Still Your Dog? No, I'm Gone novel Chapter 33

Chapter 33

“Max Wexler, open the door and get your butt out here!

“Why aren’t you saying anything? I’ll get someone to kick the door down if I have to. Don’t

test me!

“Open up, you coward!”

Camille’s furious yelling clashed with my neighbor’s angry protests.

“Why are you making a racket in the middle of the day? How are people supposed to have peace of mind?”

“You want peace of mind? Sure. Get Max to come out and see me now!”

“What does your grievance with him have anything to do with us? Moreover, it’s not like we know him very well.”

“Then, shut up and fucking bear with it. Stop yammering like a damned fool!”

“Geez, young lady. I wouldn’t have guessed you’d curse like this with how pretty you are.”

Camille kicked my door hard several times and screamed at the top of her lungs. “Open the

door now!”

Taking a deep breath, I opened the door and walked past her as if she weren’t there. She was immediately enraged when I treated her as if she were invisible. She stood in front of the elevator and stopped me from getting in.

I walked around her and headed for the stairs. When I arrived on the first floor, I saw her standing in front of the car with her arms crossed. She was staring at me icily.

“You’re not leaving without my say–so! Who gave you the right to hurt Kieran?

“I’m giving you an order now. Apologize to him this instant!”

I looked at Camille calmly and shook my head. “That’s not happening.”

“What? How dare you disobey me?” She was enraged.

Gnashing her teeth, she pointed at me and shouted viciously, “Max, you are just al the Layton family, and you’re expected to obey everything I say, no questions asked. You don’t have the right to talk back to me!

“You will do exactly what I tell you to do!”

To this day, Camille was still keeping me in line with such harsh words. I looked at her icily,

chuckled lightly, and nodded.

“Really? Fine, then.”

Chapter 33

I quickly pulled my phone out and dialed a number. “We’re having a shareholders‘ meeting at Layton Group in half an hour!”

I paused briefly and deliberately glanced at Camille, who was standing in front of me with an angry expression.

“I want everyone there.”

“Why, you!” Her face turned red with rage, and she gnashed her teeth. Benson was a major shareholder in Layton Group. As the deputy CEO, Camille had some of the shares as well.

Everyone on the board of directors had to attend the shareholders‘ meeting. If word got out about their absence, Benson would teach them a lesson they wouldn’t forget.

“You win this time!” Camille stomped her foot and snarled, “Let’s see what tricks you have up your sleeves!”

Then, she got into her car and drove off in a huff. I followed closely behind and arrived at Layton Group. As I sat in the conference room, I opened the proposal my assistant had submitted.

“The project at the new neighborhood in Northborough is easy to handle, and we have plenty of resources for it. I think it’ll fit Ms. Layton very well. Do we agree on it?”

All of a sudden, Camille banged the table and angrily shot to her feet. “I refuse to do it. Why should I?”
