The Amazing Son In Law Chapter 16
Sabrina wrapped her arms around herself and spoke with a haughty tone, “I have nothing but disdain for you. What’s wrong with that? Am I not allowed to say it?”
“Who among my classmates doesn’t know that you became a live-in son-in-law after you graduated? When we were in school, you barely had enough to eat, and now you’re living off others after graduation. You’re such a failure and still have the nerve to ask me for help? Who do you think you are?”
Charlie felt a surge of anger welling up inside him.
He believed in a principle of live and let live, but Sabrina had definitely crossed the line this time!
Just then, he received a text message from Stephen Thompson. It read, “Master, Shangri-La is part of our Wade Group. The Shangri-La here in Aurous Hill is just one of our many properties.”
Charlie’s eyes widened in shock!
The Shangri-La belongs to the Wade family?
He instinctively replied, “You can’t be serious, can you?”
Stephen Thompson continued, “The person in charge of the Aurous Hill Shangri-La is named Isaac Cameron. His phone number is 155…… You should call him, he will handle everything.”
“Understood.”
Noticing Charlie’s focused attention on his phone, Sabrina grew increasingly irritated.
She felt as if she were toying with a small dog, wanting to hear it yelp in response.
But to her surprise, Charlie remained silent.
It seemed that the class monitor, who once struck her as a loser in college, was still the same person now, indifferent to her taunts.
Frustrated, she increased her mockery, sneering, “Oh, class monitor, you are certainly a master of patience!”
“By the way, I heard you’ve been married to Claire, the beauty of our school, for three years, but you still haven’t been able to sleep with her. Is she someone else’s mistress? Are you just a cover for her while she fools around with others? Hahaha!”
Charlie frowned in response.
It was one thing to insult him, but now she was insulting his wife?
Sabrina, you’re asking for trouble!
He then called Isaac Cameron, the manager of Shangri-La, casting a glance at Sabrina as he said coolly, “I want to know how Shangri-La finds its employees. It seems people like you, full of nonsense, can still get hired!”
“How dare you speak to me like that? Are you asking for trouble?” Sabrina shouted in fury, turning to the nearby security guard. “He’s causing a disturbance! Get him out of here!”
Meanwhile, Charlie had already dialed the number.
“Hello, who’s this?” came a commanding voice from the other end of the line.
Charlie replied coldly, “Is this Isaac Cameron? My name is Charlie Wade. I’m standing at the entrance of Shangri-La, and I want you to come down in one minute. If you don’t, you can say goodbye to your job here.”
The commanding voice on the phone suddenly shifted to panic. “Y-Young Master? Are you really at the entrance of Shangri-La?”
“You have fifty seconds!” Charlie retorted.
The man on the other end seemed to panic even more, exclaiming, “Wait, I’ll be there right away!”
Sabrina found Charlie’s phone call amusing and said sarcastically, “Charlie, I didn’t know you were such an expert at boasting! Do you even realize who Mr. Cameron is? Even the two top executives at Shangri-La wouldn’t dare to act tough in front of him. Do you really think you can intimidate me with your little phone game?”
Charlie responded calmly, “Whether I’m bluffing or not, you’ll find out in thirty seconds.”
Sabrina laughed derisively, “Fine, class monitor Wade, I’ll wait alongside you for thirty seconds! Actually, let’s make it three minutes! If our Manager Cameron doesn’t come out in three minutes, I’ll instruct security to shut you up! Let’s see how much you can brag after that! Hahaha! You really crack me up!”
Twenty seconds passed.
A middle-aged man in a finely tailored suit rushed out in a flurry.
He was an important figure in the Wade family, highly respected since managing the Shangri-La in Aurous Hill. He had never faced such a state of panic before.
But this was no ordinary moment, he never expected to be met by the Young Master in a place he managed.
Just as Sabrina was about to continue her mockery of Charlie, she noticed the security guards behind her gawking in horror.
Turning around instinctively, she was struck speechless as she saw Mr. Cameron sprinting out.
She gazed back at Charlie in disbelief, “This… How is this even possible…”
“Who is Mr. Wade?!” Isaac Cameron’s voice trembled.
Those around the Wade family stood in shock. Mr. Cameron, who could shake the very foundation of Aurous Hill, was clearly rattled!
At that moment, Charlie declared, “I am!”
Isaac Cameron rushed to him, bowing deeply, “Young…”
Before he could complete his thought, Charlie quickly interrupted, “Mr. Cameron, let’s keep some of this between us.”
Upon hearing this, Isaac Cameron became even more anxious, trembling in fear.
Goodness, how could I be so foolish! The Young Master’s identity must be confidential, and I almost revealed it. If he holds this against me, I am finished!
In a rush, he adjusted his tone and said respectfully, “Mr. Wade, welcome to Shangri-La. Please, let’s go to my office to discuss further.”
Sabrina stood frozen, unable to comprehend the reality unfolding before her eyes.
Who exactly is this Charlie? How could he command such respect from the manager of Shangri-La?
I’ve ridiculed him so much—surely, he wouldn’t hold a grudge, right?
