing went amiss.Just to be sure, Charlie told Porter Waldron to send his best men, entering Morocco from Algeria, and await his orders at Duca Mines. With their mobility, they could put on a decent disguise and still only need a few hours to travel from Lebanon to Algeria, so they would reach Duca M
