The Peremptory Casey Davies novel Chapter 324

The next morning, Jennifer went to the food market to buy some food while Casey cleaned up at home.

When Amara came out of her room, she saw that Casey was sweeping the floor. Then, she immediately murmured, "Just like a servant. It's really shameful for someone from the Davies family to live such a life."

Casey had long been accustomed to it. Therefore, he neglected Amara and went on to sweep the floor.

In his opinion. He could have a better character by doing housework. These years, he had been doing housework every day. Now, he became a calm and steady man. Besides, when he saw the house become cleaner and the cleaner, he would be in a better mood.

Therefore, although they hired Jennifer, Casey would still do housework when he was free. It had been his habit to keep the house clean and tidy.

When Casey lived such a life, Edith liked him more. If Casey really became the heir of the Davies family and was attended to in every respect by someone every day, she might find it hard to accept.

The phone rang when Casey just finished sweeping the floor.

"Casey...Casey, can you come to the market? I'm in trouble." Jennifer said in panicked voice.

"What happened?" Casey frowned.

"At that time, I..." Before Jennifer finished her words, Casey heard the sound of smashing the phone and a man cursing, "Fuck, get out. No matter who you call, it's useless."

Casey knew that there was something wrong, he quickly hung up the phone, took a coat and then hurried to the food market.

The food market was not far away from Hazelfield Estate, but it still took 20 minutes to walk there. After leaving the house, Casey went to the food market by bike.

This food market could be said to be the largest food market around Hazelfield Estate. Inside, there were all kinds of food, from vegetables to seafood. Before long, Casey was told by Conor that he was now in charge of the management of this food market. Conor would send someone to maintain the order of this food market and the stall owners would pay him management fees on time every month. Conor could earn quite a lot of money every month because it was a relatively large market.

After arriving at the food market, Casey put the bike on the side of the road. Then, he hurried inside. The moment he entered the market, he saw many people around a vegetable stall to look on.

He hurriedly went towards them. After he managed to find a way in, he saw Jennifer sitting on the floor with messy hair. Her mobile phone was on also on the floor and had been broken. An angry man, who looked malicious, sat opposite her.

"I've fucking told you that I didn't steal your bag. Your missing your bag has nothing to do with me. Get out! Don't influence my doing business. I've been kind enough by not asking you to compensate me for the loss I suffer when I can't do business." The stall owner said in a fierce way.

"Just now, I put my bag here before I went to choose vegetables. Only you and I were here at that time. A moment after I walked away, the bad was gone. If you hadn't stolen it, who would have stolen it?" Jennifer said with an aggrieved expression.

"You make it up to slander me. Bitch, be sensible. The person who maintains the order here is my relative. If I become angry, I'll ask someone to drive you out of the market!" The owner of the stall shouted.

"Since you think that I'm slandering you, why don't you go to watch the surveillance video? There is a camera. It must have recorded everything. Why did you push me when I proposed to watch the surveillance video and smashed my phone? How are you going to explain it?" Jennifer retorted.

The stall owner immediately felt that he was in the wrong. However, he was still rude and said coldly, "I didn't steal your bag. It's s useless to watch the surveillance video. As for your mobile phone, you fell down and smashed it yourself. It had nothing to do with me. Don't slander me."

Many people were looking at Jennifer sympathetically, but no one helped her. People here all knew that the stall owner was the relative of the person who maintains the order of this food market. At ordinary times, no one dared to quarrel with him. When this stall owner made trouble for them, they could only endure it.

"You had better accept it as a bad luck. In this food market, it's useless for you to reason with him. If you're unlucky, you might be beaten." Someone around kindly reminded Jennifer.

Jennifer gritted her teeth and was unwilling to give up. There were more than 2000 dollars in her bag. That was the money Casey gave her to buy food during this month. If it was missing just like this, she would feel sorry for it even if Casey didn't scold her.

Casey found a way out of the crowd, came close to Jennifer and helped her up.

"Jennifer, are you ok?" Casey asked.

Seeing that Casey was here, there was hope in Jennifer's eyes. She said, "Casey, I lost my bag. I suspect that it's this person who steals it. Now, I just want to watch the surveillance video. If I'm wrong, I'm m willing to apologize to him. I don't want to lose my bag like this."

Casey nodded to Jennifer and said, "Don't worry. I'll handle this issue for you and find out who steal your bag."

Then he turned to look at the stall owner and said coldly, "Whether the bag is stolen by you or not, I can't let you get away with pushing her down for no reason and smashing her cell phone."

The stall owner looked at him up and down. Seeing that the clothes Casey wore was cheaper than his, he immediately put on a disdainful smile and said, "Why, she really found someone to help her. I did push her. So what? She is an eyesore here. I've been kind enough by not hitting her directly. What do you want to do? Take a revenge on me for her?"

"Apologize to her." Casey said in a cold voice.
