“Huh?”
“Dylan told me that the landlord originally didn’t intend to rent the place to Nick in order for him to
continue operating his martial arts training center there. He told me that Nick had to beg the landlord to
agree to rent him the place, but Dylan didn’t tell me that the rental contract that the landlord had with
them had a deadline.”
Cameron gave the matter a thought. “But the landlord said that the lease is only viable for 15 years, and
there are still 5 years left. This means that no matter whether the training center causes trouble, the
rental contract will still be revoked.”
Wayne’s eyes shifted away from her, and he pursed his lips tightly and did not utter a single word.
Cameron wrapped her arms around his neck and shoved her face right up to his. “What Dylan said
doesn’t really match with what the landlord said, but I don’t think Dylan would lie about the training
center.
“Apart from that, the landlord introduced us to the store enthusiastically, and the main thing is that the
store is new and huge, the surroundings and environment are excellent, and the location is better than
what we currently own.
“Now you tell me. The place was a beauty salon that had been operating in that location for six years, so
even if it moved out, someone should’ve taken over the store almost instantly. Is it possible that a store in
such an area will be left vacant?”
The store was located in a commercial region of the city, so no matter how slow and dumb she was, she
would never believe that stores located in such a location would stay vacant for such a long time. It wasa three–story building that had such a large space and complete facilities–it was more than enough for
someone who wanted to take over this location and open up a restaurant.
Wayne cleared his throat. “The location is remarkable, but the problem is that the rent is exorbitant, so
it’s sometimes normal for such properties to stay vacant for a while.”
Cameron was still skeptical. “Is that so?”
Wayne sneered and kissed her. “Otherwise, do you think that everyone who’s into business just doesn’t
care about the cost, breakeven, and the economics? Some people might miss such a great place only
because they hesitated. Some others might miss it because they wanted to wait for their cash flow to
come in. As for those who can make such a steep purchase to get their hands on such a place, they’re
most probably operating on the income that they get from other chain stores.
“If you want to get this place for a private business, it depends on how much cash you have in hand, as
well as various expenses and the time needed for your bank to approve your loan. It’s not an easy task.”
Cameron rested her cheeks in her palms and propped her elbows against the desk. “Is it really not you?”
He gave off a helpless smile. “You don’t even allow me to help you out. Do I look like someone who’s
looking to significantly decrease my lifespan?”
‘I don’t consider myself as someone who’s contributed to her search. I only found her a good store.‘
Cameron kissed him abruptly.
Waylon was startled for a split second but then grasped the back of her head and intensified the kiss.
The next day, in the martial arts training center…
Cameron talked to Nick about the new storefront. Nick lifted his gaze and stared at her. “Actually, you
don’t have to help me out.”Cameron crossed her arms and leaned back into the couch. “I admit that I’m the one who’s led those
men to the training center, and Dylan also told me that you’ve invested all your savings in the training
center. That’s why you’ve been living here throughout all these years.
“Losing this place means you won’t be able to start another training center for quite some time, and if
that’s the case, I can’t compensate for your loss. I can always compensate you with more money, but
with the time and energy you’ve spent on this place, I don’t think I can ever pay you back.”
Nick stared at her for a long time and then took a sip from the thermos on the table. “I’m not so poor that
I need you to pay for a new location.”
“I didn’t pay for it.”
He paused for a bit and frowned.
Cameron continued. “Conroy and Harold shared the payment. Although Conroy is a little arrogant and
unreliable, he’s a loyal lad. As for Harold, he owns a huge network of connections. When the new martial
arts training center opens up for business, the two of them will be placed in charge of the place, and with
that, we won’t be getting into any more trouble in the future.”
After saying that, she added, “At least we won’t attract any more trouble, and we won’t get thugs
knocking on our doors every now and then too.”
Seeing that Nick was silent, Cameron stood up. “If you want to go back to Southeast Eurasia and
develop your career over there, you can always transfer the ownership of the training center to me.
There’s no need for you to close it down.”
