When Charlie arrived.Charlie’s eyes immediately scrutinized Lydia’s appearance today. She was wearing a white off-shoulder lace dress with a temperament much higher than usual.“Charlie, I didn’t expect the environment here to be so bad and the houses so shabby. I’ve been living in San Setillo City for years. I didn’t even know that San Setillo still has places as shabby as this,” Lydia said.“You’re a young lady. Of course, you’ve never lived in a slum like this,” Charlie replied lazily.Lydia was accustomed to a good life, not the life of poverty like this.“Have you been living here for long? I really doubt if people can still live in such rundown houses,” Lydia looked at the houses with a concerned gaze.“You’re a young lady, how can we compare our lives to yours?” Charlie chuckled.“Okay, get in the car,” Lydia opened the Ferrari’s door.“Your car is nice,” Charlie glanced at the Ferrari Lydia was driving.“Nonsense, this car costs more than four billion, how’s that? Looks good,
“Mr. Jaquon, my girlfriend is in the restroom, he’ll be here soon,” Lydia replied with a smile.“Oh, I see, Lydia, please have a seat,” Jaquon waved his hand.After they sat down.“Mr. Jaquon, I heard you’re back from the provincial capital, this time to take over The Heaven Resort, is that right?” Telvis asked.“That’s right. My father said he wanted to train me, so he handed over this resort to me to run it on my own,” Jaquon said.A young woman asked curiously, “Mr. Jaquon, I’m curious, how much money has been spent on building this resort?”“Not much. The resort spent around 300 billion. This time my father gave me an additional 100 billion as further investment for the second phase development of this resort,” Jaquon proudly answered.Everyone there fell silent, unable to believe what they were hearing.“Mr. Jaquon, we’re all the same age. But you’re already able to manage such a big business on your own, truly admirable!” praised Telvis.“Yes, I’m worried that ten or twenty year
“Tsk, tsk, Lydia, what were you thinking by choosing a poor kid to be your boyfriend? You’re incomprehensible,” Jaquon shook his head, laughing.They all present there shared the same doubts as Jaquon.Only James sighed quietly, how could Charlie be called a poor kid? He’s clearly the new CEO of Enigma Enterprises and he’s clearly Ornell’s grandson!Of course, James didn’t say it.Because Charlie glared at him when he entered. And Charlie didn’t take the initiative to reveal his identity, so he couldn’t dare to act rashly.“I like the poor kid, can’t I?” After Lydia said this, she pulled Charlie to sit beside her chair.“Charlie, you’re amazing, even Lydia’s rooting for you. What tricks have you pulled off?” Jaquon asked, astonished.“None,” Charlie replied casually.Jaquon frowned, seeing Charlie’s indifferent attitude towards him. How daring this kid?Then, Jaquon looked at James and said, “James, didn’t you just mention Ornell’s grandson? Go on, I’m curious.”“Exactly!”Everyone t
Lydia, her face pale, could only stare at Charlie.“Charlie, you must apologize to Mr. Jaquon immediately. Given Mr. Jaquon’s status, it wouldn’t be a problem if you were the one to apologize to him first.”As Lydia said this, her tone of plea was evident. She knew that if Charlie didn’t apologize, this issue would truly escalate into an undesirable situation for everyone.“Apologize to him? Sorry, he doesn’t deserve that! Even if his father were here, he wouldn’t be worthy of an apology from me,” Charlie said emphatically.Boom!As Charlie said this, the whole room felt like it was about to explode.“Oh my, this kid is saying that Mr. Jaquon isn’t deserving of an apology from him? He even said that Mr. Jaquon’s father isn’t worthy of it?”“Such insolence, it’s a big joke that a poor kid can freely say things like that!”Everyone looked at Charlie as if they were seeing a madman.It should be noted that Jaquon’s father had assets totaling around six trillion, making him one of the ric
Waiting for Jaquon at the end of the hallway was Charlie, of course.“Mr. Charlie Donovan.”After Jaquon walked past Charlie, without delay, he immediately bowed respectfully to Charlie.When Jaquon was inside the room, he actually wanted to address Charlie by that title. Somehow, Charlie seemed unwilling to disclose his identity in front of many people. Surely, there was a reason behind his attitude, so Jaquon decided to hold back.“It seems you already know that my grandfather is Ornell Donovan, how did you find out?” Charlie clasped his hands together and said lightly.“Mr. Charlie, James informed me of that through a text message,” Jaquon replied cautiously.Jaquon was considered the second richest second-generation in San Setillo, but compared to Charlie, the difference was still vast.Not to mention Jaquon, even if his father were with him now, neither of them would dare to offend Charlie.Jaquon quickly continued, “Mr. Charlie, I apologize for my impudent behavior earlier, plea
Upon hearing this, the expression on Charlie’s face suddenly froze. What did it mean to say along with Miss Lady?Wait, Mr. Shelton?Yesterday?Charlie suddenly remembered Lydia!“Mr. Shelton, is Lydia’s father?” Charlie quickly looked at the man in the suit.“It seems you can still remember very clearly. Since you already know, why do you still ask him to come see you? What do you mean by that?” the man in the suit had a cold expression on his face.Charlie could only shake his head and smile.Charlie initially thought. Mr. Shelton, did he want Charlie to approach him with the leadership identity he possessed?Now it seemed Lydia’s father came to him because he didn’t know that Charlie was the leader of Enigma Enterprises, didn’t know that Ornell Donovan was his grandfather. If he knew this, would he still ask him to meet him?Charlie thought to himself, why did Lydia’s father suddenly look for him?“Hey, you play by yourself for now! I’ll go out to meet someone,” Charlie said as he
Bilda Town.After Charlie came back, Grandpa Ornell was sitting on the old sofa where his mother used to sit.“Charlie, you’re back,” Ornell smiled warmly.“Grandpa, how’s Mom doing overseas?” Charlie hurriedly asked about his mother’s condition when he arrived.“Don’t worry, I’ve taken care of her. Nothing will happen to her!” Ornell smiled.“That’s good.” Charlie nodded relievedly.“Charlie, the auction held in the city of San Setillo tomorrow is very important for you. I came back here just because of this,” Ornell said.Charlie looked slightly surprised, “Even though this auction is important, it’s not necessary for Grandpa to come here like this, right?”“If it were just an auction, then it really wouldn’t be necessary. This auction is also about your war with the Visionary Group,” Ornell said.“Visionary Group?” Charlie muttered.Charlie remembered. Rahil had told Charlie earlier that this auction would compete with the Visionary Group to acquire land.Therefore, this auction wa
Before discussing the auction, Ornell visited Charlie in San Setillo, also gifting Charlie two trillion dollars.Charlie hadn’t used much of the money yet. If needed, he could also use the money.When all of this was added up, it totaled five trillion.With so much money at his disposal, Charlie was confident that in this auction, he could use it to finish off the Visionary Group.Royal Grand Hotel.From nine in the morning, all kinds of luxury cars had entered the Royal Hotel parking lot one by one.In the parking lot, Mercedes-Benz, Porsche, Bentley, all kinds of luxury cars gathered.People passing by were surprised to see so many luxury cars lined up. They couldn’t help but wonder what day it was and why so many luxury cars were gathered.All of this, of course, was because of the auction being held today; half of the business leaders in San Setillo were gathered here.Those with total assets of less than 200 billion did not qualify to enter.At this moment, a black Mercedes pulle
