The Peremptory Casey Davies novel Chapter 86

The hall manager was totally dumfounded with his eyes wide open fixed on Casey. It was a hundred million! It was an incredible figure in his eyes, which was a mission impossible for him to earn even for a life time.

The manager was totally stricken when hearing the number. His straight figure immediately slumped.

"Sir, the amount is too big to be handled by ATM. I am so sorry for inconveniencing you due to the poor performance of the manager. He deserves to be expelled."

"Please come with me. I will handle it, sir."

The general manager looked at Casey with great respect. The manager who was just fired was just a nobody when compared with a noble client who possessed Blank Card granted by the World Bank.

Casey didn’t want to waste any time. He followed the general manager in the VIP room to transfer. Conor also hurried to follow in.

When they walked out of the bank, Conor held another card with his trembling arms. In his eyes, this card seemed to weigh more than hundreds of tons.

He witnessed himself that the general manager transferred a hundred million into this card from the Black Card owned by Casey. He still felt like dreaming.

"Casey, how many secrets have you kept? Everyone in this city mocks you for being a wimp. But I believe that you are at the top of this city!" Conor exclaimed.

Casey smiled. He didn’t intend to answer his doubt. He then said, "The money will be at your disposal, and I will keep waiting till the day you take control of the whole underworld of the J City. Don’t disappoint me."

Conor nodded seriously, "Just rest assured. If I even fail such a simply task, I should rather get back to run a little stand."

The two smiled and then they departed at the gate of the bank.

Master Wong was waiting for Casey. He wanted to apologize to him in person when Casey finished the transfer. But his girlfriend told him to come to meet her for something urgent. He had no choice to hurry to meet his girlfriend.

However, he didn’t expect that his girlfriend asked him to come only for the payment of a luxury handbag.

Master Wong hurried to come back to the back when he finished the payment. However, Casey had left when he arrived.

He cursed her girlfriend in his mind. He couldn’t believe such an exciting opportunity would be wasted only because of a bag.

"Fucking bitch! How dare you ruin my plan! I will definitely dump you!"

When Edith arrived home, it had been at dusk.

Amara had prepared a cornucopia of dishes to nourish Edith.

Edith had multiplied her pay packet during these days. So she gave much more money to both her parents. And Amara started to squander instead of bargaining as before.

Edith drove back home and parked her car. The first thing she did when she entered was take Casey back to the room for massage instead of having meal.

Amara immediately stopped them when seeing them enter the room.

"What are you doing?" Amara glared at Casey, as if he were a rapist.

"Mom, I am too tired after work. I just want him to massage me. What are you doing?" Edith asked.

"Massage? Let me do it! I can’t let him touch you! I notice both of you being fishy these days. I don’t think you both are about to do the massage but something else." Amara huffed as if she had known what would happen.

Edith felt ridiculous when hearing that.

"Mom, what are you talking about? I just want a massage." Edith explained.

"No way! This guy must have been planning something evil. You need to be careful!" Amara said.

"We are legitimate couple!"

Obviously, Amara had never agreed their marriage. So she turned a deaf ear to Edith’s words.

Edith had no choice but to sit in front of the table with her exhausted body. She planned to have a massage before bed-time tonight.

Casey felt a bit sorry for her when seeing her fatigue. But he could do nothing about the hostile attitude of Amara. So he also planned to massage Edith before bed-time.

"Girl, have some fish. It’s good for your brain." Amara picked up some food for Edith.

"Girl, you really make us proud. I met Remi’s son today. He was no longer arrogant in front of me as before and he even came to my front to great me!" Nicolas smiled.

"Remember, she is also my girl! You know what, when Edith managed to get the cooperation project with the TY Group, almost everyone in the Patel family comes to fawn on us thanks to our great girl." Amara said complacently.

Edith then explained, "Dad, mom. It was Casey who helped me conclude this project this time. You both should say thanks to him."

Edith planned to change her parents’ impression of Casey. It was a chance to show his ability this time.

However, Edith seemed to underestimate the bias deeply rooted in her mother’s mind. From Amara’s point of view, it had nothing to do with Casey.

"Come on, he did nothing in this project! Don’t fool us. You rely on your own ability to get this project. The great performance of my girl has nothing to do with him." Amara stated.

Edith explained again, "Mom, it was Casey who offered me the project. Don’t you see his contribution?"

"Come on, stop fooling me. It’s you who got this contract on your own. Don’t try to persuade us with his so-called contribution! I know you want to change his image in our mind. But you should know he is just a good-for-nothing!" Amara rolled her eyes.

"Your mom is right. Girl, don’t waste your time on him." Nicolas echoed.

Edith couldn’t believe both her parents still intended to warp the fact.

"Mom, it was Casey who managed to get this project and it had nothing to do with me!" Edith was almost driven crazy by her unreasonable parents.

Casey smiled at Edith, "Time to focus on your food. No need to argue about it."

"See? Even Casey himself admits it!" Amara took the chance to say so.

Edith was frustrated. She had no mood to continue with the meal. She was rendered speechless by her parents.

Amara took a look at Casey and said, "I have cleared up the basement of the house. From now on, he can sleep in the basement. Edith, you are always busy with work. You should avoid being disturbed. So, Casey, I am sorry to make you in the basement for her good."

As soon as Amara said so, Edith couldn’t put up with her decision. Neither did Casey.

"No!" Both of them exclaimed.

"Just do as I said. Girl, I did this for your good. You will understand me in the future." Amara persuaded.

"For my own good? You just keep making trouble for me! Do you know how busy and how tired I am?" Edith shouted.

"Girl, think about it. Now you have upgraded your status in the Patel family and you will have a bright future. And that’s what Casey wants from you and that’s why he tries all means to get close to you. Because he knows that you can’t get rid of him once you are pregnant with his baby." Amara stated her presumption straightforwardly.

Edith was stunned because of her mom’s exaggerated words.

"What kind of nonsense are you talking about? How could he be such a shameless person! We are legitimate couple. I don’t regret even if I am pregnant with his baby!" Edith shouted to refute.

Amara was livid out of anger. She then turned to shout at Casey, "From now on you have to sleep in the basement and you are not allowed to enter her room! We have offered you a place to stay and sufficed you with food during these years! You should be grateful!"

"Get all your stuff to the basement tomorrow! Or get the hell out of here!"

Casey’s face darkened, "Don’t ever try to separate us apart!"

He had been tolerant of their unreasonable actions for the sake of Edith. But when Amara forced him to divorce Edith last time, he was aware that he could never gain the recognition of Amara simply by tolerance.

So Casey had made up his mind that there was no room to negotiate when it came to the matter between him and Edith.

Even Amara hadn’t expected that Casey dared refute. She huffed, "This is my house! I can let you stay or get you out of here!"

"Since then, I can move out to reside in another house with her." Casey stated calmly.

Amara was stunned. But then she sneered, "Don’t play tough in front of me. Where else can you both live if you move out? Do you have another house, you wimp! You could only rely on my daughter even if you move out. How dare you brag about yourself!"

"I can buy my own house." Casey frowned.

Amara never believed a single word of him. She turned to say to Edith, "Girl, did you see? This idiot is nothing but a braggart. He even dreams of buying his own house. How ridiculous. Perhaps the sewer is his so-called house."

"I don’t think you will reside in the sewer tube with him." Amara continued.

"Yes, I will!" Edith answered firmly at this moment.
