The Peremptory Casey Davies novel Chapter 155

After hearing what Albie said, admiration appeared on Nyla's face.

"Albie, that's a good idea. So, Edith can't be complacent anymore." Nyla smiled.

"Of course. I should be the one who is in charge of the company. Who is she? Dare she compete with me for the family property," Albie said coldly.

"By the way, Grayson is a lascivious. He agreed to me this time because I told him that he could use this thing to coerce Edith and let her have sex with him. When he achieves his aim, he can hand over the project to me, then Edith is toast." Albie continued.

Nyla also laughed, and she was very happy to see Edith's miserable situation.

"Albie, your plan is really amazing, even I admire you." Nyla smiled and said, then took out a small mirror from her bag and powdered her nose.

Albie took a look at Nyla's bag and lipstick, and said, "You have really had a good time recently. This pack costs 20,000. This lipstick is also a limited edition."

"Oh, just so so. I still have a lot of bags and lipsticks like this at home," Nyla said with a smile.

Albie immediately stared, and asked, "How did you get so much money?"

Nyla chuckled and said, "I sold one of the antiques that Davies' family sent me. And hat antique is really valuable. I didn't expect it to be sold for that much money."

"You actually sold Grandpa's antiques!" Albie exclaimed.

Nyla looked indifferent and said, "Those antiques were originally given to me, so what if I sell one. Anyway, I will marry to the Davies family sooner or later. It's better to live in comfort now. Or others may think I am impoverished when I get married."

Albie glanced at Nyla in admiration and smiled, "That's right, those things will be yours sooner or later. Nyla, how much money did you get by selling antiques. Can you share with me? I am really strapped for cash."

"No problem, I sold a white jade bottle for 8 million, but I'm running out of money. I plan to sell the wooden sculpture. I have an acquaintance, and that man offers me $10 million," Nyla said excitedly.

Albie's eyes lit up, and he said, "Great, I'll go with you then."

Nyla nodded, did not refuse.

Nyla didn't know that the white jade bottle she sold had a market value of more than 100 million, while the value of the wooden sculpture was even higher.

When the person who bought her antique saw that she didn't know much about antiques, he cheated her severely.

...

Early the next morning, Casey stood by Edith's door, waiting to explain to her about the Starry Night Club.

Before long, the door opened. Edith walked out of the room with her eyes were red and swollen.

She was not surprised when she saw Casey standing at the door, and planned to bypass Casey directly and go downstairs to wash.

Casey looked at Edith like this, with a distressed look, reached out and grabbed her shoulder.

"Edith, I went to Starry Night Club yesterday to find a friend to deal with things. If you don't believe me, I can ask my friend to come over, and we will confront each other," Casey explained.

"No," Edith said coldly.

Casey didn't expect Edith's attitude to be so cold that she didn't even give him a chance to explain.

"Don't you believe me?" Casey asked.

Edith smiled, without any feeling.

"It doesn't matter whether I believe you or not. I'm going to wash up, or I will be late for work later," Edith said.

Casey frowned. Normally, his visit to Starry Night Club was not supposed to have such a big impact on Edith. Was it something else that made Edith like this??

But after thinking about it for a long time, he couldn't think of any other reason that could make Edith be so indifferent to him.

Edith ignored Casey and went downstairs to wash up. During breakfast, she received a call, then she looked paler.

"Mom, you can eat first. There's something urgent in the company. I'll leave now." She got up directly, took a coat and left the house.

"Edith, why are you so anxious? You have to divorce Casey today," Amara said immediately.

Edith ignored her.

Casey wondered if he had to go to the company with Edith. At this time, Amara walked up to him and said, "There is something in Edith's company. Your divorce can be done later, but you have to give me ten million first."

"Mom, stop making trouble, Edith won't divorce me." Casey was speechless. At this time, Amara was still trying to make money out of him.

"Who said she wouldn't divorce you. Edith personally told me yesterday that you cheated on her and she couldn't live with you anymore. Ten million is for my daughter's mental loss," Amara said plausibly.

"Cheat?" Casey was taken aback, then remembered the photo secretly taken by Diana.

Did Diana really show that photo to Edith?

If that was the case, it could explain why Edith was so angry.

He cursed secretly, did not continue to pay attention to Amara, and left the villa immediately.

Amara yelled, "You bastard. Even dare to run away when hearing I ask you for money. I knew you were reluctant to give my daughter ten million."

At this time, Alexander walked out and heard what Amara said, he said, "Auntie, you underestimate Casey. Ten million is nothing to him."

Amara curled her lips and said, "Are you kidding me? Don't be funny, he is a wimp. He can never have ten million."

"Aunt, if Casey doesn't even have ten million, how could he afford this villa," Alexander said with a smile.

Amara thought about it, but he never felt that Casey's money was earned by himself, and always suspected that Casey's money was given by Stella.

"He didn't own the money for buying the villa. It was all given by Stella. Well, I have to ask him to give Edith 10 million. Stella may give him a lot of money," Amara muttered.

...

Edith went all the way to the company. The secretary called her just now and said that the director of Jiangma Building Materials Factory was looking for her in a hurry and asked her to come over.

After arriving at the office, Edith saw that Grayson was already waiting in the office.

Grayson was in his forties. Although he was still middle-aged, but his hair was half white.

He was Teddy's father. Yesterday Teddy did not tell him about the loss of Jiangma Building Materials Factory. If he knew, Teddy's leg would have to be broken. Therefore, Teddy wanted to stall for time.

Until now, Grayson thought Jiangma Building Materials Factory was his property, so he came to Edith to negotiate terms.

"Manager Grayson, sorry to keep you waiting. Sit down please, I'll get you some tea," Edith said.

Grayson smiled, walked over and closed the office door, and said, "No, thank you. Let's get straight to the point. I'm here to talk to you about building materials."

Edith felt a little uncomfortable seeing Grayson shut the door.

"Manager Grayson, the cooperation between us had always been very pleasant. I didn't know what you want to talk about?" Edith asked.

"I only recently learned that you are getting building materials from us for a project with TY Group. I have heard of this project. It is very profitable. You may have made a lot of money from it. You know, I have many factories except for Jiangma Building Materials Factory and there are a lot of people that I need to support. Therefore, should Manager you give me a higher offer so that I can make some money?" Grayson asked.

Edith frowned. She didn't expect Grayson to raise the price.

"Manager Grayson, you supply building materials to other companies at the same price. If you want to increase the price, you should do it in a unified way? Why do you only come to our company?" Edith asked.

Grayson walked up to Edith and said, "Didn't I say, your project makes money, and I want to have a share."

"How much do you want?" Edith asked.

Building materials were a key part of the TY Group's project. If there were no building materials, other series of work could not be carried out.

So, Edith didn't want anything wrong with the building materials now. Grayson must had known this point, so he came to raise the price.

If Grayson's price was reasonable, it didn't matter that she gave him some benefits.

"Double it," Grayson said with a smile.

He came here not to raise prices at all, but to embarrass Edith, as Albie said.

He naturally coveted Edith's beauty, and if Edith was willing to sacrifice for the company, he would win.

Edith's look changed suddenly, and she said, "Director Grayson, don't be joking. If the price is doubled, our company can't run anymore."

Grayson looked indifferent and said, "For you, doubling the price will only reduce the profit. I think you should accept it."

"Impossible! Your request is too much!" Edith said with an ugly look.

She was initially upset because of Casey's affairs, but she didn't expect that the company would encounter such a thing again, and she would naturally feel even more uncomfortable.

Grayson smiled and said, "If you don't want to double the price, I have another way. As long as you can promise me, I won't raise the price."

"What's that?" Edith asked.

Grayson leaned over to Edith, reached out to pick her chin, and said with a smile, "You are so beautiful. It is a pity to marry that wimp. If you are willing to sleep with me, I promise not to raise the price?"

Edith stepped back immediately, frowning at Grayson.

"Manager Grayson, please be self-possessed. Here is our company," Edith said.

"So? You mean you will agree to sleep with me if we are not in your company, right? Then let's go out and take a hotel room now," Grayson said with a smile.

"Don't get me wrong, I didn't mean that. I can't agree to your request." A trace of anger simmered inside Edith.

She had never expected that Grayson, who looked so serious, would tell her this kind of thing.

"If you don't agree, I will stop the supply of building materials to your company now. You should know how much loss you will have if the project fails to proceed." Grayson threatened her.

"Grayson, don't go too far!" Edith yelled at Grayson.

"Do I go too far? I'm just helping you. I heard that you married Casey, a wimp. He never touched you. Isn't this a humiliation for a woman? That wimp can't meet your sexual needs. I'm here to satisfy you, and it won't affect our cooperation. Isn't it complete in both respects?" Grayson said.

Hearing what Grayson said, Edith bit her lip immediately with mixed feelings.

"It's none ofnyour business. If you make trouble unreasonably, I will call the security guard," Edith said in anger.

"It seemed that Casey really hasn't touched you. Tut-tut, poor you. You'd better promise me,. and I promise you will have a good time." Grayson was wretched, reaching out to touch Edith's face.

Edith waved her hand directly and pushed Grayson's hand away.

"Don't think that without your factory, my project will not go on. You are a scumbag. I shouldn't have cooperated with you in the first place!" Edith scolded.

Grayson glared at Edith and said, "Ingrate! Then, let's wait and see how your project continues without my factory!"

After speaking, Grayson turned and slammed the door out.

Edith sat down at her desk and began to cry bitterly.
