Enigma Enterprises Building Entrance.
Charlie stood outside the building entrance, holding two movie tickets with a wide smile. Just then, a man and a woman strolled out.
The man was wearing a suit with a luxury watch on his wrist and a sports car key hanging from his waist. While the woman had a tall and slender figure. Both seemed to be chatting pleasantly with occasional laughter.
“Amara!” Charlie called out, hurrying over.
But Amara’s expression suddenly changed when she saw Charlie coming over.
“You…why are you here?! I told you not to come to my office! What if my colleagues see? I’ll be embarrassed!” Amara exclaimed, frustration.
“Forget that, it’s our 3rd anniversary. Look, I have got a surprise for you. Haha... I bought movie tickets for us to watch today,” Charlie said with a smile, handing the cinema tickets to Amara.
The man next to Amara in the suit, raised an eyebrow.
“Anniversary? Are you two dating? Amara, didn’t you say you didn’t have a boyfriend?” the man asked.
“Jekeil, I...” Amara seemed at a loss for words.
The man in the suit then looked Charlie up and down. And then, he threw a contemptuous smile at him.
“Amara, is this the guy you’re dating? Hard to believe you would pick someone like this to be your boyfriend! Look at his clothes, already worn out, looks poor!” Jekeil remarked.
Amara’s face suddenly darkened. She embarrassed by Charlie’s presence.
Charlie was annoyed by the man’s mockery of him. However, he didn’t argue. Instead, he chose to extend his hand to pull Amara away.
“Let’s go!” He said to Amara.
“Go away! What’s the matter!” Amara seemed to brush off Charlie’s hand trying to pull her.
“What Jekeil just said is true! You are poor. From the phone to branded bags, have you ever bought them for me? Can you afford to give me all that? Taking me to watch a movie for our anniversary is your idea of a treat? On what basis can you make me happy, huh!?” Amara exclaimed, venting all her frustration.
“Amara, even though I’m poor now, but...don’t you know that I am still keep trying!” Charlie insisted, trying to convince Amara.
“You say keep trying? Hehe! That’s an interesting joke! Your family is poor, no money, no power, and unclear background. Even if you keep trying, it’s impossible to match Jekeil’s wealth!” Amara sneered, hitting where it hurt.
“Hey, Bro, just so you know, a poor guy like you isn’t even fit to shine my shoes. Let alone being with Amara!” Jekeil began to continuously mock.
“Charlie, I’ve told you from the very beginning, a guy like you is not suitable for me! Let me make it clear today. We’re breaking up!” Amara said firmly.
Immediately after that, Amara turned to Jekeil.
“Jekeil, let’s go,” she said, hugging Jekeil’s arm in front of Charlie.
Jekeil looked at Charlie with a mocking smile.
“Poor people aren’t worthy of love, get it!?” After saying that, Jekeil embraced Amara and walked towards the luxury car parked not far from there.
Charlie’s feelings were mixed as he watched Amara’s figure disappear before him.
Sad, angry, unwilling, and... powerless.... helpless….
“Just because I’m poor, the feelings we’ve built for three years will end just like that!?” Charlie lowered his head. He clenched his fists tightly. So much so, the nails on his fingertips dug into his flesh.
Charlie and Amara had known each other since high school. After graduating, they started dating. At that time, Amara still seemed innocent. Charlie went to a local university in his city after graduating. While Amara, because she failed to get into her dream university, decided to work. Since then, Amara’s personality has been changing, very fond of wealth.
Charlie didn’t chase after Amara, nor did he try to keep her. Because he knew, he was just a poor person. What could he use to compete with Jekeil!?
Moreover, Charlie had also realized Amara’s personality thoroughly.
Honestly, for years, countless eyes had always looked down on him because he was poor. Countless oppressions and injustices he received because he was poor.
“Amara, today you can look down on me. Just wait and see, I will definitely make you regret by my success!” Charlie said with eyes that continued to blaze.
“And you, Jekeil, one day, I will surely be better than you are now!”
Midtown Tworliork in San Setillo City. Everyone living in this district is basically just ordinary people who have nothing. Including Charlie’s family, they also live in this district.
On the way home, Charlie kept thinking about how to make money. After thinking here and there, but he didn’t get any clues. He was just an undergraduate student at an ordinary university. His family was also poor, it was impossible to make a lot of money.
There is no justice in this society. Even if you try all your life, it’s still impossible to match the children from wealthy families since the beginning.
Upon arriving at the door of the house, Charlie saw a luxury car parked in front of his house. Judging from the license plate, the car came from the provincial capital.
“Why is there a luxury car in front of my house?” Suspicious, Charlie hurriedly entered the house.
After entering the house, Charlie realized there was someone else inside besides his mother. There was an old man wearing a suit with an extraordinary aura. From any angle, this old man is not just an ordinary person.
“Grandson!” the old man greeted with a smile. And the words he uttered instantly stunned Charlie.
“Mother... what... what’s going on!?” Charlie asked, looking at his mother with a puzzled expression.
Charlie’s mother had told him before. Before Charlie was born, his grandparents had long passed away. So, he had never met them before. Let alone meeting, he didn’t even know about them.
Charlie’s mother sighed deeply.
“Charlie, all this time, I... I’ve been lying to you, Son. Your grandfather actually hasn’t passed away. And the man in front of you now is your biological grandfather. Before, Grandfather didn’t approve of the relationship between me and your father. So... we had to elope....”
This sudden news made Charlie slightly dizzy. So, he still has a grandfather? And for the sake of love, his parents had to elope?
“Mother forgot to introduce you. Your grandfather here is Ornell Donovan!”
“Ornell... Donovan!” Muscles on Charlie’s face appeared to be twitching. Charlie had certainly heard this name before. Ornell Donovan is the richest person in the province of San Ancayne. His name is so famous in this country, especially in the province!
In the province of San Ancayne, Ornell’s Enigma Enterprises is almost present in every city. Moreover, everything is built magnificently. Including in San Setillo City, there is also Enigma Enterprises business there.
“Are... are you Ornell Donovan, the owner and president director of Enigma Enterprises!?” Charlie exclaimed, staring at Ornell in astonishment.
Charlie couldn’t believe it. His biological grandfather turned out to be one of the important figures in the province!?
“Exactly right, smart boy!” Ornell beamed with a smile on his face. He then stepped forward trying to hug Charlie.
But... Charlie instead stepped back to avoid it.
“For years, why didn’t you visit here? You have a lot of money, why let my mother and I live in poverty!?” Charlie vented his frustration.
It didn’t matter if Charlie had to live hard like this. But his father’s death was so sudden. All this time, his mother had been alone taking care of their needs. Charlie knew very well how hard his mother’s life had been.
“Grandson... I have tried several times to send money to both of you. But because your mother is stubborn, she refused it. Even your mother didn’t want me to meet you here. Actually, I have wanted to meet you for a long time. Anyway, I only have you as my only grandson!” Ornell said helplessly.
“Mother... is what he said true?” Charlie asked, looking at his mother.
His mother nodded, “What your grandfather said is true. At first, I didn’t want you to know him all your life. But now I understand. I don’t want to let my past grudges and hatred affect you. For the sake of your better life, I have an obligation to introduce you to your grandfather. I hope you can accept your grandfather.”
“Grandson!” Ornell smiled happily, trying to hug Charlie once again.
And this time, Charlie didn’t avoid it.
“Grandson... you have been living hard all this time. But don’t worry, your grandfather will definitely make up for it!” Ornell said. Then, he took out an ATM card and handed it to Charlie.
“Here are twelve digits of numbers stored in it. Use this as your allowance. Take it for now, if it’s not enough, you can look for me!” he added.
“What!? Twelve digits of numbers!” Charlie’s hands trembled uncontrollably. His legs were so weak that he couldn’t stand steady.
For Charlie, such a large amount was impossible for him to obtain. He didn’t expect to have that much money. And with that amount of money, it’s nothing more than an allowance?
Ornell certainly knew what was on Charlie’s mind right now.
“Hahaha... for me, this amount of money is nothing, you understand, right?” Ornell said with a smile, placing the ATM card into Charlie’s hand. “Besides, all the businesses in San Setillo City, I want you to take care of them.”
“What? Me handle them? But I’m still studying, besides... I’ve never been involved in business,” Charlie said, slightly refusing.
“It’s okay. The businesses in San Setillo City are relatively stable. And there are also several boards that oversee them. You just need to be the chairman of the board and continue your studies. You can also use all the profits the company earns in this city,” Ornell said.
“Alright!” Charlie agreed to it.
After today’s incident with Amara, Charlie understood the importance of wealth and power!
And most importantly... Charlie suddenly remembered, wasn’t Amara, who just broke up with him, working at Enigma Enterprises as a receptionist? And also, Jekeil, isn’t he also an employee there!?
And himself... would become the president director of that company. Charlie imagined, what would Amara and Jekeil’s reaction be after finding out that he was the president director of the company? And these were the moments Charlie had been waiting for....

“It’s good if you agree. Tomorrow morning, you will be the branch CEO of Enigma Enterprises in the city of San Setillo, how about that? I can arrange everything,” Ornell said with a smile.“Okay, Grandpa!” Charlie confidently replied.Ornell looked delighted to see Charlie agree. Initially, he was worried Charlie might refuse. But who would have thought everything would go smoothly.Ornell patted Charlie’s shoulder, “After you graduate, as long as you’re willing, you will inherit all of Enigma Enterprises’s assets!”After settling for a moment, Ornell bid farewell to return to the provincial capital as there were still many things to take care of. Perhaps, in the coming weeks, he would return to meet Charlie again. And he would inform Charlie that if he needed anything, he could contact him directly.After Ornell left.“I can’t believe it, it turns out I’m Ornell Donovan’s grandson, I’m the heir to Enigma Enterprises’s assets!” Charlie exclaimed in amazement.On the way home just now,

When Wendall arrived in front of Charlie, he quickly bowed respectfully, “I apologize, Mr. Charlie, the traffic suddenly became congested, so my arrival was delayed.”Hah!Everyone was stunned to see Wendall bowing to Charlie! Especially Amara and Jekeil, their mouths agape with astonishment.What’s going on? Why is Mr. Wendall bowing like that in front of Charlie? Moreover, Mr. Wendall also addressed Charlie as Mr. Charlie?At this moment, Wendall turned to Wakee.“Mr. Wakee, Mr. Charlie here will be your new director. Why are you all still silent? Quickly pay your respects to him!” Wendall exclaimed.“What!? Is he... the new director?” Wakee’s face turned pale in an instant.“So, he is indeed the new director!?” All the employees at the location were shocked. Each of them could only remain silent in their place.Jekeil’s eyes widened even more after hearing it, as if something was wrong with his ears. On this sunny morning, he felt as though he had received an incredibly powerful sl

Jekeil, who once felt like he was living in heaven, now has to plunge into the deepest valley of hell.“Security! Get this father and son out of here!” Charlie shouted while waving his hand.Dozens of security guards beside him looked at each other. They were slightly hesitant, knowing Wakee was one of the executives in this company.Charlie frowned after seeing the doubt in the security guards’ hearts.“Why? Don’t you understand what I just said!? Or do you think I can’t kick them both out of here?” he said.“Well, sir. We’ll do it immediately!” replied one of the security chiefs. They realized that Charlie was the biological grandson of Mr. Ornell.With Charlie’s backing, the security guards felt no fear in evicting Mr. Mitchell and his son. Without further ado, they immediately stepped forward and escorted them out.“Damn it! Let go of your hands. Do you know who I am! Security like you dare to evict me from here! You’re asking for death!” Jekeil shouted.“Jekeil, you and your fath

“What!? 10 million each as a meeting gift!?”“Hail Mr. Charlie! Hail Mr. Charlie!”After everyone was surprised, they shouted with enthusiasm. One by one, they were overjoyed.In some ways, money does play a very important role. In this position, money can provide welfare to all employees. Moreover, the amount is also not insignificant. Ten million!“Our new director is so generous! Just meeting for the first time and immediately giving out that much money! Seen from any angle, he’s still much better than Wakee or Jekeil!”“Yes, I agree! If we continue to make even with a director like this, our future will definitely be much better!”....The employees were busy commenting here and there. After all, who doesn’t like a director who gives out money for free!? Unlike Wakee or Jekeil. They are both so picky. Anyone who can flatter them will certainly receive multiple benefits.The way Charlie used was successful in attracting everyone’s attention. There are over 100 employees in this com

Mr. Adelio knows well that Charlie’s identity is not ordinary. How could someone from an ordinary family background easily donate 10 billion like that!?“My name is Charlie,” he said while sitting and crossing his legs, “Mr. Adelio, the donation I just gave is not without purpose. I have two requests for you.”“Alright, just tell me!” Mr. Adelio replied, nodding.Previously, Mr. Adelio had already thought so. This person must have intentions and goals when donating money to the campus!Charlie sipped the freshly made tea by Mr. Adelio’s secretary, “First, I want you to fire the lecturer named Rodrigo, or often called Mr. Killer! Second, to exempt me from all course requirements even though I often skip classes.”“No problem! That can be arranged!” Without further thought, Mr. Adelio immediately agreed to Charlie’s requests.Just firing one lecturer, right? That’s easy! There are many lecturers at this campus. And of course, 10 billion is more important!“Well then, I won’t take up any
Rise of the Student Zillionaire Heir Chapter 7: Stabbing Montego
Some female students in the class started to feel restless and curious. If they could find out who the wealthy man donating funds to the campus was, they would resort to any means to get close to him. If successful, they would hit the jackpot.“Unfortunately, his name and class weren’t written above the notification. It only says that an unnamed student donated money to our campus!”“Exactly! Everyone is trying to find out about the rich person on web forums and other chat groups. But still, no one knows who this mysterious rich person is.”All the students in the class continued to discuss the matter.Listening to people who wouldn’t stop talking about him, Charlie chuckled. He didn’t expect the whole campus to know about the donation he made in such a short time.Before leaving the dean’s office, Charlie had already instructed Mr. Adelio not to publish his name and class. That way, he wouldn’t have to deal with this troublesome issue.After hearing the classmates’ remarks, Montego e

After reading the document, Mr. Adelio’s face looked shocked.Based on the data, Charlie comes from a poor family. Two years ago, he even applied for a scholarship at the campus.How could someone who can donate 10 billion to the school come from a poor family?“Sir, perhaps this data is fake. With the money he has, it would be easy for Charlie to fabricate false data. He must want to live simply, that’s why he deliberately asked us to hide his identity in this donation,” said the secretary.The dean nodded, “True. I have a feeling that his status is not ordinary. However, we must treat him well. Don’t make him unhappy!”That night, at the Diamond Nightclub.Charlie was sitting at the bar table.“Miss, I need personal data of someone. His name is Montego Alvarez, a second-year student at San Setillo University,” said Charlie while handing a wad of money to the beautiful woman at the bar.The beautiful woman had long curly red hair. Her appearance was so sexy and charming. With her lon

After speaking, Charlie immediately pulled Felixa’s hand outside.After leaving the bar, Felixa’s face still looked shocked.“Charlie, you ... where did you get so much money? Are you doing something illegal?”So far Felixa has known Charlie as a man from a poor family. Last year, Charlie even had to apply for a scholarship to the campus. So, why could he give so much money to Galeno?“If I say I’m the grandson of Ornell Donovan, would you believe me?” asked Charlie with a smile.“Ornell Donovan from Enigma Enterprises? Impossible!” Felixa looked amazed.“It’s understandable if you don’t believe it. Same, I was like that at first. Just think I won the lottery,” said Charlie, spreading his hands to the side.Next, he took out 40 million and handed them to Felixa, “Take this money. Later, don’t sing in a place like this again.”“No! I can’t! We’re just classmates, how could I accept this much money from you!” Felixa quickly waved her hand.“Why not?

Chapter 382: Kaelric’s Swordsmanship!
Charlie stared at the Blood Red Sword in his hand and thought, Thankfully, this sword helps save 30 percent of my energy. Otherwise, I might be in an even more difficult position right now!The material of the Blood Red Sword, the unparalleled blade once wielded by Kaelric, could not be found in this world. Even in Kaelric’s realm, the sword was crafted from the finest, most valuable, and rarest materials.In addition to its durability and sharpness, the sword had another remarkable feature: its ability to suppress an opponent’s strength. The sword could reduce the opponent’s power by 30 percent.Do not underestimate that 30 percent. If an opponent unleashed ten thousand units of energy, this sword could reduce their energy by three thousand units.This characteristic alone made it renowned as a priceless weapon.If the opponent’s strength wasn’t reduced by 30 percent, and Charlie had to endure their full power, his arm would likely have gone completely numb.“What?

“Begin!” Ryzeo uttered the single command.After a brief nod, Alistair and Mortimer immediately moved toward Dario and Edgar.Dario and Edgar’s gazes were intense. Although they were adept at handling opponents at the Virtual Core level, facing adversaries from the True Core level was an entirely different challenge.In the world of cultivation, crossing levels in battle was nearly impossible. Each advancement brought an immense disparity in power.“Edgar, Dario, these two elders are True Core cultivators. You may have to handle them. What lies ahead is truly difficult, the real battle,” Charlie said gravely.“Don’t worry, Brother Charlie. We’ll do our best.”Dario and Edgar nodded with determination.Dario’s strength had recently surfaced; perhaps he couldn’t defeat someone at the True Core level. However, with his extensive combat experience, while victory couldn’t be guaranteed, he could at least hold his ground for a while.As for Edgar, his physique was unique. Thanks to his ext
Chapter 380: The Battle Begins!
In front of the Blood Red Sword, the head of the Core Virtual-level guard was sliced off as easily as cutting through a watermelon.“Thud!”The guard’s head was instantly severed and fell to the ground, now detached from its body.In the blink of an eye, the guard was dead. He didn’t even have time to comprehend what was happening before his life was snuffed out.One move, and death came swiftly!Another one fell from the eight guards of the Harrington family.Fresh blood dripped onto the Blood Red Sword.Upon witnessing this, all the members of the Harrington family nearby were thrown into chaos.They never imagined that the head of one of their guards would be decapitated with just one strike. It was terrifying!“This person is clearly a cultivator at the Core Virtual level as well. Why is he so strong?”“My god, this is truly unimaginable. How could Claus be killed so easily?”The members of the Harrington family stared at Charlie in disbelief.Before Charlie made his move, they th

“Alwi, who are those three people?” Erika asked. “As far as I know, the leader is named Charlie. He’s a big businessman in the San Ancayne region who has an unusual relationship with Susilo. I don’t know what kind of luck he got, but suddenly he became a Virtual Core-level cultivator. He also has a grudge against the Harrington family,” Alwi explained.“Hmm, those three are still at the Virtual Core level, yet they dare to challenge the Harrington family? They must be overconfident in their abilities. What’s the difference between this and walking into death?” Erika said with a mocking tone. They were all cultivators. When Charlie, Dario, and Edgar released their energy, Alwi and Erika could sense that they were at the Virtual Core level. “These three are really reckless. Even if I wanted to take revenge on the Harrington family, I wouldn’t dare act rashly, especially since they’re only at the Virtual Core level,” Alwi shook his head. In their eyes, this was equivalent to walking

“Brother Charlie, if we live, we live together. If we die, we die together! I will accompany you in facing danger. Isn’t it just the Harrington family we’re up against? What’s there to be afraid of?!” Edgar said loudly.Charlie’s heart trembled when he heard Edgar’s words, and his nose wrinkled in discomfort.“Goodness, the wind is so strong, sand got into my eyes,” Charlie rubbed his eyes, which were slightly red.With a sibling like Edgar, Charlie had no regrets in his life.After rubbing his eyes, Charlie said, “Okay, Edgar. But you have to promise me, if we don’t succeed, you have to find an opportunity to escape.”Charlie knew Edgar was determined to join him.Charlie thought carefully. If, in the end, he couldn’t save Silvia, Charlie would sacrifice his life to cover Edgar’s escape, giving him a chance to flee.“As long as Kak Charlie allows me to leave, I will do as you say,” Edgar responded.“Okay, let’s go,” Charlie nodded enthusiastically.At that moment, an SUV drove up to

“This is not your fault. Even if you realized it, with the power of the Harrington family, you wouldn’t be able to stop them,” said Charlie.“Charlie, what should we do now?” Dario asked, panic in his voice.“Go to the Harrington family’s residence and save Silvia!” Charlie said firmly.“Charlie, don’t go there recklessly. If you go alone to the Harrington family, you will definitely die!” Dario said seriously.“Of course I know the danger. But you know me. I can’t not go. If you were in danger right now, I’d still enter that fiery hole to save you,” Charlie said seriously.Dario, who was on the other end of the phone, nodded. He certainly knew this about Charlie.“I understand, Charlie. But you shouldn’t go alone to the Harrington family’s residence to save Silvia. It’s better for us to go to the Cloud Temple and ask for help from Xiao. If Priest Xiao agrees to come with us, we would have a better chance of saving Silvia,” said Dario.“Why didn’t I think of this?” Charlie’s eyes lit

Upon hearing this, Sivert’s expression froze.“Mr. Donald, you… you can’t do this. I offended that rich man because I followed your orders. You can’t just abandon me!” Sivert said in panic.“Not my problem! Don’t drag me into this mess. Even if TikTok goes bankrupt, it has nothing to do with me,” Donald sneered.“Beep beep.” The call was abruptly disconnected.“Crash!”“You bastard!”Sivert furiously threw his phone onto the floor.“Donald, that damn bastard is utterly shameless. Helping him has landed me in trouble. Now he’s just walking away like it’s nothing!” Sivert gritted his teeth in rage.Though consumed by anger, Sivert was helpless. Donald held immense power in the capital. With Donald indifferent and walking away, there was nothing Sivert could do.“Mr. Sivert, Mr. Donald is a scoundrel with no compassion. It’s no surprise he doesn’t care and simply walks away,” Mattis said.“What do we do now? This is killing me!” Sivert looked panicked.“Mr. Sivert, the only solution now

At that moment, Sivert suddenly remembered that the IP address of Huxley Pierce’s Father was located in the San Ancayne province.“Huxley Pierce’s Father. That’s it, it must be him!”Sivert shouted, his eyes wide with realization. The veins in his neck bulged visibly.He recalled the harsh words Huxley Pierce’s Father had once said about destroying Tiktok. Back then, Sivert hadn’t taken the threat seriously, even mocking him.It seemed now that Huxley Pierce’s Father had been serious and was acting quickly.“That’s right, Mr. Sivert. I also suspect that all of this is Huxley Pierce’s Father’s doing,” Mattis said.“It looks like we underestimated his capabilities,” Sivert muttered, gritting his teeth.“Mr. Sivert, the only solution is to contact Huxley Pierce’s Father immediately, apologize, and beg him to fix everything,” Mattis suggested in a panic.“That’s all we can do.” Sivert nodded, looking powerless.In San Setillo City.At that moment, Charlie was dining with Salvino and Yanis

The viewers eagerly discussed the matter. At the same time, they praised the greatness of Huxley Pierce’s Father. They were curious about his identity. At Lydia’s house. Lydia turned on her computer and discovered that TikTok had been hacked. When Lydia saw the message “TikTok, you will bear the consequences!” displayed on the internet, she immediately thought of Huxley Pierce’s Father. Now, Lydia also saw many news reports about streamers changing jobs in TikTok’s internal streamer group, and they were all core TikTok streamers. This left Lydia very shocked. “Last night, he said he would take revenge on TikTok. I didn’t expect him to actually do it. Who is he really?” Lydia gazed out the window. TikTok’s unfair judgment made Lydia feel sad. Seeing TikTok being destroyed today made the sadness in her heart lessen. Lydia knew that Huxley Pierce’s Father was helping her. She was very curious why someone who had never met her would help her like this. At this moment, Vina, Lydia’s
