Chapter 156

Carlisle chuckled. “I did cause inconvenience to everyone today, so it’s normal for you to complain.”

After a quick chat, Carlisle lay on his bed and took out his phone to reply to Logan’s message..

“Tomorrow, I’ll have someone send the money over. You don’t need to worry!”

Logan had called Carlisle to inquire about the employees‘ salaries half an hour ago.

At that time, Carlisle was still eating, and the restaurant’s environment was too noisy. Logan could not

clearly hear what he said despite shouting for a while.

“Okay, Mr. Zahn!” Logan quickly replied to the message.

Carlisle continued to ask, “How’s the progress on the project?”

Logan responded, “These days, both Mr. Quilton and I have been recruiting to expand the research

and

development team.

“Mr. Quilton has been working tirelessly. We’ve already made dozens of conceptual diagrams for

operating systems. You can come and refer to them next year!”

Carlisle replied, “Alright, notify the company employees. We’ll pay them their salaries at around 8:00

pm

tomorrow!”

Riverland University was two hours away from Stoneville, so that little time during lunchtime at noon

was

not enough.

After ending the conversation with Logan, Carlisle opened MSN messenger.

It had been a long time since Sean talked to him. Surely, he wasn’t still angry, right?

Carlisle opened Sean’s chat window and sent a message. “Sean, are you still mad?”

Sean: “No, I’m not. I’ve just been busy these days.”

Carlisle: “How busy can you be? Don’t you even have time to send your best friend a message?”

Sean: “Go to hell. I’m busy dating!”

Carlisle typed several question marks in response.

Sean sent a grinning emoji. “Didn’t you say Lily and I were destined to be together? So, I’m asking her

out!”

Carlisle: “Did she agree?”

Sean: “Yeah, after my heroic rescue last time, any girl would have fallen for me, right?”

Carlisle: “Alright, then I wish you both well!”

Sean: “How about you and Wanda?

Carlisle replied with a tearful emoji. Talking about it brings tears to my eyes!

Sean: “Let’s not talk about that. Let’s talk about making money instead. Are you planning to kick me

out?”

Carlisle: “Don’t talk nonsense. That’s not happening!”

Sean: “Wasn’t it because you looked down on me that you left?”

Carlisle felt speechless.

In that situation, refusing to compromise would only make things worse. He might even end up with a

stain on his record or, worse, be sent to solitary confinement.

Sean seemed to also realize his mistake.

Sean: “I was a bit impulsive at the time, and maybe I had a bit too much to drink. Actually, I’ve been

wanting to apologize to you!”

Carlisle: “That’s good to hear. Let’s meet up this weekend, and I’ll show you a way to make money!”

Sean: “Show me a way?

Carlisle: “Why? Can’t I join you in making money?”

Previously, Sean thought that Carlisle was still holding a grudge and didn’t plan on involving him in

making money anymore.

Carlisle: “Let’s talk about it later.”

Carlisle couldn’t be bothered to explain, so he exited the chat interface after replying to this message.

At that moment, Shane entered with two large bags of snacks. The roommates rushed over to grab

them.

Carlisle lay on his bed with a pensive expression, crossing his legs.

What kind of money–making opportunity should he find for Sean?

If everything went as planned, his first–generation smartphone would be launched next year. The

internet era would also enter the public’s view ahead of schedule.

Suddenly, a bright idea flashed through Carlisle’s mind. Sean could work on the SociableNet!
