Chapter - 160
Charlie nodded before he smiled and said, “I’ve come to meet all the Masters here today.”
A middle-aged man dressed in a long gown asked in surprise, “So, is this the buyer who bought the final treasure at the auction for one hundred million dollars?”
Finn smiled before he introduced Charlie to the crowd. “Yes, this is Mr. Wade.”
“What? Can he be considered a Master too?” Zeke asked as he glanced at Charlie disdainfully. After that, he smiled before he said, “It seems as though anyone can call themselves a Master nowadays. Any piece of trash on the street can also call themselves a Master. However, though Mr. Yaleman is truly a master, he is so humble and he always keeps a low-profile.”
The crowd of people felt very awkward as soon as Zeke finished speaking. Even though Zeke was belittling Charlie on purpose, everyone else agreed that Charlie could not be called a master, whether because of his age or the way he dressed. Almost all of the guests present here today were masters in the metaphysics world. Therefore, many of the guests felt that it was really inappropriate for Finn to call Charlie a master because that would place him on an equal footing with them.
At this time, Jack stood up before he smiled and said in a calm manner, “It’s okay. Calm down, everyone. I’d like to take advantage of this banquet to get to know each one of you better. I believe that all of us will know who the real Master who’s worthy of this title and reputation is at the end of the day.”
Everyone who was present could not help but stare at Charlie as soon as Jack spoke those words. What was this young man doing here today?
Jasmine could not stop herself from frowning at this time. She had already expected Jack to make Charlie a target in an attempt to get back at him. However, she did not expect the atmosphere to be so solemn as soon as they had arrived.
