The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 112
After a while, Charlie felt a burst of energy surging through his body as if stimulating all of his senses, bones, and blood.It was Reiki!When he looked at the stone again, Charlie found that the stone seemed to be absorbing all the spiritual energy that it didn’t look any different from a normal lifeless stone.He tried to perform the cultivation method recorded in the “Apocalyptic Book” but he couldn’t extract the Reiki from the stone anymore.Dejected, he put the stone back in his pocket. Intuitively, he felt that the stone was extraordinary, but he had no way to examine it now. It seemed that he had to sharpen his skills first before he could work on the stone again.He hurried to take a bath as he was sticky from the profuse sweating. It was already over 5 pm when he finished the bath, and that’s when Claire called him.On the phone, Claire told Charlie that she was in the middle of the meeting with the Emgrand Group about the project details and that she didn’t drive toda

Charlie heard the rustling footsteps coming from behind him. He stealthily looked at the glass window with the corner of his eyes and discovered that Loreen was following behind him!Oh, shoot!If Loreen saw him here, she would have thought that he was the chairman of the Emgrand Group!Worse, she might even connect the dots and know that he was the young master of the Wade family!It was indeed very bad!As Loreen was about to catch up with him, he walked faster, entered the chairman’s office, and quickly locked the door behind him.Never did Loreen expect that the man would suddenly speed up. When she wanted to pursue him, he was already in the office.Loreen sighed in disappointment and muttered under her breath, “That’s weird, why do I feel like the chairman is running away from me on purpose…”She refused to give up on such a golden opportunity just yet. She took a deep breath, went to knock on the door, and said, “Hello, Mr. Chairman, I’m Loreen Thomas, the new administra

Loreen immediately went to Doris’s office when she received the call. Charlie grabbed the chance and quickly went downstairs.He saw Claire walking out, looking worn out and weary, as soon as he reached his car.She was exhausted from the heavy workload of the hotel project. She said helplessly, “I have too much work on my hands, 24 hours are not enough.”Charlie said heavy-heartedly, “How about dividing some of the works to other people? Or maybe just don’t do it.”“No way,” Claire said, “I was appointed as the director only recently, I need to work hard to strengthen and solidify my foundation at the company, otherwise, my cousin will swoop in whenever he sees a chance.”Claire was extremely annoyed when Harold’s disgusting look appeared in her mind. The bothersome man kept going against her and always did things detrimental and inimical.On the way home, Claire closed her eyes to rest while Charlie focused on driving without disturbing her.***Meanwhile, in Doris’s office.

Loreen didn’t want to pick up the call as she stared at Harold’s name on her phone. She didn’t have a good impression of Harold, and she could see right through his superficial motive of approaching her. He simply wanted to get close to her and tackle her heart.She was very annoyed by this person’s existence and immediately hung up the phone.However, Harold couldn’t take no for an answer. He attempted several times until Loreen reluctantly picked up the call and asked coldly, “What’s up, Harold?”Harold, on the other end of the line, hurriedly said, “Loreen, I heard that you are appointed as the sales director, is it true?”Loreen was surprised. “How do you get the news so fast?”Harold chuckled. “I have some friends who work in Emgrand Group, they told me that they received the official announcement about the appointment, so I called to congratulate you.”“Oh,” Loreen said, “Yes, I’m appointed as the sales director.”“Congratulations!” Harold shrieked in delight. “It is a p

Actually, Loreen could tell what was playing in Harold’s mind, and she wanted to protect herself from any unwanted scenarios, hence, she made up her mind not to drink with him tonight.Harold was bummed out after his request to drink was rejected, but he didn’t dare to express himself, so he said instead, “It’s okay, let’s just drink juice then.”Loreen nodded. “Thanks for being so considerate!”Meanwhile, a seemingly gracious young man sitting at the table next to them was staring at Loreen. He was attracted by her elegant temperament and aura after he saw her walking into the restaurant.‘The lady is so beautiful and extraordinary, she looks like a fairy descending to earth!’ thought the young man when he first laid eyes on Loreen.After observing their interaction for a while, he realized that the lady and the man were not a couple, so he decided to grab his chance to get to know the beautiful lady.He mustered enough courage before he stood up, walked towards their table, and

The young man felt light-headed and dizzy from the smash and almost collapsed to the floor.The diners around them were also shocked by the sudden commotion.Harold glared viciously at the young man whose head was drenched by his own blood and sneered, “Get lost, or I’ll break your leg!”The young man held the wound on his head and growled, “Alright, tough guy, wait and see!”Then, he ran out of the restaurant.Harold grinned disdainfully and said, “F*cking loser, who does he think he is to threaten me? I am Harold Wilson, f*cker!”Then, he put on a smug look as he said to Loreen, “There’s always these annoying bugs everywhere you go, don’t let him ruin our night. Come, let’s enjoy our dinner.”Loreen’s celebratory mood was totally destroyed after the disturbing moment. She simply nodded without a word.Throughout the dinner, Harold tried to lighten up the mood by striking conversations, but Loreen wasn’t entertained at all.In her opinion, Harold was nothing but an incapable

As Harold watched the steel pipe was aiming at him, he was so frightened and panicked that he almost wet himself.Suddenly, he grabbed Loreen’s hand and pushed her out towards the men then he ran towards his car, opened the door quickly, got in, and drove away without a second look at his back.Loreen screamed hastily as she was pushed towards the ferocious men, and she blew up when she looked at Harold running away like a scaredy-cat.Damn it! Harold Wilson was such a wuss and coward!After causing a scene, he had the nerve to push a lady forward as his shield in such a critical moment and escape by himself!He was the most disgusting scum in the world!The young man cursed out loud as Harold escaped.“Damn it, that f*cker! Left the lady here and ran! What a loser!”Then, he turned to Loreen and snarled coldly, “Beauty, call that bastard back, otherwise, you’re next!”Loreen blurted in a panic, “He and I, we’re just acquaintances, please don’t involve me in your affairs.”Th

Sharp and agonizing pain in her leg sent shocking waves throughout Loreen’s body. She was extremely desperate and in despair, tears kept streaming down her cheeks.The young man grinned slyly as he looked at her tearful yet beautiful face. He cleared his throat and shouted, “Get her in the car!”Someone’s voice echoed from the side, “Mr. Westbrook, when will you let us get a taste of the sweet lady?”The young man said coldly, “When I’m done with her, you can do whatever you like!”Then, he extended his arm and wanted to grab her into the car when there was an abrupt scream coming from behind the men!“Argh!”Suddenly, loud and painful screams violently resonated.The young man turned around angrily and shouted, “What’s wrong?”But when he lifted his head, he felt a sudden strong wind coming his way! Before he could dodge, he felt a sharp pain in his face, blood sprayed right in front of his eyes, his nose bridge snapped with a loud ‘crack’, and blood oozed out from his nose in

Jacob wasn't really concerned with the invitation. He wouldn't be going anyway, and he wouldn't tell Elaine about it.Right now, he had a question.After hanging up on Walker, he asked curiously, "A designated driver would be just a few dozen bucks at most. Why get Walker?"Mr. Bay sighed meaningfully. "Jacob, my boy—it's not just my job description you must handle when you succeed me. You must understand the unspoken rules of the workplace as well as interpersonal relationships."Raising his right index finger, he chuckled, "Earning the loyalty of subordinates is a science. But it has to be a carrot and stick—never just the carrot, while offering them chances to be of service.""Take Walker, for example. As his boss, buying him lunch is 5 points. Ask for a favor, but it's 50 points instead!""As a leader, you should also make sure to give requests that are reasonable. That way, they will consider you to be their ally, or soon enough.""People are strange that way—psychology sim

Jacob certainly agreed with Mr. Bay. When going to a dinner where alcohol would be involved, having a designated driver would be most convenient.Still, Jacob had another plan in mind.Since he had a Cullinan and this was the perfect chance to show off, it would kill him not to drive."Actually, we should go on our own," Jacob told Mr. Bay right then. "We will take my car and get a designated driver to take us home. We can hang out in the backseat to chat—I mean, you'd be in a bad mood if you get a bad driver, bringing a car that stinks of tobacco. You know how bad it can get."Mr. Bay nodded cheerfully. "Alright! I'm counting on you!""Oh, it's only right!"Coming to an agreement, they hurried outside, with Jacob driving and Mr. Bay riding shotgun.They were having a pleasant conversation when Jacob suddenly got a call from Walker, who was his sub at Senior University.Answering with the in-car Bluetooth system, he said, "Hey, Walker. What's up?""Mr. Wilson! I'm done with cl

As such, Albert did not hesitate to say right then, "Don't worry, Mr. Wilson—since they are your friends, I will offer the half-price rebate as you've suggested! When the guests take their seats, I'll personally deliver a couple of nice bottles over as a token of my sincerity!"Oskia truly sets the bar when it comes to being humanistic.There were times when one must show due respect, but not too much either in case it changed the status quo.It was just like a couple eating out with a third-wheel.Even if the third-wheel was better off and happily took the check as the girl watched, there would inevitably be competitiveness. The generosity might even lead to the girl getting attracted to the third-wheel.As such, since Jacob was actually secondary in importance at the event, Albert would have to make sure not to rain on the host's parade while showing his respects to Jacob. Otherwise, the host may hold a grudge against Jacob even if everything was free of charge.And when it cam

Jacob put a hand on his chest. "Don't worry—everything is going to be fine when my son-in-law takes the stage."As soon as he finished speaking, an unknown number called his phone.He answered, hearing a familiar voice he couldn't quite place, "Good afternoon. Am I speaking to Mr. Jacob Wilson?""Yes. May I ask who I am speaking to?""Albert Rhodes, owner of Heaven Springs at your service. Would you happen to remember me?"Hearing that, Jacob turned on the speaker excitedly as he continued, "Oh, yes, Don Albert! Of course I remember!"Mr. Bay's eyes lit up when he heard Albert announce himself, and he mouthed, "Is that really Don Albert?!"Jacob nodded repeatedly, his vanity burgeoning.Mr. Bay was naturally thrilled too, and he leaned closer to listen just as Albert spoke humbly, "If it's alright with you, Mr. Wilson, please don't address me as Don Albert. It's just a title some brats came up with—you are Master Wade's father-in-law, which means you have seniority over me. So,

Mr. Bay was overjoyed, seeing how quickly Jacob agreed to it. "Thanks, Jacob! I owe you!" He exclaimed, but soon added, "It's past four now, and that bunch like to fraternize in the room before they eat. Could you get the room soon? I think they'll be arriving soon."Then, he moved closer to add quietly, "If you can get a Diamond Room like before, I will bring you along. I'm not going to lie, these are officials with decision-making authority. Being friends with them might propel us to new heights!"Jacob already knew that Mr. Bay was sucking up to his friend, otherwise, he wouldn't be so concerned when the dinner was organized by said friend. Understanding that the friend must be important too, Jacob was at once buoyed.After all, he had presumed that becoming vice president was the most he could achieve.Now, if he could attend that dinner with Mr. Bay and establish a good relationship with those bigwigs, he would have his turn when Mr. Bay got promoted too.With that in min

Reservations in Heaven Springs had always been unpredictable, and most rooms weren't open to the general public—even if said rooms were vacant for the night.It was not as if Albert Rhodes didn't want to make money when he built Heaven Springs. He simply didn't do it solely for profit, but only mostly for social events and posturing.Back when he was a humbler member of society, he realized that many bigwigs and even his fellows cared for pride a lot. Be it food, liquor, or even simply everyday consumption, they always strove for the best and the most expensive.That was why polite society valued their privacy and established their respective social circles, which was why Heaven Springs ensured that everything was first-rate: atmosphere, service, food, and clientele.Just like how bigwigs wouldn't dine at the same table as their goons, said goons wouldn't eat at the fancy places those bigwigs frequented even if they had money, as it may appear as if they were overstepping.That wa

As such, intent on keeping up his pretense, Jacob answered the phone, "Looking for me, Matilda?""Uh-huh," Matilda replied, and asked, "You didn't show up at Senior University, and your sub is saying you probably won't be coming for a while? Is that true?""Oh—right, that," Jacob quickly said. "Well, it's true—the gist of it is that the Association is getting busy with a project. As the vice president, I probably shouldn't be staying at Senior University all the time, right?""Heck, Mr. Bay called me last minute, telling me how busy we're going to be and that I was needed. That's why I had to go back, but I will head over to campus again when I have the time."Matilda knew right then that those were all excuses.However, she did not expose Jacob, instead asking, "Well, when are you free? So that I can send you my wedding invitation?""Oh, the invitation?" Jacob quickly chuckled. "You really didn't have to come to me—just pass it to Walker, my sub lecturer. He can pass it to me wh

The next afternoon, there was a sudden change of lecturers for the calligraphy class.Despite being the vice president of the Calligraphy and Painting Association, Jacob never showed up, instead getting a substitute instructor to replace him.Matilda had come with the invitation Yolden had written for Jacob, but seeing that Jacob wasn't at the lecture hall, she waited until the class was over to ask the sub, "Excuse me, can I ask why Mr. Wilson wasn't teaching this class?""He's busy at the association," the sub replied. "So, I'm taking over his class."Curious, Matilda pressed, "Then, would you happen to know when he will be coming?""Probably not for a while," the sub replied. "He delegated other classes to me as well, telling me that I could just stick to the PowerPoint slides."Then, he asked, "Do you have business with Mr. Wilson?"Matilda nodded. "Yes, but I can call him myself. Thank you."Leaving the lecture hall, Matilda called Jacob, who was goofing off in his office

On the other end, Matilda was left staring at Jacob's reply in confusion.She had presumed that Jacob would understand when she mentioned inviting his whole family that he should be coming up with an excuse to skip attending her wedding.That was the most ideal solution.As such, she was shocked that instead of playing along, Jacob's reply was short and blunt.[No problem. The four of us will be there!]Perplexed, Matilda was left wondering what Jacob meant. Was he really going to attend her wedding with Elaine?The thought left Matilda frowning as she absolutely didn't want to see Elaine—especially not at her own wedding.Yolden was writing an invitation when he saw the somber look on her face, and he couldn't help asking, "Is there a problem?""Jacob replied," Matilda admitted. "And he's saying that he will bring his whole family.""Really?" Yolden was confused too, as he was hardly as eccentric as Jacob. "But he's afraid of his wife and shouldn't be telling her at all…
