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 6763

    Harrison had yet to return when Julien returned to the banquet hall.It was only when he took his seat that Harrison showed up, his half-pill tucked safely away, but his expression somehow miserable and delighted all at once.Julien's eyes remained fixed on his old man's face to see if he had rejuvenated after his private audience with Helena.If yes, that proved that Charlie's pill was part of a trade with the queen.As such, it was quite strange that he couldn't see any difference on his father's face from before, and he was left musing to himself—the old geezer had worked blood and sweat on this project, but it still somehow hadn't gotten him half a pill from Charlie?And if Charlie had met him in private yet also hadn't given Harrison the pill, didn't that mean Charlie was placing his bets on him?Just the thought alone thrilled Julien, still blissfully unaware that his father had his half-pill tucked safely in his pocket.Harrison definitely couldn't wait to take the pill,

    Helena smiled. "Well, that depends entirely on what you do. If you do well, forget half a pill—you might even be allowed to buy one whole pill, or even two!"Harrison naturally didn't know that Helena was gaslighting him, and he held her words as a solemn vow.He was definitely delighted as he knew there were only that many pills, and one less pill for someone else was one more pill for him.It would only be hopeless if he couldn't get one when he was on the verge of dying.But if Charlie was willing to sell him one or a couple, he could live well beyond a hundred!-Meanwhile, Julien was left gaping at Charlie, who had just asked him to purchase Horizon, the biggest American photo reconnaissance satellite company.While Julien wasn't sure why Charlie would want Horizon, he had a hunch that it was important."So, I'll hand over the company after a buyout?" He asked.Charlie shook his head. "No. Just oust as many shareholders as you can after taking a controlling stake, after w

    Just watching Helena ready to take the half-pill left Harrison utterly uncomfortable and blurting out, "Your Majesty… Wait!"However, Helena only waited until the half-pill melted into a stream of warmth gushing down her stomach, feeling the revitalizing medicine when she finally turned to Harrison, "Yes, Mr. Rothschild? Why the sudden outburst?"Harrison was left clenching his knuckles, seeing that she had already taken the entire pill. "Your Majesty… How could you just take the pill…"Helena appeared mystified. "What's the issue? You only bought half of it. Am I breaking some sort of rule here?"Realizing he was being rude, Harrison quickly said, "M-My apologies, Your Majesty… That's not what I meant… I mean, you're still young, healthy, and full of vigor… It's such a waste…"Pausing as he realized 'waste' was once again seemingly rude, he quickly corrected himself, "Wait, no… I just meant to say… I could have bought that half-pill too. I would have paid fifty billion or even mo

    The pill was no more than a few grams, and it was even lighter after it was cut in half. If anything, Helena's cutting was so close to the middle that it made it even harder to measure, so trying to decide if one was lighter needed precision scales.Harrison weighed both halves in his palm for a long while, but he couldn't feel any difference.His gut swelling with regret, he sighed audibly, "If I knew this would happen, I would have just brought a pocket weighing scale…"Helena smiled. "There's really no reason to get so fussy, Mr. Rothschild. Both halves are pretty much the same."Harrison nodded but said, "I agree, but if this pill is 10 grams, that means each gram is worth 5 billion dollars. It's probably the most expensive object known to exist, so even if it's 0.1 gram, that's still 500 million…""That's true," Helena smiled and nodded. "But as much as it's wise to be calculative, there are times when one just has to take a leap of faith. In fact, a mentor I adore just told

    Harrison hesitated for a moment. However, as Helena was basically saying what he was thinking, he decided to dispense with idle conversation and nodded respectfully, "I'd never lie to you, Your Majesty. I'm old, but I still came all the way here to oversee the AI module handover because I really want that miraculous pill."Pausing to catch his breath, he then continued, "And now, the handover is complete. Rest assured, the module is equipped with the best and newest chips NVIDIA has to offer. Just the other day, the video processing should be enough to prove that it's a far cry from the other AI software available to the general public these days."Even if they can make their stuff look real, the flaws and inconsistencies are as clear as movie CGI these days. On the contrary, our AI module's processed video looks absolutely real, and as long as you don't ask for anything absurd, not even experts could tell a thing."Helena nodded quietly, as Harrison was right—those online AI soft

    It was only then that Charlie made a serious face and told Helena, "You need to be sharp instead of hesitating at every turn. Just do as I say without hesitation."Helena's heart skipped a beat as she was reminded of the time Charlie had lost consciousness while she lay naked beside him.It was because she wasn't determined at that moment that nothing ever happened in the end.Regret swelled in her mind, leaving her with a mix of emotions as she sighed inwardly, and she thought to herself that if she had been more determined, as Charlie had said…Still, she was looking downward at the pill she was holding before she knew it. When she looked up again, her expression and tone were determined. "Don't worry, Mr. Wade. I'll never hesitate again and be determined to see things through to the end."Charlie had no idea what she was actually thinking, and he nodded with a contented smile. "You are a queen who stands above millions. Being determined is a necessary virtue, and you need to
