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 7003

    That was when the Toyota minibus and its entourage returned to Tokyo Dome, and the security personnel at the gates stood in a row, bowing respectfully as the convoy pulled up inside the building.Yoshitaka was trembling even as he watched the so-called CIA convoy return, as traumatized as he was furious.Talk about stepping on his toes, and right in the middle of his turf! To attempt an abduction right in his face?! It wasn't just an insult—it was ignominy!Nonetheless, the minibus soon stopped steadily in front of Yoshitaka and Kathleen, and the door soon opened.Charlie stood inside, beckoning to Tanya and Trevor. "You two. Go."The couple promptly leaped off the minibus without delay, their faces still pale from fear.On their necks was that little hole where the syringes had left a slight bruising after it had been forcibly removed—a gruesome sight.Kokomi exclaimed urgently, "Are you alright, Tanya?!"Seeing her, Tanya ran up and wrapped her arms around Kokomi as she sobbed, "You

    Yoshitaka was no fool—he had simply misjudged an earlier decision but stuck with it, and hence, the mistake had snowballed from there.That was also precisely why he wasn't concerned when his daughter had voiced her suspicions, even arguing as if in a knee-jerk reflex.But now, with Kathleen explaining the whole situation, he truly came to his senses and realized how big a blunder he had just made!Her description of what would have been alone left Yoshitaka sweating buckets, as Kathleeen wasn't exaggerating at all. Mitsui Group's reputation would be utterly destroyed if Tanya were truly killed, and he would most probably be forced to resign to appease the outraged citizens.While there was always a sense of hypocrisy in any nation's sense of justice, it was built upon one common denominator: keeping everything under the rug. But should what was beneath the rug be exposed to the public, whoever was found responsible would be reduced to a pariah, abandoned and condemned by everyone els

    Meanwhile, Yoshitaka still wasn't aware of how serious things were, but his daughter, Kokomi, had noticed how odd the situation was."Why would the CIA take Tanya away?" She asked. "There's just something strange about this."Yoshitaka simply smiled. "Oh, Kokomi—you just don't know much about politics, do you? Tanya may be a superstar, but she involved herself in things she shouldn't have been involved in and even bet on the wrong horse. Winner takes all, but she's on the losing side, so her punishment was only a matter of time."On top of that, the winner made it clear he wasn't at all pleased with her behavior until now and publicly announced that there would be a probe when he wins. Everyone knows how petty he can get, so it's not that surprising for an official investigation into Tanya. Who knows how much evidence yet unknown to the public he has by now, and once they are revealed, Tanya's career is definitely over."Kokomi pursed her lips in hesitation but still said, "If that's t

    With that, Peter turned toward the driver. "Turn. Don't wait for them."The driver nodded, quickly slowed down, and took a U-turn at the next junction back to Tokyo Dome.That was when Tanya and Trevor, holding hands but still clearly in shock, moved toward them. Tanya especially had lost her previous pride, watching Charlie with a troubled look as she stammered, "M-Mr. Wade… I'd like to call my family through the embassy. We need asylum after something this bad happened…""No," Charlie replied, impassive. "Going back is just fine.""Why not?" Tanya couldn't help asking. "These people are killers—shouldn't we at least tell the cops about something so serious?!""Nope," Charlie's response remained icy. "Starting now, I call the shots around here. You have no right to make any without my permission.""But—"Before Tanya could keep arguing, Charlie snapped, "No buts. If you refuse, I'm getting off this instant and won't intervene with whatever they do to you. It doesn't matter to me if y

    If Tanya was just here for a concert, and had ended up killed or MIA before said concert, it was the Japanese Police that would be embarrassed in the eyes of the world.However, if Tanya went missing from Mitsui's party, it would be the Mitsui Group that would be scapegoated.Considering Tanya's global stardom, if Charlie hadn't intervened and Peter's group had succeeded, the world would have laughed at Mitsui Group, while Tanya's legions of fans would hold them responsible. Whether it was reputation or business, the losses would be inestimable.Charlie was convinced that Yoshitaka would understand that he owed Charlie a huge favor. While he wasn't sure Yoshitaka would become a loyal follower, he would at least do everything Charlie demanded. Peter was no fool, as he knew what Charlie was telling him to do.But after some thought, he decided that the logic worked anyway. If he returned, his bosses would kill him for failing the mission.If he didn't cooperate with Charlie, Charlie hi

    Peter trained his gun on Charlie right then, intent on killing him with just one shot.Seeing that, Trevor shouted out loud, "Mr. Wade! Watch out!"Charlie simply smiled as he walked up and pulled the syringe out of Trevor's neck, launching it toward Peter at a speed too quick for the naked eye to keep up with.Peter was just about to pull the trigger and blow Charlie's brains out when he felt the sharp pain in his wrist, and his palm opened, dropping the gun.When he looked at his hand again, he flinched in horror as the syringe they had planned to use to kill Trevor and Tanya with was sticking out of it!As for Charlie, he pulled out the syringe from Tanya's neck as well and rushed toward the front end of the minibus.Seeing Charlie coming, Peter promptly reached down for the gun, but he didn't have time to see where he had dropped it by the time Charlie had reached him.Grabbing Peter's right hand, Charlie didn't hesitate to thrust the other syringe into the driver's neck while hold
