Chapter 1873


    Charlie stepped into the dining area of Shangri-La.


    The huge dining area at Shangri-La was indeed very empty today.


    Most of the waiters had also been evacuated.


    ording to Isaac, he was afraid that Carmen would get upset and frustrated if he left too many


    waiters working at the dining area. 6


    Charlie walked through the outer dining area before h e reached the Sky Garden, which was in the


    center of the dining area. At this time, all eighty-eight banquet tables in the Sky Garden’s banquet


    hall had already beenpletely removed and there was only one exquisite Western-style dining


    table left in the center o f the hall. 7


    Charlie did not even need to think about it to know that his aunt must have been the person who


    had instructed them to remove all eighty-eight banquet tables and chairs. 1


    So, he could not help but feel a little dissatisfied and disgusted.


    Although Charlie had not met his aunt yet, his aunt''s excessive and extravagant style of doing


    things really made him feel very disgusted.


    At this point, Charlie already had close to sixty billion dors in his bank ount but Charlie had no


    intention of showing off at all. 6


    Charlie not only felt that there was no need for such extravagance and waste of manpower and time


    just to have a meal, but he also felt that there was anything wrong at all if he were to eat some


    street food at a restaurant by the roadside, s


    Moreover, it was really impossible for Charlie to feel any kind of superiority just because his aunt


    had requested for the entire dining area in Shangri-La and in the Sky Garden to be emptied simply


    because she wanted to have a meal here. 3


    On the contrary, this made Charlie feel very repulsed and even more resistant.


    Charlie made his way to the only table in the Sky Garden apanied by Isaac.


    The dining table was about two metres long and one metre wide, with two seats ced at both ends


    of the table.


    Isaac personally pulled out the chair for one of the seats for Charlie before he said, "Sorry, Young


    Master. You will have to suffer a little grievance and wait here for a short while."

    Charlie nodded slightly before he said, "Okay then. You can get back to work. I can use my cell


    phone while I wait for her." 4


    Isaac hurriedly asked, "Young Master, would you like t o drink something first? I will get someone to


    prepare i t for you."


    Charlie replied, "Just give me a ss of water."


    "Okay, Young Master."


    Charlie sat at the dining table by himself as he continued fiddling with his cell phone. At this time, h


    e happened to receive a text message from Nanako that read: "Charlie-kun, what are you doing


    now?" 5


    Charlie smiled unknowingly when he saw her text message and he replied: "I am preparing to have


    dinner outside. What about you?"


    Nanako replied: "I just came back from the hospital. I was apanying my father at the hospital."

    After that, Nanako sent another text message: "Charliekun, did your wife like the ring that you got


    for her? Is the size of the ring appropriate for her?"


    Charlie replied: "She likes it. Thank you for helping m e try on the ring. The size of the ring is perfect


    for her."


    Nanako sent a smiling face emoji to Charlie before she said: "That''s simply perfect! It will be the


    new year in another four days, so I''d like to wish you a happy new year in advance, Charlie-kun!"


    Charlie smiled as he typed and replied: "Thank you! How is Mr. Ito recuperating and recovering so


    far?"


    Nanako replied: "The doctor said that he will be able to get discharged from the hospital after


    recuperating her for a few more days." 7 over to Nanako, a woman who was dressed very


    luxuriously walked in from the entrance of the Sky Garden, i


    "That''s great." As soon as Charlie sent these two words


    This woman looked like she was about forty years old. She was wearing custom-made limited-


    edition Chanel clothing and she had medium-length hair which was dyed blonde. She could not be


    described as having a beautiful appearance. Aside from having a cold and indifferent look on her


    face, she also gave people the feeling that she was a very mean and vicious person. 6


    This woman was Charlie’s aunt, Carmen.


    Carmen walked very quickly and she took vigorous strides beforeing directly to the dining table


    where Charlie was seated.
