Casey gave Edith a strange look, unexpectedly she would let him apologize to Alexander.
It stood to reason that Edith hated Alexander very much, so why did she defend him?
Alexander was also a little surprised. He knew that Edith didn't like him since he was a child. He thought he would have a lot of conflicts with Edith this time. Now it seemed that Edith had changed her mind.
"Have you heard, Edith asked you to apologize to me. What are you doing in a daze?" Alexander said smugly.
Casey stared at Alexander and said, "There is a dash cam in the car. Let's go and check it before you decide whether to let me apologize?"
Alexander was frightened immediately. After he hit the dog, he had been pestering the woman in front of the car, and he must have been photographed by the dash cam.
"It's okay that you don't want to apologize. Forget it, I will just let it go." Alexander curled his lips and lowered his head to play with the phone.
When Edith heard Casey say this, she knew it was indeed Alexander's fault, but she was frustrated with Casey now, so she didn't say anything.
Amara stared at Casey and shouted, "How magnanimous Alexander is! You are a jerk, refuse to admit your mistake or make an apology. Do you think that you have to pay for the current property fees, then you can be imposing? The owner of this villa is still me."
Casey didn't pay attention to Amara, but stared at Edith for a while, always feeling she was a little strange and didn't know what was wrong.
At dinner, everyone was sitting at the table, Edith lowered her head and said nothing, preoccupied.
"Alexander, help yourself to some more." Amara smiled and picked Alexander with vegetables.
Alexander stared at Casey as he ate. Then he rolled his eyes and asked, "Auntie, Casey is still out of work, and relies on my cousin to support him?"
Both Amara and Nicolas looked at Casey. Although Casey did not work, they were a little surprised by Casey's performance during this period.
They couldn't get the property fee of at least 100,000 dollars a month. Although the owner of the villa was Amara, Casey paid the money, which showed that Casey was not as simple as they thought.
But even so, Amara still looked down on Casey, always feeling that Casey's money was stolen from her pocket.
"You are right. What kind of work can he do? He relies on Edith to raise him. If it wasn't for his help with housework, I would have driven him out a long time ago," Amara replied.
"Today, my father talked to me again. He told me that the Patel family had been troubled since Casey came, and he persuaded me to ask Edith divorce Casey," Nicolas said with a sigh.
They all knew that Francis did this because Edith stood up to him in public last time.
Francis felt that he couldn't get Edith right now, but it should always be okay to get rid of a Casey, so he kept pushing Nicolas to let Edith divorce Casey.
Originally, Edith didn't care this kind of thing. However, after Diana came today, when she heard about the divorce again, she hesitated and turned to look at Casey.
Casey noticed Edith's gaze, and he suddenly became nervous. Seeing she look at him at this time, Casey wondered whether she really planed a divorce?
For a moment, Casey became a little confused, completely confused about what happened to Edith.
When Alexander saw that Casey had no status in the Patel's family, he smiled and said, “I'm going to a party in two days, and all the well-known people in J City would attend. Why don't you let Casey go with me? Just a few more ways out."
Naturally, he didn't want to help Casey get to know more people. He wanted to use this gathering to humiliate Casey.
Alexander was stubborn, and it was his great pleasure to watch others make a fool of themselves.
After hearing Alexander's words, Amara's eyes lit up and she said, "Alexander, how do you know those people?"
"By playing games. They are not as skillful as I am in games. They all recognize me as the leader," Alexander said proudly.
"Alexander is really great. You even can make friends with those famous people in J City, let Casey go with you and enrich his experience, so that he will only do housework at home," Amara said.
"Mom, I won't go to the kids' party," Casey said.
Amara glared at Casey immediately, and shouted, "Kids' party. They are rich men in J City. You will never have the opportunity to contact people at this level because of your rubbish reputation. Alexander takes you there out of kindness. Don't be ingrate."
Casey was struggling with Edith's affairs, so he didn't want to argue with Amara, and agreed casually.
Seeing Casey's promise, Alexander sneered and murmured, "Hey, those playboys will look down on you, and they will humiliate you."
After eating, Casey went to wash the dishes. When he was done, he sat down next to Edith.
When Edith saw Casey coming, she got up and said, "I'm going to rest."
Casey also got up quickly, wanted to go back to the room with Edith, and asked her what was going on.
But what he didn't expect was that Edith didn't go to their room, instead went upstairs.
Amara glanced at Casey with a sneer, and said, "Edith won't sleep with you during this time, Reflect on yourself. If you still lay around the house all day, Edith will divorce you."
After that, she went upstairs with Edith.
Casey didn't believe that Edith went upstairs to sleep because of him. It was estimated that Alexanderwould be here these days. She didn't want to see Alexander, so she moved upstairs.
He would talk to Edith after Alexander left.
Casey shook his head helplessly, always feeling that Edith was inexplicably indifferent to him, just like her attitude in previous years.
"Casey, you are really useless. Your wife refuses to sleep in the same room with you. It's really embarrassing." Alexander mocked while playing games.
Casey glared at him, reaching out and snatching Alexander's phone.
