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 7205

    Basically, Curtis had chosen to wage an open war against the Rothschilds because he didn't want his family to suffer, while also anticipating that they would disown him after making enemies against such a terrible entity.It's like person A knowing one's lover would cheat, but willingly allowing them the chance to do it and leave person A so that the lover wouldn't have to stay out of obligation.Even in death, Curtis still cared for his own family—for his father, who didn't care what happened to him, and for his siblings who just wanted him gone.Yule, aware of what had happened back then, had a fair idea of what was on Charlie's mind, too.Sighing, he said earnestly, "Charlie, there are lives that are meant to be lived for oneself. It was your father's duty to take care of his family and your mother's. In that sense, I think he more than succeeded."Charlie nodded quietly in agreement.He had met many other children at the orphanage, some of whom were born ill.Even though the

    Even now, Charlie didn't think too highly of Carmen.As a child, all he remembered was how Carmen had constantly hounded his parents before they had left town.And when he met Carmen again years later, she had just had a huge fight with Elaine.Things had only gotten worse since, and Charlie had even planned to keep her in Cliffcouls for at least a couple of years and see what happens.That was why he wasn't concerned with Jeremiah's words.Seeing his indifference, Jeremiah knew he was still unhappy with Carmen.Hence, before she returned, he said seriously, "There are many things where you only see one side, Charlie. Your aunt used to be close with both your mother and father… but the entire family turned against your parents, and I myself didn't try to defend them either. To be honest, she abused your parents out of self-preservation."Pausing, he sighed. "It was a time of crisis where everyone was just trying to survive—just like on Mount Wintry. That's why they weren't stand

    And when Curtis had gotten married, Ashley had treated Carmen like a sister.She was proud, but she was a good girl around Ashley and Curtis, never once being rude or overstepping.She worshiped both of them, but was also codependent on them. As the couple were both prodigies in their own right, she was convinced that they would take good care of her for her whole life… only for them to die young.The Wade family fell and never rose again ever since, and Jeremiah had been too busy mourning to worry about her. And as she had always been distant from Clayton, she was left marginalized by her own family.Even Carmen's husband, who had scored some degree of success thanks to Curtis' help, found opportunities denied after Curtis death. After years of mediocrity, even Carmen lost patience with him.And yet, at this moment, Carmen suddenly realized that her existence was even more tragic.Her brothers remained distant, considering her insignificant. Her father still cared, but he was

    Meanwhile, Carmen, who was always talkative and readily expressed her opinions, was silent as she poured tea for everyone.Her eyes were darting toward Rachel frequently, the envy in her heart growing the more she peeked.Just seeing Rachel's appearance, style, and the healthy complexion on those cheeks of hers left Carmen feeling ugly, unable to look up at all.As she brewed tea, she noticed that her own hands were getting dry and wrinkled from age.Naturally, she was always consistently taking good care of her own skin, but skin and complexion simply weren't resistant to the passage of time. Even with all the moisturizers and other beauty products, Carmen's skin quality was aging significantly.As such, she felt all the more inferior as she watched Rachel raise her teacup with a pair of hands that were fair and blemish-free like a teenager's. On the other hand, Rachel was curious about Carmen.She had always been labeled as strong-willed and self-centered, and she was known t

    Most importantly, when Ten Thousand Armies had stormed Mount Wintry, the Goldings knew the Wades were helpless, but they still stood firm by their side regardless.That loyalty was worth more than its weight in gold.However, Jeremiah still understood that he couldn't make the decisions for Charlie, or he would have made his grandson marry Quinn already.As for the Goldings, they felt a little embarrassed to keep harping about marriage when they had just received Charlie's Rejuvenation Pill.That afforded Charlie much breathing space in turn, and a lot less stress.Meanwhile, Carmen was preparing the tea set and brewing a premium tea called Beautiful Golden Eyebrows for everyone, while everyone chatted and somehow avoided the topic of marriage.After all, Jeremiah cared about the fight against the Qing Eliminating Society as much as Charlie's marriage.When he asked, Charlie gave him a quick rundown and soon remembered about Stephen Thompson. "Do you have any news on Stephen?"

    Jeremiah and Carmen never felt cold despite the pelting winds, only the misery of being ostracized.They were certainly a far cry compared to Yule and Rachel's radiant faces, but they would never hold any grief against Charlie.After all, it was all their own damned fault.Inviting everyone inside, Jeremiah quickly told Carmen, "Go, make some tea for our guests. I'd like to have a little teatime with Yule and Charlie."Having lost her heiress schtick, Carmen nodded, smiling humbly and respectfully—just like a professional waitress. "Just wait for a while. I'll get it right away."Even as she got to work, she was afraid to ask for the Rejuvenation Pill, while yearning for it at the same time.The idea was that if she properly humbled herself to Charlie and his impression of her improved, wouldn't he find some goodness in his heart to give her half?On the other hand, Rachel raised a brow.Carmen was Charlie's aunt, after all, and such menial work simply seemed inappropriate.Tu

    If she had called Charlie before regaining her freedom, there was an 80% probability that she was calling him because she wanted him to let her go.However, now that she was calling him to admit her own mistakes after she had already regained her freedom, this was even more strange and unimaginable.P

    At this moment, he finally realized that he had caused big trouble!     Hence, looking toward Doris, Edmund cried and begged, “Doris! I beg you to send me to the police!

    Half an hour later, a Boeing 747 that had been revamped into a private jet took off from Eastcliff Airport.This aircraft was of the same model as the US Presidential Air Force One, with a typical three-level cockpit layout. The aircraft could fit up to four hundred and sixty-seven passengers when it
