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
“I don’t know about that. Besides, I’m not in the same industry as Enigma Enterprises. I haven’t investigated it carefully,” Shelton said.Immediately after that, Shelton asked, “Jaquon, why did you suddenly mention this new CEO? Does he have something special?”“Of course, the background of the new CEO is frightening,” Jaquon said with a smile.“Oh? Very frightening? I don’t know why you would say something like that.” Shelton seemed slightly curious.“The CEO of Enigma Enterprises’s San Setillo branch is Mr. Ornell’s grandson. Isn’t this status quite frightening?” Jaquon said with a smile.“What?!”“Mr. Ornell’s grandson?”After hearing the news, Shelton was extremely surprised.Shelton was well aware of how great a figure Ornell was. His grandson was certainly among the wealthy and influential.In Shelton’s eyes, Jaquon was already a wealthy next-generation. Compared to Mr. Ornell’s grandson, the difference was significant.“Unexpectedly, in the city of San Setillo, there’s someone
“Let’s go.”Telvis glanced bitterly at Charlie, then turned around and walked away quickly.After Telvis and the others left.“Mr. Charlie, I sincerely apologize for my foolish nephew causing trouble with you,” Gevin apologized to Charlie respectfully.“Mr. Gevin, you don’t need to feel embarrassed,” Charlie replied, waving his hand.Gevin greatly respected Charlie. Naturally, Charlie didn’t need to pick a fight with him.Gevin sighed with relief after hearing Charlie’s words.Regarding what happened here. Because it occurred outside and far from the auction room, coupled with the noise outside, the incident didn’t attract much attention. Especially from the big bosses inside the auction room.Including Lydia’s father, Shelton. Because Shelton was talking with Jaquon, he was completely unaware of Charlie’s presence here.Currently, Rahil came out of the bathroom.“Mr. Charlie, what happened?” Rahil asked, noticing the tense atmosphere at that moment.“It’s nothing. Just a clown.” Char
David muttered to himself. It had been a long time since anyone dared to challenge him directly. It had been a long time since anyone made him this angry.The rich kids and bosses who were spectators were even more surprised by what had just happened.“How great was that young man earlier that he dared to challenge Mr. David and make him so angry?”“Yeah. Who is he, really? So daring!”The rich kids and bosses who didn’t know Charlie were puzzled.“You guys are clueless! That young man is the new CEO of the Enigma Enterprises branch in San Setillo. Do you know his background? You’ll be surprised when I tell you.” A bald-headed boss who knew about Charlie’s background said with a smile.This boss who knew Charlie had attended a small party hosted by Charlie. So, he knew who Charlie was.“What background?” Everyone around looked very confused.“This new CEO is Mr. Ornell’s grandson!” the bald-headed boss replied.“Mr. Ornell’s grandson?”After everyone heard this, they couldn’t help but
Before arriving, Dasante had already reminded Shelton. Shelton had to be polite when meeting Charlie. As a result, Dasante didn’t think Shelton would behave like this after meeting Charlie.“Mr. Dasante.”Charlie waved to Dasante, signaling that Dasante didn’t need to speak anymore.Immediately after that, Charlie looked at Shelton, then smiled and said, “Mr. Shelton is Right. I am the new CEO of Enigma Enterprises. That’s right. I am Ornell Donovan’s grandson.”“But... but...” Shelton stared at Charlie. He was still a little confused.“At the edge of Lake yesterday, I told you that what you saw was just the surface of the lake. You didn’t know what the bottom of the lake was like. Just like when you met me. You only saw on the surface. In fact, you don’t know anything about me,” said Charlie casually.After hearing that, Shelton sighed deeply. He began to understand in his heart that Charlie was hiding his identity.Shelton thought carefully. With Charlie’s position, creating false i
“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
