Chapter 264
The atmosphere inside the villa was tense.
Max looked at Cameron, a hint of anger swirling in his deep, aged eyes. “Young friend, this is my final warning. If you’re here to celebrate, you’re welcome to stay. But if you’re here to cause trouble, don’t blame me for being inhospitable.”
“Inhospitable?” Cameron’s lips curled into a cold smile. His icy gaze was fixed on Max. “You’re the one who calls the shots around here, right?”
“Indeed,” Max responded gravely.
“Then you’d better take your family and get out of my mother’s villa,” Cameron pointed to the exit, issuing an eviction order.
The villa fell silent. Everyone looked at Cameron in shock as they were astonished by what he said. “Do you even understand what you’re saying?” Max stared at Cameron. His anger was rising
“Of course, I do,” Cameron said fearlessly while meeting Max’s gaze. “I’m merely reclaiming what belongs to my mother.”
“Your mother?” Max frowned.
“Yes.” Cameron’s voice was icy.
“May I ask your mother’s name?” Max inquired.
“Angela Greer,” Cameron replied.
“Angela!” Max’s pupils contracted sharply. He immediately realized something significant.
“It seems you do know her,” Cameron noted with the chill in his eyes intensifying.
Max exhaled deeply. He then addressed the guests with an apologetic tone, “My apologies, everyone. As you’ve seen, my family has some private matters to settle with this young man. Please excuse us.”
“We wouldn’t dream of intruding, Mr. Zimmer Senior!” The guests quickly excused themselves, shaking their heads as they left.
Disrupting Max’s birthday celebration was utterly tactless, regardless of Cameron’s grievances with the Zimmer family.
Some guests recognized Cameron as Laura’s recent favorite. He now represented her interests in Yrando. Yet, they doubted whether even Laura could afford to disregard Max, especially given his alliance with the powerful Xander family and Alan being Laura’s fiancé.
They deemed Cameron’s actions as a death wish.
Once the guests had departed, Max’s expression darkened. “Close the doors!” he commanded, and the villa doors shut firmly.
