Chapter 27
Kade frequently got caught surfing the internet and always used Carlisle as his cover.
As a result, Hayley harbored many negative opinions toward Carlisle.

The internet cafe was divided into two floors. Each floor was equipped with more than 30 large computers.
The first floor bustled with activity. Numerous elementary and high school students occupied each.

In this era, smartphones had yet to emerge, and cell phones had just begun to circulate. Thus, computers were considered a novelty.
Computer games were especially favored among teenagers.
"Boss, is there any space upstairs?"
Carlisle took out a few ten-dollar bills from his pocket.
The internet cafe's owner was a thin man and had a cigarette in his mouth. He tilted his head and glanced at the pair. "How many do you need?"

The internet cafe was crowded as it was the summer vacation. Carlisle was concerned there wouldn't be any space later, so he reserved one for Sean in advance.

Even with a price increase, it shouldn't be this outrageous, right?

Kade faked a cough. 'Carl, can you lend me these four dollars? I want to get a pack of cigarettes...
"Smoking is harmful to your health. Avoid it if you can," Carlisle politely rejected Kade.
The kid wasn't even 18 yet. Carlisle had to lead him to the right path.
"Never mind if you don't want to lend money to me. So stubbom."
Kade's expression shifted swiftly, like pages turning book. After he handed Carlisle the two cans of Coke, he headed to his computer to wait.
"Boss, are there any computers left?" Sean pushed the door curtains aside and entered, panting.
"There's no-" The owner didn't even bother to look up at Sean.
"I've already set up the computers. Let's go! Carlisle handed a can of Coke to Sean.
"Damn. Why are you here so early?" Sean looked at Carl in surprise.
"I have nothing to do after dinner, so I came early, Carlisle explained casually.novelbin
The duo went upstairs together.
The ceiling on the second floor was low, and the space was cramped! Even with four fans blasting at full e

Carlisle.
Once the computers booted up, Carlisle skillfully clicked on the penguin icon on the desktop.
