Chapter 334
Xander stared at the screen, completely baffled. He thought, ‘What happened? Why did Cameron block me? We had a video call this morning site. because I didn’t send her the tutoring fee after the lesson? No way. He wouldn’t be that petty.”
Xander tried sending Cameron a few messages, but none of them went through. He sat back on the couch with a huff, tossing his phone aside and rubbing his short hair.
Xander thought, ‘I couldn’t reach Cameron. What should I do this afternoon anyway?‘
As dusk draped over the castle grounds, wrought–iron lamps flickered to life.
The weather was perfect, not cold or hot. By the lakeside, a small bonfire had been set up for a barbecue.
Cameron picked up a piece of marinated beef with tongs, placed it on the grill, and flipped it once. Then, she added some chicken wings next to it.
She glanced at the loaded food table beside her and frowned slightly, “Brad, do you think we overdid it? It’s just the two of us.”
Bradley glanced at the table. “This is barely enough for two guys.”
Cameron smiled awkwardly. She wasn’t a “guy“, and her appetite was modest.
Still holding the tongs, Bradley flipped the chicken wings without missing a beat. “No appetite?”
“It’s fine.” Cameron then recalled Eddie’s absence. “Where’s Eddie?”
“With his girlfriends,” Bradley replied.
Cameron nearly choked upon hearing this.
Pearl purred contentedly at their feet.
Soon, the beef started sizzling. Bradley served the first slice to Cameron.
“Thanks.” Cameron reciprocated with another piece.
The chef’s signature marinade was exceptional.
Cameron tilted her head thoughtfully. “Brad, the chef is pretty good. You paid highly for him, right?”
Bradley nodded. “Yeah. You’ll be spending more time here. He’s trained in multiple cuisines. You’ll never get bored.”
Cameron asked, “How much per month?”
Bradley paused mid–flip, looked at her for a long moment, then said, “7,000 dollars a month.”
Cameron raised an eyebrow. “Worth it.” She had expected more.
Bradley added, “The chef, plus four animal caretakers–their salaries are all included in the rent. You don’t have to worry about payroll.”
Cameron was surprised, thinking, ‘The rent covered five full–time staff members?‘
Now she understood why Eddie had given her that weird look last night. That was just…ridiculous.
“Chicken wings are done,” Bradley said, placing one on Cameron’s plate.

Cameron looked at him. “Brad, maybe you should requote me the rent.” Bradley helped her out so much, and she couldn’t take advant

Bradley took a bite of beef wrapped in lettuce before sighing, “Alright then. What do you think is fair?”
