Chapter 45

I had waited for this moment for a long time. Never had I felt this light and free in From this day on, I wouldn’t have to suffer Camille for the rest of my life.

my

life.

As I turned and walked away, I could still hear her furious roars. “Muttface, what are you talking about?”

“I’m sorry, Ms. Layton. My contract is up. I’m no longer an employee at Layton Group, which means you can never order me around again.”

“What did you say?”

I couldn’t be bothered to entertain her. I kept walking forward.

Camille immediately stood in my way and bellowed furiously, “Stand there! You are my lapdog, and I order you to stop walking. The nerve of you!”

The party hall erupted into an uproar, and everyone looked our way in shock. As I stood among the crowd, I was forced to endure their sharp, judgmental gazes. Countless intense glares were thrown my way.

I calmly raised my gaze and looked at Camille. My voice was icy as I spoke. “Camille, I believe I have made myself clear. Our contract has expired. For the past three years, I lowered myself to do your bidding, but I merely did it for your father, not you.”

She sneered. “Not me, huh? Well, you sure did it for money. You’re sorely mistaken if you think I’m not aware of it!”

I shot her a frigid look. My gaze was sharp and dangerous. She was so startled that she instinctively took a step back.

“You’re right. I did it for money, but you are free to ask why I needed to do it. I believe your father will give you the answer.”

Camille was stunned momentarily, but she recovered soon and said angrily, “Answer? You might’ve made it sound nicer than it is, but you’re still just doing it for money. Just come out and say it. Drop the freaking act!”

I chuckled coldly. “You’re right. I didn’t have to pretend at all. But here’s something you should know. I earned every single penny from the contract!

“For the past three years, I have made countless sacrifices and contributed in no small amount to the company. The shareholders saw it, and my conscience is clear.

“I have created far more value for Layton Group than what the company has given me!

“As for you…” I shot Camille a disdainful look. “I felt physically ill every time I had to look at you!

“Despite that, I fulfilled my duty and didn’t owe anyone anything. Lastly, from this point on, I’m no longer an employee at Layton Group. You don’t have the right to stop me either.” Camille was infuriated. Her delicate face reddened as she roared at me. “Muttface, h–how dare you talk this way to me?”

It would seem that she had never thought that would speak to her in this manner. As far as everyone was concerned, I was just the Layton family’s lapdog.

What happened didn’t just startle Camille. The others were taken aback as well. All of them were looking at me with shock and disbelief in their expressions.
