Don Albert was here!Mr. Wade? Who was Mr. Wade?Albert marched into the room and pounded Bill to the floor. “You f*cking idiot, how could you not recognize Mr. Wade! I’ll f*cking kill you!”Albert cursed while kicking Bill frantically.Bill, who was so invincible and pompous earlier, was crouching on the floor yelping like a dog being beaten.Loreen was genuinely bewildered. What was going on?All the men were also panicking. Was the young man actually Mr. Wade? They had almost laid their hands on him too. They were literally digging their own graves!Albert growled at the rest of the gang, “And you fools too! What are you standing there like stupid logs? Apologize to Mr. Wade now!”“Mr. Wade, we’re so so sorry. We were a bunch of fools to not have recognized you! Please forgive us!”All the men knelt down simultaneously and apologized profusely.Bill was equally terrified. He slapped himself in the face while begging for mercy. “Mr. Wade, I’m terribly sorry, please forgive

Loreen had agreed with Doris Young of Emgrand Group to start working tomorrow.After leaving Heaven Springs, Charlie sent her back to the hotel where she was staying and then left.Loreen was still in shock from what happened at the restaurant earlier while pondering about her future prospects.She was assigned an important mission for her trip to Aurous Hill this time. From the obvious perspective, she was here for her new job at Emgrand Group, but she had a much larger hidden agenda from her family.Her father had told her that according to top secret information, the Wade family, the most prominent family in Eastcliff, had found their young master who had been missing for many years. They had even bought the entire Emgrand Group as a gift to the young master to practice and sharpen his entrepreneurship skills.In other words, the young master of the Wade family was in Aurous Hill now and he was the new chairman of Emgrand Group.In Eastcliff, which was filled with mysterious a

Doris became alert and cautious as soon as Loreen said that.Charlie had just asked her to keep an eye on Loreen the day before yesterday. As soon as Loreen reported to duty, she asked about the chairman. It seemed very odd and unusual.Doris eyed the pretty young lady and thought to herself, ‘What is your purpose of coming all the way to Emgrand Group?’She said with a smile, “Our chairman rarely comes into the office, but if he does, I’ll tell him and I’ll notify you if he wants to see you.”Loreen was a little disappointed, but she kept a smile on her face and said, “Okay, thank you, Miss Young!”As soon as Doris returned to her office, she immediately reported the matter to Charlie.Charlie became more vigilant as well when he heard that Loreen had requested to see him as soon as she reported to work.Sure enough, the lady had literally come for him.What was her purpose in approaching him?Was she trying to harm him or seduce him?Regardless of her purpose, Charlie felt

Charlie was very happy to hear his wife say so.It seemed that he had picked the best venue for their wedding anniversary. She must be so thrilled and happy on that day!They walked into the Sky Garden and sat down in the reserved seats. Soon, Loreen arrived.“Claire!”“Loreen!”The two best friends hugged each other, happiness flooding their expressions.Then, they reminisced about their past excitedly while holding hands. It took them a while until they finally calmed down from the excitement.Loreen chided, “Claire, you’re such a spendthrift. You actually booked the Sky Garden for dinner!”Claire giggled gleefully, “You’re here! Of course I’d need to spend some money!”Loreen grinned. “You’re my best friend!”“Frankly speaking, I’m not qualified to dine here. I’d asked Miss Doris Young to make the reservation for me with her membership card!”Loreen sighed. “The Sky Garden sets quite a high requirement, doesn’t it? I heard that it’s only for their Diamond members or somet

This was starting to get a little tricky.Charlie felt that he needed to talk to Isaac in advance and arrange for full protection on the day. He couldn’t reveal his identity no matter what.In the middle of the dinner, Loreen started, “Before I came to Aurous Hill, I talked to some of our collegemates about it and they suggested holding a class reunion. What do you think?”Charlie said immediately, “No thanks, I won’t attend.”“Why?” Loreen asked curiously. “Although we were not collegemates for four years, we spent a year together nonetheless!”When Charlie was taken in by Lord Wilson, he sent him to Aurous University in order to let him know Claire in advance. He and Claire spent the final year together in the same class.After graduation, they got married immediately.He didn’t build a friendship with anyone in the class. Besides, most of them looked down on him, so he wasn’t interested at all when he heard about the reunion.Claire shared the same reluctance. She said to Lo

Since Charlie had agreed to attend the class reunion, Claire reminded him, “We have to prepare some gifts for the opening of Douglas’s restaurant, we can’t go empty-handed.”Charlie nodded. “Alright, I’ll go and buy a gift from him tomorrow morning.”“Great,” Claire said, “I have to go to the Emgrand Group office tomorrow morning.”Loreen said in surprise, “Is that so? Then stop by my office when you’re done, I can carpool to Douglas’s restaurant with you at noon.”Claire smiled coyly, “Well, you can throw your wishful thinking out the window! I don’t have a car. I usually take the taxi or bus, and sometimes Charlie will fetch me with his scooter.”“What?” Loreen blurted, exasperated. “Young lady, you’re a director of a company now, why don’t you buy a car for yourself?”“I’ve just started working and haven’t made any money yet. My salary is usually used for our expenses and I have to give my mom an allowance. I’m only left with a thousand dollars or so at the end of the month an
Chapter 48
A lot of women were envious and curious after hearing the news.Everyone was wondering who was so lucky to have a man spend millions of dollars in one night to charter the whole Sky Garden and confess his love to her!Many people were looking forward to the day to come so that they could go and have a look for themselves!In order to keep his identity secret, Charlie ordered Isaac to make a special transformation to the Sky Garden on the day of the event. At the same time, he anticipated the arrival of the day!He wanted to give Claire a once-in-a-lifetime grand wedding on their wedding anniversary!***Charlie went to the 4s shop early the next morning.He had a bank card with a balance of ten billion dollars that he hadn’t used much of yet. This time, he wanted to spend it on a luxury car for Claire that was classy and presentable.He intended to buy her a Rolls-Royce right away, but on second thought, he was worried that Claire would not accept it. First, it would not be e

Charlie plastered a sarcastic smile on his face and asked, “How much commission do you make on this car?”The person snarled, “Ten thousand dollars!”Charlie nodded as a sign of acknowledgment. “Okay, very well, you’ve just lost ten thousand dollars.”He then turned and went out. Coincidentally, he bumped into the manager of the shop with a name tag on his suit that read Arthur Walsh.He asked the man directly, “Are you in charge of this shop?”“Yes, I am.” Arthur nodded. “May I help you?”Charlie pointed to the rude sales executive and said, “You’d better fire that person now. He is a rotten apple that will do no good to your business here.”The person quickly dashed forward and said, “Mr. Walsh, don’t listen to his nonsense, he is crazy! He is just a poor bugger who comes to use our WiFi and air conditioning!”Charlie smiled coyly. “A poor bugger, you say? Just wait and see.”He immediately went out of the door and walked into the BMW showroom next door.As soon as he walke
