Chapter 237 Three Million Dors
Cameron raised an eyebrow but stepped inside. From the look on William''s face, it seemed like he had good news for Cameron.
"Have a seat," William said, pointing to the leather chair in front of his desk. "What would you like to drink, kiddo? Juice or coffee?"
Cameron shook her head. "Mr. Drake, let''s just get to the point."
William poured her a ss of orange juice and set it in front of her. "I didn''t expect you to be so straightforward."
"I''m in the middle of ss," Cameron replied.
William paused, then quickly said, "Alright, I''ll keep it short."
Cameron was ready to listen to whatever he had to say.
William cut to the chase. "You yed a huge part in our victory in yesterday''s basketball game against Horizon Academy, so the school has decided to reward you with 300 thousand dors."
Cameron was stunned, thinking, ''Did a pile of cash just fall out of the sky?''
Then, she gave a light smile. “Thank you, Mr. Drake."
Seeing Cameron smile, William instantly grinned too. Originally, he''d only nned to give Cameron 150 thousand dors, just as a token gesture.
But after Xander mentioned that Cameron was strapped for cashtely, William changed his mind.
He already knew her family wasn''t as well-off as most at Langford Academy, but he hadn''t realized it was that bad. So, he doubled the reward on the spot.
William continued, "Also, kiddo, if you get the top score in this year''s SAT, the school will award you three million dors in cash and a house worth another three million. Sound good?"
Cameron was stunned. Although these rewards didn''t mean much to Langford Academy, with their annual tuition fee being 300 thousand dors, it was a lot to Cameron.
But she wondered the reason William had brought this up out of the blue.
Seeing Cameron stay silent, William asked, "What''s wrong? Do you think it''s too little?"
"No." Cameron shook her head. "It''s not that. I''m just curious why are you telling me this today, Mr. Drake?"
William smiled. "Isn''t the SATing up? I thought you could use a little motivation."
Cameron gave a polite smile that didn''t show her stance.
Then, William continued, "I''ll have the basketball prize money transferred to your ount tomorrow."
Cameron nodded. "Alright, thank you."
"That''s all from me. You can head back to ss now," William said.
With that, Cameron got up and left the office.
Meanwhile, William let out a sigh of relief. With his promise, he believed Cameron wouldn''t have to worry about money anymore, right?
At Cameron''s age, he should be focusing on his studies. If he was always thinking about making money, William was worried it would affect his studies.

On her way back to ss 15, Cameron couldn''t stop smiling. With Xander''s tutoring fees, the basketball prize money, and the exam reward, she was about to be rich.
She didn''t even have to stress about the two million dors needed to start her own pharmaceuticalpany more. Still, she had to keep hustling, as she still owed Bradley 15 million dors, and that was no small amount. When Cameron returned to ss, even Elijah could tell that she was happy. He passed her a note: [Did something good happen?]

Elijah was shocked. He thought, ''300 thousand

Elijah wrote: [Congrats.]
Cameron smiled in response.
After the evening self-study session, Cameron grabbed her phone and slipped out of ss, so Elijah could only watch her

leave.
Cameron headed straight for the underground parking lot, where Bradley would wait for her. Meanwhile, Xander rushed to ss 15 to catch Cameron, but she was already gone.
"Where''s that little punk?" Xander frowned at Elijah.
Elijah acted like he didn''t hear Xander and walked away, so Xander could only let it go.
