The Charismatic Charlie Wade Chapter 115
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

Charlie glanced at Loreen silently and thought, ‘You’ve always looked down on me, what’s the point of revealing myself? It will only give more trouble to both of us.’So, he decided best to keep it a secret.Likewise, he rescued her for the sake of his dear wife Claire, it’s not that he had a special treatment for her anyway.Seeing that the man didn’t say a word, Loreen understood that he didn’t want to reveal his identity, so she stopped her curious question.However, she was a woman with a masculine personality that refused to cling to men in any circumstances. She felt awkward and uncomfortable for not being able to express her gratitude after his help.When she wanted to ask again, a hoarse and cold voice echoed in her ears.“Take off your pants.”Loreen looked up in bewilderment. She suddenly felt ashamed and agitated when she saw the masked man was eyeing her from head to toe.She thought that she had escaped the tiger’s lair, but she fell right into the wolf den!Glanc

Clutching her leg, Loreen knew the man wasn’t bluffing as she saw blood leaking in between her fingers. But her mind was struggling when she thought about taking off her pants in front of a strange man.In the face of life and death, Loreen hesitated for a while and finally compromised to reality.She didn’t want to die, let alone became disabled.Loreen looked up at the masked man, her face was turning into an embarrassing shade of red, her heart was pounding violently, her whole body wiggled awkwardly.Finally, she said faintly, “Okay, thank you.”Charlie nodded at her compliance. He squatted down, grabbed her pants with both hands, and tore it forcefully.Loreen lowered her head and looked the other way, she sucked in a deep breath, her face was hot to touch, her heart almost escaped the ribcage due to the violent thumping.Charlie was as calm as the lake. Seeing that the stab wound was on her left leg, he put his index and middle fingers together, aimed at the acupoints, and

Who did this pebble belong to? Did it belong to the masked man? Did he drop the pebble by accident?Loreen clutched the pebble tightly as if she was holding a precious diamond.If she never saw him again, this stone would be the only thing he had left her.The ambulance took Loreen to the hospital. After a series of diagnosis, the doctor was genuinely surprised to find that her injuries were not serious, without knowing Charlie had attended to her wound previously.Judging from the stab wound on her leg, it would either rupture her hamstring or worse, damage her muscles and blood veins.However, other than the superficial wound, the veins and tendons inside were intact as if they were reconnected and much firmer than before.The doctor said, “Your wound will heal after a few days of rest. By the way, this is very incredible. Did you do something to the wound?”Loreen was thinking about the mysterious masked man, but she said, “No, I didn’t do anything.”The doctor exclaimed, “I

Pausing, Charlie then said, "I'll call Steve to drop by later too. I'm sure folks in Aurous Hill won't know him, but your potential troublemaker might.""I-Is that really fine?" Yolden blurted."What's not fine about it?" Charlie chuckled. "He has been treated like a tool ever since he came to Aurous Hill, and now that he has a chance to strut about, he wouldn't ask for more."Yolden appeared slightly relieved at that, and Charlie asked, "By the way, where's Paul, Matilda, and Autumn?""Getting their makeup done," Yolden replied. "Paul's my best man while Autumn's the maid of honor.""Good," Charlie nodded with a grin. "Don't worry—the wedding's going to be a success."As they spoke, Matilda stepped out of the dressing room in a stark-white wedding dress, flanked by Autumn and Paul.Seeing Charlie, Autumn nodded politely, "Good morning, Mr. Wade."As Charlie nodded in turn, Paul started, "G-Good morning… Mr. Wade…"Seeing that he was nervous and tentative, Charlie knew that he

As Yolden and Matilda were remarrying after living abroad for years, the wedding ceremony was much simpler, skipping Oskian customs and having a simple wedding reception for their guests at the hotel hall.There weren't that many guests either—aside from their children and close friends, only a handful of Yolden's colleagues at Aurous Hill University were invited.As the celebrant, Charlie didn't have much to do and was mainly the emcee.He brought along his jacket as he headed out to Shangri-La, not wearing it immediately so that Claire wouldn't guess that he was attending Matilda's wedding.Arriving at the Hanging Gardens before the guests were supposed to arrive, he found Yolden working with the staff to finalize the preparations.Seeing Charlie, Yolden approached him and said, "Thanks for coming this early, Charlie."Noticing that he was a little tired, Charlie asked in concern, "Had a bad night?"Yolden nodded, sighing, "Paul's uncle caused a huge mess. Both Matilda and I a

Tarlon nodded. "How do you suggest we find them?"Fleur scowled. "There's no rush. There are things which I'm still confused about, so just keep a close eye on the Ackers and the Wades for the time being. Report to me right away if anything important comes up—don't afford our enemies any opportunities to exploit.""Yes, milady!" -The next day, more news outlets were covering the joint project between the Ackers and the Wades as word continued to spread.However, neither family revealed too many details, be it the name of the company, who was the CEO, or the scale of their business.While the public was dying with curiosity, nothing else was known.Still, Aurous Hill's officials were especially interested, with the town hall visiting the Ackers the next day and showing utmost sincerity by leasing a whopping 2-million-square-meter land along the southern highway. Still, the condition was for the Ackers to come true on their promise to propel the city's economy to 15 billion US d

Fleur had repeatedly mentioned the conspiracy theory of Ashley using a body double over the last twenty years.Tarlon had investigated from many different angles, but everything from the gender, age, dental records, to body figure pointed to the fact that the deceased was Ashley Acker.And yet, Fleur had never bought it, insisting that Curtis was prepared for them just because Curtis' son had gone missing soon after.There was no way Curtis would save his son but not his wife, and the disfigured corpse only added fuel to Fleur's suspicion.Thus, over the last twenty years, Fleur had kept a close eye on the Ackers, arranging for two 'scholars' to be embedded amongst their ranks as sleeper agents. She went that far all to determine if Ashley was dead or had faked her death.However, the scholars had since been killed in action, and they had no spies within the Ackers left.As for Tarlon, he still doubted Fleur's theory even now, but he remained respectful as he spoke, "Milady, I mu

Meanwhile, on the edge of the South Pole, Tarlon Griffin rushed outside of Fleur Griffin's room, knocking the door gingerly as he announced, "I have news, my lady!"Fleur didn't respond, but the thick wooden door between them slowly opened as if pushed by an invisible force.Tarlon entered to find Fleur seated on the floor with her legs crossed at the ankles. Her eyes remained closed as she molded her Reiki, asking, "What is it?"Tarlon quickly answered, "News from Oskia. The Ackers are partnering with the Wades on a joint venture into electric-powered vehicles."Fleur slowly opened her eyes, asking quietly, "And you're telling me because?"Tarlon quickly explained, "It just came out of the blue, so I thought I should report it to you right away."Fleur sighed. "After I tried and failed to wipe out the Ackers so many times, they wouldn't dare set foot stateside. If anything, they must have decided to seek asylum in Oskia by offering a substantial investment, and it's a base whe

Silent for a while, Matilda then asked Yolden, "Do you think I can do it?""Yes!" Yolden nodded without hesitation. "You definitely won't have any problems!"Matilda sighed, shaking her head. "We traveled far abroad to study while we were young, but we didn't return to Oskia to help the country's development. It's been thirty years since, and now that we have returned to the country at the same time, I definitely wouldn't turn down such an opportunity to help."Pausing, she then said, "That said, major corporations make it a point to not hire family members. Forget spouses—employees aren't allowed to date, and one of the two will be asked to resign if necessary."Don't you think it's inappropriate since we are legally married, having gotten our certificate and all? And if we set these precedents, we would have trouble asking other employees to follow that policy. You are going to be a CEO, so you need a very clear answer on this issue."Yolden shrugged. "In the first place, that p

Yolden nodded slightly. "He does.""My gosh…" Matilda murmured. "That's too much… Ashley's son? A member of the Acker family and the Wades?!"Pausing, she then asked in confusion, "Wait, if Charlie has so much power and influence, why would he permanently reside in Aurous Hill… No, why would he be content as Jacob Wilson's son-in-law? Does Jacob know who he really is?""Definitely not," Yolden shook his head. "There were some compelling circumstances, and his identity is a sensitive one. That's why I'm asking you to tell no one except Paul—and even then, you should only tell him if he can keep the secret."Matilda was sharp enough to pick up on the reasoning, too. "Charlie's hiding because of his parents' accident, isn't he?""Yes," Yolden sighed. "He has his plans, but I didn't pry since I can only do that much, let alone help him on that.""Got it," Matilda nodded repeatedly. "Don't worry. My lips are sealed… And you just said you're resigning? Are you going to help with this e

"That would be Ashley Layna Acker," Matilda replied without hesitation. "She was our age, as well as a major investor in Silicon Valley, while we were only starting to get our first clients. It's no exaggeration to say that she's the shining example in many case studies when it comes to business."Pausing, she then continued, "And she used to be your classmate, right? I remember you mentioning that in our conversations before.""Yes," Yolden sighed emotionally. "She was a classmate and the star of our generation."Matilda nodded but soon shook her head, "Wait, weren't we talking about Charlie's car company? What does that have to do with Ashley Acker?" "Here's where I let you in on a secret," Yolden said. "But first, you have to promise me that you won't tell anyone except Paul."Matilda nodded without hesitation. "Don't worry—if it's a secret, I won't tell Paul either."Yolden scratched his head. "Actually, Paul should know. We are going to marry soon, and he's my stepson, lega

In fact, the legal department of major enterprises covered many responsibilities, the chief of which concerned intellectual property, which was why veterans were needed to lead.Additionally, Charlie trusted Matilda's accomplishments in the legal field, especially since she had worked in the United States for years.With Curtis Autos' intended expansion worldwide, that meant the legal department should also know the laws of countries abroad, ready to file or respond to lawsuits at any time. After all, competitors may use the law to impede their growth, along with the government applying unfair policies to impede their development and impact on local businesses.Moreover, Charlie considered Paul young and therefore lacking in experience, not to mention that it was not likely he would abandon his family's law firm. As such, the ideal solution was to poach Matilda for now.As for Matilda, she was still in the dark and had no idea what she was in for, asking Charlie in confusion, "Lega
