Of course, he hadn’t installed any cameras in the bathroom-he wasn’t that twisted.
If he wanted to see her, he’d do it in person.
Right now, Cameron was in the bathroom, so the only thing on the screen was the bed.
Bradley had picked out the bedding himself. He figured Cameron would probably like it.
Bradley’s lips curled into a smile as he stared at the screen, not looking away for a second.
Before long, Cameron came out of the bathroom.
She slipped into the same men’s pajamas she’d always worn here, even though she noticed the white women’s pajamas Bradley had specially set out for her.
Cameron turned off the lights, climbed into bed, and pulled the covers up over herself.
She thought she wouldn’t be able to fall asleep. But to her surprise, she drifted off almost immediately.
Cameron slept in a perfectly proper position, neat and composed. She barely moved a muscle. The feed was almost completely still. But Bradley still watched with great interest.
‘Cam is so close,’ he thought, even if it was just the next room over. He couldn’t help but feel content.
Meanwhile, at Steerfall International Airport, Gwer looked at Xander, her eyes brimming with tears. “Xander, do you really have to go?
In just a few days, Xander had lost so much weight that he looked like a completely different person. The sunshine that used to light up his handsome face was gone-now, he just looked defeated.
Gwen’s heart broke for him, and Logan’s brow was furrowed with worry.
Xander’s eyes were deep and heavy as he/said, “Mom, Dad, you should go back. Take care of yourselves.” His voice was low and full of sorrow,
As soon as Gwen heard his words, she couldn’t hold back her sobs anymore.
Logan wrapped his arm around her shoulders and said, “Xander, you’re alone out there, so take care of yourself, okay?”
Logan’s heart ached for his son, too. But maybe it was for the best-Xander could use some time abroad to toughen up.
Xander just wasn’t strong enough these days. It was just a breakup, and he was totally falling apart.
If he couldn’t even handle this, he would fall y when he ran into any real trouble. business empire.
Someone this weak couldn’t hold up the Murphy family’s huge bus
Only by growing stronger could Xander take on the that were his to bear.
Xander nodded, pushed his suitcase along, and walked straight through the gate without looking back. He didn’t want to stay here for even a second longer.
As for when he’d be back, maybe a few months, maybe years from now. He didn’t know.
Logan and Gwen stood there, watching as he disappeared from sight.
No matter how hard it was to let him go, they still respected Xander’s choice.
Bradley was really into watching the surveillance feed when a message from Elijah popped up on his phone.
He frowned, but in the end, he exited the feed and opened his chat with Elijah. But as soon as he saw Elijah’s message, his face darkened.
Elijah: [Brad, Cameron said she was meeting you for dinner tonight. I just tried texting her, but she didn’t reply. I called, and it went straight to voicemail. Are you two together? Is she okay?]
Bradley: [Elijah, you sure seem awfully concerned about Cam.]
Elijah: [Brad, is Cameron with you or not?]
Bradley: [No.]
‘Of course not,’ Bradley thought to himself. ‘She’s downstairs and I’m up here-just being under the same roof doesn’t mean we’re together, does it?’
Elijah: [You haven’t seen Cameron at all tonight?]
Bradley: [We did have dinner together.]
Elijah: (So she’s okay, right?]
Bradley: [Elijah, why didn’t you tell me when you found out Cameron was a girl?]
Elijah: [Huh? Didn’t you already know? Cameron said she told you. I was the last one to find out.]
Bradley was speechless. If he’d actually paid attention to what Cameron said back then, he wouldn’t have ended up being the last t
If he’d actually paid attention to what Cameron said back then, he wouldn’t have ended up being the last to know.
Elijah: [Brad, stop changing the subject. Is Cameron okay? I can’t get in touch with her
Bradley stared at Elijah’s message, and he could practically see how anxious Elijah was while sending it.
Elijah was always the cool, distant type.
A faint, almost imperceptible smile played at Bradley’s lips as he typed: [Elijah, you seem awfully concerned about Cam. Don’t tell me you actually like her?]
Elijah had always been straightforward. Since Bradley asked, he answered honestly without hesitation. [Yeah, Brad. I’m pursuing her.
Bradley’s eyes narrowed dangerously.
‘Elijah likes Cam?’ Bradley thought, a chill running through him. ‘Is he planning to compete with me for her?”
Bradley let out a cold, mocking chuckle. ‘No one is going to keep me from being with Cam. Not my parents. Not my family. Not even Cameron herself. Let alone Elijah,’ he wondered.
Bradley: [Elijah, you’re not allowed to go after Cam.]
Elijah was baffled. [Why?]
Bradley: [Because I’m pursuing her.]
When Elijah saw that message, he was so stunned he literally jumped up from the couch.
‘Brad?’ Elijah blinked in disbelief. ‘Brad likes Cameron, too?”
Elijah always knew Cameron had that kind of charm-no wonder people fell for her. ‘But seriously, is everyone in Room 316 falling for her now?” he thought.
Staring at Bradley’s message, Elijah was still reeling, but he frowned and typed back. [Brad, I’m honestly shocked you’re after Cameron, too. We might be friends, but I’m not giving up. May the best man win.]
“Compete?” Bradley smirked, his eyes glinting with a dangerous amusement.
Bradley: [Elijah, try to take Cameron from me and you’ll seriously regret it.]”
‘No way. Did Bradley really just say that?’ Elijah wondered and stared at the screen in disbelief.
‘Bradley is so gentle. And now he’s talking this crazy? Is this even the same person? Was it really Bradley I’m talking to?’ Elijah wondered.
To make sure, Elijah shot him a video call.
Just when he thought Bradley wouldn’t pick up, Bradley’s familiar face popped up on the screen.
“Brad?” Elijah was taken aback. Yeah, it really was Brad. But Elijah felt like Bradley was a totally different person now.
Bradley stared at him through the screen, that signature faint smile still on his lips, but his eyes were almost completely cold.
“Elijah, let me give you some advice-don’t bother wasting your time trying to take Cameron from me,” Bradley said, his tone as calm as ever. But the words were downright domineering.
Elijah’s instincts were spot on. It really was like Bradley had turned into a completely different person. The face was the same. But his personality was a whole different story.
The Bradley Elijah used to know was all elegance and warmth. The man in front of him now was so overbearing that it was almost r
“Are you really Bradley?” Elijah still couldn’t believe it.
It had only been a few days since they last saw each other. Elijah was surprised Bradley had changed this much. Bradley’s lips curled into a smile, but his voice was icy cold. “Elijah, seems you and Cameron are both wondering the same thing.” “Cameron?” The moment he heard her name, Elijah’s worry spiked. “Br-” He started to say Brad, but the word caught in his throat.
“Bradley, where’s Cameron?” Elijah asked.
Bradley replied, “She’s at my place.”
“Your place?” Elijah frowned. “So you lied to me earlier when you said she wasn’t with you?”
Bradley replied, “She’s in her room and I’m in mine. That hardly counts as being together, does it?”
Elijah frowned. “It’s so late. Why is Cameron still home?”
Bradley arched an eyebrow. “Why don’t you take a wild guess?”
Elijah caught the smug look on his face and said seriously, “Bradley, don’t think you can fool me. Cameron already told me she doesn’t want to date anyone.”
