The Man in Power After Being Married into Her Family novel Chapter 17

Sabrina hurriedly put on a coy smile and said to Charlie in a flattering voice, "Class rep, welcome to Shangri-La. It's our honor for you to visit us and it's also my pleasure as your former collegemate. Please come in..." 1

She assumed that her compliments and gentle tone would make Charlie forget her rude behavior towards him earlier. 1

Unfortunately for her, Charlie was not as kind as she thought he was.

Isaac gaped in surprise when he heard Sabrina's remark and quickly asked, "Lee, you're Mr. Wade's college mate?"

"Yes, yes!" Sabrina said frantically, "Mr. Wade was my class rep when we were in college, we're quite close!"

Isaac announced instantly, "Go to the president's office tomorrow. You'll be the HR manager of Shangri-La!" 3

In Shangri-La, the promotion from team leader to HR manager was at least a three-tier difference in ranking. Not only would her salary and welfare package increase by tenfold, but she would also control the manpower of most employees in the hotel. The HR manager was considered among the high-level executives at managerial level. 1

Sabrina was so thrilled when she heard his statement that she almost fainted.

Charlie uttered coldly, "Mr. Cameron, do you know what kind of relationship I have with Sabrina Lee?" 2

Isaac assumed that Charlie was displeased with the arrangement and immediately said, "Mr. Wade, I can promote Miss Lee to vice president if it pleases you!" 2

Charlie said abruptly, "I called Sabrina Lee for help because I didn't have a membership card, but out of nowhere, she insulted me for no reason and even urged the guards to beat me. Yet, now you want to promote her to vice president? What do you mean by that? Do you want to intentionally piss me off?" 3

Isaac felt blood drained off his body.

He had aimed his flattery in the wrong direction! 1

Next, the glare he pointed at Sabrina was filled with wrath and fury.

He swung his hand across her face and growled in great dismay, "How dare you offend Mr. Wade? Did you borrow your courage from a lion? You wish to die, don’t you?" 3

Sabrina was so frightful that she knelt down on the ground, shaking in great fear as she wailed and pleaded, "Mr. Cameron, I'm sorry, I'm so sorry.” 1

Isaac lifted his leg and kicked her fiercely, sending her a distance away, and shouted, "You ignorant b* tch! I'll teach you a lesson today about the price you

have to pay for offending Mr. Wade!"

He then turned to the security guards and shouted," Give her a good beating! Don't be merciful, destroy that plastic face of hers and make an announcement to the entire Aurous Hill that whoever dares to hire her would indicate that they're going up against me, Isaac Cameron!" 1

Sabrina was extremely scared. She pleaded hastily, "M r. Cameron, I'm sorry, please forgive me!"

Isaac's face blushed in a hot red shade as he shouted," Now you know that you're sorry, huh! What drained your brain earlier? How dare you provoke Mr. Wade? If it’s not because of him, I'd kill you right now!"

Tears drenched Sabrina's face. Kneeling on the ground, she crawled in front of Charlie and bowed vigorously. "Mr. Wade, I’m sorry, I'm so sorry! I beg you, please, for the sake of our friendship...”

Charlie glanced at her coldly and said, "Sabrina Lee, we’re friends, but why did you insult me and my wife just now?”

"Class rep, I was out of my mind just now. It's all because of my filthy mouth, please forgive me...”

"I wouldn't attack unless I'm attacked first. Since you've attacked me, I'll never spare you! You left me no choice!"

Charlie then snorted in dismay. "Take a dose of your own medicine, you ignorant woman!"

Isaac growled, "B*tch! Don't you dare pester Mr. Wade again, I'll tear your mouth off your plastic face!" 1

Sabrina didn't dare to speak another word. She knelt o n the floor and wept bitterly.

Charlie ignored her completely. He looked at Isaac and said flatly, "I want to talk to you about the Sky Garden, let's go to your office.”

Isaac nodded vigorously as he led the way. "Of course, Mr. Wade, please come this way!"
