The Peremptory Casey Davies novel Chapter 411

"You're still awake. I thought that you had fallen asleep." Edith turned her head. Under the moonlight, she saw the profile of Casey.

Casey smiled, saying, "I also thought that you were asleep, so I said that to know if you were."

"No, I were thinking about something. Why weren't you asleep? Were you thinking about something? Why not tell me about it?" Edith said.

Casey took a deep breath and said, "In the not long future, I'll leave J City for a very secret place. I'm not sure when I'll be back. Besides, I might be in unknown danger in that place. I think it necessary for me to inform you of it now."

He didn't intend to conceal the fact that he was going to Guanling from Edith. After all, he wouldn't know how dangerous it was before he was in Guanling. Casey had not heard from Terence for so many years after Terence went to Guanling. He was confident in himself, but he was not sure what would happen. After all, he didn't know what it was like in Guanling.

He worried that he would not be able to come back after going to Guanling, just like Terence. Therefore, he had to tell Edith something before he left.

Hearing that Casey was going to leave home again, Edith became nervous. Moreover, judging from what Casey said, he might be in great danger this time.

Before, when Casey was away from home and was in trouble, he would tell Edith that he was fine. Now, Casey told her that he might be in danger. Judging from it, the danger he might be in was possibly beyond her imagination.

"Will you be in great danger? What are you going to do? Must you go to that place?" Edith asked.

Casey nodded, saying, "I might get some information about my father's whereabouts. Therefore, however dangerous it is, I have to go to that place. Don't worry. I'll try my best to come back alive. After all, I want to be with you in the future."

Hearing this, Edith gave up stopping Casey from going to that place. She knew that Casey had always wanted to find his father. If he couldn't do that, he would be troubled a lot and would be always thinking about it.

"Then, be very careful. If you can't find him, just give up. After all, you can go to that place many times in the future. It should be acceptable that you can't find him this time." Edith comforted him.

Casey nodded, not telling Edith the rumor that people were only allowed to go to Guanling and were not allowed to leave Guanling. He was not going to tell Edith that the place he was leaving for was somewhere secluded from the rest of the world. He just told her that he was going to a secret place.

"Later, I'll talk with Conor and Charles. After I leave, they would try their best to help you. Besides, I've asked Morgan to secretly protect you. Therefore, you won't be in any danger in the future." Casey went on.

Edith nodded. The harder Casey tried to protect her, the more she felt that she was useless. Such a feeling had been troubling her.

"Before, you wanted to have a talk with me, right? Tell me what you're thinking about recently." Casey turned his head and gave Edith a glance.

Edith narrowed her eyes, smiled and said, "Nothing important. I just wanted to talk with you about something about the company. It isn't important."

She was not going to tell Casey her feelings. Now, Casey was leaving for a dangerous place. It was useless to talk to him about it. It would only distract him from what he had to do.

Maybe it wasn't too late for her to tell Casey that after he came back. At most, she would suffer for some more time.

Hearing what Edith said, Casey didn't think about this matter anymore. He was tired from dealing with Lily, so he soon fell asleep.

Edith kept staring at Casey. She didn't close her eyes until she became sleepy in the midnight.

The next morning, Casey received a message from Conor.

"After getting up in the morning, Lily packed her belongings and went to the airport. She left for B City on the first flight."

Casey breathed a long sigh of relief. He knew that Lily didn't forgive him, but he really had no time to let her change her opinion of him. He had something more important to do.

It might be best that Lily took the initiative to go back to B City now.

No matter what, he didn't have the time to deal with these matters until he came back from Guanling.

In the next few days, he thought over what arrangements he should make for J City. Now, J City was completely under his control. Casey had taken control over the dark force and the economy. With Conor and Charles, who were capable, even if he was away from J City, nothing bad would happen in J City.

Only Amara was a risk. She might sometimes be out of her mind and do something harmful to Edith.

Casey knew that Amara didn't want to hurt Edith. However, being short-sighted and having a dislike for Casey, Amara always hurt Edith intentionally or unintentionally.

Therefore, Casey specially had a talk with Amara, warning her that he would kill her after he came back if she dared to get Edith into danger again.
