The Peremptory Casey Davies novel Chapter 145

Casey turned his head and glanced at Edith, and found that Edith did look a little strange. Seeing Casey looking at her, Edith quickly looked away.

"He is a jerk in J City, isn't he? Why are you still with him? Why don't you divorce him and let him go back with me? I can find you a perfect man." Margaret smiled and said to Edith.

"He is not a jerk." Edith's attitude suddenly became determined.

Seeing Edith like this, Margaret was taken aback for a moment, and then smiled, "I didn't expect you to be so infatuated with him, I hope you can stay the same."

Edith didn't understand what Margaret meant, stared at her and asked, "What is the relationship between you and Casey?"

"Obviously, I'm here to take him home. He doesn't just have a home here," Margaret joked.

Edith frowned immediately, feeling that Margaret seemed to suggest something to her.

She turned to look at Casey, and Casey quickly explained, "She is my aunt, don't listen to her nonsense."

Margaret walked to Edith, leaned to her ear, and said softly, "Casey is not as honest as you think. You can't believe what he said. He doesn't belong here and will leave sooner or later."

Casey frowned, reached out and pulled Edith over, and said coldly, "I have already said that, I have nothing to do with you anymore, don't disturb my life anymore."

Then he took Edith and walked out of the room.

Margaret smiled and glanced at the backs of the two people, and murmured, "I hope your wife can be as firm as you."

...

On the way back, Edith kept thinking about what Margaret said to her. She always felt that Margaret wanted to reveal some information to her.

She turned to look at Casey and asked, "Casey, is that really your aunt?"

Casey nodded and said, "That's right, but I've disowned with them. So, it's okay to say she is not my aunt."

Although Edith was curious about why Casey disowned with his family, she didn't ask too much when she saw Casey's thoughtful look.

"Will you always love me?" Edith asked.

Casey smiled and said, "Of course, I will only have you in my life. Don't be fooled by Margaret's words, she wants to drive a wedge between us."

Seeing Casey so sure, Edith also nodded, no longer thinking about the mess.

During this time, Casey was nice to her. Compared to Margaret's suggestive words, she naturally believed Casey more.

After they got home, Amara scolded Casey, making Casey and Edith look dumbfounded.

"Mom, what are you doing. What happened? Why do you scold him as soon as you come back?" Edith said angrily.

Amara glared at Casey, gritted her teeth and said, "He's a jerk, did he get into trouble outside again? Francis called me in person and said that Casey made them be disgraced. He hurled abuse at me. Then, should I scold him?"

Edith immediately understood what was going on. It seemed that after Francis went back, he was angry, so he took it out on Amara.

"Mom, things are not like what you think. Casey didn't get into trouble. Grandpa and the others were too much," Edith explained.

"Don't stay here to defend this jerk. I have already seen it clearly. You are completely bewitched by him. No matter what he does, you will be always on his side," Amara said gloomily.

Edith was aggrieved. She defended Casey because Casey didn't do anything wrong. Unexpectedly, Amara said that she was bewitched by Casey.

"Your grandfather wants you to go to him tomorrow. Edith, you really can't continue with this jerk, or he will ruin you for the rest of your life!"

Amara said another word, and then returned to the room angrily.

Edith looked helpless, turned her head and glanced at Casey, and said, "It seems that Grandpa is a little bit about angry what happened today."

Casey smiled and said, "He is angry, it's his business. I didn't do anything wrong. I even asked the Gary family to invite them to the dinner. They made trouble for themselves. If he wants to make trouble because of this, then I will take on him to the end."

Edith nodded, this time she intended to fully support Casey.

The next day, Casey and Edith went to the Patel family's mansion.

Francis sat on the sofa with a gloomy expression, and Albie and Nyla were standing on sides. Both of them looked gloomy.

Casey and Edith arrived in front of Francis, Francis immediately slapped the table and shouted, "Casey, you sinner, kneel down!"

"Grandpa, what's my fault?" Casey stood still and asked.

"Casey, are you really stupid or fake? Yesterday you caused us to be ashamed at the Gary Family Dinner. Do you still have no idea what you've done wrong??" Francis said coldly.

After they left the dinner party yesterday, they have been complaining that all this was Casey's fault. If it weren't for Casey, Hugo would not have said that.

Francis felt that Casey had been invited to the dinner by the Gary family, while he was invited only because of Casey's require, which made him uncomfortable.

He let Casey kneel down, also wanting to prove his majesty of the head of the family, but Casey did not obey his words.

"Am I the one who made you ashamed? I asked Hugo to invite you to the dinner, but you insisted that I slipped in and wanted to drive Edith and me out. Can you blame me?" Casey asked.

Francis was embarrassed. In the final analysis, it was his own fault.

"You are so hypocritical. Don't think that you are right to talk to us like this when you get support from Hugo. You are just a stooge of the Gary family. Hugo can kick you away at any time. When I marry into the Davies family in B City, the Gary will mean nothing to me. Don't be so conceited," Nyla said aggressively.

"Stop!" Francis snorted coldly, "Casey, you asked Hugo to invite me to the dinner on purpose, right. You have been bullied here, so after approaching Hugo, you wanted to take the opportunity to take revenge on me, right?"
