Bradley is pulling his hair again. His life hasn't improved at all since he ran away from Thea and Liam that day.
If anything, it's getting worse.
He is still living in fear, under constant stress. And when he's stressed, gambling is the only release he has. Then he loses, owes more money, and adds even more stress to his life.
The vicious cycle continues.
Ryan Blackwood may have run away from Arvion, but that doesn't mean he has stopped calling and nagging Bradley. He still does. Now, he even calls more than twice a day.
When Ryan first disappeared, Bradley loved it. Ryan didn't contact him at all. But after a few days, the calls started again. More frequent. More aggressive.
Ryan keeps demanding that Bradley somehow get money from Thea Montrose.
"Blackmail her! She lived with you for five days. Don't tell me you don't have anything on her!"
"You should at least have a video or photo of her naked or something!"
Ryan sounded malicious.
