In the center villa of Hazelfield Estate.
Edith looked at her phone with a sullen look, and her body was stiff as she kept echoing in her mind what the person on the other side had said.
Because of what Tyler said before, Edith didn't even think about why it was a girl who answered the phone, nor did she think about the girl's tone of voice.
She was stunned now, and sad emotions swept through her whole body. It was the first time that she felt heartache in her life.
That feeling almost suffocated her.
When both Amara and Nicolas saw Edith like this, they both stopped their crusade against Casey. Nicolas asked, "Edith, what's wrong? It doesn't seem to be good news depending on your appearance."
When Edith heard Nicolas asked, she couldn't help it, tears gushing from her eyes, and he started to cry.
"Dad, Mom, Casey is dead," Edith said vaguely.
Both Nicolas and Amara's looks changed, and did not expect Edith to say such shocking words.
"Edith, did you make a mistake? How could Casey?" Nicolas comforted.
"Edith, don't be sad. I thought Casey was really the heir of the Davies family. I didn't expect that wimp was just going back to die for others. In the final analysis, he was still a worthless wimp. There is nothing to be sad about his death. You can find a good husband to marry." Amara also followed.
In her opinion, since Casey was not the heir to the Davies family, it would be better that he died. Only in this way could she help Edith find a new husband, so this was a good thing for her.
When Edith heard Amara's words, she immediately cried and became even more sad. She really didn't want to see Amara. She felt that her mother would only made her feel more terrible, so she got up and went back to her room, crying alone.
Nicolas stared at Amara with an ugly expression, and said, "What did you say just now? You didn't see that your daughter was sad. Didn't your words mean to block her."
Amara looked disapproving, and said, "Am I right? Casey is not the heir of the Davies family, so he is of no value to us. Our daughter is now the chairman of the Patel family's company. Casey has long been a wimp and is not worthy of her. Edith is bewitched by him, and couldn't tolerate others in her eyes. Now he is dead, so that no one can stop my daughter from marrying a good person."
Nicolas sighed helplessly after hearing what Amara said. He also felt that Amara's attitude changed too quickly. After knowing that Casey was not the heir of the Davies family, her attitude would have changed so much.
However, he didn't dare to say anything, even if he felt Amara was too much, he could only endure it, otherwise the one who was kicked out of the house might be him.
...
After Tyler left Hazelfield Estate, he didn't know where to go for a while. He thought he could get Casey's wife done today, and then lived in J City for a while as Casey.
He never expected he was kicked out after he had just entered Casey's house for a meal.
After thinking about it for a while, Tyler took a taxi and asked the driver to take him to the nearest bar.
Even if he couldn't get Edith, he would have a good time today. Going to the bar to fish for girls was his favorite game.
Before long, the driver took Tyler in front of a bar called Butterfly Bar, and Tyler walked directly into the bar, intending to show off his talents inside.
Before he went in, drunk a girl in shorts and a vest walked towards him.
The girl's figure was quite good, especially the two long legs. She was white and tender, which made people have the urge to touch her.
Tyler noticed the girl at a glance. He rolled his eyes, walked directly in front of the girl, and then pretended to accidentally hit her and knocked the girl to the ground.
He hurriedly bent over to help, pretending to be concerned and said, "Are you okay?"
The girl looked up at him. She wanted to yell at him, but she was stunned when she saw Tyler's face.
"Casey, why are you here?" The girl who was knocked down by Tyler was Edith's best friend. Since the last incident, Diana had been in the habit of drinking and came to the bar to drink almost every night.
She tried to make herself forget Casey, but the more she forced herself so, the stronger her desire for Casey was. However, she knew that it was impossible for her to be with Casey.
So, she could only rely on alcohol to numb herself.
"Well, do you know me?" Tyler was also taken aback. He didn't expect this beautiful girl to know Casey.
There was a wry smile on Diana's face, she thought Casey had done it on purpose.
"Don't I just like you? Do you have to pretend not to know me because of this? I know that Edith and I are best friends. I shouldn't like my best friend's husband, but the feelings of people are not regulated by others. I can't help it, and I haven't bothered you for this period of time. Why do you pretend not to know me?"
Because of drinking, Diana directly said what she thought. These words had been held in her heart for a long time. She didn't care what Casey would think anymore. She just wanted Casey to know that she had not been able to let go of the feelings.
After Tyler heard Diana's words, a joking smile appeared on his face. He thought that Casey's life in J City was so rich that even his wife's girlfriends liked him, and she was a beautiful beauty with first-class appearance.
Hearing what Diana said, Casey didn't seem to appreciate it. In that case, he didn't mind to appease Diana for Casey.
Tyler showed a smirk on his face, put his arm around Diana's shoulder, and said, "How could I pretend not to know you? I just didn't see it clearly. Your drunk look has become more charming so that I didn't dare to recognize you."
