The Peremptory Casey Davies novel Chapter 411

"You're still awake. I thought that you had fallen asleep." Edith turned her head. Under the moonlight, she saw the profile of Casey.

Casey smiled, saying, "I also thought that you were asleep, so I said that to know if you were."

"No, I were thinking about something. Why weren't you asleep? Were you thinking about something? Why not tell me about it?" Edith said.

Casey took a deep breath and said, "In the not long future, I'll leave J City for a very secret place. I'm not sure when I'll be back. Besides, I might be in unknown danger in that place. I think it necessary for me to inform you of it now."

He didn't intend to conceal the fact that he was going to Guanling from Edith. After all, he wouldn't know how dangerous it was before he was in Guanling. Casey had not heard from Terence for so many years after Terence went to Guanling. He was confident in himself, but he was not sure what would happen. After all, he didn't know what it was like in Guanling.

He worried that he would not be able to come back after going to Guanling, just like Terence. Therefore, he had to tell Edith something before he left.

Hearing that Casey was going to leave home again, Edith became nervous. Moreover, judging from what Casey said, he might be in great danger this time.

Before, when Casey was away from home and was in trouble, he would tell Edith that he was fine. Now, Casey told her that he might be in danger. Judging from it, the danger he might be in was possibly beyond her imagination.

"Will you be in great danger? What are you going to do? Must you go to that place?" Edith asked.

Casey nodded, saying, "I might get some information about my father's whereabouts. Therefore, however dangerous it is, I have to go to that place. Don't worry. I'll try my best to come back alive. After all, I want to be with you in the future."

Hearing this, Edith gave up stopping Casey from going to that place. She knew that Casey had always wanted to find his father. If he couldn't do that, he would be troubled a lot and would be always thinking about it.

"Then, be very careful. If you can't find him, just give up. After all, you can go to that place many times in the future. It should be acceptable that you can't find him this time." Edith comforted him.

Casey nodded, not telling Edith the rumor that people were only allowed to go to Guanling and were not allowed to leave Guanling. He was not going to tell Edith that the place he was leaving for was somewhere secluded from the rest of the world. He just told her that he was going to a secret place.

"Later, I'll talk with Conor and Charles. After I leave, they would try their best to help you. Besides, I've asked Morgan to secretly protect you. Therefore, you won't be in any danger in the future." Casey went on.

Edith nodded. The harder Casey tried to protect her, the more she felt that she was useless. Such a feeling had been troubling her.

"Before, you wanted to have a talk with me, right? Tell me what you're thinking about recently." Casey turned his head and gave Edith a glance.

Edith narrowed her eyes, smiled and said, "Nothing important. I just wanted to talk with you about something about the company. It isn't important."

She was not going to tell Casey her feelings. Now, Casey was leaving for a dangerous place. It was useless to talk to him about it. It would only distract him from what he had to do.

Maybe it wasn't too late for her to tell Casey that after he came back. At most, she would suffer for some more time.

Hearing what Edith said, Casey didn't think about this matter anymore. He was tired from dealing with Lily, so he soon fell asleep.

Edith kept staring at Casey. She didn't close her eyes until she became sleepy in the midnight.

The next morning, Casey received a message from Conor.

"After getting up in the morning, Lily packed her belongings and went to the airport. She left for B City on the first flight."

Casey breathed a long sigh of relief. He knew that Lily didn't forgive him, but he really had no time to let her change her opinion of him. He had something more important to do.

It might be best that Lily took the initiative to go back to B City now.

No matter what, he didn't have the time to deal with these matters until he came back from Guanling.

In the next few days, he thought over what arrangements he should make for J City. Now, J City was completely under his control. Casey had taken control over the dark force and the economy. With Conor and Charles, who were capable, even if he was away from J City, nothing bad would happen in J City.

Only Amara was a risk. She might sometimes be out of her mind and do something harmful to Edith.

Casey knew that Amara didn't want to hurt Edith. However, being short-sighted and having a dislike for Casey, Amara always hurt Edith intentionally or unintentionally.

Therefore, Casey specially had a talk with Amara, warning her that he would kill her after he came back if she dared to get Edith into danger again.

Being afraid of Casey, Amara agreed. In her mind, she cursed Casey for many times. However, having been beaten by Casey once, she indeed dare not get Edith into danger anymore.

After making some arrangements in J City, Casey secretly returned to B City once and met Jordan. He told Jordan that he going to go to Guanling soon.

Now, as the head of the Davies family, Casey naturally had to make arrangements for the Davies family before going to Guanling. He told Jordan what to do if he really couldn't come back alive.

Soon, half a month passed. At night, Casey slept with Edith. After getting up in the morning, he left J City for S City.

Seeing that Casey had left, Amara entered Edith's bedroom with care. Sitting on the bed, she said while crying, "Edith, you know how Casey treated me recently. He didn't treat me as a person at all. No one would treat his wife's mother like that. Your marrying him is really a bad thing."

"Don't you think that his family is a little much more powerful than ours? What about divorcing him? However rich he is, if he doesn't respect me, I really don't want you to be with him."

Previously, Edith was lying in bed. Now, she directly sat up, pushed Amara and said unhappily, "Get out of here. It's all your fault. If you annoy me again, I'll treat you in the same way Casey did."

Amara looked at Edith with an aggrieved expression and cried out, "My God. My own daughter doesn't care about me anymore. You're even going to treat me like that. I can't stand it anymore. Why should I still be alive?"

Seeing that Amara acted like that, Edith directly covered her head with the quilt. Then, she covered her ears with her fingers.

Outside the room, Nicolas was eavesdropping. Hearing what Amara said, he was gloating.

Then he took out his battered wallet and opened it. There was an old photo in it. It was a picture of a baby wrapped by a piece of cloth. The baby was placed in a basket. Beside the basket were two garbage cans.

There was also a necklace beside the photo. It was a fine necklace with a word engraved on it. Probably because it was often touched over a long time, it was impossible to recognize the word.

Staring at the photo and necklace for a long time, Nicolas put his wallet away again. After shaking his head and sighing, he went to the balcony to play with the birds.

In a county of J City, a man and a woman were walking slowly on the street. They wore ordinary clothes, but they had temperament. If compared with people around them, it would be found that they were very different from people around them were hurrying to work.

Holding on to Eric's arm, Margaret looked at people going and coming, having some emotion.

She lived in this county with Eric for some time. It could be said to be the happiest time of her life. During this period, she didn't have to think about how to deal with the issues of her family or how to take revenge for Sasha. She didn't need to think about anything. She just lived an ordinary life like an ordinary people.

At this moment, her mobile phone rang. After taking it out and looking at it, her eyes became cold. Then, she stopped, turned her head and spoke to Eric, "Casey left J City again. I don't know the reason, but he will only be back after quite a long time."

Eric smiled and said, "Don't you think that we're living a good life? Why not give up? Casey has been the real head of the Davies family. He is too powerful for us."

There was a hint of murderous look on Margaret's face. She gritted her teeth, saying, "I must take revenge for my elder sister. Even if he's too powerful for me, I must make him pay a price. I will destroy the woman he loves most. It will thrill me even more than killing him. We do live a wonderful life now, but it isn't suitable for me. The only thing I have to do now is to take revenge on Casey."

After saying that, she walked forward quickly.

Looking at the back of Margaret, Eric helplessly shook his head. Finally, he could only follow her.

At the airport of B City.

A long-haul plane landed. Before long, a young man, who was in his twenties, came out of it. More than a dozen men in suits followed him. It was imposing.

Surprisingly, no one came out of this plane after them.

Only these people were in this plane. Undoubtedly, the airline would not operate at a loss. It only meant that these people had rented the whole plane.

The young man walked out of the airport with a weird smile. It could be seen that he was not an ordinary person only from his eyes.

He was actually like a wolf. Once he had an aim, he would expose his nature and tried his best to achieve his aim.

"young master, our target is the Davies family of B City. According to the order, we should give the Davies family a hard blow over business competition and make it decay." A man spoke to that young man. This man wore a pair of black-framed glasses, looking like a secretary.

"I naturally know it, but we don't have to do it now. We're new here. Before dealing with the Davies family, I'll get familiar with this city first. Besides, according to your investigation, the head of the Davies family, whose name is Casey, is in a little place called J City instead of B City, right? During this period, I'll have some rest. You'll go to J City and make some investigation first. Report to me after you know the situation. If possible, kill Casey. If we can directly kill him, there is no need to compete with him over business. It's easiest to destroy a family that has lost its head." The young man said.

The secretary wearing black-framed glasses immediately nodded at the young man and said respectfully, "Yes, young master."
