The Peremptory Casey Davies novel Chapter 81

As the people of the Patel family, who had been raging, saw Francis coming, they immediately fell silent and all took a few steps back.

They came to Amara's house without Francis' permission. From what Francis just said, it seemed like he would support Casey. So, no one dared to walk ahead at this time.

The relatives, who were the most excited before, instantly became like ostriches and hid behind others.

Seeing that the visitor was Francis, Nyla was nervous. Thinking of that she had just said Francis was ungrateful, she was scared and her legs were weak.

Francis knew the truth of this matter. That day, he specifically told her not to interfere in the company's affairs. Now that she had incited so many people to trouble Casey, Francis would definitely not let her go.

What's more, she just spoke out of turn to Francis. She was afraid that just because of this, Francis would be furious.

"Grandpa, why are you here? This place is so shabby. You'd better go back to the villa and rest." Nyla quickly said.

Francis stared at Nyla with a gloomy face. He had intended to come here today and asked Casey to go to the TY Group again to save this cooperation.

For the sake of this cooperation, he had decided to drop his pride to and come to find Casey, a trash. In his opinion, coming to Casey in person was a great honor for Casey.

But what Francis didn't expect was that Nyla brought so many people to Amara's house to force Casey and Edith to divorce. Nyla even put her blame on Casey, which made Francis feel that Nyla didn't take his words seriously and ignored his authority.

Besides, Nyla said that he was ungrateful just now. As the most powerful person in the Patel family, Francis naturally couldn't tolerate such things.

He glared at Nyla, then raised his hand and slapped Nyla.

This was the second time Francis slapped her. But Nyla didn't dare to resist at all.

When the Patel family's relatives saw this scene, they were all shocked, wondering if Francis had changed his temper. He usually favored Nyla. But now, he slapped her.

"It seems that my punishment for you is not severe enough. Did you forget what I told you? You dare to come here to make trouble. Do you want to be kicked out of the Patel family?" Francis said in a cold voice.

Nyla's face became pale. She quickly begged Francis for forgiveness, "Grandpa, I know I was wrong. Please forgive me."

She stretched out her hand and grabbed Francis's arm, looking pitiful.

Francis coldly snorted and shook Nyla's hand off.

At this time, Nyla's mother couldn't stand it any longer and took a step forward, "Dad, it's true that Nyla's words were a little too much. But she did not mean to. You can't kick her out because of that."

"Yes, Mr. Patel. Nyla is doing it for the good of our Patel family. Casey has ruined the cooperation with the TY Group. Even if you want to drive someone away, the one should be Casey."

"Drive Casey away. It's all because of Casey this time. He can't stay in the Patel family anymore!"

A group of people pointed towards Casey, trying to take this opportunity to get Francis to personally make the decision to drive Casey away.

Francis remained unmoved and said with an exasperated look on his face, "Who told you that Casey was the one who ruined the cooperation this time? Casey brought back the contract of the TY Group. It was this bastard who broke it. Now, she even slander others shamelessly!"

When people heard Francis's words, they were shocked and looked at Nyla in disbelief.

"Dad, how could the contract be broken by Nyla? There must be some misunderstanding." Nyla's mother argued.

"I saw it with my own eyes. How can there be misunderstanding? Do you mean I'm old and stupid?" Francis snorted coldly.

Nyla's mother didn't dare to speak.

At this time, Edith stepped forward and said, "Grandpa, Casey and I had intended to let Nyla go. But Nyla bullied us to the extreme and even brought so many people to my house to make trouble. Please uphold justice for us this time."

Nyla quickly said, "Grandpa, I really know I was wrong. Please forgive me. I will marry into B City's Davies family. You can't drive me away."

Francis had intended to punish Nyla severely. But when he heard her words, his heart was softened again.

Nyla was his chance to have connections with the Davies family. So, he naturally was reluctant to drive Nyla away.

"Edith, Nyla is young and not sensible. Let's just let it go. I will forbid them to talk about it and give you some compensation. What do you think?" Francis finally said.

Edith felt disappointed. Nyla had gone so far. But Francis even wanted to shield her.

"All of you remember that whoever dares to force Casey and Edith to divorce again will be kicked out of the Patel family!" Francis spoke loudly.

Everyone in the room was silent. Although they hated Casey, no one dared to disobey Francis' order.

After saying that, looking at Casey, Francis smiled and said, "Casey, you are wronged this time. Since the TY Group has agreed to cooperate with us, they should not go back on their promise. So, please go and ask them for another contract."

When Amara heard this, she immediately pushed Casey and said, "What are you doing? Reply quickly."

Casey ignored Amara and said, "I can go to ask for another contract. But you must give Edith a free hand with the project. No one else is allowed to interfere."

All the relatives knew that there were rich pickings to be made from this project. If the project was completely handed over to Edith, then they would have no chance to profit from it.

So, they immediately objected to it and were all talking at once.

Francis glared at them and said, "When it comes to contribution to the family, all of you just stand by and only flock here when something profitable comes. I'll listen to Casey. Edith is the sole authority over this project. No one else can have a finger in the pie."

The group of people immediately shut up and glared at Casey with resentment.

"You dare to make a condition with Francis. You are being arrogant!" Amara muttered. Seeing that Casey was speaking for Edith, she didn't go too far.

"Then it's a deal. When the contract is brought back, let Edith sign it." Francis said.

Casey nodded.

After that, Francis left with the help of his secretary, and took Nyla with him.

Other relatives also stopped asking for a snub and left together. But before they left, they reproved Casey, saying that Casey was just a trash but dared to steal the profit of the members of the Patel family.

After sending these people away, Edith was relieved. She turned to look at Amara and Nicolas and said, "Then you believe it."

Amara curled her lip, looked unreasonable and said, "Even though it has nothing to do with him, it doesn't change the fact that he's a jinx."

"Don't let me catch his mistakes. Once I get, I'll kick him out immediately."

With that, she and Nicolas went back to the room.

Edith looked at Casey with pity and said, "You are wronged."

Casey smiled and said, "It's fine if things are settled."

Edith nodded and then hurried to work.

Casey went to the TY Group again and asked for a contract from Charles. After Edith got off work, he asked Edith to sign the contract.

The cooperation between the TY Group and the Patel family officially started. Francis did hand the project to Edith.

The Patel family's relatives were all jealous. But there was nothing they could do about it. It was Casey who proposed that Edith took full charge of the project. Everyone thought that it was Casey's fault and would swear at him.

After taking over the project, Edith obviously became busy. Every day after work, she was tired and Casey would give her a massage.

Over time, Edith would lie down on the bed at night, waiting for Casey to help her relax. Sometimes, Casey would accidentally touch her body, and Edith would not react.

When Casey looked at Edith's relaxed look, his sexual desire for her was aroused many times. But every time he made a move on her, Edith had already fallen asleep. So, Casey could only suppress his desire.

Since Edith got the project of the TY Group, her salary had gone up a lot. The money she got every month became several times of the previous one.

The one who was happiest was Amara, who would cook delicious food for Edith every day so that she could work well.

It was because of this that Amara was less disgusted with Casey. But their relationship was still strained.

This afternoon, Casey was walking alone on the road. Conor had called him and said that he was in a little trouble and asked him to go to the Starry Night Club.

In the past few days, Casey had been thinking about the house. While he was walking, he was still thinking about what kind of house to buy.

While he was distracted, he suddenly heard a commotion from the front. Casey looked up and found a group of tattooed men surrounding a fruit stall. There was a child standing in front of the fruit stand, who had been scared to cry by these tattooed men.

"Little brat, this peach tastes so bad. How dare you ask me for money? Let me tell you, I have something important to do today. I don't want to waste time here with you. Or else I'll just tear your stall apart."

The leader was a man with a tiger tattooed on his chest. He looked aggressive and no one around dared to approach him.

"My father is sick and needs money to see a doctor. The money is to save my father's life. Please give me the money." The child said as he cried.

The leader glared at the child, then took two more peaches and said, "Damn it! You're being arrogant! Guys, take whatever you want. Let me see who dares to ask for money."

All those people immediately started to take fruit from the stand, just like vicious wolves.

There were many adults around. But none of them dared to speak for the children for fear of getting into trouble.

When the child saw that the fruit from the stand was almost gone, he cried more terribly.

The group of people didn't think it was wrong at all. They took the fruit and was about to leave.

Just at this time, Casey blocked their way and said coldly, "It is right and proper to take things and pay for them. I'm afraid it's not appropriate for you to leave like this."
