Bradley said, "Cameron, Eric is loaded. He's got more money than you can imagine. Losing a bit won't matter to him. But you? If you don't make money, you can't make it."

Cameron thought to herself, 'No matter how rich Eric is, he earns every penny Cameron felt that a seventy-thirty split is basically daylight robbery.'

reason for me to take advantage of him. Honestly,

After a long silence, Eric finally said, "Alright, for your sake, seventy-thirty. Cameron gets seventy, and I get thirty."

Cameron looked at Eric in shock. "Eric, are you serious?"

Eric nodded. "Yeah, I do like your works. I'm taking Brad's advice."

Bradley grinned. "Thanks, dude. Good things happen to good people. Trust me, you'll be happy for the rest of your life."

Eric raised an eyebrow. "Since when did you start praying for people?"

Bradley laughed. "Just now."

Eric was a bit speechless.

Cameron still felt bad and said, "Eric, let's just split it fifty-fifty."

Bradley said, "Cameron, you only see what Eric did. Don't you notice everything

I've done for you?"

Bradley thought, 'Did I argue for nothing just now?'

Cameron was at a loss for words.

Eric chuckled. "Brad, I finally get why Eddie said that to me."

Bradley looked curious. "What did he say?"

Eric just grinned. "Secret."

Bradley thought, 'Whatever, keep your secrets. Not like I really want to know anyway.'

Eric teased, "You still don't trust me?"

Bradley replied, "It's not about trust. Gotta follow the process, right?"

Eric caught a whiff of something delicious from the kitchen and said, "I'm starving. Let's eat first and talk later."

"Alright." Bradley agreed.

Cameron stood up. "I'll go check how things are coming along in the kitchen."

Eric called Leanne. "Come back. It's time for lunch."

Leanne was back in no time.

After she arrived, Eric said, "After lunch, head back to the office and get the contract ready. Change the profit split-make it seventy and thirty.

Leanne nodded. "Okay, Eric."

Bradley chimed in, "Cameron gets seventy, and you guys get thirty."

Leanne laughed. "Come on, Brad, you're joking, right?"

Bradley replied, "Ask your boss if I'm joking."

Eric shot Bradley a look, then turned to Leanne. "He's serious. We get thirty, and gets seventy."

Leanne was completely floored. She screamed inwardly, 'Oh my goodness! Did I hear it right? We get thirty, and Cameron gets seventy? You've got to be

kidding me.

'When has our company ever signed a contract this outrageous? Even the biggest-name designers only get a fifty-fifty split. Wasn't Eric originally planning to give Cameron a forty-sixty deal?

'How did it suddenly turn to seventy-thirty? But Eric looks completely serious. He's not joking around.'

Leanne could only nod. "Okay, Eric."

Cameron happened to come out just then with a plate of pastries. “Eric, it'll probably be another five minutes. Why don't you have some pastries while you wait?"

Eric said, "No worries. I can wait a few minutes."

He wasn't really into sweets anyway.

Cameron immediately noticed that Leanne didn't look quite right. She asked, "Ms. Starling, are you okay?"
