No longer a pushover

Noelle and Cedric Chapter 86

"I'll be starting school in two months and won't have a fixed schedule for streaming every day," Noelle explained over the phone.

Firestorm's representative responded, "That's no problem! We can adjust the terms, so you only need to stream on weekends. We'll have no requirements for weekdays. How does that sound?" Noelle was surprised. She couldn't believe that they were willing to be that flexible.

"I'll think about it," she said.

"Our streaming platform is very competitive. Don't let the people at Starlight mislead you. We saw they offered you 500 thousand dollars, right? We're ready to double that one million dollars a year. What do you think?" Noelle felt tempted. "That's a great offer. Let me consider it and get back to you later."

After ending the call, she left the study. Cedric was sitting on the couch with his phone in hand.

On the other end of the line, a voice said, "Sir, the executives at Firestorm have been instructed as you requested-"

Hearing Noelle's footsteps, Cedric promptly hung up and looked up at her. "There are fruits on the table."

Noelle's throat felt slightly dry, so she grabbed the fruit platter. "Firestorm just called. They're willing to let me stream only on weekends and even offered a one million signing bonus."

"They see your potential. Signing you is a smart investment."

Noelle was in a good mood. "That solves my tuition fees and living expenses."
