Bradley laughed, “Come on, Cameron really needs the money. Just help him out, okay?”
Eric said, “I’ve already told Leanne to go back and revise the contract. I’ve done my good deed.”
Eric wondered, Just think of it as making up for breaking them up.”
“You’re the best, bro,” Bradley said while heading out.
Eric called after him, “Where are you going?”
Bradley replied, “You think you can fall asleep with me hanging around?”
Erie said, “Fair enough.”
He told himself, ‘Exactly, what difference does it make if Bradley stays now? At most, I’ll just spend the night here, I’ll have to leave tomorrow. There are only a few more days left. Nothing should go wrong”

Leanne was back soon, with the new contractin hand.
Bradley was sitting in the living room, reading a book
Even though his grades were good and he was confident about getting into his dream college, with the college entrance exam just days away, he figured it was safer to keep reviewing.
“Brad. Leanne walked in, her heels clicking on the floor.
Bradley looked up at her. “Leahne, you brought the contract?”
Leanne nodded, “I did. Where’s Eric?”
“He’s taking a nap. Let me take a a look at the contract first,” Bradley said.
“Alright.” Leanne bent over and set the contract in front of Bradley.
Bradley froze for a second. Leanne was wearing a black V-neck suit dress, and when she leaned forward, a lot of skin was on display.
Bradley couldn’t help but have a glance, and his face turned a bit sour.
“Ms. Starling, can I give you a suggestion?” Bradley said.
Leanne nodded. “Go ahead”
“Don’t you think your outfit today is a bit inappropriate?”
Leanne wondered, ‘My outfit? I’ve always dressed like this. What was wrong with it? Even Eric has never said anything about my outfit.”
Leanne was confused. “Brad, could you be more specific?”
Bradley said, “Ms. Starling, I don’t care how you dress around my brother, but Cameron is still in high school. Isn’t it a bit inappropriate to show off your frame like that in front of him?”
Leanne wondered, “When did lever do that? It’s not my fault that I have curves. I look good in anything, okay? Should I wrap myself up from head to toe? Is Bradley just picking on me for no reason? When did lever offend him?”
“Ms. Starling, there’s nothing else for you here. Go wait in the car. If my brother needs you, he’ll call you,” Bradley said.
Although targeted by Bradley, Leanne still wore a decent smile. After all, he was her boss’ brother, and she couldn’t afford the consequences of psor him.
“Okay, Mr. Bradley Saunders. Having said that, Leanne walked off in her high heels.
She got back into the car and sent a message to Erk, telling him the contract had been delivered and she’d rest in the car for a bit-just call her if he needed anything
Bradley picked up the contract and read it word by word.
With Eric running such a large listed company, there must be a professional team of lawyers to draw up these contracts,
The contract terms had no loopholes for Noir Eclat, but for Cameron, some terms were rather unfair.
Even so, it wasn’t that important. Since Eric had agreed to a 30-70 profit split with Cameron, Bradley naturally couldn’t ask for more.
Bradley messaged Cameron, Bradley: [I’ve read the contract. It’s fine. Come down when you’ve rested. Eric is still napping!
Cameron: Okay, thanks, Brad.]
Bradley-[You don’t have to.
Cameron: Oh, okay.]
In reality, Eric hadn’t slept at all-he simply couldn’t. As soon as he received Leanne’s message, he immediately went downstairs.
Just after Bradley sent the message to Cameron, he saw Eric coming down. “You woke up so soon?” Bradley said.
Eric smiled and said, “Yeah, I’m not used to sleeping in a strange bed.”
Bradley asked, “What do you want to drink? How about coffee?”
Eric nodded.
Bradley stood up and said, “Let me make it for you.”
Eric looked at him appraisingly and said, “Why are you being so attentive?”
Bradley smiled and said, Tm your brother. Making you a cup of coffee is the least I can do.”
Eric smiled and said, “Thanks.”
He thought some things were better left unexposed. Sugarcoated beauty was better than real ugliness.
While making coffee, Bradley book the opportunity to message Cameron to come down. He also made a cup of coffee for Cameron.
Looking at the dark coffee, Cameron frowned slightly and said, “Brad, is there any sugar?
Bradley said, “Yes, I’ll go get it”
“Hasn’t this house been rented to Cameron Eric asked with a smile. “Brad, why do you seem more familiar with it?”
Both Bradley and Cameron were somewhat at a loss for words.
Cameron stood up and said, “Brad, I’ll go find the sugar myself.”
Bradley said, “It’s in the third cabinet in the kitchen.”
Okay,” Cameron responded,
Bradley sat down and said, “Eric, I forced you to change the profit split. If you have any grievances, take them out on me.”
Eric blinked, confused about why his playful remark had turned into perceived dissatisfaction with Cameron.
Seeing Bradley defend Cameron, n. Eric felt something was wrong. So he decided that as soon as the SAT was over, wer, he’d find ways to send Bradley abroad.
Eric smiled and said, “You’re mistaken. I like Cameron too. He’s so talented in design. Even if learn less, I have to build a good relationship with him, lest he become my competitor in the future. We should think long term, right?”
“Brad, do you really think I agreed to that profit split just because of you?” Eric raised an eyebrow slightly.
Bradley said indifferently, “Well, you do have a good taste.”
Eric smiled.
Cameron came back with the sugar and asked Eric, “Eric, do you want sugar?”
AE
Eric shook his head and said, “Thanks, I’m good.” He never added sugar to his coffee.
So Cameron sat down, poured two packets of sugar into her coffee, and stirred gently with a spoon.
Bradley knew Cameron liked eating sweets, so he wasn’t surprised.
Eric was a bit taken aback, but he said nothing, lest Bradleys at him later.
Holding his coffee cup, Eric took a slow sips, then set it down and handed Cameron the contract on the coffee table, saying “Cameron, take a look at this?
Cameron said, “I can sign it directly.”
Eric smiled and said, “Trust me that nach, huh?”
Cameron smiled and said, “I trust Brad.” She figured if Bradley had checked the contract, it must be okay.
Eric narrowed his eyes, increasingly convinced he couldn’t let Bradley and Cameron grow closer.
“Oh, by the way,” Cameron had just picked up the pen when she remembered something important. “Eric, my ID is being rescued. I don’t have it right
