“By the way, Mr. Rahil, where is the new CEO now?” Hazell asked.Montego was also curious.“The CEO is resting in the VIP lounge while waiting for the party to officially start,” Rahil replied.“Really? In that case... may I go to the VIP lounge to greet him first?” Hazell asked, smiling.Now that the new CEO had taken office and Hazell still wanted to continue their collaboration with Enigma Enterprises, he had to win over the new CEO.“I can only convey your intention. Whether Mr. Charlie wants to meet you or not, it all depends on Mr. Charlie,” Rahil replied.“Alright. Then please convey it to Mr. Charlie,” Hazell said, smiling.Hazell’s company was just a local building materials company, while Enigma Enterprises was a top company in San Ancayne Province. Obviously, the two companies couldn’t be compared.Meanwhile, in the VIP lounge.Not long after the hotel CEO left, Charlie’s phone rang.“Hello, Mr. Rahil,” Charlie answered the phone.“Mr. Charlie, Hazell from Prime Corporation
“Alright, Mr. Director!” Rahil replied with a nod.Hazell immediately looked panicked upon hearing those words. If Enigma Enterprises didn’t cooperate with them, their company’s fate could be sealed!“Mr. Charlie, I beg you... I beg you to give us one more chance! After this, I will definitely teach my son a lesson!” Hazell pleaded.“Enough already, be quiet!” Charlie said, furrowing his brow slightly.Then, Charlie narrowed his eyes and looked at Hazell.“I think my decision is clear here. I’ve also given you a little face in this matter. If I really wanted to pursue this, both of you would have to die! Not even Angels could protect you!” Charlie said.Hazell was once again overwhelmed with immense fear. His heart beat faster than ever before. He knew that with the backing of Ornell’s grandson, Charlie could easily kill them both!Montego slumped to the floor; his face filled with despair.It’s over!Montego knew it was all over!Charlie sat back on his leather sofa. At the same time
“Al... alright, Sir! I’ll remember your message!” said the Hotel Manager while nodding quickly. He also seemed to wipe the cold sweat on his forehead.Charlie glanced at the Hotel Manager and smirked, “About this assault issue, I will report it to your director. I believe your director will have their own decision regarding this case.”After saying that, Charlie immediately called for Salvino to enter the hotel.“Re... report to the Director?” Hearing Charlie’s words just now, his legs went weak. If the Hotel Director found out, he would surely be fired as the manager.After entering the hotel.“Rahil, please report this issue to the Royal Hotel director,” said Charlie to Rahil.“Alright, Sir,” Rahil replied while nodding.Charlie then looked at Salvino, “Salvi, you just let out all your emotions earlier, right!?”“Yeah, of course! It’s all because of you, Charlie! Hehehe... if it weren’t for you, how could I retaliate against him. Now I’m very satisfied, seeing him scared and apologi
Charlie attempted to explain, “I’m sorry, Uncle, I really didn’t mean any harm to Zerlina. It’s just that I owe her a favor, so I wanted to repay it.”“But my daughter just said, right? The money doesn’t need to be returned, so please, you may leave,” Zerlina’s father waved his hand, signaling Charlie to go. He thought Charlie was flirting with his daughter. As a father, he naturally wanted to protect her. Just so you know, there are plenty of shady guys trying to woo his daughter.At this moment...“Damn! A ragged guy like you dares to flirt with Zerlina!” Suddenly, a voice full of arrogance came from behind.Charlie turned to the source of the voice. A man dressed in branded items from head to toe stood there. An Omega watch adorned his wrist. His face exuded disdain.“Luke!”Seeing this man, Zerlina and her father’s expressions changed instantly.As for Charlie himself, he furrowed his brows. Because the guy Luke just referred to was undoubtedly him.In an instant, the man named Lu
“What in the world is this!?” Luke, who was at the front row, was startled. Wasn’t that the person he was supposed to teach a lesson to later!? But... how could this be!? The one who should be on stage is the new director of the Enigma Enterprises branch!Yes, that person is Charlie!“Surely it can’t be him! Could it be that he broke in and got on stage!?” Luke muttered in frustration. He couldn’t believe that Charlie was the new director.At the guest table in the back row.After seeing Charlie step onto the stage, Yalena was equally astonished. Wasn’t he the one she met at a club a few days ago?Back then, she had looked down on Charlie. However, who would have thought that Charlie would end up driving a Lamborghini? Nevertheless, upon reflection, she thought that Charlie must have just rented the Italian sports car. If she had the chance to meet Charlie again, she vowed silently to spill everything.“Could he be the new director? No! This can’t be!” Yalena shook her head in disbeli
“Alright, Sir! I promise not to bother Zerlina anymore,” Luke replied, nodding continuously.After hearing Luke’s answer, Charlie turned around and headed towards the next guest table.As Charlie left the guest table, Luke’s father, Lucas, gave Luke a hard slap. This slap was obviously to vent all his anger!“How dare you cause trouble with Mr. Charlie!?” Smack!Lucas slapped Luke hard. This slap was certainly to let out all his anger!“Remember my words well! I’m grounding you for a year, you’re not allowed to leave the house. Reflect on all your actions!” Lucas shouted, pointing at Luke’s head.Upon hearing that he would be grounded for a year and not allowed to leave the house, Luke naturally didn’t accept it willingly. But what could he do? He couldn’t refute his father’s words. Whose fault was it for him to get involved with Charlie?Everything that had just happened was etched in Zerlina and her father’s hearts. They always remembered what had happened before. Before the event
“Because of me?” Zerlina’s cheeks flushed.“Yes, because yesterday you helped me. With what happened today, consider it as me repaying your kindness,” Charlie said with a smile.“But... yesterday I only helped you pay a few million. Whereas this is a work contract worth possibly hundreds of billions,” Zerlina said.Although Zerlina really wanted to collaborate with Enigma Enterprises, she also didn’t want to burden Charlie, especially causing him to incur a significant loss.“It’s okay, money is not a problem for me,” Charlie replied casually.“But my company is smaller. It seems like its production target won’t be met,” Zerlina said anxiously.“That’s an easy fix. Our Enigma Enterprises will invest 200 billion in your company. That fund can be used to expand your factories!” Charlie replied.“What? 200 billion?!”Zerlina and her father, Javion Sapphire, were astonished to hear this.“I... I’m not dreaming, am I?” Javion was truly shocked. He couldn’t believe it.Zerlina’s mouth hung
“Grandpa, who is he?” Charlie asked curiously.“His name is Dario. Once, when he was young, he joined the special forces. After retiring, he became an underground boxer. I saved his life once. Since then, he’s been my right-hand man. If you count, he’s been working with me for 10 years,” Ornell explained.“Former special forces? Underground boxer?”Charlie was astonished to hear this. Back then, he was just a poor kid, never encountering such fantastic things.“Charlie, recently, I’ve asked Dario to secretly protect you. But I didn’t expect my grandson to be this capable,” Ornell said with admiration.“Really? Thank you, Grandpa,” Charlie nodded gratefully.When he was kidnapped, Charlie thought his life was at its end.Upon reflection, Grandpa had already been considering his safety long before. If that gang hadn’t been willing to let him go, it was likely this man named Dario who would have come to his aid.“But, Grandpa, he’s alone. How can he face a group of enemies? It seems like
“Everyone must want to meet Lyrican, the God of Gambling, right?” Arvid asked with a smile. The business and political giants surrounding the venue nodded their heads one by one. Magician Lyrican was very famous. Many of them had heard Lyrican’s name but had never met him. Now, they could see Lyrican in person. Of course, they wanted to witness the magician’s prowess.“Since this is a charity event, I’m going to hold a little game here. Everyone can play with Lyrican. All the money Lyrican wins will be donated to charity. If you win money from Lyrican, I will pay you,” said Arvid.At that moment, a waiter moved a table and brought a deck of playing cards.Anyway, the lost money would be donated to charity. Some gambling-savvy bosses came to play, and everyone enjoyed it.At this point, Arvid also pulled out a deck of playing cards and then looked at Charlie.“Charlie, are you brave enough to play with me? If you’re not, then I’ll just consider you a coward!” Arvid said with a confid
Arvid was surrounded by an extraordinary aura. Wherever he went, business tycoons and political giants smiled at him. After all, Arvid’s grandfather had a powerful identity. Coupled with Arvid’s own impressive abilities—he was once a member of the Special Forces Snipers and had won championships in military competitions—he embodied skill and honor. Arvid was a genius in the city of Hellion, with a promising future ahead.Arvid approached Charlie directly. In the blink of an eye, he stood before Charlie. They exchanged intense glares, as if an epic battle were about to commence. The onlookers could sense a strong smell of gunpowder in the air.“I heard that when Arvid first went to San Setillo City, he had a conflict with Charlie, Ornell’s grandson. It seems that’s indeed the case now.”“The Delacroix and Donovan families have never gotten along. With the animosity between them, the aura of conflict is palpable when Charlie and Arvid meet.”“It looks like we’re in for a good show after
Soon after, Mira grabbed Charlie’s arm and said, “Charlie is my boyfriend now. Varyn, I hope you won’t come near me again.”Mira did this to make Varyn angry.“You... you...” Varyn’s eyes were red with rage. He had pursued Mira for so long and had never touched her before. However, seeing Mira take the initiative to hug another man ignited his anger.“Charlie, you stole my woman!”An angry Varyn rushed forward and grabbed Charlie by the collar.“Varyn, do you want to hit me? Go ahead!” Charlie scoffed.Mira quickly shouted, “Varyn, are you crazy? Do you not know where you are? If you hit him here, it’s your father who will suffer the consequences!”Today’s charity event was organized by the provincial organization. Even though the Redwyne family was one of the four great families, they wouldn’t escape from trouble so easily.After hearing those words, Varyn released his grip on Charlie, but his face was still filled with reluctance.“Varyn, aren’t you angry? Then just vent your anger!
The news spread by Wendall, stating that the Goldmere Group had ended its cooperation with the Delacroix family and would stop pressuring the Enigma Group with discounts, quickly circulated throughout the company.Enigma Group’s office area on the second floor.“Mr. Charlie is truly amazing; he even managed to convince the Goldmere Family.”“Unbelievable! The Goldmere Family has never been open to compromise. I don’t know what Mr. Charlie did to make them agree to our requests!”“We underestimated Mr. Charlie’s capabilities! We have to admit that he is much stronger than Mr. Vernon.”After the company management heard the news, they were incredibly excited and rushed to share it with their colleagues. At the same time, they were also in awe of Charlie’s brilliance. He managed to resolve the issue swiftly.Evan, of course, heard this news as well.Inside Evan’s room. The tension was evident on Evan’s face.“Damn! Damn! How could this happen? Why did the Goldmere Family do this?” Evan
Shortly after that, Alwyne looked at Charlie and said, “Charlie, I will make the Goldmere Group stop collaborating with the Delacroix family and cease pressuring the Enigma Group through price reductions. I’m doing this because of your kindness in helping my granddaughter!”Charlie was, of course, delighted to hear this.“Then, thank you, Mr. Alwyne.” Charlie smiled and expressed his gratitude.“We don’t owe each other in the future. You may leave.” Alwyne waved his hand. “Excuse me!” After saying that, Charlie turned around and walked away.“Grandpa, thank you so much! You’re very kind!” Mira also thanked him cheerfully.“You silly girl! Why did you risk your life like that?” said Alwyne, shaking his head and letting out a deep sigh. Mira stuck out her tongue with a smile, then said, “Grandpa, I’m going now.” After saying that, Mira also hurried out. Outside the room. “Charlie!” Charlie had only walked a few steps when Mira caught up behind him. “Charlie, this problem
After a brief phone call, the receptionist led Charlie to the office of the general manager of Goldmere Group.The person who caught his attention was a middle-aged man wearing glasses. He was Glendi, the general manager of Goldmere Group and the eldest son of Alwyne Goldmere.“Mr. Charlie, please have a seat,” Glendi said with a smile on his face.Once Charlie was seated, he immediately began, “Hello, Mr. Glendi, I’m Charlie, the deputy general manager of Enigma Group. I’m here this time...”Just as Charlie said that, Glendi waved his hand and interrupted him.“It seems that Mr. Charlie’s visit this time is to ask Goldmere Group to stop the drastic price cuts, isn’t it?” said Glendi.“That’s correct.” Charlie nodded in agreement.“Mr. Charlie, you might as well just go back. There’s nothing more to discuss on this matter.” Glendi waved his hand dismissively.“We haven’t even started the discussion. How do you know there’s nothing left to talk about?” Charlie responded with a faint sm
Charlie glanced at the man with gold-rimmed glasses and smiled at him, saying, “Felixa, get in the car!”“Wow, Charlie, you changed your car again! Wasn’t your last one a Lamborghini?” Felixa exclaimed, covering her mouth in surprise.As she said that, Felixa opened the door and got into the car.“Changed cars again? L-Lamborghini!”After hearing those words, the man with gold-rimmed glasses could no longer contain his shock! It was only now that he realized how extraordinary the man he had looked down upon was! Brrmmmm! With the roaring sound of the sports car, the Porsche 918 sped away. Wherever the Porsche 918 zoomed, its presence always attracted everyone’s attention. Charlie drove Felixa to his new villa. “Wow, this villa is so big, so stylish, and it even has a swimming pool! I’ve never seen a house as beautiful as this in my life!” Felixa marveled. “My grandfather gave me this house. The Porsche 918 I just drove was also a gift from my grandfather!” As he said that
On a live broadcast.Huxley Pierce’s father: “Calm down, Lydia, I won’t ask for your contact. You just need to sing a song as a thank you; that’s enough.”Lydia nodded in response. After all, she was live streaming because she planned to sing a song. Soon after, Lydia sang “Fake Love Comes True” during her live broadcast. “Wow, she sings it so well!” “Not only does she sing well, but she’s also very beautiful!” “Isn’t this song quite popular lately? Is she the original singer of this song?” “Yes, she is the original singer.” “So she’s the original artist. I’m a fan of hers!” The stream was flooded with comments. Many people entered the live broadcast because they wanted to see the new “Sultan” of TikTok. However, Lydia’s singing unexpectedly attracted so many fans. Clearly, after today’s event, Lydia’s popularity would rise drastically! After finishing a song, Lydia said she had something to do, so she would end her live stream. Charlie also exited the broadcast.
“Thank you, Huxley Pierce, for the ten super shots, thank you.” Lydia smiled and expressed her gratitude.On the live broadcast screen:Huxley Pierce: Lydia, you are very beautiful. I’ve given you ten super shots. Why don’t you give me your number as a thank you? Give me your number and I’ll give you fifty more shots!“Sorry, Huxley Pierce. I’m doing a live broadcast to meet my fans, not to get rewards. I can’t agree to your request,” Lydia replied.Huxley Pierce: What? Not for rewards? Lydia, you’re just a newcomer; there’s no need to pretend to be innocent. If no one gives you rewards, then no one supports you. You’re nothing at all. Do you think you’re amazing just because you sang a famous song?As Huxley Pierce’s words appeared, a flood of comments became more lively.“Huxley Pierce, you’re outrageous! Why are you saying that to Lydia?”“Huxley Pierce is right. I support Huxley Pierce!”Some supported Huxley Pierce, while others opposed him. Lydia’s expression darkened as she re
