Chapter 248 I''m Your Son


    Cameron shifted closer to the window and said, "It''s probably just my body wash."


    Bradley asked, "Smells nice. What brand is it?"


    "I forgot. I''ll checkter and let you know."


    Bradley started the car. "I''ll drive you to Murphy Manor."


    "Thanks," Cameron replied.


    Right then, Xander called again, and Cameron hung up on him.


    Instead, she texted: [I''ll be there soon.]


    In response to that, Xander replied with a victorious emoji.


    An hourter, a sleek ck Mercedes pulled up in front of the luxurious Murphy Manor


    The housekeeper was already waiting at the door. She stepped forward, opened the passenger door with a polite smile, and said, "Mr. Wace, Mr. Murphy''s been expecting you."


    "Thank you." Cameron gave a slight nod.


    Bradley got out as well and handed the car keys to the housekeeper. "Could you. please park the car for me?"


    The housekeeper nced at Cameron. "Mr. Wace, and this is?"


    Bradley smiled. "Hi, I''m Xander''s roommate, Bradley Saunders."


    She looked a little confused, as Xander had only mentioned that Cameron would being. Still, she took the keys with a respectful nod. If Bradley were Xander''s roommate, it should be fine.


    Cameron looked at Bradley. "Brad?”


    Bradley chuckled softly and nodded, not bothering to exin himself.


    He was already here anyway, so he might as well head inside and have a cup of coffee.


    The moment Xander spotted Cameron, his face lit up, and he practically lunged forward. "You little brat, you finally showed up."


    But then he caught sight of Bradley behind Cameron, and his excitement vanished in an instant. "Oh, Brad, you came too."


    Bradley smirked. "What? Am I not wee?"


    Xander pulled a long face. "Of course you''re wee here. How could I not be?"


    "Are you two Xan''s ssmates? Come in and have a seat," Xander''s mother, Gwen, said warmly, getting up to greet them.


    Chapter 248 I''m Your Son


    Bradley walked over politely and extended his hand to Xander''s parents. "Hello, Mr. Logan and Mrs. Gwen. I''m Bradley Saunders, Xander''s roommate."


    Logan stood up and shook his hand, just as politely. "Saunders? That''s not amon surname. Where''s your family from, young man?"


    Bradley smiled. "My father is Nathan Saunders, and we''re from Steerfall." Logan''s expression changed immediately. "Nathan? We just had dinner togetherst month. Your family has so many boys, and I haven''t met you before, but you''re just as impressive as your eldest brother. Come on, have a seat." Bradley sat down. "Thank you."


    Logan asked enthusiastically, "So, where do you rank among your brothers?"


    "I''m the fifth."


    "I''ll call you Brad. And don''t bother with formalities. Just call me Uncle Logan," Logan said.


    He turned to the butler. "Go get my best red wine. I want to have a drink with Bradter.


    Bradley smiled. "Uncle Logan, you''re too kind. I came in such a rush that I didn''t even bring a gift. Sorry about that."


    Logan waved it off. "What gift? We''re all family here, and there''s no need to be so formal with us."


    "Dad, I''m your real son," Xander muttered in dissatisfaction.


    His dad was always so aloof, and Xander had never seen him this enthusiastic with


    anyone.


    ''Man, having a dad like Nathan really is something,'' he thought.


    Gwen nudged him gently. "Stop acting like a little kid. Go study with Cameron." Xander was speechless. ''A little kid? Seriously? I''m an adult, okay?''


    Still sulking, he rolled his eyes and trudged upstairs. Cameron followed, a little impressed by how effortlessly Bradley won the Murphy family over.


    Compared to Bradley, the two of them really did seem a bit childish.
