The Peremptory Casey Davies novel Chapter 177

At the J City Branch of TY Group.

Casey sat in an office with Charles, who was making tea for Casey. Charles had always been the one served by others, having never made tea for other people so seriously like this.

"You mean that Albie is the current chairman of the Patel family’s company?" asked Casey.

Charles nodded with a smile, "I just heard the news, too. I heard that Albie forced Francis to stand down. The family are strange. It was said that they must raise 80 million RMB to redeem two pieces of antique. Albie offered to raise the money on condition that Francis let him be the chairman. "

"Francis agreed. After that, Albie immediately sold the antique of Francis to raise money. Now, Francis is so angry that he can't get out of bed. "

It never occurred to Casey that Albie would be so ruthless and did such things under this situation.

"The company of the Patel family doesn't have much property left now. Why does Albie want to be the chairman? I really can't understand him." Charles shook his head.

Casey smiled and said, "This kind of people is just like this. They believed that it is still a big company even if there isn't much property left and they will earn the money back in the future. Albie has longed for power for a long time. "

"This is true. He became the chairman just two days ago and began to be on the take. He thought that we didn't know the fact that Edith had been removed from the post, so he appropriated 100 million RMB from the project in two days." Charles said.

Casey frowned, never expecting Albie to be such a daredevil.

"It seems that he still hasn't learned a lesson from the audit last time." Casey murmured.

"Shall I send someone to teach him a lesson? That they removed Edith from the office is already a big trouble for them." Charles asked.

Casey smiled and shook his head, "Don't worry. Just let him do this for a while. If my memory serves me right, the market value of the Patel family’s company is about 50 million, right? "

Charles nodded and asked, "Almost. What do you mean?"

Casey told him, "I need to go to Yutian County recently. I am going to acquire the company of the Patel family when I return. "

One month later, LINSUYNG would follow Margaret back to B City. He did not know what would happen, so he had to be well prepared even if he was just about to be there for some time.

Albie was at odds with Edith, so Casey must help Edith to keep Albie in line before leaving for B City.

And it was undoubtedly the best way to keep Albie in line to acquire the company of the Patel family.

Charles nodded and inquired, "Why do you go to Yutian County?"

Casey told him, "Go to visit Amara's home and stay there for a few days."

Charles smiled and said, "I see. Do you still remember Leonardo Armstrong who was with me all the time in those years?"

Casey nodded and asked, "He worked with you at that time, but I haven't seen him these two years. Where has he gone?"

"He is in Yutian County now and is successful there. You can come to him if you are in need of help. This is his phone number." Charles said with a smile.

"I see, but I am afraid that he might have forgotten me." Casey said with a smile.

"It is impossible! You are my benefactor. And you are his benefactor, too. At that time, we two depended on you to survive. Not to mention that Leonardo would not be able to develop his career in Yutian County without the resources you gave us. Not long ago, Leonardo called me, saying that he missed you and would like to come to you for a drink when he was free." Charles said with a smile.

Casey nodded and took down the phone number Charles gave him. It was indeed better to have an acquaintance when he was out.

……

Amara told Edith that she was going to buy something after she helped Edith to pack her clothes. She left the sub-district and headed towards a bank.

Amara was very excited and kept stroking Casey’s Black Card on the way. This card was really unusual and it was easy to find its being superior in quality just by touching it, she wondered.

"Casey is really stupid, setting such simple a password. I will take all his money and see if he still dares to be so arrogant." she muttered.

"Casey, you are still a loser without the money. As you live in my house and is unwilling to leave, you should be prepared mentally to be a servant all your life! "

Before long, Amara arrived at a bank, sat in a chair in front of a bank counter, and handed the Black Card to the bank clerk, "I would like to check the account balance of this card."

The clerk took the card, swiped it, and then asked Amara to enter password.

Amara entered six zeros and then stared at the clerk expectantly, desiring to know how much money was left.

Right at this moment, a warning sounded from the computer with several words appearing on the screen:

No permission to check.

The clerk was stunned for a while. It was the first time that she had encounter such situation. There was bank card that they had no permission to check!

"Hey, how much money is left? Why are you so surprised? Could it be that all the money is gone?" Amara asked in disappointment.

"Sorry. We can't check the account balance of this card because we have no permission to check." the clerk said.

Amara glared at her at once, "You have no permission to check? A bank has no permission to check? What kind of card is it? Is there this kind of restriction?"

"It is the first time that I've encountered such situation and I don't know much." the clerk said. Suddenly she realized that Amara didn't know much about this cars, as if it was not hers.

"Well, may I ask if it is your card?" the clerk asked.

Amara appeared to be a little embarrassed and said, "Of...of course, it's mine. Who else can it belong to if it isn't mine? "

The clerk hesitated for a moment and said, "Please wait here for a while. I will ask our manager to come and have a look. "

Then she went to the manager.

Immediately Amara began to mutter, "Damn Casey! He had got such a rubbish card that even can't be check! How troublesome it is that I have to go to the manager! "

Soon, the clerk came back with the manager. She took the Black Card and showed it to the manager.

The manager took it. When he found that it was a Black Card of the World Bank, he nearly exclaimed with eyes wide open.

He had seen this kind of card in J City before and that was owned by Casey. He never expected that another person would come with this kind of Black Card.

However, he found that this card was exactly the same as the one owned by Casey after watching it carefully. He remembered it very well that there were some scratches on the gilt edge of Casey’s Black Card, exactly the same as this one.

He raised his head, looked at Amara and then asked, "Excuse me, may I ask if it is your card?"

"It's mine. Who else can it belong to if it's not mine? Give it back to me right now. I'll check it somewhere else if you can't." Amara answered impatiently.

Both of them asked if it was her card, making her feel a little uneasy.

The manager thought for a while and then said with a smile, "That's right. This is the top VIP card here. If you want to check the account balance, you must go to the VIP room. Please come with me. "

Amara gave him a suspicious glance and asked, "Really?"

The manager nodded and was sure that it was not her card at the same time.

He subconsciously felt that Amara had stolen this card.

Hearing him saying so, Amara followed the manager into a room with luxurious decoration that was upstairs.

Seeing the decoration, Amara was very surprised. It never occurred to her that there would be such a VIP room in the bank. In the past, she just handled business in the bank hall, having no chance to come to such a place.

Meanwhile, she began to be jealous of Casey. She didn't expect Casey's card to be so superior that he could use such a good VIP room.

"Please wait here for a while. I'll ask someone to check it for you." the manager said.

Amara nodded and urged, "Hurry up. I am your VIP. If you fail to give me the best service, I'll complain you. "

The manager sneered, wondering that she as a thief should call herself a VIP and planning to ask someone to catch her.

Then he left the VIP room.

Almost five minutes later, the door to the VIP room was pushed open. Amara immediately said impatiently, "I have told you to be as quick as possible. Why do you keep me waiting here for so long a time?"

Then Amara became dumbfounded, because it was ten security guards in security uniforms with batons in their hands that came in, instead of bank staff.

"What...what are you doing? I am a VIP. Why do you come here?" Amara panicked immediately.

The manager came in, sneered at Amara and asked, "You had better come clean. Where did you steal this card from?"

Amara stared at the manager and said falteringly, "It...It's my card. Why do you say that I stole it? I will sue you for slander!"

The manager snorted and said, "This is a Black Card of the World Bank. There are but 100 cards of this kind in the world. If it were yours, would you not know its permission and use?"

"Now that you are unwilling to tell the truth, I'll resort to violence." the manager cried loudly, "Catch her! Hit her if she doesn't admit!"

Ten security guards caught her at once. When Amara struggled hard, she still shout, "Let me go! You are imbeciles! This is my card! I will call the police!"

"It is us that should call the police. You stole from others and refused to admit. You are defying the law. Hit her!"

The guards immediately took action. They slapped her again and again. Soon, Amara's face swelled up.

……

Casey came out of the TY Group branch and headed towards his home.

When he was passing by a clothing shop, Casey saw an extremely pretty suit that would look great on Edith.

So he walked into the shop to buy it.

As soon as he entered the shop, Casey saw Albie who was choosing clothes with a girl.

He looked so triumphant that was not the least like having just spent 80 million RMB redeeming the antique.

He also saw Casey and then immediately walked over with that girl, mocking, "How dare you enter into this high-end clothing shop! Can you afford the clothes here?"

"It has nothing to do with you." Casey answered.

Albie snorted and said, "Let me tell you something. I am the chairman of the Patel family's company now. Money earned by the company all goes to my account. You and Edith, two unemployed person, are not qualified to compare with me. "

Casey smiled at Albie, saying, "Wish you can be the chairman for a long time."

Then he walked to the suit he took fancy on and talked to the clerk, "I want this suit. Pack it for me please. "

The clerk packed the suit straight away and told Casey to pay.

"Damn, that suit costs more than 30000 RMB. I don't believe that you can afford it. Let me see how you will pay." Albie followed Casey to the cashier desk.

Casey fingered his pocket, finding that there was nothing. It was only then that he remembered that he had forgot to take bank card with him after he got changed.
