Chapter 131 

After Cameron and Francis left, Carlisle went to the second floor. 

The computer supplier, Winston Sanders, was installing the computers with his apprentice. When he saw Carlisle, he stopped and beamed. “You’re back, Mr. Zahn!” 

His apprentice pulled out a packet of cigarettes from his pocket and held one out to Carlisle. “Have a 

smoke.” 

Then, Winston introduced Carlisle to the person next to him. “This is my new apprentice, Jake Horton.” 

Jake looked to be about 18 or 19. He had earrings, and his hair had been dyed white. He even had a tattoo of a scorpion on his neck as well as a few more scattered over his arms. It was hard to have a good first impression of him. 

“Thanks, but I don’t smoke.” Carlisle turned Jake down with a smile. 

Jake frowned. “Are you gonna be that rude, Mr. Zahn?” 

He felt that Carlisle should have taken the cigarette even if he didn’t smoke. It felt like an insult to him. 

otherwise. 

“I honestly don’t smoke. Those cigarettes don’t come cheap; you’ll just be wasting one on me,” Carlisle 

explained. 

He was starting to get mad. He was the boss, and he’d hired Winston for a job. 

If even Winston was so polite to him, why wasn’t Jake? And how could he think Carlisle was being rude. just by refusing to accept the cigarette? 

Sunny noticed Carlisle’s temples throbbing a little. Earlier, in the car, he seemed to have caught Carlisle breaking up with Wanda. Carlisle had been glum since then, so Jake was just getting himself in trouble. 

“How can you talk to Mr. Zahn like that, Jake?” Winston glared at Jake. 

Then, he explained awkwardly, “Don’t mind him, Mr. Zahn. He’s my nephew, and he comes from a single- parent family. No one’s ever had the time to raise him properly, so he’s picked up a few bad habits…. 

Jake and Carlisle were the same age. Jake had always been a bad student, so he hadn’t gotten into university. Under his mother’s insistence, he’d come to the city to learn how to deal with computers from 

Winston. 

But since his arrival in Riverland, he’d gotten to know some hooligans and ruffians. That was why he’d dyed his hair and gotten tattoos, Winston didn’t know what to do about it. 

Carlisle didn’t intend to stoop to Jake’s level. Winston was Ivan’s relative, and Jake was Winston’s. They were all acquaintances, so there was no need to make things too awkward between them. 

Besides, his game studio was just starting out. If things went smoothly, he would continue expanding the company over the next three to five years. That meant he and Winston would have to work together for some time.

At that thought, Carlisle smiled perfunctorily. “It’s fine. Get back to work. With any luck, all the computers 

will be installed by- 

“Take the cigarette!” Jake cut Carlisle off. 

“Fuck you!” Sunny’s blood pressure rose. He kicked Jake while Carlisle grabbed Jake by the hair and punched him. 

“Fuck! I’ll kill you!” Jake had been a bully in school, so he was used to being the one doing the beating. 

No one had ever treated him like this before. Now that two people were targeting him, he immediately started fighting back. 

Back in school, Carlisle had also been good in fights. He didn’t hesitate to throw punches, and he seemed to be using this fight as a way to vent his frustration. He put all his strength into every punch. 

As for Sunny, he was 25 years old and in much better condition than Jake. This was his first time getting into a fight, but that didn’t mean he went easy on Jake. 

“Mr. Zahn, please! Please stop!” Winston hurried forward to break up the fight, but Carlisle pushed him 

away. 

Jake was only one person, while Carlisle and Sunny were working together to pummel him. He eventually curled up on the floor and protected his head with his arms as he spat expletives at them. 

“Mr. Zahn, you’ll kill him at this rate!” Winston threw himself over Jake to protect him. Only then did Carlisle and Sunny stop.
